AUNT JULIA'S
LETTER BOX
“Help for the Helpless—Kindness to All
Dumb Things”
RULES
No unsigned letters printed.
No letter written on both sides of paper printed.
All letters not s o exceed 150 to 200 words.
Dear Children: I forgot to tell you in my last letter that
Yvonne sent a lovely picture postcard on which, in big letters, is
the word “baiser,” which means a kiss. Now I have something
else to tell you about Yvonne. Os course, we decided that the
Aunt Julia Benevolent Society should adopt an American child this
year, which is right and proper, and I’m so glad you are to have
the dear little girl at the Faith Cottage, but all through your let
ters I felt that lingering sorrow over giving up the little French
■orphan when you knew how sad her plight was, so I am going to
take care of her this coming year—that is, with the help of my
sister and aunt, who have grown like you to feel so keen an inter
est in our little French girl. Os course, my share I want you to
feel is yours, too, for, while I may be sending the money for this
year, your hearts are just as deeply interested as mine, and I am
going to give you news of her just as I have before. I do hope
this news will make you happy, too. Lovingly,
AUNT JULIA.
Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Here
romes a new cousin. I wrote to the letter
box once before, but I failed to see my
letter in print, and I would be real glad to
see this in print if Aunt Julia thinks it
worthy of publication. Say, cousins, do
any of you all love flowers? I am just
simply crazy about them and I have some
real pretty ones, and I am also fond of
reading books. I have read the book of
“Daddy Long Legs,” “In Story Land,”
“The Goose Girl,” “The Heart of High
ways,” “The Grangers’ vWedding.” are my
favorite books. Well, as my letter is get
ting quite long, I will close. Lovingly,
JULIA WEBB.
Elberton. Ga., Route 5, Box 17.
P. S. —Will answer all letters received.
Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: I wonder
tvhat all you cousins are doing for pastime
these hot days. Hope you are all enjoying
life fine these days. I sure am. Well,
cousins, I guess you all hare forgotten me.
I am the lonely sailor boj* that wrote you
all from Hampton Roads, Va., and also
wrote a letter since I was discharged and
have received a few letters (about nine hun
dred in all). I wish I could answer all of
them, but, girls and children, you all can
agree with me that I can’t answer ail of
them, can’t you? I agreed to buy a box
of candy. Well, I did, but not for all, and
you all know that I could not buy 900
boxes of candy. Now, all of you agree
with me. But I am going to give you all
a contest. The one that guesses the near
est to my birthday I am going to give
them a nice box of Norris chocolate candy.
Now I am going to give you* all a fair
chance. Every one just send a postcard
with their answer and address and the one
that guesses it will receive an answer
soon and the prize; my birthday is in
the latter part of the year. I am thinking
of going back in service soon and want you
all to give me a post card shower before
I bid you all good-bye. Let me hear from
every reader of the letter box by return
mail. Hoping you all a long and happy
life I remain, as ever, your true, loving
friend and cousin,
HAMILTON H. HOPKINS.

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: I am a
little boy B>£ years old. I live in Mid
ville, Ga., but I am spending my vacation
with my grandmother, auntie and uncle
down here, in Bellville, Fla. I will be in
the third grade next term. I liked my last
teacher very much. I brought a little
pigeon down here with me. It eats and
sleeps with the chickens and will come
when I call it. My mamma is coming for
me last of next month and we are going up
to Blue Ridge for a while. I brought my
wheel with me and enjoy riding it so much.
I help my auntie in the store. If the
wastebasket doesn’t get this I may write
ugain. Your loving nephew and cousin,

