cal questions and answers in the childrens’ col

I have an organ, and while away once a day a
pleasant hour. Who does not feel inspired by the

1 must tell the cousins about a pet of mine which
has seine peculiar traits, it is a white Leghorn
hen, four years old, ami has laid an egg every day
for throe weeks in each month of the year, for
nearly four years; but how funny. She walks in
every morning nt the usual hour (during the lay
ing period), selects the bed on which one particu
lar doll with an egg beside it is lying. The doll
must be there or she does not lay. For three years
she has faithfully deposited her egg in this
manner.
Brewton is a very progressive and enterprising
town, containing two thousand five hundred in
habitants. It has several large churches, one fine
seminary of learning, besides many select private
schools. A few years ago it was scourged by yel
low fever brought here from Pensacola, Fla. I,
too, fell a victim, but by being carried into a pure
atmosphere, with the best medical aid and careful
nursing, I am hero to "tell the tale.”
TV ho of the Cousins will visil the World’s Fair?
What, has become of Aunt Susie’s talented and
interesting relative, or friend, Cuyler? 1 certainly

a promise to do better.
