Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Perhaps you
have forgotten me, but [ a frequent
contributor to the Letter Box two years ago.
Needless to say, l have never lost interest
in it or the many cousins who wrote me.
Talking about ideals, l want a wife who is
respecting. not ugly and not too good
to work. Size, type, style of hair dressing
and color of eyes do not matter, but Id
prefer her no older than myself twenty
years at present. will be twenty Septem-
Der u, and this will hardly get in before
them. Well. that's settled. so l. want to
make an offer to the cousins who like to
read. | have lot of magazines that ]
havei read. Amy Of you who happen to want
some of them can have them by sending
half as many 1-cent stamps as YOU want
vf,,
cents for four, and on. They are small
papers, but the publishers charge from 2Jc
TO 81 a year for them. No. suntie. I'm not
trying to sell them: I want TO give them
away and haven't the postage to send Them
all. There are hundreds of them. quite
enough for all who want them, and the cost
of mailing them would be fierce If I had
to stand it all Well everybody write who
can and I'll answer all I can. Yours.
