making comical +faces: I fear the soap has got into your eyes, and that you will +make that towel very black indeed. All boys, when they wash +themselves, should take care to rinse off the soap and dirt before +using the towel. To make the poor little sweep quite clean would +take much washing. I should like to see the soap and water a little +cleaner. Many of us have nice wash-stands and baths of marble, but +this poor little fellow must make the best of what he can get. See +how cleverly he has put a brick under the broken leg of the stool to +prop it. I like to see boys clever and ingenious.</p> + + +<p>BARTER.—Miss Lucy Hart was a nice girl, but rather thoughtless, +little regarding any time but the present—new things in her eyes +being the prettiest and the best;—thus, she would cast away old +toys for new ones, as if she were not likely to want them again. +See, Master George Mc Gregor is bartering for her skipping-rope; +offering some fruit in exchange for it. The fruit he has picked off +the tree without permission. I know Lucy’s mamma will be vexed; for +not only will the fruit soon be gone, and the skip-rope wanted +again, but it was a present from Papa. The plaything cost far more +than a little fruit, which will be quickly eaten, and possibly make +Lucy unwell after so much as she has had to-day.</p> + + +<p>CATASTROPHE.—Poor dear lady! has the cat tried to help himself to a +gold fish, and overturned the handsome glass vase? Naughty Tom! +greedy puss! I am sure kind Mrs. Blossom always feeds you well; and +I think you know that you have done wrong, or you would not run so +fast over the rails into Admiral Seaworth’s garden, where he keeps +his large dog Neptune, who may bark and send you back in a fright.</p> + +<p>Poor fish, see how they gasp!—run and fetch some water, or they +will die. Men drown in water, but fish cannot live out of it. It is +the nature of cats to catch mice and birds—so that we should keep +our little favourites out of their reach.</p> + + +<p>DELIGHTFUL.—These boys, I fear, are bathing without their parents’ +consent, which is very wrong, indeed. It is very pleasant in the +water on a fine day; but little boys should not go there, as it +might be deep, and they might become cramped in their limbs, and be +drowned when no one was near, as many naughty boys have been before +now.</p> + +<p>It is proper that boys should learn to swim, when with Papa or some +kind friend, but not as these boys have. I feel just sure they have +played the truant—as I see the village school-master, with his +little dog, coming over the rustic bridge to catch them.</p> + +<p>I think that the letter D might, in this case, stand for Disobedient +as well as Delightful.</p> + + +<p>ECCENTRICITY.—What have we here?—a very odd, comical picture, +indeed! What a strange fellow, to put his hat upon the fire, and a +saucepan on his head. I do declare he has his trowsers and waistcoat +on wrong side before. See, he has taken the poker for a +walking-stick, put a greasy candle in the book, and the eggs upon +the floor. Why a small baby-boy would not do this: the poor fellow +must be out of his right mind. You may laugh at this odd picture for +it is very ridiculous, and will hurt no one; but good children +should never make sport of those who are deformed in mind or body, +for it is not a fault but a misfortune to be so.</p> + + +<p>FRAUD.—Patrick Murphy—commonly called, for shortness, Pat—was a +very stupid little man; he reared pigs, and had he been sober, would +have by this time saved a little property; but, no, Pat liked beer +and strong drink: so that upon market-days he was far less sensible +than his own jackass—which did know its way home—and for a long +time took back foolish tipsy Pat safely; until one day, the roads +being very bad, the cart came to a stop, and Neddy could pull no +further. A rogue passing, seeing Pat asleep, unloosed the donkey +from the cart, leaving Pat to awake, and much wonder what could have +become of Neddy Bray, the donkey.</p> + +<p>It was very wrong of the man to take Pat’s donkey, although Pat was +a drunken fellow.</p> + + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_31" id="Page_31">[Pg 31]</a></span>GENIUS.—Bravo! my little Artist. I dare say if you try again you +will improve upon your first attempt. All people should learn to +draw, that they may be able to describe a form in a very few lines, +making things intelligible at sight which could not be described in +any other way. A little knowledge of drawing will lead to a love of +pictures and delight in the beautiful works of nature. Giotto, a +great painter, who lived many hundred years ago, was but a poor +shepherd-boy, who amused himself by drawing portraits of his sheep +as he tended them on the hills; from rude attempts he rose to be a +great artist, whose works are treasured by kings and princes. I dare +say you may some day see some of the works of Giotto, the great +Italian painter.