Quentin and n Beehive.

Dearest Archie:
quentin has met with many ad-
ventures this week; in spite of the
fact that he has had a bad cough
which has tended to interrupt the
variety Of his career. He has be-
come greatly interested in bees, and
the other day started down to get
beehive from somewhere, being
accompanied by a mongrel-looking
small boy as to whose name 1 in
qutred. When repeated by Quentin
1t was obviously an Italian name. 1
asked who he was and Quentin re-
sponded: "Oh, his father keeps a
fruit stand" However, they got
their bees all right, and Quentin
TOOK the hive up to a school exhibit.
There some of the bees got out and
were left behind ("Poor homeless
misernbles." as Quentin remarked
OF them). and yesterday they at in
tervals added great zest to life in
the class room. The hive now re-
poses in the garden and Scamp sur

This afternoon Quentin was not
allowed to play ball because of his
cough. so he was keeping the score
when foul tip caught him in the
eye. II was quite bad blow. but
Quentin was very plucky about It
and declined to go in until the game
was finished, an hour or SO later.

John Burroughs and the Flying
Squirrels.


White House. May 10, 1908.
Dearest Archie:
Mother and 1 had great fun at
Pine Knot. Mr.. Burroughs, whom
call Dom John, was with us and
we greatly enjoyed having him. But
one night he fell into great dis
grace! The flying squirrels that
were there last Christmas had
raised a brood. having built a large
nest inside of the room in, which
John Burroughs slept. OF course
they held high carnival at night
time. Mother and / do not mind
them at all. and indeed rather like
to hear them scrambling about, and
then as sequel to a sudden frantic
hight between two of them, hearing
or seeing one little fellow come
plump down to the floor and scuttle
on again to the wall. But one night
they walked up John Burroughs and
he spent a misguided hour hunting
for the nest. and when he found IL
took 1t down and caught two of the
young squirrels and put them in a
basket. The next day under moth
er's direction 1 took them out, get
ting my fingers somewhat bitten in
inc process. and loosed them in our
room, where We had previously put
back the nest. l do not think John
Burroughs profited by his miscon-
duct, because the squirrels were
more active than ever that night
both in his room and ours, the dis
turbance in their family affairs hay-
Ing evidently made them restless!

Little Rock, Nov. Pot has been

$4,000 names may be eliminated.
