happY Thouaht.

Among the devices for helping a
shut-in this seems the cleverest: One
of the wealthy girls In a large town
invited twenty of her girl friends to
an afternoon tea and proposed a plan
which went right to their hearts. She
knew of an elderly woman. bright
cheerful person. who had dearly loved
her kind and was interested In the
outside world. and who had been shut
up in her room through an injury to
her hip. What blessing telephone
would bo to her, and 1t might be put
into her room If each one of the girls
would pledge 10 cents a month. or
course. 1t was done without delay.
The phone was on table at the in
valid's elbow and the girls called her
up and talked to her a little while
every day and told her the news, and
she called up old friends who had
almost forgotten her; and SO 1t was
like perpetual fresh air and sunshine
iu that dull little room. And 1t was
so easily done. One did not have to
be wealthy to do it--only one had to
think. or to be told.
