I have been recommending your
paper and Magazine, but am con
fronted with the proposition that you
canvassed Georgia in the interest of
Taft at the last election. I would
like to be, if possible, put in posses
sion of facts that will enable me to
answer these accusations. There are
so many misrepresentations that I
never believe anything until I get it
straight. Very truly yours,

HE HAS SEEN HALLEY’S COMET
TWICE.
Dear Sir:—lt was a beautiful star
light night, I ever shall remember,
seventy-five years ago, that I first
beheld the grand celestial visitor,
Halley’s comet, and once again, after
these long years, it has been my
good fortune to behold it again, now
that I am nearly eighty-four years
old. I well remember the falling of
the stars in 1833, and the consterna
tion they produced. I was then liv
ing in Greensboro, my old Alabama
home. I have a sister still living
there, Mrs. Eliza Stunstall, now 90
years old, who remembers these
wonderful occurrences in the long,
long ago.

APPRECIATION FROM A FLORIDA
READER.
Dear Mr. Watson:—l am a reader
of your Magazine, and 1 must say
that I derive a lot of pleasure from
reading both Magazine and paper.
I have enjoyed your pieces on
Foreign Missions so much, and can
not see how any fair-minded man
can see other than as you show. I
am doing all that I can to enlarge
your subscription list to the Jeffs.
With best regards to you and the
Jeffs, very truly yours,
