BOY AND PUPPY. BOY. Come, little Puppy, as quick as you can,And learn to sit upright, just like a man.PUPPY. What, young as I am, have I tasks to do ?Dear master, leave it a week or two. BOY. No, Doggie, youd best learn your lesson at once :Who doesnt learn early, will still be a dunce. So the dog had his lesson, it soon was done— He could sit uprignt, or walk gravely on, And he learnd to swim oer the stream so wide, To fetch and to carry, and much beside. And the boy, like his dog, to learn early began, And became in due time, a wise, great man. 22 -A.T!

A, DOG AND CHILDREN. DOG, how is it that, great and strong,You yet are tormented all day long,And even forced in harness to go?DOG. Nobody else may use me so ; But these are my masters sons, you see:From them I bear all things cheerfully. Ere long came the dinner bells welcome sound,Then they untied him, the good old hound,And to the dining-room took him away;He wanted his dinner as well as they;And each child for him a morsel would save,But he liked that best which his master gave. 23 > «. fe - \ ! ,V\ A