</p> + + +<p>HORROR.—This drawing represents little Lady Selina Jemima Townsend +as she appeared when afraid. Afraid—of what? Why, a poor tiny +reptile, a harmless frog, that had jumped into her hat full of +daisies, with a croak, as much as to say—“How do you do? Good +morning, Lady Townsend; I am glad to see you down in the country.” +But what do you think she did? Why, the little lady scampered away +as fast as she could to her governess, in whose dress she hid her +face, crying,—saying she had seen “a nasty horrid thing.” For this +her governess reproved her, saying, “God created nothing in vain.” +Frogs are harmless and beautiful when in the water, through which +they can swim and dive with wonderful ease.</p> + + +<p>ICHABOD AT THE JAM.—Ichabod is an odd name, but such is the name of +the little boy in the picture. He was much pampered by his parents, +and never knew when he had had enough. Ichabod would cry for things +to eat, then cry again because he could eat no more, and after all +cry, because eating made him feel sick and ill: but that was not +all; Ichabod was, I am ashamed to say, a thief. He stole the jam +when his mother thought he was asleep in bed. See, Betty the maid +has heard a noise, and caught the rogue in the act. To-morrow and +for many days Ichabod will be ill in bed, and have to take much +nasty physic. I wish he had <i>mis</i>-taken the mustard for honey, and +burnt his naughty, fibbing tongue.</p> + + +<p>KNOWING.—Ah! ah! Jemmy Small. I fear the steeds are too knowing for +you to-day. They appear conscious: they would like the beans and +corn you have in the sieve, but do not like the halter you are +hiding behind your back. More than one has kicked up his heels, as +much as to say—“Catch me if you can!” You seem to think, as you +bite the straw in your mouth, that they may give you a pretty run. I +know Bob, the pony, will not be soon caught.</p> + +<p>Horses and other animals like play much better than work, but good +boys and girls ought to love both, and not require sweetmeats to +induce them to do their duty—for they have intellects of a high +order, and may become clever men and women.</p> + + +<p>LUCKY.—Master Lovebook was indeed lucky in his escape from the +Bull—and I will tell you how it happened: In going to school, this +young gentleman had to go round by the wood and across the meadows, +when one day he observed a savage bull making towards him; alarmed, +he did not run crying anywhere, but considered one moment, and made +back the shortest way to the wood, with all speed for the posts, +just as the savage animal was going to toss him high in the air.</p> + +<p>Master Lovebook was unfortunate in meeting the bull, but fortunate +in having the posts between him and the infuriated animal.</p> + +<p>In danger, brave little boys never cry, but think what is the best +to be done.</p> + + +<p>MIMIC.—To be vain of anything is not right, and to be proud of fine +clothes very silly indeed. The young gentleman in the picture, I +think, is vain. See, he is smoking a cigar, and if we may judge by +the expression of his face, we may presume that he does not fully +enjoy it. As he struts along the rude boys ridicule him. See the boy +behind mimicking his airs and graces—using the handle of the +door-key for an eye-glass. I fear that lad’s mirth will soon be +changed into sorrow—for the jug must be broken against the post, +and the beer spilled—so that in turn he will be laughed at.</p> + +<p>We cannot help smiling at the little coxcomb, although at the same +time we pity him.</p> + + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_32" id="Page_32">[Pg 32]</a></span>NEGLIGENCE.—Here is Tommy Slowboy, the lowest boy in the +day-school, too idle to learn or even play. See how vacantly he +stands gaping at the men clearing the snow from the house-tops, with +his hand in his pocket because he has lost his glove, having placed +the hot shoulder of mutton down in the cold snow. No wonder the +first dog passing helps itself to the joint. Tom will not only be +chid, but have to go without his dinner. Yet, what cares Tom for +scolding or anything else, he who is so neglectful of duty?</p> + +<p>Mind that you strive to learn early, that you may become wise and +happy hereafter. Look at the picture of Tommy Slowboy, and avoid +apathy and indolence.</p> + + +<p>OBSTINACY.