and peep into the room where a new 

 life has been born; it matters not if it 

 is the home of a king or the most hum- 

 ble subject in his realm. A woman has 

 been through the valley of shadows. 

 Perhaps we shall see a uniformed nurse 

 with rubber-soled slippers moving about 

 noiselessly; the physician's orders are 

 strict; there is perfect quiet and no con- 

 versation to excite the patient. Loved 

 ones are anxious, but a strict discipline 

 must be maintained. It is then that an- 

 other language must be used, and when 

 the nurse shows the mother perhaps a 

 cradle filled with Sweetheart roses and 

 she reads the card attached, she realizes 

 that loved ones are waiting to share her 

 happiness. What joy it must bring to 

 that heart, already overflowing with 

 happiness! I may be accused of being 

 sentimental, but my object is to bring 

 home to readers how elastic our slo- 

 gan is. Take the humble laborer: He 

 has been away all day at his toil. Has 

 there been a minute of the day that his 

 thoughts have not been in that room 

 with those who are dear to him? He, 

 too, is having his Gethsemane. The 

 world cannot know what is going on in 

 that man's mind; it is too sacred. But 

 quitting time comes at last and he hur- 

 ries home. By the roadside he stops to 

 gather a bunch of wild flowers; perhaps 

 there is no vase in his home, but revci- 

 Pntly he places them in a tumbler, and, 

 ashamed of what he thinks is his own 

 weakness, he carries them to the bed- 

 side of his wife. When he sees the 

 light of appreciation on her face, are

Cooperation is a name of something. 



Cooperating is the name of that something w^hen it 



is doing something. 



Cooperated is the name of that something, after it 



is done. 



"Birds of a feather flock together." 



But it takes more than one feather to feather a flock. 



Or to say it another v^ay — you, ju^ for example, 



believe in cooperation ; but you can't cooperate all 



by yourself. 



Co, besides being short for company, is the Latin 



for with. 



Now, you can't be with something, writhout being 



with it. 



Daddy Pochelon finally succeeded in getting that 



through my head after writing me one thousand'six 



hundred and thirty-three and a half letters. 



He convinced me that the only way to get more 



F. T. D. business was to work ivith (co) more' and 



more F. T. Deers. 



So 1 did. And 1 did. Try it and see.

those two souls not knit closer together, 

 and could anyone convince that man 

 that to "Say It with Flowers" is not 

 the best way in the world to express 

 what he feels? Speech may have failed 

 him, but those flowers carried his mes- 



sage of love home as no words in the 

 English language could have done. 



But these trying days are over and 

 the next is the christening; it may take 

 place in the grand cathedral, where the 

 baptismal font is adorned with the most
