I live in the country, and have taken HARPER'S YOUNG PEOPLE for two
or three months, and I like it ever so much, and always read the
letters in it every week. I walk a mile and a quarter to school
every morning, and back home again in the evening. We have a large
shepherd dog named Romeo. He is real playful, and he always goes
out in the fields with me to take walks; and one time when I was
out playing I found three dandelions out in bloom, on the 8th of
January, 1882, and just as bright and fresh-looking as if it were
spring. I have two dolls, named Bertha and Gertrude. I think Jimmy
Brown's stories are real funny, and I hope he will write some more
soon.
This is the first time I have written to HARPER'S YOUNG PEOPLE, so
please publish it, and oblige
