It's surely been a lovely spree, we've been as bury as a flea: for Christmas season always brings a lot of entertaining things, with social dates we like to keep—but, gosh, I’ve lost a lot of sleep! We started in a week or two before old Santa Claus was due and night by night we stbod the shock of staying up till one o'clock, with tissue-paper, ribbons, strings, and quite a lot of other things. And every other night or so there was some place we had to fo—some social etunt we had to plan before the holidays began; “Vor then,” the wife explained with care, “there won't be any time to spare.” And after Christmas, night by night, I found the wife was very right; we found so many things to do to keep us up till one bod two, my nightly lack of sleep and rest resembled an endurance st, ‘Today I'm weary, pale and week, no sleepy I can hardly speak; and all I'd really care to do is just to sleep a week or two~in other words, as someone said, ;'I love high lite—but Ob, you bed!” | given full credit for the sense of humor he displayed in his mes- He says—and he does not draw “We now bracket the very poor and the very rich together as the Plainty not the congress of the supreme If, neither the people nor the the judicial branches of the government do it, the bracket must be a purely and We suspect, however, it is the woke of steers to pull a dollar's worth of Harding oats or Harding corn now.

He could never have been there and my what he does about dogs. Why, they carried dispatches over the shell-torn fields where no man could go and live, They dragged wounded men from under the ourtaina of fire and they directed the course of the relief corps to wounded men who could never bave been located without them And yet this writer says they have bo place but among the cave men!
