A BOY COUSIN BELIEVES IN
PLENTY OF SOAP AND WATER.

Dear Aunt Addy: I believe the
line of argument, Cleanliness,
think, Aunt Addy, is just right on
this line: You don't need so much
perfume when you get dirty; what
you need is bar of soap and a pan
of warm water and a good towel.
There is nothing that makes one feel
better than good bath; the perfume
adds an odor that is not material,
and therefore renders the body
unpleasant.
This is a subject I want to see
openly argued by all Cousins: Was
the execution Of Major Andrew just?
I will ask some questions:
Where, and when was General
Henry Harrison born? What caused
his death?
How was the War Of Roses ended?
When did Queen Elizabeth's death
occur?
How many times did King Henry,
of England, marry?
How many Of his wives did he
divorce?
How many of them did he execute?
I will close with good wishes to
Aunt Addy and the Cousins. Truly
yours, BRYANT McELROY, Winder,

much nicer for us boys than calling
up our dogs and going rabbit-hunt-
ing, as some back-Woods boys do. AS
for the girls, we know they have
their minds on higher things. Boys
we should be very kind to our sisters,
especially when they help us work in
the field. We should ever be ready
to go with them anywhere they would
like to go, and should not think of
wanting them to chop wood, draw
water, build fires Or anything of the
kind. We. should ever be ready to
help them in any way we could. And
when father or mother calls us at
morning, we should get up right
then and not just drag around like
the laziness would fall Off of us. And
above all things, we should obey our
parents; for we don't know how soon
they will be taken from us.
We should all remember what the
good Book says in regard to obedi-
ence. It is very much more pleas
ing to father and mother for us to
obey them, for I am sure they
will not tell us anything that will
harm us in the least.
Well, if this escapes the waste
basket, l will come again; age IA.

COUSIN.

Dear Aunt Addy: Will you let
another girl join your happy band
of Cousins? I am fourteen years of
age, and l live in the country and
like it very much. My papa is a
farmer.
[ have written to "The Jeff" once
before, but [ did not see it in print;
| guess it found it's way to the waste
basket. l have been going to school
and am in the fifth grade. We have
a large school, and the teacher is Mr..
Seth McGahee. I like him, he is a
good teacher. How many of you
Cousins like music? l do, but I
can't make much music I can't
play an organ, but not very much. I
like to hear Mr.. Watson speak, but I
haven't heard him speak but once,
and that was at Spread. Papa,
mama, and all of my brothers and
sisters are for him and like him,
they read his papers and books.

country and am sure l like country
life much better than I would city

sisters. We live on a large farm
and papa is going to give me an acre
of land to plant in corn. I like to
go to school very much and think
we should all strive for an educa-
ton very much.
Boys how many of you like to 20
hunting and fishing; l like to very
much, but when the proper time
comes to fish we have so much grass
till | can't go as often as l like; but
any way, | slip off on Saturday even
ing, which is much pleasure to me.
I would like very much to see Aunt
Addy's picture. Don't all you girls
and boys think you would too?
Wonder how many of the Cousins
like to go to Sunday School? l can
only say for myself: I like it fine;
l think it is duty we should all do.
