Now let us fancy this water to be the +North-Pacific Ocean, and those small pieces of cork on the side of the +basin, to be the Friendly Islands, and this little man standing on the +deck of the ship, to be the famous navigator, Captain Cook, going to +find them." + +"Do you know that the Friendly Islands were raised by corals?" + +"I suppose they were." + +"Do you know where Captain Cook was born?" + +"He was born at Marton, a village in the North Riding of Yorkshire, +in England." + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: The Little Girl and the Shell.] + + +The Little Girl and the Shell. + + +When I went to visit a friend, the other day, I saw a little girl with +whom I was much pleased. She sat on a low seat by the fire-side, and +she held in her hand a pretty white sea-shell, faintly tinted with pink, +which she kept placing against her ear; and all the while a settled calm +rested upon her face, and she seemed as if she were listening to the +holy tones of some loved voice; then taking it away from her ear, she +would gaze upon it with a look of deep fondness and pensive delight. +At last I said, + +"What are you doing, my dear?" + +"I am listening to the whisper." + +"What whisper?" I asked. + +"The whisper of the sea," she said. "My uncle sent me this shell, and +a letter in which he said, 'If I placed it against my ear I should hear +the whisper of the sea;' and he also said, he would soon come to us, and +bring me a great many pretty things; and mamma said, when we heard the +whisper of the shell, we would call it uncle Henry's promise. And so +it became very precious to me, and I loved its sound better than sweet +music." + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: Robert and John.] + + +Robert and John. + + +One fine May morning, Robert and John were told by their mamma to go to +school. So they put on their caps, and having kissed their mamma, were +soon on their way. Now, first they had to pass through a pleasant lane, +with tall elm trees on one side, and a hawthorn hedge on the other; then +across two fields; then through a churchyard, and then up a little +grove, at the end of which was the school-house. But they had not gone +more than half the way down the lane, when John began to loiter behind, +to gather wild flowers, and to pick up smooth little pebbles which had +been washed clean by the rain, while Robert walked on reading his book. +At last, John, calling after his brother, said, "I do not see what is +the use of going to school this fine morning; let us play truant." + +"No," replied Robert; "I will not take pleasure, for which I know I must +suffer in after hours." + +"Nonsense about that," said John; "I will enjoy myself while I can." + +"And so will I," replied Robert; "and I shall best enjoy myself by +keeping a good conscience, and so I will go to school." + +"Very well, Robert, then tell the master that I am ill and cannot come," +said John. + +"I shall do no such thing, John," replied Robert; "I shall simply tell +the truth, if I am asked why you are not with me." + +"Then I say you are very unkind, Robert," said John. + +"You will not go with me, then?" asked Robert, with a tear in his sweet +blue eye. + +"I shall go up into this tree," said John; "and so good morning to you." + +Poor Robert gave one long look at his brother, heaved a deep sigh, and +went on his way. And naughty John sat in the tree and watched him, after +he had crossed the stile, walk along the smooth broad pathway that led +through the field, then enter the church-yard, and stoop to read a verse +on a tomb-stone; then take out his kerchief, wipe a tear from his eye, +look upward to the cloudless heaven, and then he was gone. And John sat +still in the tree, and he said to himself, "Oh! that I were as good as +my brother; but I will go down and follow him." + +So he went down from the tree, leapt over the stile, ran along the +fields, and did not stay to gather _one_ cowslip, though each one made +him a golden bow as he passed. And when he went into the school-room, +though he was only five minutes later than his brother, he told his +master the whole truth, and how naughty he would have been, had it not +been for a kind little thought, which came into his mind, and bade him +try to be as good as his brother. + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: The Frosty Morning.] + + +The