I thought I would write and tell you what a sweet, lovely pet I have. It is a baby brother one month old. I am seven. I go to school, and I love to go very much.
Mamma reads to me in Young People, and I am going to have it bound.

We would like to tell Reba H. something that we think quite as odd as peach blossoms in September. On the 9th of October we had nine ripe strawberries brought to us from Columbia County, which grew out on the vines. On October 20 we picked from a vine hanging over the fence in our back yard a small china saucerful of beautiful red raspberries of a delicious flavor, and on the 26th of the same month nine more large ripe ones.
We are three little readers of Young People, who are very anxious to find out who Paul Grayson is.

I send to subscribe to Young People for another year. I like it so much! especially "Old Times in the Colonies."
I live on a farm in this cold State. There is a snow-drift in our yard to-day (October 17) four feet deep.
I raised some early potatoes, and sold them to get money to pay for my paper. I have a nice Berkshire pig to sell. He is a real beauty.
I have a pony named Billy, and he and I have herded cattle part of every day this fall, but we can not to-day, because of the snow-storm.
I have saved all my papers, and mamma is going to put them in a cover for me. I am almost nine years old.
