up Why from John she cried happily She and her husband had a beauti ful time that day because of that let ter They pored over the closely written sheets John told them all about his work about every little detail he would be of interest and he ended with a tender and lov ing message to them both His father and mother were crying when they had finished the letter and laid it carefully away among her treasures as something infinitely precious to be read again and again The postman stopped again the next day It was another letter and from Charles this time who with all his keenness had a loving heart i R Mother On a foggy Sunday in May of the year the steamship Senator was trying to make her way among the Aleutian Islands She wished to reach Dutch Harbor to land a steer age passenger an old

it Yes my youngest boy oh Im so glad to hear from him She hurried breathlessly up the path She was anxious to reach her neighbors husbands side and read that precious letter for she remembered how hard Frank had worked on the farm to make them all comfortable Hear hoy she murmured her lips quiver ing a little When she opened It a slip blue paper fell on her Tap Dear mother and father Frank began I send you herewith a check for one hundred dollars It occurs to me that perhaps the house needs painting or the fence fixed up Use it in any way you see fit Then he went on to them of his wife
