I net retrain Irotn giving it place in

and sincere appreciation is very
highly valued and does much to
make pleasant the editorial pathway,
which we do not mind admitting
confidentially, is not always
strewn with ro?es. We
humbly apologize to otir fair
friend for disobeying her injunction,
and, alter the foreiAhng explanation,
indulge the hope that
she will pardon our presumption:
Dear Mr. Editor:
My father, through negligence,
has not been taking our county
paper, so my brother and myself
have decided to take it together.
We like it so much. I am a girl,
but I like it as well as 1 do the
fashion book. If no one else will
write for The Kkcop.d from this
| quiet little corner I will begin
some time soon. This is lor you
personally, not for publication.
