DEAR ST. NICHOLAS: I had pigeons at the Woodbury Fair both this
year and last, and took the first premiums for best display:
another little fellow, about my age, had four when I had six, and
had eight when I had nine; how many had I better take next year?
You are interested in this question, for the two dollars premium
helps pay for my ST. NICHOLAS, and I don't want to be without
_that_. I take the "Scattered Seeds," but like ST. NICHOLAS better.
Please stop sending my magazine to Wm. E. _Grant_. I am no relation
to General Grant, but am a Democrat, and for General McClellan. I
am nine years of age.--Your constant reader,
WILLIE E. GAUNT.
You have done so well already, Willie, that we think you can best
answer your own question; but we should take _all_ of our _best_
pigeons.

Will ST. NICHOLAS please tell "Sidonie" if the "trade dollar" is
made entirely of silver?
It is not.