Frosty Morning. + + +"Oh! this clear frosty morning! it makes one feel all life and glee. +I declare I have been running about the garden till I am all of a glow; +and there you sit by the fire, Emma, looking quite dull. Come with me, +and I will show you how the little pond is frozen over." + +"No,--it is so cold, I do not like to go." + +"Oh! put on your bonnet, and tie your shawl round your neck, and, +believe me, you will be warm enough." + +"No, I will not go, and so you need not teaze me any more." + +"O! _I_ will go with you, brother Edwin; _I_ am not cold." + +"Yes, do, there's a dear little Ellen, and I will show you the long +icicles which hang on the front of the arbor; and let us just run to the +field, as I want you to see the hoar frost on the grass, and to feel it +crisp under your feet. Is it not a lovely morning, sister Ellen?" + +"It is indeed, dear brother." + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: The White Rabbit.] + + +Susan's White Rabbit. + + +Oh! Mary, I have got such a darling white rabbit as I think you never +saw. I do believe it is the sweetest little rabbit in the world; for +I only had it given to me this morning, and yet it will eat clover from +my hand, and let me stroke it, or do any thing I please. And James says +that he will make a little house for it, which cousin Henry will paint +very nice. And papa says, that I must call my little pet, _Snowdrop_, +because he is as white as the drifted snow; and mamma says, that its +two little bright eyes are like rubies. Do you not think, Mary, as +I do, that it is the sweetest little rabbit in the world? + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: The Pet Robin.] + + +The Pet Robin. + + +My brother Frederick has a robin, and he calls him a dear little pet, +he sings so sweetly. Oh! you cannot think how well he knows Freddy. You +should see him early in the morning, when we first come down stairs, or +at any time when we come in from a walk, how he runs to one corner of +his cage, to look at us: and when Fred whistles and says, "My beauty! +my fine fellow!" he stands up so straight, to listen to his kind little +masters voice, and then begins jumping and hopping from one end of the +cage to the other, just as I have seen happy little children jump and +hop about in their sports. + +Sometime ago he was ill, and we were sadly afraid he would die; he used +to sit from day to day, with ruffled feathers and drooping wings; his +food was left untasted, and his pleasant voice was seldom heard; but +in two or three weeks he began to grow better, and to eat his food +as usual, and to pick amongst the green grass of the little sod we +had placed in his cage. Oh, how happy we all were then, especially +Frederick, who took care of him, and watched over him with the greatest +love and tenderness. Indeed, he was well repaid for his care and +anxiety, when his little pet once more began to jump about as blithely +as ever. + +And now, you see, he is quite well, and we treasure his little songs +more than ever we did before, for we never knew how sweet they were +until we were deprived of them. + +And thus it is, dear children, with many blessings we possess; they +become so common to us, that we cease to be thankful for them, and know +not their value until they are taken away. We forget who is the Author +and Giver of all good; we forget that it is through the mercy and loving +kindness of GOD, that we receive food and clothing, and every blessing +we possess. + + + + + +End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of Child's New Story Book;, by Anonymous + +*** END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK 10981 *** diff --git a/10981-h.zip b/10981-h.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..995ecbc --- /dev/null +++ b/10981-h.zip diff --git a/10981-h/10981-h.htm b/10981-h/10981-h.htm new file mode 100644 index 0000000..5e03119 --- /dev/null +++ b/10981-h/10981-h.htm @@ -0,0 +1,823 @@ +<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> +<html> + <head> + <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content= + "text/html; charset=us-ascii"> + <title> + Child's New Story Book + </title> + <meta name="title" content="Child's New Story Book"> + <meta name="author" content="unknown"> + <meta name="publisher" content="New Haven: S.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements.

