A nickname is from 6 to 4,
Only this and nothing more.
From to will mean a jest.

Answers to Correspondents and Correct
Solutions.
Dear Quiet Hour Permit me space to
thank Silver King and Augusta Blake for
dedications, and to apologize for not re-
plying before. Various household vicissi.
tudes have conspired to keep me busy and
silent, though interested always in the
Quiet Hour. Perhaps l might mention
few Fire on three sides of the house,
Group, teething, and SO forth. Trinity
must respond with sympathy. "Mr.
Amethyst desires me to say to Silver King
that our babies are not the kind that oblige
every body to walk softly, with husbed
feet" for fear of waking them, being
models, both by birth and training.