Lake Park, Ga., R. 2.
Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Will you
admit a lonesome girl in to your happy
band of girls and boys. I wonder what
you all are doing these lonesome hot days.
I am not doing anything except tending to
a switchboard. I sure wish some of you
cousins were here with me. Well, I will not
describe myself this time. I am a married
girl and my husband is in the hospital at
Washington. He was wounded in France.
He lias been in the hospital nearly three
years and, Gee, how lonesome I am here
without him. Well, I will close. Would be
glad to hear from any of you cousins.
From your new cousin,
MRS. J. H. HANNAH.
Monroe, N. C., R. 5, Box 100.
Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Will you
admit a set of Virginia twins in your happy
band of boys and girls? We never see any
letters from the “Old Dominion.” Our
cousin takes The Journal, and we anxiously
look for each copy, so we can read Aunt
Julia’s and the cousins’ letters, which we
enjoy very much. We are fifteen years
of age, with blue eyes, dark brown hair
and fair complexion. What do you cousins
do for pastime and amusements? W'e
been hoeing corn, but will soon be through.
For amusement, we kodak, play phonograph
and visit our friends occasionally. 'Wonder
how many sets of twins Aunt Julia’s letter
box consists of. Our mother is dead, and
’we get very lonely, so wquld you cousins
please write us. Hoping to see this in
print, we are, your new cousins,
MARTHA AND MARY STARNES.
Verdi, Scott Co., Va.
P. S.—ls there are any twins in our band
please write us.
Dear Aunt Julia: Will you please ad
mit a little Georgia girl into your happy
band of boys and girls? I live on a farm
of 301 acres, and like country life fine.
Cousins, don’t you think Aunt Julia is do
ing a grand work? I certainly do. Cousins,
what do you all do for pastime? I read
and practice my music lessons. Will de
scribe myself, so don’t faint. Blue eyes,
dark hair, medium complexion. My age
is between 13 and 17. How many of you
would like to see Aunt Julia? I sure
would like to see her. I don’t live very
far from her—-just 29 miles. Cousins, do
you like to go to school? I do for one.
Am sending a dime for you to use as
you see best. Will close as my letter is
getting rather long.
Dear Aunt Junla: Will you admit an
other boy from South Carolina into your
merry circle of cousins? I am nearly 20
years of age, and, like all the other young
folks, am interested in the letter box and
the good work you are doing. I think It is
very kind and thoughtful of you, Aunt
Julia, to care for the litle French orphan,
giving us all an opportunity to help out.
I am inclosing 25 cents toward the fund.
I 4m in the railroad service here in Flor
ence and like my work fine. My occupation
is leverman. I have already told you that
I was nearly 20 years of age, so I will not
give you any further description of myself
this time, but if the cousins will write
to me I’ll describe myself and send my
photo. Very sincerely.

Poisons and Their Remedies
As we all understand the “first
aid” effort in a case of poison it to
enable the system to eject the
poison. Usually emetics are employ
ed. Next, to counteract the serious
effects; third to begin the restoration
of its normal tone. One of my own
babies was once poisoned through
the giving of laudanum by an ig
norant servant nurse. The first thing
we did was to give Ipecac to provoke
vomiting. The dose was so large
that the child’s stomach rejected it
quickly. There are mineral and vege
table acids that are deadly, such as
nitric, carbolic, sulphuric and oxalic
acids. These rapidly corrode the
stomach and re generally fatal.
Such things should be kept under
lock and key by a safe custodian.
There are virulent irritants, like ar
senic, iodine and phosphorus.
Prussic acid, chloroform and opium
belong to the neurotic poisons, pro
ducing delirium, convulsions and
paralysis—and are deadly.
Morphine and alcohol affect the
brain directly; strychinne affects the
spinal cord; antimony and arsenic
the stomach; digitales, they say, af
fects the heart.
Generally a victim is attacked aft
er eating or drinking, and violent
pain is produced in the stomach,
nausea, convulsions purging, de
lerium, great drowsiness, etc., etc.
These are indications of poison. Im
mediate medical aid should be ob
tained.
The use of the stomach pump is
the most reliable means for empty
ing and cleansing the stomach. But
the operation should not be attempt
ed by an ignorant or inexperienced
person. The stomach can very easily
be lacerated when it has already cor
roded by certain poisons before
named. The saftest and easiest, for
the family, is to provide vomiting—
and freely.
Lukewarm water, i n which mus
< as been dissolved is excellent.
Antidotes are necessary to combine
with the poison and procure a harm
less compound.
Oxalic acid cah easily be mistaken
for Epsom salts. Its symptoms are
a burning sensation during swallow
ing and burning pain in the stomach.
If there is no vomiting procured the
patient generally dies from collapse.
The antidote is lime in any form,
chalk, whiting, magnesia, etc.
White of eggs is a useful remedy,
bo much creosote and carbolic acid
are so often in use as disinfectants
that there should be special caution
in the handling. The mouth and lips
are whitened by contact with the
acid. The pupils of the eyes are
contracted, breathing becomes ster
torous, then coma, then death. Oil
can be frely' given and then rapidly
removed by emetics. In a household
where crude potash, caustic soda ano
coarse ammonia are ignorantly swal
lowed there is immediate great pain
in the stomach, also abdominal pain
and suffocation. Death may ensue
from starvation, because oesophagus
is closed by a stricture. I knew a*
young man who drank too much kero
sene, mistaking it for whisky, and the
stricture could never be loosened,
and he died from starvation.
Too much chlorate of potash used
for common sore throat has been
known to kill. Lemons, vinegar and
water, with draughts of salad oil are
good remedies, provided the com
pound can be vomited or quickly
passed through the bowels by a lax
ative. '
Many years ago I copied some of
these facts from Harper’s Bazaar
and pasted them in my scrap book.
Deaths by poisoning are alarming
ly frequent in these latter days. If
a person is determined to suicide, the
quickest and less painful is said to
be drowing.
But bichloride of mercury will do
its work in a few minutes —if it must
be the poison route.
How Little We Know About India
A late bobk written by a well-in
formed traveler says India is as
large ag Europe, with Russia taken
out. In such a large territory the
population is densely crowded —315,-
000,000 —of men, women and chil
dren—three times that of America.
In natural resources it produces
one-third of the world’s supply of
rice, tea, tobacco and cattle; one
fifth of its cotton and one-tenth of
its wheat.
It is full of the world’s choicest
minerals. It producer! in 1917 coal
worth nearly twenty-three millions
of dollars; gold worth half as much
as coal, petroleum worth nearly six
million dollars, manganes, eight mil
lions.
Iron exists in inexhaustible quant
ities, also coal in some proportion.
It is very little understood by
the people on the western hemis
phere. The missionary song about
“India Coral Strand,” has covered the
story for more than a hundred years.
The future of India is a problem
—but its vast mineral resources are
certain to come into early notice.
Fobs With Suits
London has decreed that it Is
smart to wear a fob with the
autumn suits. Black silk watered