To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + +Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's +eBook number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII, +compressed (zipped), HTML and others. + +Corrected EDITIONS of our eBooks replace the old file and take over +the old filename and etext number. The replaced older file is renamed. +VERSIONS based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving +new filenames and etext numbers. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + +EBooks posted prior to November 2003, with eBook numbers BELOW #10000, +are filed in directories based on their release date. If you want to +download any of these eBooks directly, rather than using the regular +search system you may utilize the following addresses and just +download by the etext year. + + https://www.gutenberg.org/etext06 + + (Or /etext 05, 04, 03, 02, 01, 00, 99, + 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90) + +EBooks posted since November 2003, with etext numbers OVER #10000, are +filed in a different way. The year of a release date is no longer part +of the directory path. The path is based on the etext number (which is +identical to the filename). The path to the file is made up of single +digits corresponding to all but the last digit in the filename. For +example an eBook of filename 10234 would be found at: + + https://www.gutenberg.org/1/0/2/3/10234 + +or filename 24689 would be found at: + https://www.gutenberg.org/2/4/6/8/24689 + +An alternative method of locating eBooks: + https://www.gutenberg.org/GUTINDEX.ALL + + + + +</pre> + + </body> +</html> diff --git a/10981-h/back.gif b/10981-h/back.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..4cd847b --- /dev/null +++ b/10981-h/back.gif diff --git a/10981-h/cover.gif b/10981-h/cover.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..0f761e8 --- /dev/null +++ b/10981-h/cover.gif diff --git a/10981-h/frosty.gif b/10981-h/frosty.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..e2e42e8 --- /dev/null +++ b/10981-h/frosty.gif diff --git a/10981-h/rabbit.gif b/10981-h/rabbit.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..fa88cd3 --- /dev/null +++ b/10981-h/rabbit.gif diff --git a/10981-h/robert.gif b/10981-h/robert.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..748d6db --- /dev/null +++ b/10981-h/robert.gif diff --git a/10981-h/robin.gif b/10981-h/robin.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..34bce7c --- /dev/null +++ b/10981-h/robin.gif diff --git a/10981-h/shell.gif b/10981-h/shell.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..11b51c8 --- /dev/null +++ b/10981-h/shell.gif diff --git a/10981-h/ship.gif b/10981-h/ship.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..7f320ad --- /dev/null +++ b/10981-h/ship.gif diff --git a/10981.txt b/10981.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..eca3f66 --- /dev/null +++ b/10981.txt @@ -0,0 +1,665 @@ +The Project Gutenberg EBook of Child's New Story Book;, by Anonymous + +This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with +almost no restrictions whatsoever.

Now let us fancy this water to be the +North-Pacific Ocean, and those small pieces of cork on the side of the +basin, to be the Friendly Islands, and this little man standing on the +deck of the ship, to be the famous navigator, Captain Cook, going to +find them." + +"Do you know that the Friendly Islands were raised by corals?" + +"I suppose they were." + +"Do you know where Captain Cook was born?" + +"He was born at Marton, a village in the North Riding of Yorkshire, +in England." + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: The Little Girl and the Shell.] + + +The Little Girl and the Shell. + + +When I went to visit a friend, the other day, I saw a little girl with +whom I was much pleased. She sat on a low seat by the fire-side, and +she held in her hand a pretty white sea-shell, faintly tinted with pink, +which she kept placing against her ear; and all the while a settled calm +rested upon her face, and she seemed as if she were listening to the +holy tones of some loved voice; then taking it away from her ear, she +would gaze upon it with a look of deep fondness and pensive delight. +At last I said, + +"What are you doing, my dear?" + +"I am listening to the whisper." + +"What whisper?" I asked. + +"The whisper of the sea," she said. "My uncle sent me this shell, and +a letter in which he said, 'If I placed it against my ear I should hear +the whisper of the sea;' and he also said, he would soon come to us, and +bring me a great many pretty things; and mamma said, when we heard the +whisper of the shell, we would call it uncle Henry's promise. And so +it became very precious to me, and I loved its sound better than sweet +music." + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: Robert and John.] + + +Robert and John. + + +One fine May morning, Robert and John were told by their mamma to go to +school. So they put on their caps, and having kissed their mamma, were +soon on their way. Now, first they had to pass through a pleasant lane, +with tall elm trees on one side, and a hawthorn hedge on the other; then +across two fields; then through a churchyard, and then up a little +grove, at the end of which was the school-house. But they had not gone +more than half the way down the lane, when John began to loiter behind, +to gather wild flowers, and to pick up smooth little pebbles which had +been washed clean by the rain, while Robert walked on reading his book. +At last, John, calling after his brother, said, "I do not see what is +the use of going to school this fine morning; let us play truant." + +"No," replied Robert; "I will not take pleasure, for which I know I must +suffer in after hours." + +"Nonsense about that," said John; "I will enjoy myself while I can." + +"And so will I," replied Robert; "and I shall best enjoy