I am making a collection of birds' eggs, and would like to
exchange with any readers of YOUNG PEOPLE.

I am very much interested in the letters in YOUNG PEOPLE. I would
like to exchange birds' eggs with any of the readers.

My younger sister takes YOUNG PEOPLE, and I like it as well as she
does. I have no pets, but I have a flower garden and a good many
house plants. I would like to exchange flower seeds with any
correspondent of YOUNG PEOPLE. I have sweet-pea, cypress,
rose-moss, dew-plant, and other seeds.

I have read YOUNG PEOPLE ever since it started, and like it very
much. I like "The Moral Pirates" and Jimmy Brown's stories about
Mr. Martin the best.

I have a Chilian, a Greek, and a Portuguese coin which I would
like to exchange with any reader who is collecting foreign coin. I
have a collection of almost two hundred.

I thought you would like a letter from this town, where a great
battle was fought.

I spend many happy hours with the dear YOUNG PEOPLE. I love, most
of all, the little letters, as it seems like talking to little
people.

I am sick in bed, and have been for almost ten weeks. If my cough
would get better, then I would get strong again. I am nine years
old. I can read and write, and play little tunes on the piano. I
fear the other little girls will get ahead of me now.

I wish "Wee Tot," or any of the little readers, would send me some
ocean curiosities or quartz crystals for pressed leaves and ferns
gathered on Round Top. My pet canary died last week.

I have a nice collection of curiosities, and would like to
exchange with any correspondent for sea-shells or other
curiosities. I have iron ore, soft gypsum crystals, stalactites,
stalagmites, pretty pebbles, different kinds of limestone, pressed
ferns, and
