To the majority Of persons there is

OF writing letters Of coincidence. and
many shrink from It. Yet those who

Letters Of coincidence should always
be written on white note paper with

for social usage are obsolete. When
penning such q note write legibly. for

Try to express sorrow naturally. Just
as you would talk. and do not endeav.

sen words will adequately carry the
feeling. 1t Is usually most comforting
to the bereaved to hear the lost one
praised. SO always try to put in your
letter some tribute. Recall kindnesses
