the day is over, but am rested again the next morning. If you were here I do not suppose I could work so hard you would scold us about it.

I do not go away from home much and not very many people come here so as usual there is not much to tell you but home news. Mr. MacLean called one afternoon and I had just gone over on 14th St to see about getting milk of some one, missed her. I bought some mape syrup of Miss Smith of the Uni and she brought it out last night, made a little call. Mr. Dales wrapped up a book for me to send to you Saturday. He told me to send it by express. I went to the express office and they wanted $222 for sending it, so I brought it home and will see how much it will cost by mail. I want very much to send it to you for your Christmas present so you may look for it in a week or so. Keep it until Christmas day
