sett-ing a good pat-tern. She
is bu-sy in read-ing while lit-tle Jane is work-ing close-ly at her
needle, and her el-der bro-ther Charles is tak-ing on the Globe the
mea-sure of the dis-tance be-tween two pla-ces. Their ma-ma must
feel much plea-sure in see-ing her chil-dren em-ploy them-selves so
well, and af-ter their work is o-ver, they will en-joy their play,
when they go to it, more than la-zy folks can ever do.

THE MORN-ING LES-SON.

We need not ask wheth-er these two chil-dren have learn-ed their
morn-ing les-son as they ought. Their own smil-ing fa-ces, and the
pleas-ed looks of their pa-pa are quite e-nough to tell us that
they are go-ing through their la-bours in a pro-per man-ner, and
not like some lit-tle folks that stop, and blun-der, and stam-mer,
and are al-ways want-ing to be told. Their pa-pa will I dare say
re-ward them with his praise, and, ve-ry like-ly, by tak-ing them
out with him.
