them to use their own eyes, and hearts, and hands, in that plentiful harvest-field of life, where 'the reapers indeed are few.'" Among the stories in the present volume are the following:-- Bessie's Garden. One of the most touching and affecting stories we have read for many a day. The Lancers. A most humorous story, with a never-to-be-forgotten moral, inculcating contentment. The Working Fairies. In this story Industry is held up for attainment, and Idleness receives a severe rebuke. The style and language, though perfectly intelligible to children, are worthy of a Beecher. The Princess. A story of wrong and suffering. Little Red-Head. A true story of a bird. The Little Preacher. A sweet story, introducing bird and insect life, and conveying more truth and instruction to children, than can be found in a dozen ordinary sermons. TAGGARD & THOMPSON, Publishers, 29 CORNHILL, BOSTON. TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES 1. Minor changes have been made to correct typesetters errors and omissions, and to ensure consistent use of punctuation and spelling; otherwise, every effort has been made to remain true to the original book. 2. The book from which this etext has been produced had decorative endcaps following several chapters; as these do no affect the storyline, reference to them has been omitted in this text version of the book.
