Besides the chickens, we have several other additions to the family— two calves, a colt, and a penful of funny little pigs. You would be amused to see me hold a squealing pig in my arms, while Helen feels it al over, and asks countless questions—questions not easy to answer either. After seeing the chicken come out of the egg, she asked: "Did baby pig grow in egg? Where are many shells?" Helen's head measures twenty and one-half inches, and mine measures twenty-one and one-half inches. You see, I'm only one inch ahead! June 12, 1887.
The weather continues hot. Helen is about the same—pale and thin; but you mustn't think she is really ill . I am sure the heat, and not the natural, beautiful activity of her mind, is responsible for her condition.
