HER HUSBANDS LETTER,

A middle aged woman had a letter
handed to her at the general delivery
i'll the Postoffice yesterday and she sat
down. on "A window sill and read it.
Her interest was intense from the
start, and she spoke up and said:
9 He called me his little darling.
That's good ~ .s..., -,
After reading few lines more she
said:
And he missed my society SO
much !"
Half way down the page she spoke
And he called me his sunbeam
his guardian angel"
She climbed up on the sill little
further, turned the letter over and
mused:
:" And he's lost three pounds of flesh
worrying over my health. He's just Il
dear, loving old darling, that's what
he is!n
She reached the top of the fourth
page and exclaimed
What. going to Flint, eh: -
Further down she growled:
And he met that red-lleaded Wild
ow kernshaw on the ears. ehe I'Il
see about that. He probably did not
tell her he was married ~
She got down TO the "P. S." gIanc-
over couple of lines, and then yelled
right out: s-
Not coming home till next week
Trains showed in! great press of busi-
ness. I'll see whether he isn't COM
ing. Rub, where's the telegraph Of

And she RAN across the street and
sent him dispatch which made the
