And how she licked it! Over
and over, and over again, till, as the cook
said, she "licked it into life." The little
kitten got well, and became, owing to its
narrow escape, and the love displayed, a
great pet ever afterward.

PLAYING AT HORSES.
The copies and the lessons
Are finished for to-day,
And out the happy children
At "horses" come to play.
Conny, and Frank, and Archie,
With doggie "Trim," are there;
Conny and Frank are harnessed,
And Archie drives the pair.
Away, away they scamper,
Across the breezy park;
And doggie runs beside them
With merry, happy bark.
For breath they pause a minute,
Then off they start again,
For they pretend they're going
To meet papa's down train.

To find these bright flags,
In the marsh you must hunt.

A Zigadenus flower,
Changing color each month.

TROTTY'S CARD HORSES.
This stands
Firm, and strong
Another one
We'll build hereon.
Keep away,
Now we'll see,
If 'twill hold
A number three.
Try another,
One more,
Raise it to
A fourth floor.
