I am making a collection of birds' eggs, and if any correspondent
will send me some plainly marked, I will send some in return. I am
also collecting postmarks, and if any one is doing the same, I
would be happy to exchange.

I would like to exchange postage stamps with Sidney St. W. if he

I am making a collection of pens. I have seventy-seven different
kinds, and if any little boys or girls have any strange or rare
specimens of pens they do not wish to keep, I wish they would
kindly send them to me.

I think YOUNG PEOPLE is a real nice paper for girls and boys.
Whenever it comes I always read all the letters in the Post-office
Box, and I thought I would write too, and tell you about our pet
colt. It follows papa all round, and once it went after him clear
up in town, and into a store. When it was born its mother died, so
papa has to raise it the best way he can. One time he let it run
round for a little exercise, and when he wanted to put it in the
stable, the colt put its fore-feet on the gate and tried to jump
over, but its hind-foot caught, and it turned a comical somersault
in the air.

I would like to exchange pressed leaves with any of the
correspondents of Our Post-office Box.

WILLIE HUGHES,
P. O. Box 301, Greenville, Ohio.

I am always very glad when my HARPER'S YOUNG PEOPLE comes.

I have a little dog named Pompey, and he is a very cunning little
dog. I have had him ever since he was a little puppy. We have
splendid races over the lawn together. Some time I will tell you
more about him. I am nine years old. From your affectionate little
reader,

BLANCHE T.
