THE VERSES ARE BY VARIOUS WRITERS

[Illustration]

My readers, would you like to go _abroad_, for just an hour or so,
With little friends of different ages? Look at them in these
pictured pages--
Brothers and sisters you can see,--all children of one family.
Their father, too, you here will find, and good Miss Earle, their
teacher kind.
Three years ago their Mother died, and ever since has Father tried
To give his children in the Spring some tour, or treat, or pleasant
thing.
Said he, last Easter, "I propose, for Nellie, Dennis, Mabel, Rose,
A trip abroad--to go with me to Paris and through Normandy."
Then all exclaimed, "Oh! glorious!"--"But may not Bertie go with us?--"
Said Rose--"We can't leave _him_ at home." Then Father said he too
should come.
Turn to the Frontispiece and see the children packing busily.
The next page shows them in the station at Charing Cross. Their great
elation
Is written plainly on their faces.--Bell
