Two Knights say they collect birds' eggs. Better not, friends. The eggs
belong to the birds. We are aware that naturalists say it does no harm
to extract one egg from a nest. Perhaps not, when the purpose is clearly
for study. But the Table cannot do this thing as a pleasure--a mere
fancy for that sort of a collection. Please do not collect birds' eggs.
Chester Lewis, writing from Cincinnati, sends no street address. Suppose
he writes again. James F. Rodgers will find an account of the Johnson
Impeachment case in any history, Moore's _American Congress_, for
example. The Senate refused to sustain the impeachment, hence one might
say that it thought it unjustifiable. Stanislaus Bloch, 5 Krueza Street,
Warsaw, in Russian Poland, has Russian and Finland stamps to trade, and
says he will answer all letters. Carl Deal: The Order has no gold
badges, but it has been suggested that it provide such.

Is it right to care about one's clothes, and to like to have pretty and
becoming things? Why, of course it is not only right, but a positive
duty to have one's wardrobe in good order, and to wear colors and shapes
which suit one's style and complexion. The girls for whom I write are
old enough to take intelligent interest in their clothes; some of them
may even buy their own materials, and cut and make their every-day
frocks and waists for themselves. Every girl should understand the
principles of dress-making, so that she may know how much stuff needs to
be used in a gown, and regulate for herself the sort of trimming which
will finish her costume appropriately.
