I nm at the above pliiee, us you may see, unci liuve just returned from "Artie Springs," where 1 experienced my first "Camp Life" wliieh was a most delightful one.

Our tent, "Wildwood" was pitched in the shelter of tall pine trees, in quiet spot, far removed from the bustle of social activity and the haunts of men. There was no sull'eriiiK from the heat; one night especially, was cold, but the mosquitos are very plentiful und they "performed their part well." Many snakes have been seen und killed. 1 photographed a blacksnake 5 feet in length; it was discovered in tree, near our tent. A lady from Ohio, told me they did not bite, but wound themselves around a person's body and squeezed. 1 told her 1 would rather not be initiated that way.

She enjoyed the joke; now it is your turn. "Artie Springs" are six miles from Philipsburg, and it is a beautiful place. Many persons camp there; they come ami go daily. There were eight young ladies in our camp and from the time of rising until retiring, when we slept on the ground, camp life knew not an idle moment. With best wishes to all, sincerely yours, MiNNirc Dkakiioki t.