jade, agate, or amber is attached !?!

Swagger sticks with odd woolly
dolls tied to them by gaily colored
cords, are another of the latest

Chapter XIV
ROSALIE noted the anxious
note in Nora’s voice, but
forbore to question. “Yes, I
heard you fall,” she said.
“Lie still, Nora. Are you in much
pain?”
“Not so bad —my hip—l think 1
must have twisted it some way. It
always has been easily strained—
but it’s nothing. Can’t I get up,
Rosalie?”
“Just lie still a moment,” Rosalie
beckoned Dr. Finley to one side.
“If she is not badly hurt could
she not be brought back here?” she
asked. “I would much rather, even
if we had to have a nurse.”
“It would be possible, but rather
foolish, of course. Hospital equip
ment is so much more complete.
Anyhow, it would depend on the na
ture of the injury. I will call an
ambulance at once.”
While he was doing this Rosalie
returned to Nora, striving to make
her comfortable with cushions. She
said nothing, but followed the phy
sician with her eyes and, when he
stepped back beside her, asked:
“Am I to be lame? You know, real
ly lame and go on crutches?”
“Oh, I think not,” reassuringly.
"It may be a simple fracture that
will heal quickly. It seems so to
me.”
"I am sorry. I deserve it,” Nora’s
deep eyes, fixed full on his, were
guarantee of her sincerity. The
young neurologist felt a heightened
interest in the case. It was a cu
rious sort of an accident and the
girl had not explained at all. But
it would not do to question now. The
pain was evidently increasing. Her
white lips contracted with the ef
fort to withhold expression.
By the time the ambulance had
arrived, the young doctor had quite
decided to keep a supervision of
the case. Nor was this interest
without a personal touch. It would
have been impossible to come in
contact with Nora’s beauty of face
and form without paying tribute.
And Dr. Findlay was not an in
different person. He admired Rosa
lie greatly, as a decidedly hand
some young woman. Moreover, al
ready a person of successful attain
ment. It Would undoubtedly be a
pleasant place to call, if it could be
ar Hanged to have the injured girl
brought back there.
It was quite easily arranged as
things turned out. The fracture
proved to be quite simple; not much
more than a bad sprain. It would
require several weeks in bed ana
pare of a visiting nurse twice a day.
All these details were settled quick
ly by the influential, authoritative
young doctor.
The next day found Nora in her
own bed at home. She had not
slept and displayed no tendency to
talk until Dr. Findlay called late in
the afternoon.
Rosalie had also planned to be at
home, but a business conference
with certain directors, not to be de
nied, detained her. She chafed with
impatience not at all in accord with
the harmonious principles of the
Higher Life.
Meanwhile Newton Findlay was
bending over Nora who, pushing
back with one nervous hand the er
rant forelock which always seized
opportunity to escape, extended the
other in eager greeting.
“There is something I want to
tell you about my accident. It wor
ries me. I could not sleep. I want
to get it off my mind. Do you
care?”
“Not at all. In fact, that is why I
came. It seemed to me there was
more wrong than that fall. Wrench
ed nerves are worse than wrenched
muscles. Tell me about it.”
His manner was easy and invit
ing. She had to speak to some one
or go mad. The flood-gates opened,
“The reason I was sorry I was
not really lamed w?is because I de
serve that and more. Perhaps Rosa
lie told you—about my husband?”
Dr. Findlay nodded.
“Well, tnere were other things
she may have told you and may not.
Rosalie believes in survival —in
messages and spirits coming back.
I do not —well, not quite. But I
said that about being lame because
I do love dancing and, with Roger
hardly six months dead, I was
dancing by myself when it seemed
to me that he —Robert —had come
behind me and was trying to catch
me in his arms.
