CORRESPONDENCE POINTS. Writ* legibly; if you cannot, you should learn to do so. Practice mikes perfect. To write a good hand is an essential accomplishment which every woman should acquire. Answer every note or letter, except such as may be impertinent or insult-1 ing; these are not worthy your notice. Place the postage stamp in a straight, that is. vertical position, in the upper right hand corner of the envelope. It argues great carelessness to put the stamp on in any sort of a fashion.

Bayonne, N. J., June 7.—Prof- William Libby, Jr., of Princeton university, will leave for Albuquerque, N. M., early in July, with a party of six explorers.

The outcroppings of red sandstone project from the face of the walls, making, it almost inaccessible. There are indications of occupancy bv a prehistoric race in the fragments of pottery at the base of the formation.

Eddy, who sent up three large kites, which were maintained some time in the air, although the wind was too light for a satisfactory experiment. Prof. Libby has a mortar and lifeline packed ready for shipment, with which an attempt will be made to fire a line over the tablet in case the wind is too light for the kites. Larger lines will be dragged over and the ascent made in a boatswain’s chair. The table land can be approached on all sides and is surrounded by a plain, but so far it has never been scaled. Some cliff dwellings have been seen along its edges aloft. Mr. Eddy says that the top of the table land can be photographed by means of his mid-air kite camera.
