Der mamma, my two sisters. villa
and Beatrice and 1, my aunt ana
cousin Josephine started to drive up to
the Eldon. After we reached the fair
mamma stopped at the poultry house,
as she had some chickens there on ex-
hibit. After she had fed and watered
them she came back and we drove
down to the hog and sheep barns.
When we got down there mamma dis
covered her watch was gone. We all
went back to the poultry house and
looked all around for 1t. Dinner time
came and we had not yet found the
watch. After dinner mamma and
papa went to the secretary's, Office to
have 1t announced. The secretary
heard them talking before they came
in the door and asked them what it
was they had lest. Mamma told him 1t
was her watch, and he told her to de.
scribe it. She did and he said he had
watch there that an old lady had
brought to him and said she had
found 1t.
It turned out to be mammals watch
and papa hunted up the old lady and
gave her IS. think it was good luck
for mamma that she found her watch
and good luck for the old lady for she
got the SIS.

GOOD LUCK.

Once upon time, as was coming
home from down town, saw little
boy with a big black pocketbook In his
hand. He was trying to find the owner
of the pocketbook and 50 he asked
every lady and girl II it belonged to
them. He asked me If it belonged to
me and if I knew whose 1t was. But I
said lit didn't belong to me. Just then
a lady came running up to the boy and
she examined it. She said 1t was hers
and asked him where he found it, and
he told her. The lady said thank you"
and asked him what he would like to
have for his reward.
The boy said, nothing and started
to go, but the lady opened her pocket
book and gave the boy fifty cents for
his reward, and they departed.
Yours truly,
Mabel Root, aged is.
