It is a Prize in Itself.— I have just 

 seen the Illusteated Home Jouknal, 

 for June, with the Rebus and offer of 

 prizes for its solution. As the paper, at 

 50 cents a year, is a prize in itself for 

 the amount, I take pleasure in enclosing 

 it, and if my answer to the Rebus is 

 correct, you can place me as a contest- 

 ant for the prize. H. E. Laing.
