I am taking Young People, and I am delighted with it.
I have two pet cats, and I have some house plants. This summer there were some small insects at work on their roots. I wish some one could tell me what they were.
I am taking music lessons, and like to practice very much.
I have quite a large collection of birds' eggs.

I have three old rabbits and two young ones. I used to have twenty-six, but I sold some and lost some. Rabbits have very interesting habits. Sometimes they sit up on their hind-feet and wash their faces with their fore-feet.
I am trying to make a fresh-water aquarium. I had a fresh-water lobster, two lizards, and some minnows, but they all died. Can you tell me how to take better care of them?

We can not give you any fuller directions than are contained in the papers on aquaria in Young People, Nos. 42 and 43.

I have never written to the Post-office before, but now I wish to say how very much I like this valuable little paper. I only commenced taking it myself with No. 41, but before that I borrowed it from a friend. I can not tell you how much I enjoy it. I believe I liked the story called "Moonshiners" best of all.
I live on the Mississippi River in a very pretty little town.