myself by +keeping a good conscience, and so I will go to school." + +"Very well, Robert, then tell the master that I am ill and cannot come," +said John. + +"I shall do no such thing, John," replied Robert; "I shall simply tell +the truth, if I am asked why you are not with me." + +"Then I say you are very unkind, Robert," said John. + +"You will not go with me, then?" asked Robert, with a tear in his sweet +blue eye. + +"I shall go up into this tree," said John; "and so good morning to you." + +Poor Robert gave one long look at his brother, heaved a deep sigh, and +went on his way. And naughty John sat in the tree and watched him, after +he had crossed the stile, walk along the smooth broad pathway that led +through the field, then enter the church-yard, and stoop to read a verse +on a tomb-stone; then take out his kerchief, wipe a tear from his eye, +look upward to the cloudless heaven, and then he was gone. And John sat +still in the tree, and he said to himself, "Oh! that I were as good as +my brother; but I will go down and follow him." + +So he went down from the tree, leapt over the stile, ran along the +fields, and did not stay to gather _one_ cowslip, though each one made +him a golden bow as he passed. And when he went into the school-room, +though he was only five minutes later than his brother, he told his +master the whole truth, and how naughty he would have been, had it not +been for a kind little thought, which came into his mind, and bade him +try to be as good as his brother. + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: The Frosty Morning.] + + +The Frosty Morning. + + +"Oh! this clear frosty morning! it makes one feel all life and glee. +I declare I have been running about the garden till I am all of a glow; +and there you sit by the fire, Emma, looking quite dull. Come with me, +and I will show you how the little pond is frozen over." + +"No,--it is so cold, I do not like to go." + +"Oh! put on your bonnet, and tie your shawl round your neck, and, +believe me, you will be warm enough." + +"No, I will not go, and so you need not teaze me any more." + +"O! _I_ will go with you, brother Edwin; _I_ am not cold." + +"Yes, do, there's a dear little Ellen, and I will show you the long +icicles which hang on the front of the arbor; and let us just run to the +field, as I want you to see the hoar frost on the grass, and to feel it +crisp under your feet. Is it not a lovely morning, sister Ellen?" + +"It is indeed, dear brother." + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: The White Rabbit.] + + +Susan's White Rabbit. + + +Oh! Mary, I have got such a darling white rabbit as I think you never +saw. I do believe it is the sweetest little rabbit in the world; for +I only had it given to me this morning, and yet it will eat clover from +my hand, and let me stroke it, or do any thing I please. And James says +that he will make a little house for it, which cousin Henry will paint +very nice. And papa says, that I must call my little pet, _Snowdrop_, +because he is as white as the drifted snow; and mamma says, that its +two little bright eyes are like rubies. Do you not think, Mary, as +I do, that it is the sweetest little rabbit in the world? + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: The Pet Robin.] + + +The Pet Robin. + + +My brother Frederick has a robin, and he calls him a dear little pet, +he sings so sweetly. Oh! you cannot think how well he knows Freddy. You +should see him early in the morning, when we first come down stairs, or +at any time when we come in from a walk, how he runs to one corner of +his cage, to look at us: and when Fred whistles and says, "My beauty! +my fine fellow!" he stands up so straight, to listen to his kind little +masters voice, and then begins jumping and hopping from one end of the +cage to the other, just as I have seen happy little children jump and +hop about in their sports. + +Sometime ago he was ill, and we were sadly afraid he would die; he used +to sit from day to day, with ruffled feathers and drooping wings; his +food was left untasted, and his pleasant voice was seldom heard; but +in two or three weeks he began to grow better, and to eat his food +as usual, and to pick amongst the green grass of the little sod we +had placed in his cage. Oh, how happy we all were then, especially +Frederick, who took care of him, and watched over him with the greatest +love and tenderness. Indeed, he was well repaid for his care and +anxiety, when his little pet once more began to jump about as blithely +as ever. + +And now, you see, he is quite well, and we treasure his little songs +more than ever we did before, for we never knew how sweet they were +until we were deprived of them. + +And thus it is, dear children, with many blessings we possess; they +become so common to us, that we cease to be thankful for them, and know +not their value until they are taken away. We forget who is the Author +and Giver of all good; we forget that it is through the mercy and loving +kindness of GOD, that we receive food and clothing, and every blessing +we possess. + + + + + +End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of Child's New Story Book;, by Anonymous + +*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK CHILD'S NEW STORY BOOK; *** + +***** This file should be named 10981.txt or 10981.zip ***** +This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: + https://www.gutenberg.org/1/0/9/8/10981/ + +Produced by Internet Archive; University of Florida, Christopher +Bloomfield and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team. + + +Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions +will be renamed. + +Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no +one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation +(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without +permission and without paying copyright royalties.

Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm + +Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of +electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers +including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit +501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the +state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal +Revenue Service.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + +Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's +eBook number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII, +compressed (zipped), HTML and others. + +Corrected EDITIONS of our eBooks replace the old file and take over +the old filename and etext number. The replaced older file is renamed. +VERSIONS based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving +new filenames and etext numbers. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + +EBooks posted prior to November 2003, with eBook numbers BELOW #10000, +are filed in directories based on their release date. If you want to +download any of these eBooks directly, rather than using the regular +search system you may utilize the following addresses and just +download by the etext year. + + https://www.gutenberg.org/etext06 + + (Or /etext 05, 04, 03, 02, 01, 00, 99, + 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90) + +EBooks posted since November 2003, with etext numbers OVER #10000, are +filed in a different way. The year of a release date is no longer part +of the directory path. The path is based on the etext number (which is +identical to the filename). The path to the file is made up of single +digits corresponding to all but the last digit in the filename. For +example an eBook of filename 10234 would be found at: + + https://www.gutenberg.org/1/0/2/3/10234 + +or filename 24689 would be found at: + https://www.gutenberg.org/2/4/6/8/24689 + +An alternative method of locating eBooks: + https://www.gutenberg.org/GUTINDEX.ALL + + diff --git a/10981.zip b/10981.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..ed59715 --- /dev/null +++ b/10981.zip diff --git a/LICENSE.txt b/LICENSE.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..6312041 --- /dev/null +++ b/LICENSE.txt @@ -0,0 +1,11 @@ +This eBook, including all associated images, markup, improvements, +metadata, and any other content or labor, has been confirmed to be +in the PUBLIC DOMAIN IN THE UNITED STATES. + +Procedures for determining public domain status are described in +the "Copyright How-To" at https://www.gutenberg.org. + +No investigation has been made concerning possible copyrights in +jurisdictions other than the United States.

So they put on their caps, and + having kissed their mamma, were soon on their way. Now, + first they had to pass through a pleasant lane, with tall + elm trees on one side, and a hawthorn hedge on the other; + then across two fields; then through a churchyard, and then + up a little grove, at the end of which was the + school-house. But they had not gone more than half the way + down the lane, when John began to loiter behind, to gather + wild flowers, and to pick up smooth little pebbles which + had been washed clean by the rain, while Robert walked on + reading his book. At last, John, calling after his brother, + said, "I do not see what is the use of going to school this + fine morning; let us play truant." + </p> + <p> + "No," replied Robert; "I will not take pleasure, for which + I know I must suffer in after hours." + </p> + <p> + "Nonsense about that," said John; "I will enjoy myself + while I can." + </p> + <p> + "And so will I," replied Robert; "and I shall best enjoy + myself by keeping a good conscience, and so I will go to + school." + </p> + <p> + "Very well, Robert, then tell the master that I am ill and + cannot come," said John. + </p> + <p> + "I shall do no such thing, John," replied Robert; "I shall + simply tell the truth, if I am asked why you are not with + me." + </p> + <p> + "Then I say you are very unkind, Robert," said John. + </p> + <p> + "You will not go with me, then?" asked Robert, with a tear + in his sweet blue eye. + </p> + <p> + "I shall go up into this tree," said John; "and so good + morning to you." + </p> + <p> + Poor Robert gave one long look at his brother, heaved a + deep sigh, and went on his way. And naughty John sat in the + tree and watched him, after he had crossed the stile, walk + along the smooth broad pathway that led through the field, + then enter the church-yard, and stoop to read a verse on a + tomb-stone; then take out his kerchief, wipe a tear from + his eye, look upward to the cloudless heaven, and then he + was gone. And John sat still in the tree, and he said to + himself, "Oh! that I were as good as my brother; but I will + go down and follow him." + </p> + <p> + So he went down from the tree, leapt over the stile, ran + along the fields, and did not stay to gather <i>one</i> + cowslip, though each one made him a golden bow as he + passed. And when he went into the school-room, though he + was only five minutes later than his brother, he told his + master the whole truth, and how naughty he would have been, + had it not been for a kind little thought, which came into + his mind, and bade him try to be as good as his brother. + </p> + </div> + <div class="section_divider"> + <a name="frosty"></a> + <div class="img"> + <img src="frosty.gif" alt="The Frosty Morning"> + </div> + <h2> + The Frosty Morning. + </h2> + <p> + "Oh! this clear frosty morning! it makes one feel all life + and glee.

