IS THERE A SANTA CLAUS

There are some things that cannot be told too often. One of them IS Chas. A. Dana's famous Christmas letter to Virginia O'Hanlan, girl reader of the New York Sun, then edited by MT. Dana. The newspa- per delights in reprinting this, the most noted of all Christmas letters. It was written in December, 1897.
 The Letter.
 Dear Editor-I am years old. Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus. Papa says "lf you see it in the Sun it's so.' Please tell me the truth, is there a Santa Claus?
 Virginia O'Hanlon. 115 West Ninety-fifth Street"
 The Reply
 Virginia, your little friends are all wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of skeptical age. They do not believe except they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be mems or children's are little. In this great universe ot | in his intellect, as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capa' ble of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge.
 Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly az love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they a bound and give to your life it's high est beauty and joy. Alas hoy dreary would the world be if there were no Santa Claus. It would bt as dreary as if there were no Vir , ginias. There would be no child like faith then, no poetry, no TO , nance to make tolerable this eXis . tenee. We should have no enjoy r ment except in sight and sense
 The eternal light with which child
 hood fills the world would be eX
 tinguished.
 ' Not believe in Santa Claus! Yo t might as well not believe in fairies S You might get your papa to hir }. men to watch in all the chimneys o
 Christmas eve to catch Santa Clau! S but even if they did not see Sant ? Claus, coming down., what woul s that prove? Nobody sees Sant l. Claus. But that is no sign ther
 is no Santa Claus. The most rei f things in the world are those ne ] ther children or men can see. Di e you ever see fairies dancing on th
 lawn? Of course not but that is n
 proof they are not there. Nobod o oan conceive Of imaginp all thp wo, s ders that are unseen and unseeab <. in the world.

DRUGGIST PROVES OWN FAITH
 IN REMEDY
Saws Nash's Salve Saved His
 Children's Lives

Naturally with a number of diff ferent remedies in his store, the druggist himself hardly knows which is best. Then when sickness comes to his own family, he asks his GUS toners what to do.
 I. N. Heath is proprietor of a well-stocked drug store at Lake Vil- lage, Arkansas. When his own children developed hard cases of in- fluenza followed by pneumonia, and after other remedies had failed, MT. Heath was advised by customers to try Nash's Group and Pneumonia Salve.
 After using one bottle of this splendid preparation the children were so benefited that his wife now says no other medicine for this purpsoe shall ever come in then | house but Nash's.
 Testimonials of this kind reacf Nash Brothers, the manufacturing druggists nearly every day, in trutf | Nash's Group and Pneumonia Salv' has thousands of boosters becaus' it is such harmless and simple ye very efficient remedy for colds coughs, influenza, croup and pneu monia. Now sold by P. k. Turne Drug Company.

and see what makes the noise in- side, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest men, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived, could tear apart. Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, TO- nance can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernai beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? An, Virginia, in all thls world there is nothing else real and abiding.
 No Santa Claus! Thank God! he lives and he lives forever. A thous- and years from now, Virginia, nay, ten thousand times ten thousand years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood.

THE CROWS NEST


It is about time to call attention
again to the advertising columns Of
local papers. Through these columns
our merchants and producers are try
ing to inform the public what they
have to sell and the prices of the
leaders are generally quoted. At this
time of the year clearance sales are
common and many bargains are in the
market, II the readers of local papers
do not look over the advertisements
they may miss getting real values at
reasonable prices. In paying good
money for advertising the merchant
feels that he is giving out valuable
information for the beenf1t of his Gus.
toners. BY reading his ads the buyer
will have made up his mind just what
he wants when he goes into his place
of business and much time is saved
for both parties. Then there is the
matter OF the getting up of the ads
that Is worth considering both as to
the display and the wording of them
You will find that they are we'll writ,
ten and made as attractive as posi-
BILE. They very often reveal the per
sonality of the individual advertised
II a person only looks over his home
paper for the locals he is missing some
thing IL he does not read the ads and
try to profit by so doing.
