"The Queens in the Parlor, Eating
(, Bread and Honey.0

There has been q tremendous fight of
years since we repeated nursery rhymes,
but little incident a day or two ago
brought the above. line to our memory.
In this case, however, the Queen, instead
of being the eater-of the honey, was the
bounteous bestower oft. Avery Queen
of womaniy kindness, thoughtfplaess
and generosity-opr friend Mrs, Ben.
Hatcher. And the Advertiser men. were
the eaters And well the Qheen did her
part, and well the eaters did their part!
Up-she drove and called us out. And
out we went, .beaming and blossoming,
knowing we were about to experience
one OF the graceful deeds that only gen.
tie and benevolent woman can devise.
And she told us to open mysterious
compartment in the rear Of her buggy
her car Of plenty. And weopened! And
we.luggcd into our sanctum heavy bur-
den of golden new honey. And we re-
turned and Iugged in aheavy burden OF
golden new butter. And we returned
yet again, ahd lugged in heavy burden
Of creamy white rolls-only 60 minutes
out of the oven. And we had q delight
full Juggling time of it altogether! And
we all ate-and called in our neighbors,
and they did eat-and thenswe sent a
large residue to our mothers, wives and
tcbildren. And then we all leaned back
in arm chats, and blessed the giver, and
sang There's Rest: for the Weary" d.
