! joyed, was at home, aud yet in thought was
| with you.

PosTMIsTREss WRITES
c. G. AND LOYAL HOME WORKERS: / am
anxious TO tell you of our fine rains and pronis-
! ing crops. We have had sufficient rainfall from
the 18th of May to the present time for crops
a fine growth this season.
] am OF the sane opinion of the dear sisters
from New York. j think if any school teacher
in our grand State would degrade the old flag
enough to call il nothing but rag he would
not be permitted to wear the honorable name
of teacher very long. The school-room should
glow with true patriotism.

and walked in the direction where he was As
he saw her coming he tried to crawl into his
dog-tent, but IL was SO small that his feet pro-
truded out of one end.
The only way TO dislodge him was to tickle
his feet. which she did until he cried murder
