Dolly's  Doings. 

It's  dearest  dolly's  washing  day, 

So  I  must  get  a  tub. 
I've  no  time  left  to  talk  or  play, 

But  I  must  rub 
and  scrub, 

And  blue  and  starch 
her  things  so  fine 

The  same  as  Nursie 
does  to  mine. 


When  darling  dolly's  clothes  are  clean, 

And  dried  and  ironed  out, 
Then  we'll  run  to  the  fields  so  green, 

And  dance  and  play  about. 
But  I'll  great  care  of  dolly  take 

Lest  she  her  frock 

should  dirty  make. 


These  four  little  people  play  the  whole  day 

through, 


It's  holidays  so  they've  nothing  else  to  do. 


A  Sad  Accident. 

he  ground  she  lies, 
Poor  Dolly,  Dolly  Dimple, 
lile  little  mother  cries, 
'How  could  I  be  so  simole 


As  to  let  you 
dear, 
You    are  •  badly 


happier  childn 


You  Beautiful  Butterfly 
How  quickly  you  flutter  by. 


A  Little  Tale. 

I'll  tell  you  the  tale  of  a  tiny  maid 

Who  lost  herself  in  an  elfin  glade, 

Into  the  wood  she  wanted  to  go 

All  by  herself,  but  Mother  said  aNO!a 

However  she  went  one  afternoon, 
And  lost  herself  in  the  forest  soon, 


Then  she  sat  down  beneath  a  fir 
And  a  rabbit  came  and  peeped  at  her. 
Yet  was  it  a  rabbit  she  saw  -  -  why  no, 
'Twas  Mother,  Mother  who  loved  her  so! 

Father  Tuck.
