LOUISE TO CLARA.

DEAREST CLARA: Your. very in
teresting letter was received and read
with pleasure. had no idea that you
were out of town. suppose that your
pleasure is unlimited, but | know the
cause of your absence. | was intro
duced to Mrs. Register B. X. =. last
Tuesday. She is a lady whom | have
always been anxious to meet, and the
more she talks the more l admire her
OF course you heard that the Senator's
brother has left town, to be gone sew
eral weeks. lie called on me before
he took his departure for the Great
West. Is it true that he will go off
next fall?
Now, Lou, You will never inform
me of what is going on in the circle.
Mrs. General w. is jolly lady; will
be pleased if You will meet her.
| called on Flora last Saturday, and
had pleasant time. While there
news came that II. J. had been dropped
from the school board. You know
that l am glad. He never would let
the poor school marms have any rest
There was an old grudge he had against
our dear old friend NJ. 4. S. c. 1t is
hoped that the new board will see that
she is cared Tor. You have no idea
what fun the girls had over his defeat.
We had a picnic" Excuse the slang;
but really, L am SO happy | don't know
how to express myself. He will know
how to behave himself now. Harry
will make good trfstee. Johns res
ignation was not accepted. l wonder
how Harry j feels over it? He told
John that he was all right, and the
powers that be could not afford to re-
move him.
Casino and dear Cousin Milt are de-
jected and outdone. The most anus
ing thing was the combat. 1t remind
ed me of the mouse and lion. of
course YOU have often heard of the
tale-"the mice swallowed the lions"
l have sent my congratulations to
Judge Edmonds. There will not be
any cause for us to bow in silence to
"Cassino Bill" Oh. how we feared
that "monstrosity'-that is what | call
hateful things.
l am an applicant for the High
School. | advise you to put in for the
Normal School. That High School has
been a disgrace to our public school
system. What George needs is little
more moral courage. Oh! if / were
only man. / would show Superin-
tendent w. something. Men are so
deceiving l have been wishing for
the day to come so l could speak
good word for E. +. NJ; she is an ex-
cellent teacher, and if justice is done
her, she ought to be given an eighth
grade.
Could tell you a great deal more, but
you are too selfish. II you will meet
me at the music on Saturday / will tell
yon ALL
What was told you concerning II.
is true. He is infatuated with Miss
g.: but l fear that it is too late. She
is now enjoying herself at Bordentown.
Dear Alice was at church Sunday.
ID. H. has taken Charles place. There
is no doubt that his object is to .'sooth'
her.
The dudes were at the house last
evening. You have no idea how they
worried me. What do they know
about Shakespeare? They attempted
to tell me something about King Rich
ard the Hunchback. but got fearfully
mixed.
/ had pleasant chat with Harry
w. B. He never fails, and his judg-
ment is good. He always cheers
lonesome heart and sick mind. l
have been feeling good ever since he
brought me the news of HIS defeat.
You see that 1 will keep chewing on
that. There is novelty about the
matter that you must know.
The girls have gone to Harpers
Ferry. where l shall 60 in few days.
A. p. 4. and Josie don't seem to
agree now. She is sweet girl, and 1
had no doubt but that union between
the two dear creatures would be con-
summated.
don't understand our friends B.
and c. H.. Married men should know
