But when it comes to making a litter, they're at home, let me tell you! Meanwhile, in our State, things are about as bad as they can be. The demoralization among our help is so bad, that we are going to try Co-operative Housekeeping. If that don't succeed, I shall get brother Samuel, who lives in California, to send me two Chinamen, one for cook and chamber-boy, and one as nurse for Melissa.