Oh! you cannot think how + well he knows Freddy. You should see him early in the + morning, when we first come down stairs, or at any time + when we come in from a walk, how he runs to one corner of + his cage, to look at us: and when Fred whistles and says, + "My beauty! my fine fellow!" he stands up so straight, to + listen to his kind little masters voice, and then begins + jumping and hopping from one end of the cage to the other, + just as I have seen happy little children jump and hop + about in their sports. + </p> + <p> + Sometime ago he was ill, and we were sadly afraid he would + die; he used to sit from day to day, with ruffled feathers + and drooping wings; his food was left untasted, and his + pleasant voice was seldom heard; but in two or three weeks + he began to grow better, and to eat his food as usual, and + to pick amongst the green grass of the little sod we had + placed in his cage.

Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm + +Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of +electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers +including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit +501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the +state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal +Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at +https://pglaf.org/fundraising.

Newby + Chief Executive and Director + gbnewby@pglaf.org + +Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + +Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's +eBook number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII, +compressed (zipped), HTML and others. + +Corrected EDITIONS of our eBooks replace the old file and take over +the old filename and etext number. The replaced older file is renamed. +VERSIONS based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving +new filenames and etext numbers. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + +EBooks posted prior to November 2003, with eBook numbers BELOW #10000, +are filed in directories based on their release date. If you want to +download any of these eBooks directly, rather than using the regular +search system you may utilize the following addresses and just +download by the etext year. + + https://www.gutenberg.org/etext06 + + (Or /etext 05, 04, 03, 02, 01, 00, 99, + 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90) + +EBooks posted since November 2003, with etext numbers OVER #10000, are +filed in a different way. The year of a release date is no longer part +of the directory path. The path is based on the etext number (which is +identical to the filename). The path to the file is made up of single +digits corresponding to all but the last digit in the filename. For +example an eBook of filename 10234 would be found at: + + https://www.gutenberg.org/1/0/2/3/10234 + +or filename 24689 would be found at: + https://www.gutenberg.org/2/4/6/8/24689 + +An alternative method of locating eBooks: + https://www.gutenberg.org/GUTINDEX.ALL + + + + +</pre> + + </body> +</html> diff --git a/old/10981-h/back.gif b/old/10981-h/back.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..4cd847b --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10981-h/back.gif diff --git a/old/10981-h/cover.gif b/old/10981-h/cover.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..0f761e8 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10981-h/cover.gif diff --git a/old/10981-h/frosty.gif b/old/10981-h/frosty.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..e2e42e8 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10981-h/frosty.gif diff --git a/old/10981-h/rabbit.gif b/old/10981-h/rabbit.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..fa88cd3 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10981-h/rabbit.gif diff --git a/old/10981-h/robert.gif b/old/10981-h/robert.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..748d6db --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10981-h/robert.gif diff --git a/old/10981-h/robin.gif b/old/10981-h/robin.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..34bce7c --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10981-h/robin.gif diff --git a/old/10981-h/shell.gif b/old/10981-h/shell.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..11b51c8 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10981-h/shell.gif diff --git a/old/10981-h/ship.gif b/old/10981-h/ship.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..7f320ad --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10981-h/ship.gif diff --git a/old/10981.txt b/old/10981.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..eca3f66 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10981.txt @@ -0,0 +1,665 @@ +The Project Gutenberg EBook of Child's New Story Book;, by Anonymous + +This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with +almost no restrictions whatsoever.

