Dear Julia, —You will be interested to hear that, we have just got back after a most enjoyable holiday. fYe found holi-day-making fairly expensive, and towards the end found our cash running short. This was rather awkward for me, as I bad made up my mind to replace my old saucepans, and also to purohase a few new table knives and forks, as well as a few other lines in crockery and kitchen utensils, lie had only a few pounds left when we started on my buying expedition, and didn't I get a shock. I went into one store and priced a few articles, and ' the prices were so frightfully high that I came out again without purchasing. I had fully made up my mind do without the goods when I -happened to call in a fc ‘‘The People’s Emporium,” I was quite surprised at the difference in price. The result was that I got my saucepans, and knives and forks and all the other goods I wanted, and picked up quite a lot of other things besides. I am so pleased that X called in therej if .X had not done so I would have been compelled to come home without the goodß I required so badly. I will, write more fully next week. Love to all, from yoora affectionately, Auntie.*
