We do not understand your question about the bicycle car. Explain it more fully, and we will do our best to answer it.

Dear editor:
I am very much interested about Spain and Cuba and the Philippine Islands, and about the elephants that live in India. I have lately taken your paper, which comes every week. I have read the first paper over and I like it very much.
Yours
truly,
J.S.F.
Many thanks.
Dear editor:
I am very much interested in your little paper. It has a great deal in it for such a little paper. I give it to my teacher. I do not write many letters so far away as you are, as I live on the other side of the Great Lakes. I like most of all to hear about the wars, and hope that Cuba and Greece will win.
I think I had better close now.
Yours
truly,
ALWINA S.
Mankato, Minn.
DEAR ALWINA:
Do not think that you must not write to us because you are far away. For that very reason there must be numbers of things going on around you which would be strange to us, and which we would much like to hear about. Write often, and let the kind post-office show you that you are not so very far away, after all.
Editor.
Dear editor:
Being much interested in your paper, the great round world, with its clever and helpful articles, I write to obtain some information about the “Jingoes.” What does the name mean? Where did it originate, and what have they to do with Cuba?
Your
earnest reader,
Prue.
Tarrytown, N.Y.
DEAR PRUE:
You will find Jingoes and Jingoism described in the article on the passing of the Morgan resolution in this number.
Editor.
Dear editor:
I have read in the great
round world about the little singing mouse
and was very much interested with it.
We have not heard much of the
Cuban war lately, and the first
account of it that you get please put in the
paper.
Yours
truly,
Edmund

DEAR EDMUND:
We will give you the Cuban news whenever there is any to tell. You will find much to interest you about Cuba in this number.
Editor.
