RULES FOR LETTER WRITING.

Have you any unkind thoughts
Do not write them down.
Write no word that giveth pain;
Written words may long remain,
Have you heard some idle tale
Do not write it down.
Gossips may repeat it DER,
Adding to it's bitter store.
Have you any careless jest?
Bury it, and let it rest;
1t may wound some loving breast,
Words of love and tenderness,
Words of truth and kindness,
Words of comfort for the sad,
Words of gladness for the glad,
Words of counsel for the bad
Wisely write them down.
Words, though small, are mighty
things,
Pause before you write them;
Little words may grow and bloom
With bitter breath or sweet perfume;
Pray before you write them.

TWO HARBoRs AUTO co.

The Ford truck opens up a world
of possibilities to the farmer. Just as
the Ford automobile is the all-around
car for business or pleasure and
stands up under the most grueling
service, so the Ford truck has it's
place in the business of the world
and is measuring up to it. The Ford
one-ton truck is now being looked
upon as farm necessity and farm
machine. There are so many ways
in which it fits in on the farm so that
once in use there, the owner wonders
how he ever got along without it.
First of all it is time-saver in the
matter of getting over the roads and
fields, and also in the saving of time
in earring for horses whose places it
fills. A Ford truck is the new money
maker for the farm and in this city
is for sale by the Two Harbors Auto

laying of the cornerstone to your sue

one into new class, it gives him an
ambition and new interest in life. 1t
is regular and systematic saving that
really counts. One dollar deposited
regularly each week with the interest

$1,151, or $572 more than the amount
you deposited. To learn to save is
often the hardest for some people but
at the same time it is the most i'm
portant thing to learn to do. The

tory for the 7. S. postal funds, also
for state funds. and for 20 years has
been recognized as the responsible

OVERCOME SELFISHNESS.

People who fall into the mistake Of
suppoSing that they themselves are
the center of the universe, are likely
to receive a good many jolts. The
more one feels his pulse and takes his
temperature, the more bad feelings he
is likely to have. The more absorbed
in himself he becomes, the less salts
faction he finds in life. Forget your
self Think about other people. Be
interested in their fortunes. Sympa-
thiZe with their trials. When we find
a person whose whole nature is con-
tinually flowing out to others in a
stream of kindness and sympathy and
helpfulness, we have found one who
is happy and contented.

written for The Catholic Bulletin by
DR.. James Henderson,

They gathered round the Saviour,
And they leaned upon His knee
And He bade them they should linger
In the olden Galilee;
He stroked each head and blessed them
AS He sat and smiled thereon
And He said, Such is My Kingdom
Where the blessed all have gone"
o, to see the trusting faces of
Some Judith or some Ruth
With golden ringlets tossing,
Or some Joseph, too, forsooth,
AS He sat and smiled thereon.
While He taught them lovingly
BY that little roadside heaven
In the olden Gallee!

O, surely heavens angels
Were about them, looking on
And with golden harps a-trumming,
Yet, they heard not, never one.
For, the Christ had come among them
To call them round His knee
And, His presence filled the morning
In the holy Galilee.

Could we gather, even now

Old and crippled tho we'll be
But. forever in His presence
Would we dwell in Galilee.
