AN OLD-FASHIONED GRANDMA.
(Helen Pettigrew.)

Oh, have an old fashioned grandma,
Who laughs, and chuckles, and sings.
She keeps peppermint drops in her
pocket,
And cookies. and candies and things.
Her hair is white, soft and wavy,
And sometimes it slips into curl.
] know it was awfully curly
When she was a wee little girl
She wears the prettiest dresses.
Not stylish, but dainty and neat,
With snowy white aprons and ker-
chiefs,
And soft, comfy shoes on her feet.
She sits by the fire in the evening,
And my, how we scamper around!
For she tells us more wonderful stories
Than ever in books have been found!
Sometimes they're all about fairies.
But often her stories are true,
For she tells of the days of her girl
And the things that she used to do
She's little, and quaint, and old-timey,
And she QOeSn dress up very HHt,
But oh, how everyone loves her
This old fashioned grandma of mine!
Dear NJ B. Family:
Some of us are fortunate enough
to remember an oldfashioned grand
mother, whom we never saw without
a cap on, tied with ribbon under her
| chin; the cap being black, with per-
| haps purple ribbon for loops and
strings, and white caps for dress
up" made up tastily. She wore also
| the conventional little plaid shawl
over her shoulders, and we thought
she was old, when in reality, 1--WE are
certain now she was only in middle
age when we first remember her.
They tell us now in fashion maga-
zines and in actual life that there are
no old ladies, and, l might add,
neither old gentlemen-but really it
is the old ladies who are still young.
No covering of the "silver threads
among the gold' with a false
'front.'" no law of fashion which pro-
hibits her wearing a white dress;
she keeps her peppermint drops, or
some fancy substitute, in a candy-boX
which would have been a thing of
beauty to the grandchildren of olden
times.
Now, when any of you read this
weeks poem, | ask you in the words
of the stanzas we used to read in
school when we were young, to east
look behind you"

CANNOT LIVE
WITHOUT Them
Science Discovers That vitamlnes
are Absolutely Essential to Health
FRUIT JUICES A SOURCE OF VITAMIHEs
s'FRUIT-A-TIVES" the wonderful
Fruit Medicine is Rich in Health Giving
Vitamines


Thousands of men and women are
falling off in health and vigor because
the food they eat is lacking in one
element, without which they cannot
keep fit. This element is Vitamine.
Ordinary meatsandf fish donot contain
it. Milk is not rich in it. Manufac-
tured foods have the Vitamines
destroyed in the process of manufac
ture. Some fruit juices are rich in
Vitamines. A careful examination of
experiments conducted by both
British and American authorities
shows that Oranges contain an album
dance of both "B" and &C" Vita
mines andApplescontain relatively
largeamount ofthese vital substances.
Why is itS bat "Fruit-a-tives" "gives
such marvellous results tsinovercoming in
Constipation, Impure Blood, Starved
Nerves and a rundown system?
Because "Fruit-a-tives is true
fruit medicine-the only medicine in
the world made from intensified fruit
juices. "Fruit-a.tives" is rich in the
"B" and &C" Vitamines, derived
from the juices of oranges and apples.
To take "Fruit-a-tives regularly.
is to supply the system with the Vita.
mines which are needed andwhich are
absolutely necessary to health.

Dear NJ B.'s
I'm afraid I've been a shirker since
wrote the Nj. BIS last, but I'm going to
send this and start the new year
right.
Christmas was a busy time this year.
One of my little girls has birthday
December %. so it means extra festiVi-
ties at our house. Then, too. the ones
who usually have helped at our Sunday
school concert and tree have either
moved away or We're unable to help be-
cause of sickness, and that caused ex-
ira work for two or three. But
through it all. l just enjoy the hustle
and hustle, and the sparkle in the chill
dren's eyes
Our village is very quiet but this
winter l have a lending library of over
| nifty books and a magazine library of
about thirty magazines at my house,
| so am never lonely-either some
neighbor calls, or l read when I'm not
| sewing. The days aren't half long
enough Why l sometimes cook eve
| nings, something l never did before
| only when my babies were little and
! had collie.
! want to start this month and have
the "wednesday club (our sewing
club meet with me for an all-day ses'
sion. At West Sullivan the ladies do
this way, and they have such fine times:
they tell me. One Of our members,
Mrs p. who moved to Hallowell last
year. says that up these they have a
sort of ladies' aid convention once
year. They meet at one place from one
county and exchange ideas, etc
I've been wondering why it wouldn't
be beneficial to the clubs for two towns
to meet, when the weather gets warm
er so there won't be fires to leave, and
take samples of their work along, have
a program and picnic dinner.
We were all so glad to see a letter
from "Meb" again. You know she
came from Ashville. l always take her
letter and read it aloud to the club
The Riverview Local Union meets at
East Sullivan, a mile above Ashville, in
January. and we hope to have another
inspiring meeting of Christian En-
deavorers like we had last October at
West Sullivan. l wonder how many of
the NJ. B. column are Christian En-
deavorers?
How I'd like to see a letter in the
column from our sister in Prospect
Harbor. I've forgotten how she signed
her letter-"Fanny" or Susan Blythe
Sea-"
What quantity of snow there is!
1t makes our husbands, who haven't
their frewood all cut, groan, but the
children enjoy digging snow tunnels.
Wishing a Happy New Year, and
&c, olI M u 20
Sincerely
"Phoebe"
