Although my Christmas Thanks had gone into type, I return to make another heart-felt bow, for the following additional gifts:—
From Bradford Sherman, C. S., and his wife, Mrs. Mattie Sherman, C. S., of Chicago,—Wild Flowers of Colorado, a large, elegantly bound and embellished book, containing twenty-two paintings of the gorgeous flowers of the Occident.
From Mrs. Hannah A. Larminie, C.S., of Chicago,—a book with a sweet, illustrated poem, and a very elegant pocket-handkerchief.
From Mrs. Mattie Williams, C.S.,—a large, fine photograph of her beautiful home in Columbus, Wisconsin. On the piazza are herself and husband; on the grounds in front, her children, with their bicycles.
