Dear Bob -

Mother wants me to tell you that I am not nearly as agreeable as I used to be - that I am cross all the time -

Well I expect I am: but someway I forget - I get up in the morning and think that I will try and not say any thing cross all day - I wish I could be reminded every time that I feel inclined to say any

thing cross - I wonder how it would do to try Majors way of tieing a string around his finger - I will try it - I will tell you if it does any good - At any rate it will make them all tease to know what it is for - How hard it is to be good - and how pleasant - I resolve every little while that I will[underlined] be - but. - O. dear I always fail - I expect the only way is to keep trying Cora
