I would like to exchange curiosities and stuffed birds with any correspondent of Young People.

C. H. Mathias, Ingersoll, Ontario, Canada.


I have taken every number of Young People since it was published, and I think it is just splendid.

I am gathering specimens and curiosities, and would be glad to exchange with any one.

I have a printing-press and a small breech-loading shot-gun that father made for me. I had a cat named Bill, but he is dead. He would jump over my arms, and stand up on his hind-feet and kiss me, and sit up in the corner.

I like the story of "The Moral Pirates" best of all. I and some other boys are planning to go off on a cruise next summer.

I have a lot of foreign stamps which I would like to exchange for Indian arrow-heads or Indian relics. I am eleven years old.