—Obstinacy is a sad thing. See the naughty Pig in the +picture, how he pulls in the opposite direction. Master Pig will be +obliged to go into the sty, and very likely get the whip for his +pains; like a wayward child that gets chid for disobedience. I hope +there are very few disobedient young ladies and gentlemen, like the +perverse pig. The pig is a stupid animal: but I have heard of a +learned pig that could tell his letters, pointing to them with his +snout; but most swine are dirty in their ways, and not at all +particular—little caring so long as they can eat, grunt, and sleep. +The pig will often lie in the dirtiest corner of his house, and +stand in its trough of food.</p> + + +<p>PETS.—Here is a portrait of Aunt Gray feeding her Pets, or +rather stuffing the poor monkey. Some people say Miss Gray is +kind to animals, but I do not think so, for she keeps her pets +prisoners—feeding them too much, and all for her own pleasure, +until they become like spoilt children, peevish, and always wanting +sweet things. Kind children love animals, and delight to see them +free. In the Zoological Gardens animals are not pets; they have +there plenty of room, and are nicely kept for our instruction. See, +poor Jacko, the monkey, has grown too fat to leap, as in his native +woods he used, from bough to bough. The poor gold fish have hardly +room to turn in their glass prison: how they would enjoy a swim in +the garden pond!</p> + + +<p>QUANDARY.—Poor Dame Partlet having got into the back yard cannot +get out again. She is in a Quandary, for she fears the dogs will +bite her—though their chains are not long enough. Keeper, the +mastiff, is a noble fellow, and would not hurt women or children; +neither would Nero, the bull-dog; he would rather face a lion or a +wild ox: whilst Snap, the terrier, barks and snarls in the company +of his brave companions.</p> + +<p>Little boys and girls should not touch strange dogs, for they +sometimes snap at those who are not familiar to them. To take food +from dogs is not prudent, for they growl, bite, and are +ill-tempered, like a little fellow would be if deprived of his +dinner, after he had tasted the first morsel.</p> + + +<p>RIVALRY.—To compete for good is famous—such as little boys +rivalling one another in a race up the Ladder of Learning—that is +exercise of the mind. Here we have a picture of country boys +exercising their strength—climbing up a pole covered with grease, +for a prize of food for the body. The boy that wins the leg of +mutton will be the hero of the fair, and be carried round the place +on the shoulders of the men. See how they strive and tear to win the +prize. I should not wonder if they all slipped down together, +notwithstanding the encouraging cheers of the crowd. See how the man +on the housetop swings his hat in the air, and the people applaud. A +few inches higher, and the prize is won.</p> + + +<p>SLUGGARD.—Heavy-headed, sleepy Ned, awake, arise! You lazy fellow! +Look at the clock! Eight hours’ rest is enough for any little +boy—and here you have taken nearly fourteen. All Sluggards should +get their slates, and calculate how much time they waste every +year—weeks that can never be regained. If you only lie in bed two +hours later than you should every day, you lose more than one day in +a week, or sixty-four days in the course of the year: which, at the +end of seventy years, would be awful indeed! Twelve whole years +lost! Lazy, idle people, never seem to have time for anything: +industrious ones, time for anything and everything. I hope when +little Ned sees his portrait he will be shocked with his appearance, +and reform his ways.</p> + + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_33" id="Page_33">[Pg 33]</a></span>TOPSY-TURVY.—Well, of all the funny pictures in this droll book I +think this the drollest—a big letter T resting on its top on the +ceiling, like in an overturned doll’s house, or a view taken by an +artist standing upon his head. Turn it over, and see how comical it +looks—everything appears to have lost its gravity.</p> + +<p><i>Gravity</i> means the power that holds us to the earth (as Papa’s +loadstone attracts the needle): if it were not for gravity, we could +not move about. Some day you shall read in that nice book called the +“Evenings at Home,” about gravity, and why an apple falls to the +ground. A great philosopher, Sir Isaac Newton, discovered why, as he +lay under a tree. At a future time you will learn about gravity and +many other things.</p> + + +<p>UNCOMMON VEGETATION.