Dear NJ. B. Friends:
A Happy New Year to all! l wonder
how many years ago the adjectives
s.Merry'' applied to Christmas and
''Happy" to the in coming year, were first
prefixed to those respective days.
1t may seem that the above poem is not
exactly fitted to the,frst column of 1907,
but New Years is the time not only for
making good resolutions, but it is the
season when the past is..reviewed and the
future anticipated, and it is not alone our
own past but there is the general outlook
of the advancements of science, the record
of history as from year to year it is being
made by the nations of the earth. There
are numberless things which affect society.
There are the results of failure and success,
of investigation and political influence,
All these, and millions of lost opportuni-
ties, of losses and disasters, and in con-
trast are the unnumbered blessings, the
progress in good, the assistance rendered
the suffering, the knowledge gained by
experience.
Now how do we lookIupon all this? The
answer to this question will DE "the world
as it isl to our view. 1t will be gay or
sad, grand or mean, beautiful or dismal,
according to our own outlook, and also
somewhat according to our own expert
ences and surroundings. The sorrowful
cannot look upon the world as CAV, and
the hopeful will not find it all gloomy, so
as we s.took account of stock" just before
we babe 1906 adieu, let US try to take with
us into the New Year the best in thought
and word and action which we garnered
out Of the various changes which came to
us in the last year, and in the record of
the days to come, as we turn the leaf of
each new day and write our individual
history. may each page of the 1855 be that
which we could reread with pleasure, be-
cause we honestly tried to make the world
'sglad" and bright not only for ourselves
but for others.

Christmas membranes please accept my
thanks.

Aunt Emma, the poem at the head of
the column is one you sent.
Dear AUNT Madge:
Aunt Meb wants to hear.fromiUncle Dudley.
viii you please tell her that l am quite well;
have been living on samples of corn meal
cake until I am as fat as IA porpoise. That
cold snap shrank me up considerably; if we
have another one like that think shall den
like bear and suck my paws all winter.
1 am feeling somewhat depressed lately by
having to 'pass under the rod''; for l have
had to part with pet dog that used to amuse
me by performing many amusing tricks that
had taught him. / had him buried beneath
the dropping boughs of Norway spruce, and
his epitaph reads:
Tasso is dead; he is gone to that bourne
From which he never will return;
To think of his virtues, is it not fit;
And all his wrong ways try to forget.
1t is solace to think that, through the
mysterious workings of mind and matter,
he may be permitted to look on. on the
beautiful bay, to listen to the songs of birds
which fly around him, to inhale the fragrant
perfumes of the field, the meadows and the
woodland, and. in short. to live once again,
aau asdius anu loICNcr, MI tHc sHctt IntnOTltS
Of his doghood days on earth.
UNCLE DUDLEY.
am sure you will have many SYM
pathizers in the loss of your faithful dog.
We are glad to hear from you again, Uncle
Dudley.
The third stanza of the following poem
Will remind us of Sister B.
Shelter thrice sweet for those who claim its
care
Its pains and blessings share;
For friend and kinsman, aye azfreside chair.
Bread for dear lips-the lips we love the best;
And for the unsought guest,
Or low or high, portion with the rest
Light for the close-drawn circle cheerful
light;
And, glimpsed through curtains white
A beam for those that traverse the dark night.
Love for the hearts that none can tempt to
roam
And showered on all who come.
Loves overflow of solace: Such is Home

Upon returning to his cell he fumed
and abused Jerome for causing
what be termed an unnecessary de-
lay.
Learning from Mrs. Thaw's own
testimony Il at she and yourg Jack
Barrymore had once been sweet
hearts, Jerome dispatched a trusty
henchman to:the little resort near
Boston, where Barrymore is in re-
tirement, with instructions to draw
from that young man anything of
a derogatory character of which he
possessed the knowledge.
The .henchman obsyed. He pro-
ceeded to the resort, and there, it
is said. put to Barrymore a ques-
tion which cauaed the actor to slap
the 'deputy's face and then grasp
him by the shoulders and -propel
him by aid Of his boot down the
stairs. Also, tits stated, Barry
more requested the deputy between
