KIT CURIOUS. 15

 

Kit Curious, thinking, I suppose,
that I could turn to a good account
the entertaining knowledge I might
get hold of, by making a sort of hash
or minced meat of it, and serving it
up to my young friends, has been wri- .
ting me some letters about strange,
and curious, and wonderful things; and
that is the reason why I talk about his
letter bag. Now, my dear young friend,
I am going to give you some of the
contents of those letters, altering them
a little, a very little, as I go along,
whenever I come across any thing
which I think needs some pruning
