INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENCE.
“An Inquisitive Girl,” who expressed a wish for a “nice girl correspondent in a distant land,” has two answers. Gigia Ricciardi, aged eighteen, Chiatamone, Palazzo Arlotta, Naples, Italy, volunteers to write to her in Italian, French, German, or English. Should “Miss Inquisitive” not accept this offer, our “Faithful Italian Reader” would nevertheless like to correspond with an English girl of the upper classes, who is invited to send her full name, address, and age. Miss Alice Verena Aherne, 712, Walnut Street, Columbia, Lancaster Co. Pa., U. S. America, aged seventeen, will be glad to hear from “Miss Inquisitive,” and observes, “Whether I am nice or not, she will find out.”
Miss François wishes to correct an error in printing her address. It should be Anzin (Nord), France, not Auzier.
“O Mimosa San” has answers from “Highland Lassie” (whom we thank for her enthusiastic letter), Post Office, St. Cyrus, Kincardineshire, Scotland; Miss A. Van der Meersch, 8, Rue de la Reine, Anvers, Belgium; and Mrs. Newman, King Street, Emsworth, Hants. These ladies all collect “view post cards,” and if “O Mimosa San” will send “Highland Lassie” her address, a number shall be forwarded at once.
