Dear Mrs. Thompson--My sister lost

in the middle of the bed and spreads
her husbands pictures about her. "

tens 10 what they have to say then,
Immediately afterward resumes her
gaze at the bits Of cardboard between
her fingers. We can interest her In
nothing, and she does not sleep at
night, but lies awake and stares at
the wall. II Is a long time until she
will slip Intos the shadow, and mother
and do not know what to do. She
must be reused, or the doctor says
she will not live. Please suggest some
thing which we may do? MYRA.
WHY not purchase some patterns and
bits of pretty white cloth. Then seat
yourself near her and cut out tiny
garments which you attempt to make.
Say to her that it il bad that she has
lost her husband, out that she is grown
and that grown people can better stand
sorrow than young folks. Tell her how
hard it is on baby to be left alone
in the world without a mother or father
to care for it. Say, too, that 1t co'sLF
live without a father better than a
mother Stress a mothers duty to her
baby and how frequently little children
die Lecause of no mother to care for
them. Picture the lonesomeness of q

best of grandmothers and ants can
not bring up child like its own moth
