How long do you ?" "Perhaps two or three weeks.

It will depend probably upon how we enjoy ourselves." "Then you will be likely to stay a good while, I think," she returned.
"There! we are at the top of the wheel, and is not the view magnificent ?" They made the circuit a second time, then seeing that very many people were awaiting an opportunity to fill their places in the car, they vacated them and wandered elsewhere about the Fair grounds for a little.
Then Grandma Elsie expressed a desire to visit the building of her native State--Louisiana--and invited all in the party to go with her and dine there as her guests.

All accepted the invitation with apparent pleasure and immediately turned their steps thitherward.
"Where is it ?" someone asked, and Harold answered: "At the northern curve of the horseshoe formed by the State sites around the Fine Art Galleries and just west of the Missouri building.

It is not a long walk." "Ah," exclaimed Grandma Elsie when they caught sight of their destination, "see those trees in front laden with moss from our Southern bayous! The sight almost carries one back to the old days at Viamede." "Yes; that and the foliage generally, which is of the tropical order," remarked her father in reply; "see, the cacti are conspicuous.

And I like the simple style of the building with its galleries and verandas." "And the site is a fine one," remarked the captain, "not far from the cable car entrance and fronting the Art Palace." "Shall we dine first and then look at the exhibits ?" asked Grandma Elsie.
"I want to give you all a real Southern dinner, hoping it may prove agreeable to your palates." "I presume we can stand it for once, mother dear," returned Herbert, and the rest of the party seemed equally willing.
They passed in and were presently regaling themselves with gumbo soup, opossum, and various other dishes peculiar to the part of the country represented by the building and its appurtenances, being served by cooks and waiters directly from the plantations of the river country.
Then, having satisfied their appetites, they spent some time in examining the relics on exhibit in the building.
One of these was a picture of the Madonna by Raphael.
