Transcription

Siloam Bath House, Excelsior Springs, Mo. Gentlemen's Department--All White Attendants. We Use Sulpho-Saline Water for Bathing. 9-4-10 Dear Sister & all. Well I felt certain of it, but never mind I am so glad to think that Bertha Baby & Mother are coming with you. Lavern is already saying we will keep the Baby & Howard still talks pigs. Our Live Stock Show & flower panel was a great success. Please excuse this horrid card, but it was all I had. My sister comes to us for a few days visit. E. S. Mrs. John Schweiter Wichita KS R.F.D. #5