Now let us fancy this water to be the +North-Pacific Ocean, and those small pieces of cork on the side of the +basin, to be the Friendly Islands, and this little man standing on the +deck of the ship, to be the famous navigator, Captain Cook, going to +find them." + +"Do you know that the Friendly Islands were raised by corals?" + +"I suppose they were." + +"Do you know where Captain Cook was born?" + +"He was born at Marton, a village in the North Riding of Yorkshire, +in England." + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: The Little Girl and the Shell.] + + +The Little Girl and the Shell. + + +When I went to visit a friend, the other day, I saw a little girl with +whom I was much pleased. She sat on a low seat by the fire-side, and +she held in her hand a pretty white sea-shell, faintly tinted with pink, +which she kept placing against her ear; and all the while a settled calm +rested upon her face, and she seemed as if she were listening to the +holy tones of some loved voice; then taking it away from her ear, she +would gaze upon it with a look of deep fondness and pensive delight. +At last I said, + +"What are you doing, my dear?" + +"I am listening to the whisper." + +"What whisper?" I asked. + +"The whisper of the sea," she said. "My uncle sent me this shell, and +a letter in which he said, 'If I placed it against my ear I should hear +the whisper of the sea;' and he also said, he would soon come to us, and +bring me a great many pretty things; and mamma said, when we heard the +whisper of the shell, we would call it uncle Henry's promise. And so +it became very precious to me, and I loved its sound better than sweet +music." + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: Robert and John.] + + +Robert and John. + + +One fine May morning, Robert and John were told by their mamma to go to +school. So they put on their caps, and having kissed their mamma, were +soon on their way. Now, first they had to pass through a pleasant lane, +with tall elm trees on one side, and a hawthorn hedge on the other; then +across two fields; then through a churchyard, and then up a little +grove, at the end of which was the school-house. But they had not gone +more than half the way down the lane, when John began to loiter behind, +to gather wild flowers, and to pick up smooth little pebbles which had +been washed clean by the rain, while Robert walked on reading his book. +At last, John, calling after his brother, said, "I do not see what is +the use of going to school this fine morning; let us play truant." + +"No," replied Robert; "I will not take pleasure, for which I know I must +suffer in after hours." + +"Nonsense about that," said John; "I will enjoy myself while I can." + +"And so will I," replied Robert; "and I shall best enjoy myself by +keeping a good conscience, and so I will go to school." + +"Very well, Robert, then tell the master that I am ill and cannot come," +said John. + +"I shall do no such thing, John," replied Robert; "I shall simply tell +the truth, if I am asked why you are not with me." + +"Then I say you are very unkind, Robert," said John. + +"You will not go with me, then?" asked Robert, with a tear in his sweet +blue eye. + +"I shall go up into this tree," said John; "and so good morning to you." + +Poor Robert gave one long look at his brother, heaved a deep sigh, and +went on his way. And naughty John sat in the tree and watched him, after +he had crossed the stile, walk along the smooth broad pathway that led +through the field, then enter the church-yard, and stoop to read a verse +on a tomb-stone; then take out his kerchief, wipe a tear from his eye, +look upward to the cloudless heaven, and then he was gone. And John sat +still in the tree, and he said to himself, "Oh! that I were as good as +my brother; but I will go down and follow him." + +So he went down from the tree, leapt over the stile, ran along the +fields, and did not stay to gather _one_ cowslip, though each one made +him a golden bow as he passed. And when he went into the school-room, +though he was only five minutes later than his brother, he told his +master the whole truth, and how naughty he would have been, had it not +been for a kind little thought, which came into his mind, and bade him +try to be as good as his brother. + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: The Frosty Morning.] + + +The Frosty Morning. + + +"Oh! this clear frosty morning! it makes one feel all life and glee. +I declare I have been running about the garden till I am all of a glow; +and there you sit by the fire, Emma, looking quite dull. Come with me, +and I will show you how the little pond is frozen over." + +"No,--it is so cold, I do not like to go." + +"Oh! put on your bonnet, and tie your shawl round your neck, and, +believe me, you will be warm enough." + +"No, I will not go, and so you need not teaze me any more." + +"O! _I_ will go with you, brother Edwin; _I_ am not cold." + +"Yes, do, there's a dear little Ellen, and I will show you the long +icicles which hang on the front of the arbor; and let us just run to the +field, as I want you to see the hoar frost on the grass, and to feel it +crisp under your feet. Is it not a lovely morning, sister Ellen?" + +"It is indeed, dear brother." + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: The White Rabbit.] + + +Susan's White