“And I was trying to get away—l
don’t know what I was trying to do.
Then the door pulled open. I turn
ed suddenly, and so I fell.
“As I look back it was like a
terrible dream, yet wonderful in a
way. If I could really feel that
Roger was that near me—and yet
not be frightened—■”
CHAPTEE XV
. OCTOR, what is wrong with
•* I ■ me > am 1 10sin * my
I / mind?” Nora’s voice held
a note of terror.
“Now that,” the neurologist’s voice
was sharply contemptuous—it was
not without reason that he had al
ready made a name—“that is the sort
of thing I would not have expected
you to say. You have sh,own ability
to think clearly and speak honestly,
qualities not so general as you may
believe. But I would hate to admit,
in your place, so silly a fear. It is
quite unfounded —if that assurance is
necesary.”
Nora’s strained attitude of mind
and body relaxed gratefully. This
sort of talk she appreciated and
could understand.
If this man knew his business, and
he seemed to, he was the person to
set her right in other ways as well,
perhaps.
“Have you time for me to tell you
something else? I’ll make it short.”
She put the question eagerly, but
with timidity. But Newton Findlay
was quite willing to remain longer.
Nora’s unconsciousnes of. her beauty
and its power was a charm no man
could be expected to withstand. As
she rested there, her soft dark hair
a bit tumbled, her eyes open wells of
truth or shaded by incredibly long
lashes curling backward —well, Nora
was very lovely.
Nora’s expressive glance reached
beyond the doctor to where, through
the open door, she could see the nurse
He drew his chair closer and Nora
spoke in low tones.
“I want to tell you why I cannot'
believe the things that Rosalie and
others do about —survival.”
“Rosalie does not know, at least I
have never told her, about my peo
ple and what I used to see, as a child.
But the things I hear now and what
I know of spiritualistic workings years
ago have so confused me—because of
my husband’s death—that I just—l
just”—
Nora, whose horror it was to be
seen weeping, felt her lips tremble
and fought for self-control. And the
young physician admired her none
the less for her courageous effort at
composure.
She had herself well in hand when
she went on.
' You see. my mother was a medium
and my step-father a hypnotist and,
being in the profession, they had
many others —slate and clair
voyants and materializing mediums —•
come to the house every now and
then. They are usually careful, but
my mother was not. She told me not
to tell anything and she knew I
wouldn’t. I never have, till now.”
“My mother worked with a trum
pet. You talked into it through a
hole in the wall of the other room. I
always stood up high—they had a
shelf made for me, so the voice would
seem to come from up above.”
“You mean that you you actual-
ly impersonated”— Despite hlmselt
Dr. Nexvton found himself a bit em
barrassed. It seemed so grotesque,
this lovely girl and the scene she pic
tured.
“Oh, yes, I was ‘Little Bessie,’ a
’control.’ I did most of mamma’s
seances after awhile.
“Ed Dulany, that is, my step
father, said I was one of the best in
the business.” Incongruous and
wholly unconscious, innocent pride
sounded like a childish echo of that
far-off day in Nora’s voice.
“I know how the slate writers
work. They don’t all do the same, of
course. But do you want me to take
your time to tell you all this?”
“Yes, yes, go on, go on.” Dr. New
ton was making no pretense. He was
deeply interested. Disclosures com
ing this way, so direct —he leaned
forward eagerly.
“The best way to do slate writing
is to push the slate back and forth
across your lap. You can fasten a
pencil end to your knee with a little
clamp if you want to. It is easy to
learn, but it takes a little while. I
could do it. Os course, I just tried
it for fun.
“It is easy to turn the slate inside
out with one hand, and you can read
most of the notes right in your lap.”

