WHEN BABY BEAR
WENT BERRYING
One bright sunny day in July, mama
bear took her two baby bears out to
pick blackberries- Each had a little
basket tied about bis neck to put the
berries in.
The berries tasted so good that they
did not mind the prickly briars that
stuck into their soft paws.
On the way, one of the little bears
said to his mama, I am not a baby
bear any longer. I am a big bear. I
want to pick my berries all alone."
And away he ran.
This wilful bear filled his basket, and
sat by the roadside to eat his berries.
A sly black spider let itself down
from a branch and bit the bear on the
ear. He was so greedy eating that he
just put up his paw and brushed it
away.
Soon the spider let itself down again,
this time biting him on the tip of his
nose. The little bear jumped up quick
ly, upsetting his basket of berries and
crying with pain. He ran along the
hot, dusty road, rubbing the stinging
bite on his nose, calling Mama, mama,
mama,"
At last he spied her sitting in#a cool,
shady corner of the high stone hedge,
with her good baby bear, eating berries.
He ran to her and showed her the red
lump on the tip of his nose.
The mama bear felt sorry for her
wilful baby, and told him to put hia
head in her lap. She licked the bite
until the pain was gone. She gave him
some of his brother's berries and told
him that the spider's bites were just
his punishment for running away

NET.T.TF.'S PAETY.
The table is ready, all set for the tea,
And Nellie is waiting for little guests three
First comes Mary, then Jean,
Each one with her baby so neat and so clean.
Then Rosy and baby, just a wee bit late,
Hurry into the parlor where the other guests wait
They sit down together, each baby on knee,
And talk of the weather like big folks you see.
Then Betsy, the maid, comes in to say,
"If the ladies are ready, tea will be served right away"|
And four little mothers, like big ones, you know,
All wait for the first one to start up to go.
At last they are seated, the hostess, guests three,
The babies have crackers, the ladies have tea
Pretty soon the clock on the mantel strikes five,
And nurses for three little guests then arrive.
All are bundled up warmly and snug as can be
Are the three little maidens who came to the tea
As the nurses their charges lead gently away
Each says to the hostess a pleasant good-day.

As a steamer was leaving the harbor of Athens a
well dressed young passenger approached the captain,
and, pointing to the distant hills, inquired: "What if
that white stuff on the hills, captain!"
"That is snow, madam," answered the captain.
"Is it Teally?" remarked the lady. I thought s*
myself, but a gentleman has just told me it was Greece.
