Of the placid strea mbecoimng turbul-

sweet nothings" are penned often
turn out to be anything but sweet in
the end, And the man who said,

might have added; Think twice as
long before you write once Ten
declarations by word of mouth do not
cost half as much trouble as a line n
a lawyers hand.
Beautiful letters are the joys of ex-

You and I and all of us must write
letters, but when people prove unkind
the letter that never came" is a
blessing if it were but known
If We would but stop and read over
carefully every letter we send, the
letter that was written and the letter
that was sent would be two entirely
different propositions.