MARY MEREDITHS ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME
Am coming to you
Will you please give me the name
and address of some one in Atlanta
that I could apply to for work. I
have a job but my wages will not
support my family of six. I want
to go somewhere to do better. Can
do carpenters work or in fact any
thing to make honest living, so if
you can point me out any one to ap
ply to will thank you very much.
Yours respectfully,
M. W. W.
In a large city like Atlanta
there is always work for car
penters, an dthey receive very
good wages. I can not tell you
just to whom to apply for work,
but you might be able to come
up here for a few days and look
the prospects over. Laborer®
are always in demand. Why
don’t you make it a point to
come here and look for work. I
know there is work going on
here all the time.
Will you send me the address of
a good business college in Atlanta.
I would like to learn a good trade.
Do they teach any one to be a mas
ter mechanic, or does it take a grad
uate to learn that trade? ’ I’m send
ing a salf-addressed envelope for re
ply
Truly.
STM SEARCY.
You might w rite to Southern
Business college here in Atlan
ta, and they will tell you wheth
er you can take a business
course of what you desire. Tech
college teaches everything of the
sort, but I think you would
have to go the three years term,
before learning a trade. There
are automobile garages here
who desire men and they turn
. out some pretty good mechanics.
You might be able to locate with
them, the Ford plant, is a good
one. You could get a job with
them perhaps if you would write
to them.
I a mnot coming to you for advice
about the boys, for I do not go with
them; I am only a school girl. I
wanted to know if you would print
a song in your column for me. The
name of it is “Where the River Shan
non Flows.” I think it is so pretty.
Thanking you in advance.
LILLIAN C. D.
I am sure The Journal Tri-
Weekly would be glad to print
the song in the paper for you if
they could spare the space, but
they need all the space possible
for the necessary things, but you
can get the song by writing to
the Cable Piano company in At
lanta, sheet music department.
Send stamps and money for mail
ing purposes. The song will be
about a quarter a copy.

Owe Their Health To
I Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound overshadowing
indeed is the success of this great medicine. Compared with
it, all other medicines for women’s ills seem to be experiments.
Why is it so successful ? Simply because of its sterling worth-
For over forty years it has had no equal. Women for two
generations have depended upon it with confidence.
Thousands of Their Letters are on our files, which I
prove these statements to be facts, not mere boasting. G
Here Are Two Sample Letters:

Wise Is the Woman Who Insists Upon Having
AS A WOMAN
THINKETH
BY HELEN ROWLAND
(Copyright. 1920. hy The Wheeler Syndi-
ente, Inc.)
THB GIRL V7HO CANNOT DREAM
I LOOK into your sac
wonder! ,
Oh, laughing, straight-brow
ed, clear-sighted, undauntea,
wholesome Daughter of Today.
Going into life, open-eyed!
With strong, sure feet and steady
hand—
Knowing all its glories and Its
pitfalls, its pettiness, and possibili
ties —
Knowing more of life’s realities,
than I do!
I look into your sac wondei
if they are wise, who robbed you of
your foolish girlish dreams, and
brushed the star-dust from your
eyes,
That you might look at FACTS—
and “see life straight”!
I wonder!
What would I take, today, as fair
exchange,
For those young years of faith In
Santa Claus —those starry Christmas
Eves, when high heart beating,
I watched for him through frosted
window-panes—and glimpsed him, in
my visions, fleeing down the path?
And for my faith in fairies,
When, in the long, gold, drowsy
afternoons, I CAUGHT them dancing
in the dappled leaves amid the tree
tops?
And for those long, sweet years,
when I waited for the coming of
Prince Charming,
With visions far too dazzling, to
"come true”!
And for all my other blind illu
sions—
My faith that all mothers are per
fect, and have hearts of angels,
That all fathers are wise, omnis
eent, and kind.
All artists, geniuses.
All poems, born of the poet’s in
spiration—not from his struggles to
buy buns, and baby-shoes!
My faith that LOVE is every wom
an’s portion,
And that gold and fame lie at the
end of every rainbow dream, and
every high endeavor;
That somewhere, somehow, some
day, I shall find
The Perfect Man,
The Perfect Love,
The Perfect Life—and happiness!
And, that, when all these visions
have been followed to the end.
Somewhere, across the Great Di
vide,
There IS a Heaven!
Oh, clear-eyed, sane-hearted, un
dazzled Modern Girl,
I look at you, in envy—yet, I won
der,
If you, with all your wisdom and
philosophy and worldly knowledge t»r
Life’s mysteries and problems as
they are,
Have anything for which I would
exchange one Golden Dream—
One foolish young illusion—
If you have anything, for which
I’d care to barter that radium of
the soul,
That multi-colored prism, through
which only girlhood looks at life—
My young IMAGINATION!
Oh, Daughter of Today, in all your
wisdom,
I bow before you—yet, sigh for
you, a little,
And wonder what they have left
you, in all the world,
To DREAM about!