Rabbit. + + +Oh! Mary, I have got such a darling white rabbit as I think you never +saw. I do believe it is the sweetest little rabbit in the world; for +I only had it given to me this morning, and yet it will eat clover from +my hand, and let me stroke it, or do any thing I please. And James says +that he will make a little house for it, which cousin Henry will paint +very nice. And papa says, that I must call my little pet, _Snowdrop_, +because he is as white as the drifted snow; and mamma says, that its +two little bright eyes are like rubies. Do you not think, Mary, as +I do, that it is the sweetest little rabbit in the world? + + + + * * * * * + + +[Illustration: The Pet Robin.] + + +The Pet Robin. + + +My brother Frederick has a robin, and he calls him a dear little pet, +he sings so sweetly. Oh! you cannot think how well he knows Freddy. You +should see him early in the morning, when we first come down stairs, or +at any time when we come in from a walk, how he runs to one corner of +his cage, to look at us: and when Fred whistles and says, "My beauty! +my fine fellow!" he stands up so straight, to listen to his kind little +masters voice, and then begins jumping and hopping from one end of the +cage to the other, just as I have seen happy little children jump and +hop about in their sports. + +Sometime ago he was ill, and we were sadly afraid he would die; he used +to sit from day to day, with ruffled feathers and drooping wings; his +food was left untasted, and his pleasant voice was seldom heard; but +in two or three weeks he began to grow better, and to eat his food +as usual, and to pick amongst the green grass of the little sod we +had placed in his cage. Oh, how happy we all were then, especially +Frederick, who took care of him, and watched over him with the greatest +love and tenderness. Indeed, he was well repaid for his care and +anxiety, when his little pet once more began to jump about as blithely +as ever. + +And now, you see, he is quite well, and we treasure his little songs +more than ever we did before, for we never knew how sweet they were +until we were deprived of them. + +And thus it is, dear children, with many blessings we possess; they +become so common to us, that we cease to be thankful for them, and know +not their value until they are taken away. We forget who is the Author +and Giver of all good; we forget that it is through the mercy and loving +kindness of GOD, that we receive food and clothing, and every blessing +we possess. + + + + + +End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of Child's New Story Book;, by Anonymous + +*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK CHILD'S NEW STORY BOOK; *** + +***** This file should be named 10981.txt or 10981.zip ***** +This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: + https://www.gutenberg.org/1/0/9/8/10981/ + +Produced by Internet Archive; University of Florida, Christopher +Bloomfield and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team. + + +Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions +will be renamed. + +Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no +one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation +(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without +permission and without paying copyright royalties.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit +501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the +state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal +Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at +https://pglaf.org/fundraising.

Newby + Chief Executive and Director + gbnewby@pglaf.org + +Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + +Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's +eBook number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII, +compressed (zipped), HTML and others. + +Corrected EDITIONS of our eBooks replace the old file and take over +the old filename and etext number. The replaced older file is renamed. +VERSIONS based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving +new filenames and etext numbers. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + +EBooks posted prior to November 2003, with eBook numbers BELOW #10000, +are filed in directories based on their release date. If you want to +download any of these eBooks directly, rather than using the regular +search system you may utilize the following addresses and just +download by the etext year. + + https://www.gutenberg.org/etext06 + + (Or /etext 05, 04, 03, 02, 01, 00, 99, + 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90) + +EBooks posted since November 2003, with etext numbers OVER #10000, are +filed in a different way. The year of a release date is no longer part +of the directory path. The path is based on the etext number (which is +identical to the filename). The path to the file is made up of single +digits corresponding to all but the last digit in the filename. For +example an eBook of filename 10234 would be found at: + + https://www.gutenberg.org/1/0/2/3/10234 + +or filename 24689 would be found at: + https://www.gutenberg.org/2/4/6/8/24689 + +An alternative method of locating eBooks: + https://www.gutenberg.org/GUTINDEX.ALL + + diff --git a/old/10981.zip b/old/10981.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..ed59715 --- /dev/null +++ b/old/10981.zip |
