Dear Presbyterian: I am a seven year old
boy. Mr. Ilager tells us how Japanese count up
to five. I have learned the words of Japanese
that mean one, two, three, four, five. Please publish

it when it gets in the paper.

Dear Dolly: I read your letter in The Presbyterian
; and, if you will come to me, I will
be your mother and make you pretty clothes.
I am sending two dollars in my letter for a new
subscription. "Will you forgive me, if I ask you
to send me your golden haired sister, and I will
try to send for you later?

To Our Little Girls:?Dolly's letter in
the paper a few weeks ago was read by
a great many little girls, and our little
friends have been at work getting new
subscribers for us, so that they could
have Dolly come to live with them.
Dolly and her sisters have taken many
trips during these weeks. Some have
taken short trips, but some have had to
travel hnudreds of miles before they
could get to tlie homes of their little
mothers. We have added some new sisi."l
ters to the family too. We have Dollies
withdark brown hair and eyes, with light
brown hair and brown eyes, with light
brown hair and blue eyes, and with golden
hair and brown eyes.
Now we are sure that some of our little
friends, who have not gotten one of
these beautiful dolls, would like to have
one of them, and we suspect that some of
thoeo who have gotten one would like to
have another. j

who was spending two days with them, "but
I never dare to be polite until my algebra is
done."
"What makes you like it so much?" Air. Alarshall
asked, smiling. "Young ladies don't generally
have much taste for algebra."
"Like it!" Jean repeated vehemently; "I
despise it. That's why 1 do it first; if I gave
myself the tiniest margin of excuse, I'd never
get it done. And I may be stupid?I am stupid
in it?but it shan't conquer my morals anyhow."
"I see," the guest replied, rising. "Well,
good luck to it?and you, Miss Jean. Perhaps
you'll like it better after a while."
"Never!" Jean returned emphatically.

which we cannot, answer. Boys, will
you try? We have been sending some

just as many new subscribers as the
girls can. Now the question we want
you to help us answer is this: "What
would a boy like to have as much as a
girl likes a doll?"
Now, boys, just write us and tell us
what you would like to have and we will
see if we can get it for you. Before
sending you the present, we will want
you to find somebody who does not take
the Presbyterian of hte South, and persuade
him to subscribe for it. Get him
to give you two dollars, which you are

write us right away, we will soon decide
what we can give you, and will tell
you about it on this page just, as soon
as possible.
