Elsie Janis 10 serious:
Write II in lines Of gold within thy heart.
And In thy mind the sterling. words enfoid.
And In misfortune's dreary hour
or fortunes prosperous gale
Twill hav. a holy. cheering power
There's no such word ~ fail.
II. J. Heinz g!ves good advice:
Work every day ~ though you would
live forever. live every day A. though you
expected to die tomorrow.

And wonder how 'twould be
Had Adam not cared more for fruit
IMAM for poster!ty.

And guard her tends ways.
Make gentle skies above her

And keep well In Thy sight
Her happy feet. and send her
Inc KISS or sleep al night!
John D.. Archiboid writes a~uthorita-
lively on Trusts:
There's the fool trust and the school trust.
The beetle and the ny;
There. the poodle trust and the noodle
Tn. pudding and the pie.
There the cat trust and the rat trust.
The bathtub and the switch;
There's the hot air. and commiss!on
trust,
Ad nauseam. d itoh.
Now. ! could mention many more,
But In mercy l refrain
From wounding your poor hearts too sore
And starting salty rain.
But ere ! close the record
Ana escape far down the hall.

Mrs. Vernon Castle writes verses abou
"My Jewels:
There are goldfish that glitter and shine In
And swim round and round from morning
In a crystal bowl like q bubble In air.
And they. Dear child, make my world
There's a bird that hangs In the window.
In a little cage all painted blue,
And he ch!rps and sings, and II he were
gone
Ny world. dear child, would seem torlorn.

Just a bit of your time
For beneicent purposes spent.

And help nurse the many sick babies,

For all who refuse would be Gabys.
