my sister is a fine looking girl
and she knows it. She simply does
all she can to make young fellows fall
in love with her and spend their
money on her, and she drops them as
hard as she can. have talked this
over and over with Sis, but she only
laughs. What can you says that will
do her any good?" If you would come
and see me in private l could tell
you some things that would make you
even more uneasy that you are now.
She has the symptoms of a disease
that always works havoc sooner or
later in the afflicted one. Any young
fellow has had something good hap
pen him when he disconnects from
case like Sis. The time is sure to
come when some personal and kindly
friend of hers will be corresponding
with the Superintendent of some Chill
dren's Home Finding society with an
idea of keeping matters as far in the
dark as possible. The eyes of thief
look every way and when a certain
thing is in girl, it is only the matter
of time. You do right when you coax
and shame her, and fear the outcome.
Il want to get in with some church
land build up good social standing,
which is the best church to mingle
WITH" 1t is a good thing to drill with
church people if you can. Notwith-
standing there is much criticism of
the church folks. yet after all, we all
must admit that there is really the
best society. l would not know which
bunch" would suit you best. The
Presbyte-;ans are usually the digni6ed
set, and bear down harder on educa-
ton and clothes, and want but little
laughter around their services, yet af-
ter all they are congenial. The Meth
odists have the reputation of being the
warmest hearted tribe and are more
spontaneous and combustible with
their hearts, usually say more about
their religion and make stronger
point of their experience" The Bap-
fists are great folks for the New Life
although unlike the Methodists, they
are willing to have the New Life come
slowly But they want to see it come.
With the Baptisfs the question is not
so much did it all come at once"
as did it come at all" A good dream
or a splendid impression or a likely
decision. all count for pure gold, and
when mixed with strong determine
ton, get a good place in the category
of their church life. The Christians

so there you are. God said this, and
we have it done, what are you going
to say about it? God hath said that if
we would say certain few words
with our mouths, it will be taken at
the portals of Heaven, and we have
said those words, what else is there
on that particular point? This it is
on all other points. They select from
, the entire scripture all the logical
: features appertaining to a plan of sal
t walton outlined by their forefathers
; and follow it strictly and base their

word" tells them to do. After all
there is but little difference between
