I am nine years old to-day. I received as a present a card album that will hold 700 cards. We have a large yard, and in it a large tent. I had a birthday party last year, and we had a supper in the tent, at which fifty sat down at one time. I like "Mr. Stubbs's Brother," and am so glad Abner did not die.

Dear Postmistress,—I am a little girl of eleven, living in Massasechem Valley beside a beautiful lake, which affords great pleasure to many. I have three sisters and one brother. We have twelve English Jacobin doves, a little shepherd dog, a lamb, and a kitty for pets. I have taken Harper's Young People ever since it was first published, and I enjoy the stories very much. I think Ninetta's poem was real nice. She is just the age of my sister Ida. I think Toby Tyler has a hard time losing his pets. He must feel very sad and lonesome now Mr. Stubbs's brother is gone, but I hope he will recover him soon.
