THE CHAIN LETTER CRAZE.

The chain letter crank is5 AHu
abroad in the land. The post office here
is constantly receiving such letters adj
dressed to parties out OF town. The
chain letter comes into the office with
one cent stamp ON it. The law re-
quirCs that the post master notify the
party to whom the letter is addressed,
so that such party may send proper
postage. Imagine mans disgust,
after forwarding the necessary postage
for letter here that should have had a
two cent stamp on it instead OF the one
cent stamp it does bcar-imaginc this
man opening the letter when it does
reach him and finding that it is re-
quest that he repeat some jumblcd-up
sort OF prayer for something he never
heard OF ten or dozen times. 1t is
praying. Our practice we commend to
others: chuck the whole thing in the
waste basket and forget it.

A SMALL MATTER.

There are some little matters in life
which are given scant thought; and
yet we are taught that life is made up
OF little things. Each minute has some
thing and each hour plays a part in
the shaping OF life. We live only a
moment at time and that moment
has its effect on the kind OF a lie we
are to live. Hence, it behoovcs us to
best use that moment for our own bet
termcnt. Granted that we do this,
there are yet influences of the exterior
world which make their impress and
effect our lives accordingly. Our home
! is potent factor; the city or town OF
our residence, and the companions of
our daily walk. In the home. circle,
there is one little event OF daily occur
receive consideration. 1t bears great
| ly on the future life OF the child with
/ in that home, and once its meaning is
grasped, much worry and sorrow may
be avoided.
We do not presume to dictate nor
direct as to how children shall be rear
ed nor do we offer plan by which
their lives may be made perfect; we
merely call attention to "small thing
that may make for good, and that is
the manner OF waking a sleeping child.
