!. A Family Letter.

Dear Brother:-I am we'll. My
mother-in- law is comfortable. She
is getting older each day. I am
following your advice and taking
good care of my health, for, as
you say, it is my duty to keep
mind and body in good trim
against the time when mother-in-
law leaves us. When that occurs
[ will have to look after her mon
ey, thought that makes my
bosom palp.
In your last letter you said you
have baby. Well, cheer up
brother, accidents proverbially
happen in the best regulated fam
lilies. What you. tell me, however,
about it's melodiousa, voice and
your nightly pedestrian exercise
in the dark makes me think that
your life just now must be about
as exhilarating as room full of
smoke. [ congratulate you. So
the wife throws things at you,
does she? [ hardly know how to
advise you. Hold the kid in
front of you and let him stop the
missiles for change. It mayo
serve to entertain him and perhaps
stop his singing. The very poor
est people have babies, so l take
it for granted they are not worth
much.
You might give your wife some
dynamite soup when you leave in
the morning, and if she flies up
during the day you will cease to
