Sister Janet Marie and
the Little Blind Girl

the klttle DSlU0 UlIl
| Once, in the little town Of Bridge
port, there lived a pretty little CIR
named Mildred. She had beer
taught music since she was two
years old. and had gone to school
since she was three years old.
Now this family was Catholic and
so the father wanted his fair daugh
ter to become q sister.
When she was sixteen years old
she went to the convent and be.
came a sister. she was given the
name of SISTER Janet Marie"
After staying at the convent for
two years, Sister Janet was sent
to Bridgeport as a music teacher.
She had been writing music for her
friends ever since she was ten
years old, but only recently had
anyone else seen any of her compo-
sitions.
During the two years she was at
the convent she had written several
compositions which she had given
to the Bishop as rememberances.
Seeing that they were good, he had
them published. Now she has her
own pieces published.
Many were her pupils, but among
them all, she loved best the little
blind girl who tried SO hard to learn.
Everyone must know that all of
the sisters 60 back to the convent
for the summer and that before
they go they have recital.
Now at the school, Sister Janet
had an orchestra. At the recital
they played several beautiful pieces
At the close of the recital the
mayor, who was present, stood up
and asked who had composed the
music.
When Sister Janet said she had,
the mayor asked her to came to the
city building the next afternoon.
The next afternoon when Sister
Janet arrived at the city building,
she was shown to the mayors
private office. When they were
left alone together, the mayor
opened a drawer and took out
small pin which he gave to Sister
Janet, as he did so, Long have I
waited for the one who should be
worthy of wearing this pin" The
pin was in gold and on it were the
words, FIRST BRIDGEPORT
COMPOSER. Sister Janet was
very proud of her pin and wore it
always.
One day Sister Janet was walking
in the woods with Catherine the
little blind girl. The leaves were
cracking under their feet and a
merry time they were having. All
at once a bird began to sing. Sister
Janet stopped and listened. Other
birds began to sing. Catherine
had stopped also. When the birds
had stopped singing, Sister Janet
started home with Catherine. When
they reached the Sisters house,
Sister Janet composed music that
sounded like birds singing. This
was given to Catherine because she
had been with Sister Janet when
she heard it.
The more Catherine and Sister
Janet were together. the more they
loved one another. When she was
old enough, Catherine also became
Sister. Her Sister name was
Sister Helen Martha"
She was sent to Bridgeport as
assistant music teacher for Sister
Janet, Although Sister Helen
Martha could not see, she could
hear and her pupils got along as
fast as Sister Janet's.
The pupils of both Sisters loved
their teachers very much and tried
hard to please them, although
music was often difficult for them. |

MONUMENTS AND MEMORIALS.

Lafayette Young speaking at a
memorial service held to George D.
Perkins at Sioux City proposed that
Sioux City and Iowa erect a monu-
ment 20 Mr. Perkins memory.
II is a suggestion natural enopgh
from an elderly man for IN the
younger days OF those Of US who are
beginning to turn red upon the tree
Of life q monument was very high
expression of appreciation; but 1t
lacks consideration OF the seeming
distaste common nowadays against
shafts and monuments corlmemor-
attve of public men and publ!cists.
Moreover II we were to erect
monument 10 all who have deserved
recognition by service our public
squares and public parks would very
goon take on the appearance OF
cemeteries.
But there are those, Mr.. Perkins
among them, whose service has
earned lasting memorial and most OF
those would be better pleased, If
they still retain touch with the
things Of earth. by quiet and
modest pledge TO memory.
Nj Young however is right when
he infers that We neglect this public
duty. There are many men whose
public spirit has earned a men,
orial. It might be suggested that a
bronze tablet briefly setting forth
the public service and value to the
community of men who have served
their communities unselfshly and
web and who have been a force In
the material and moral development
OF their cities and states would be
In excellent taste IN court houses
and other public buildings where
they might appropriately bs Asplay-

HER BOY HAD ALWAYS
BEEN WEAK and PUNY
NOW He EATS EVERYTHING IN
SIGHT AND ROMPS WITH
PlAYMATES.

MY four year old boy had been
weak and puny since birth. and had
constipation and indigestion. Moth
Ing did him any good until we tried
Milks Emulsion. Since using It, he
can't get enough. to eat and has out
grown his childhood trouble. He
plays out with the children now. and
he was never able to do that be-
fore."- VIM. Heart, 424 Bundy Ave,
New Castle, Ind.
Weak. ailing children usually start
eating and getting stronger from the
very first bottle Of MilNs Emulsion.
Most children like to take It, because
It really tastes good. A trial costs
nothing.
Anlks Emulsion Is a PLEASANT nu-
tritive food and corrective med-
cine. It restores healthy, natural bow
ell action. promotes appetite and puts
the digestive organs in shape to as
simulate food. 1t helps build up flesh
and strength. and is a powerful aid
in resisting and repairing the effects
Of wasting diseases. Chronic stom-
ach trouble and constipation are
usually relieved in one day.
This is the only solid emulsion
made. and so palatable that 1t Is
eaten with a spoon like ice cream.
No matter how severe your case,
you are urged to try Milks Emul-
sion under this guarantee-Take six
bottles home with you. use 1t accord
ing to directions and II not satisfied
with the results, your money win be
promptly refunded. Price soc and
