“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.
“LOVER OF LITERATURE,” aged sixteen, who does not give her address,
would like to correspond with either P. or H. Pierson. She is not very
proficient in the French language, but wishes to become so.
MISS ELSIE HIGHTON, Brigham, Keswick, Cumberland, would like to
correspond with a French girl of sixteen or seventeen, each to write in
the language of the other. Miss Highton is a pupil teacher; she writes
a neat and interesting letter.
GRETE FROMBERG, Kurfürstenstrasse 132, Berlin, a German girl, would
like to correspond with an English girl of good family, who takes great
interest in music or painting, about sixteen or seventeen years of age;
each writing in the language of the other, or both in English.
WHITE ASTER.—An English girl of fifteen would like to correspond in
English with an Italian girl about her own age, or a year or two older.
KATE M. BUTTIFANT, 49, Minet Avenue, Harlesden, London, N.W., aged
fourteen and a half, desires to correspond with a well-educated French
girl of about the same age.
LAURA would like to correspond with a French, Dutch, or Russian girl,
over twenty years of age, in English or in French.
MARGARET M. S. CATTON, aged sixteen, would like to correspond with a
French girl about the same age, or a little older. Address, Belmont,
Honolulu, Hawaiian Island, viâ San Francisco.
UNE PETITE JERSIASE (17) has the same wish, but gives no detailed
address.
ETHEL G. CARELESS, Stream Vale, Clonmel, Co. Tipperary, Ireland (an
English girl, aged seventeen), would like to correspond with Miss
Valentine Massaria.