—Uncle Periwinkle was very kind; he loved +nature and his nephews dearly. He wore green spectacles, a +dressing-gown all covered with leaves, and a large straw hat; in +fact he was very fond of gardening, and reared all kinds of odd +plants—this his nephews knew, and determined to play a joke upon +him—not a cruel, heartless joke, that would hurt or destroy +anything: no! they were too kind for that. They only carefully tied +the carpenter’s planes upon the plane-tree, as if it were fruit—and +some little boxes of all colours upon the box-tree, like blossom; so +that when the old gentleman beheld it, he exclaimed—“Uncommon +Vegetation!” upon which John and Walter came laughing out of the +greenhouse to receive a bunch of fine grapes for their pleasant +joke.</p> + + +<p>WONDER.—So, Master Ploughboy Giles, you are spending your penny and +your holiday at the fair. You seem not a little astonished at what +you have seen in that peep-show. Surely you cannot imagine that they +are real; it is the magnifying power of the glasses that makes the +pictures appear so large. The pyramids of Egypt are the largest +stone buildings in the world, and the oldest; the Behemoth, a huge +animal that existed thousands of years ago (but I do not think it +had wings like a butterfly, as in the showman’s picture); Daniel +Lambert was an enormously fat man, who died a long time back. All +these things must be in miniature if they are to be seen in that +small box, very little larger than a dog’s house.</p> + + +<p>XANTIPPE.—The comical event pictured here occurred more than two +thousand years ago: Xantippe, the wife of the great and good +philosopher Socrates, continually tormented him with her +ill-humour—using him very cruelly—one day emptying a vessel of +dirty water over her celebrated husband, whom she ought to have +loved: he only remarked, that “after thunder there generally falls +rain.” Socrates lived in the refined city of Athens; he was one of +the most eminent philosophers of Greece; he was very plain in +person, as you perceive by the picture: but a man may be great and +good, yet ugly, as Socrates was. The philosopher had enemies who +sought his destruction; he was killed with poison. After his death +his accusers were despised, as you will read in ancient history some +day.</p> + + +<p>YEARN.—What have we here? Little Miss Cross vexed, just because she +cannot get at the grapes. I am sure I should not like to have my +portrait drawn with such a sullen face. She has been trying to take +fruit without her aunt’s permission, that very likely is unripe and +improper for her. The walk in a delightful garden ought not to make +her long to eat all the fruit she sets eyes upon, or wish to pick +the sweet flowers, that last much longer upon the plants than when +plucked. I perceive that the peevish young lady in the picture has +been picking the flowers. See, they are strewn upon the seat beside +her, under those dirty feet that have trodden down the beds of +mould. I am afraid Miss Cross cannot be a joyous, happy child, +because disobedient.</p> + + +<p>ZANY.—Finis is the Latin word for finish, and here it is the last +droll picture—a Zany laughing at his portrait in this comical book, +which he seems vastly to enjoy. What a droll fellow, to read with +his head where his heels should be, like the clown in the pantomime. +Look at his staff, the cock and bells, with which he dances, making +a jingling noise. A Zany is not an idiot, but often a funny clever +fellow, paid to make people laugh. We all like a good laugh +sometimes. Many years ago kings used to keep jesters to amuse the +company; King Henry the Eighth had a clever jester, called Will +Somers, whose portrait was painted by a great artist named Holbein, +which is now in the palace at Hampton Court, and may be seen by +those who love pictures.</p> + + +<hr class="hr4" /> + + +<p class="title2 ws"><span class="ls serif"><big>ILLUSTRATED</big></span><br /><br /> +<span class="sans"><small>POPULAR</small></span><br /><br /> +<span class="ls serif"><big>EDUCATIONAL WORKS,</big></span><br /><br /> +<span class="tiny serif">PUBLISHED BY</span><br /><br /> +<span class="sans">WARD AND LOCK, 158, FLEET STREET,</span><br /><br /> +LONDON.</p> + +<hr class="hr2" /> + +<p class="ni">Messrs.

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 http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

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 http://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 checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart is 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. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + http://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. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> + diff --git a/23619-h/images/backcover.jpg b/23619-h/images/backcover.jpg Binary files differnew file mode
