Doar Fairiel,— • The weather is not a bit nice and there was some rain left after all. I have a very bad cold., so I cannot get out yery much. I went to the Winter Show yesterday though, and had such a good time. I got some nice toys and enjoyed it all very much. I lost my first tooth the other day, and I put it in a glass of water and left it for the Fairies, and they took my tooth away and put one shilling and two pennies in the glass. Weren’t the Fairies good? I am going to put all my teeth that come out in the water, and' then I will have a lot of money. Wo are going fishing to-morTow if it is fine. I have a new fishing line. This is my first time, so I hope I will catch some fish. Dear Fairiel, I will say goodnight now with much love and kisses from your little Elf. ■ TOMMY. .
