But I have wandered from the Worlds
Fair, and possibly you are glad OF II,
for the papers are infested with Il now
most all the time, but IL is the biggest
thing / over saw, and | shall be sixty
three next frost.
We took a tent and picnic near the
grounds. Quite a number OF the
wealthy people do that way. stand 10
better than your mother does, as was
IN the war and slept many OF a night
under a rhododendron bush and had TO
dress and undress for four years Ia the
presence Of the shocked aud Mortified
moon.
Once / was changing my shirt toward
the close Of the war, for mother had
told me not TO dare 10 return from the
war without doing 90, when General
Lee, man OF good family and general
ly supposed TO have as much real polish
as cry man H. the war, come In where
was In large cotton field and brought
1000 men with him, and / never had
met any OF them before In my life.
That's the way Yankee soldier was
treated time and time again.
But that Is neither here nor there.
Ii was ia Virginia. However, 10 cone
back to the fair. | have spent most OF
the time at the farm machinery egIib-
bit, where / get more animation and
noise for my money than elsewhere.
also love 10 strole through the pictorial
department and wonder what Is behind
the screen that is over big painting
there. Day after day excuse myself
TO mother and go TO the dairy awhile,
and gradually so on around to where
the picture is that has blanket over II.
II was good idear whoever thought
of II, for II brings a good many people
to the gallery that otherwise would not
come.
/ was also much pleased with Eli
Musser's egzibbt. OF buggies and play
turns.
Ell Is a man OF enterprise and general
oncr, as they say here. MsQt 10 schoo
with him.
In the tapestry and rag carpet N.
partment ihere Is good deal that.i
expensive, but pretty we'll wore out,
should say. Our school teacher, Mr..
IltEutIs Nnhb lgu NAuulHNA NH ANW ANAN
IL would take A, y and Q 20 get their
share OF grindstone used of II A paid
two-thirds, Is one-siXth and O had one
sixth charged, but did not pay for Il,
proylded A and Il took turns turning
the qrlndstone and riding on IL with
an old ak, and G per cent interest on
money is at the fair.
He got our d!strlck 10 believe that we
ought 10 send him there "to get new
ldears in school government and rash
ional methods" / met him here With
a big red badge on, and be had shaved
of his John 9. Calhoun Whiskors, that
used 10 bile up over his collar Ike a
mass OF red top busting out through a
track ia the sidewalk and Kind OF giyo
me the impression always that he had
a melt on him like a red Irish setter ex-
cept where be shaved.
Now he l. all dressed up aud has been
shaved IN the Palmer House barber
sbep. where they have silver dollar 10
each SQUARE OF the floor. Since times
Il 40 demenetizcd they have put
Mate glass mirrors on the ceiling 20 as
TO double the volume OF silver coin on
the door. This Is more like Congress
than anything / ever knew barber 70
do.
