lines to you and hope this letter viii be in
next Sundays CALL. solved all the puzzles
but the eighth which L could not get. The
NM zla oh n laSt
1 was somewhat disappointed because 1t was
not printed, but l suppose there was no room
or something else was the matter, so won't
say any more about il. 1 shall tell you about
my pet, which is dear little cat. 1t Is black
and white spotted and is very nice. 1t will
eat popcorn and olives and many other things.
AT evening when he thinks it is time for We
children to go to bed he will walk through the Is
honse three or four times and will scold andy
be so impatient, because he wants us to hurry
and go 10 bed so he can go to us. Mamma lets
him stay with us until she wishes to go TO bed
and then she takes him out to the shed where
his little bed is in a basket. Mamma covers
him up and he stays there all night. When
he wants to go out of the house or to come in
he whines, jumps up to the door and tries TO
open il himself. He is only seven months old
and 1 think is very smart. This is all can
write this time, SO shall close, hoping to see
my letter in next Sundays CALL Your little
reader, RETHA WALDAU.
