Of particular interest to young mothers at Nothnagle's homefurnish- ing store is the new. line of baby car riages. The most varied and largest line in town at surprisingly low prices is now opened up and awaiting your inspection.

A visit to this department is worth your while. Every other department, too, at this season of the year in this great store is particularly interesting.

WHY DO FRIENDS
 DROP OFF?

"I never can forget you, dear; l In spirit I am with you st1ll,
 And wander with you through the | fields
 | And walk beside you up the hill.
 Then heaven seemed always very near
 And God was with us day by day.
 Now heaven has passed quite out of sight
 And God has hid His face away
 Have you ever wondered what has become of the host of friends who ] crowded around you along about hol-
 fday times? You were called to your
 telephone a score of times a day by those who seemed very anxious to know how you were. If the wind blew cold they hoped you were not frozen.
 Or if is was overly warm they hoped you were not suffering from the heat.
 What letters they wrote you! They could scarcely pass a day without dropping in to see you.
 They took good care to mention in the course of conversation that theX didn't expect a single thing for Christ mas, but hey couldn't help looking in the shop windows and adniring this or that They really needed some thing useful, but they couldn't help longing for other beautiful things be- sides.
 i You discovered their likes and dis likes. The impulse came to you to grat1fy their longings. How these friends did press you to come and spend the evening with them! You were fairly swamped with invitat1ons. And how they did flatter you about your never making anything but e1e- fgant presents!
 1 After +he holiday reason ie over how Fsuddenly those friends drop from you. It never occurs to them to call you up on the phone, drop you a line or pay a visit. If they chance to- sight you first on the street, you never get the
 opportunity of shaking hands. If you write them a note, asking if it would
 be agreeable for you to spend cer- tain evening with them, they will hur- friedIy write back that they are very sorry but they will be away for the next few weeks. They take pains not reach them.
 i Buying those gifts has been very expensive to- you. It is adding insult No injury when taIebearers- tell you i how dissatisfied they. were with what 1 you sent them and offered it back to the most generous person in the world will register VOW, under such cir cumstances, never to play Santa Claus again to the thank1ess.
 A pretty card should be remem- brance sufficient If they are interest ed in yout only for the gifts they will receive at your expense you are better off without them. Let some one else play Lady Bountifu1 to them. Mer- cenary people are true friends to no one. We cannot do enough for those who love us and have our interest at heart and who will appreciate and prize a trif1e. It is said that .'The Lord loves a cheerful giver.'' But we , have yet to hear of the cheerful re- ceiver who is satisfied with the gift. So-ca11ed friendship which has had to be purchased is far better done with out. True friends do not drop off. With or without money expended they Ffling to you ever with loving devo- tion.

WRITES POEM ON ANNIVERSARY
 OF MISS CROSBY
A Philadelphia Admirer of Blind Poetess Dedicates
 Gem to Her.

March 24th will mark the seth birthday of Fanny Crosby, world be- loved hymn writer and although she has been dead more than a year, there will be general observance of the day among tl2e friends of the late poetess and by the organizations and the churches with which she was af1liat- ed The .violets, favorite flower of Miss Crosby will be generally worn As a token of respect for her mem ory.
 The members of the Daughters of the American Revolution and of the Kings Daughters throughout the state will wear the violet adopted by them several years ago in honor i of their beloved member.
 Mrs. Julia Arlington of this city, sister and only surviving near relative of Miss Crosby has received an origin al poem from Miss Eliza Edmund Hewitt of Philadelphia commemorat- ing the death of the blind hymn writer The poem, which has never before been published, was sent with the m message:
 Among the sad memories that will come to you at this time, you will rejoice, know, in the abundant fruit ,fulness of her earthly life, and the glorious reward into which she has entered,'' E. D. Hewitt. Fanny Crosby had written poems for the Bige1ow & Main Publishing House, mentioned in the poem, for 10 years. Dr. Doane, also mentioned passed away at Christmas. He wrote the music for Blessed Assurance" and many other we'll known hymns.
 President Sankey of the firm was married since the death of pr. Doane, started flor Cuba on his wedding trip but died on the way and was buried at sea. The poem:
