UNCLE JED'S TALK WITH WIDE- AWAKES. Uncie Jed printed a puzzle poem the other day in the Wide Awake depart- ment without saying it was a puzzle or that the first solver of it should re- ceive a pretty book for his ability, but as much he has talked about eyes and no ey not a Wide Awake saw in that little bird poem with twisted bird names a chance to make it right and to prove tkey had good eyes and an active mind.
