The boy who answered my letter, and sent me a stamp from the Cape of Good Hope, did not send me his address, and I do not know how to find him.

Little correspondents who are as careless as the boy referred to, will wonder why they receive no equivalent for what they send. You should always write your full address in every letter you send, and to every person.
The following exchanges are offered by correspondents:
Soil and sand from Cayuga Lake, Pennsylvania iron ore, petrified wood, white gypsum, and white coral, for red coral, or other than Pennsylvania and Lake Superior iron ores, or for insects and curiosities.
Please tell me if I may join the Young People's Natural History Society alone, for I can not form any society here. I am thirteen years old.
Do American cuckoos lay eggs in other birds' nests? If not, please describe nests and eggs for me.
H. L. Willard, Cayuga, Cayuga Co., N. Y.
Join it by yourself, of course, and write us a letter whenever you have anything worth telling.
