Dear Cousins: Twilight comes to me drear ily now, drearily although the winters snow, vanishing leaves all the violets blue; yet I find a solace in writing to, and reading the letters of the L. B., for the letters are like sweet strains of music, floating softly to a lonely mind. Taking my little white sun-bonnet in hand, I often stroll ’neath the old elm trees, caioling a snatch of song, as I step from rock to rock, o’er the rippling brooklets, dropping tiny pebbles in its rushing waters, I watch them glide swiftly away, as do our years, when we enter inti eternity. Are we prepar ing? I linger, till the bright jewels of heaven twinkle as if to remind me of the hour. (Now “R.” do not “bob up serenely,” and think (as in case of “Chok Gazelle,”) it improper for a girl to walk along at twilight I was only a few yards from the house). Woy “Zacquelina,” child! green eyes? Come now, it couldn’t be. “Disappointment,” accept a kind word of welcome from me. “Mayhaps, God in loving kindness, Seeking e’er to lessen pain, Will sometime in tender mercy, Give you back her love again.” Ca’la Lily, won’t you come again? Vixen, the last accounts of your “Wander ing Boy” were: “His fair young face was flushed with wine, Wine fired his orbs of Hue, And with a trembling, feverish hand, He grasped the billiard cue." Call him back to love and thre. Dearie, I shall answer your sweet little mis sive real soon, for £ cannot help loving thee. I can imagine a peculiar smiie flit o’er Grey Eyes placid countenance when he reads one of the above verses. With love immeasurable to yon, Aunt Judy, I am, Fondly, Dream.

I have been an admirer of the Boys and Girls’ Department for some time, and would have asktd entrance but for fear of that dreaded vaste basket. What has become of Monk? I airree with you, Anna Greer—I think Bash ful Bill has the wrong nom. I enjoyed the last letter of Left splendidly. I am in hopes he will come often. For fear of the waste-basket, I will close for this time. Aunt Judy, will you let some of the cousins coriespond with a Town Tack? March 10th. MISSOURI. On the 27th cf March Deputy' Uni ted States Marshal AV’heeler, of St. Lou is, raided a crooked whiskey ranche about twomiies from New Malle Peter Niiine, an old offender, 70 years of age. was ar rested, in a false cel lar was foand eighty gallons of fine old v whiskey and a worm, tubs, furnace, &c., for the manufacture of the “Mountain Dew.” Niling has been arrested twice before, and was released the first time on the plea of ignorance of the law. The second time on failure of ev idence, and it looks as if death will save him this time. The “tip” was given by a co-labor er, who asked $2,000 for his poiRter, but re ceived only enough to draw the necessary in formation out of him.

How delighted I should be if Left’s charming voice would say, “Welcome, thrice welcome.” Now if he don’t, and I’m the one that’s “left,” how very disappointed I shall be. Would he think me very impertinent to ask him to write to me? If not, I’d be delighted to receive one of his charming epistles. I'm “dead gone” on Taw. If I were a boy how I would make love to her. Was ever mortal so sweet as Bonnie Sweet Bessie? Monk is a second Cicero, his oratorical pro ductions are really wonderful. Now don’t you all think so? Bashful Billy has w-n my heart and bacd(?) by his recent production, “Letter Box Cake Recipe.” Girls, that boy won’t live long, he is entirely too smart. Nellie Gilmore, I believe, is a regular Ar kansas girl. Well, Nell, let’s shake, for I’m away off here in the “Hoosier State” myself, and would like to know that I am not ail alone.
