less intrinsic value.
Reminder Calendar.
A daily reminder can be made in the
form of calendar. To make It fulI OF
personal interest, buy calendar with
good sized numerals. Cut each day
apart from the other numbers, being
careful to cut exactly on the lines
printed on the monthly pages. Buy
pads of paper and mount each date on
a separate sheet, tearing of the sheets
as this is done. The pads may all be
white or Of any chosen color, or each
month can be mounted on a diner
entity colored pad. On the space left
below the numeral write some quota
ton that is a favorite OF yours. or
which you know Is a favorite OF the
person for whom the calendar Is made.
Intersperse these copied quotations
with references to events that have
been enjoyed together. On such dates
have just the original remark. The
more original sentences that you can
write, either on special anniversaries
enjoyed together or on any dates. the
more enjoyable will the calendar
prove. Such an individual calendar Is
a work of love, and it should be COM
menced Immediately, SO that your
mind can be on the alert to find just
the quotations you want to include.
A book of quotations from different
authors will be found very helpful.
These books are available at every
library, even in school libraries.
To Make Calendar.
When each date has its line written
below, make eyelets with an eyelet
cutter and tie the sheets together and
also to a piece Of extra heavy card
board such as the usual daily calen-
dars are mounted on. This cardboard
mount can be of a dark tone with
bands Of color painted all about the
edges as a border. or the cardboard
can be covered with some handsome
Japanese paper before the pad sheets
are fastened to it. Make eyelets In
the top Of the cardboard and run a
heavy silk cord in them to hang the
calendar up by.
Monthly Reminder.
A daily reminder that is much less
work is made by mounting each
months sheet of dates on cardboard
or fancy paper and writing one verse
or quotation or personal line as a
heading or a footnOte on each months
page. Fasten the pages together with
silk cord run through eyelets.
Magazines and Stories.
A magazine is a 'constant.reminder"
gift. bringing you to remembrance
either every week or every month, &C.
cording to the magazine. AS the pages
are sure to prove interesting, the mag
azine gift is a favorite. Another gift
that is unique and on this order costs
very little, but proves fascinating.
From some old magazines or newspa-
pers pick out a serial story. Mount
the columns on cardboard or on at
tractive paper of any size you prefer
and send one installment each week.
This can be kept up during the month
or during a year by starting a new
serial story as soon as the last was
done. The installments should be sent
with the same regularity as a maga-
zine.
Flowers Show Thought.
Flowers are exquisite recurrent re-
minders of your thoughtfulness. It Is
possible to send an order, as Is some
times done, to some local florist for a
bouquet to be sent the friend every
week or month. Florists make special
terms that are not high for such gift
bouquets.

should like to ask a question OF
the clergy and processing Cnristians
generally and give them something 70
think about, II they ever do think.
Why did Jesus Christ not compel
the adoption of His teachings and en-
force them on humanity for It's good,
as He certainly had the power to 90,
II we may Judge by the miracles He
performed, far beyond the power any
government has to enforce its laws?
Answer can assure my some
what militant correspondent that the
clergy and their congregations nave
lucid intervals. They may not dweii
on the remotest heights Of serene ana
philosophic contemplation which ne
evidently occupies. But though faint
they are still pursuing.
Strangely enough, the question here
propounded does not display a pla'
tonic breadth Of mind. On the con-
trary. to speak plainly. it Is rather
puerile. So long as man Is being
Of free will, even to suppose he can
be compelled to accept a religion
of love and service argues an in
tellectual weakness, which I sincerely
trust Is not constitutional. Prob.
ably. like Homer, my correspondent
mods occasionally.
Let him try to compel the love and
loyalty Of his nearest and dearest
ones. guarantee that the attempt
will convince him Of the folly of his
venture and also OF the wisdom
Of our Lords methods. There is no
stronger proof Of His confidence in
the present values and ultimate VIC
tory of His message than His abso-
lutte rejection of the means the ques-
toner advocates.

Neither Peter Rabbit nor his cousin,

Buster Bear when he surprised them

he was too fat to catch them. Even
had he not been fat they would have
felt that they could keep out of his

simply hoped off a very short dis

most impudent in the way he talked
to Buster Bear.
