+<hr class='c006'>
+
+<p class='c007'>A cool, rainy morning. The boys and
+girls all came to school with thick shoes on,
+and coats and shawls to protect them from
+the wet. When Mary came, she told her
+scholars she was glad to find the rain had
+not kept them at home. Mary smiled, and
+looked around to see if they had all come, and
+she counted. Charles Linn and Harry Linn,
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_8'>8</span>and their sister Lucy. Lily Forester, and
+her brother Eddy. Susan Field, and Ellen
+Raby.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>All here, but Carry Deacon. Mary said,
+“Who can tell why Carry has not come to
+school? I do not like to miss one of my
+little scholars. I like to have them all with
+me.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>No one could tell why Carry had not come.
+Mary then helped the smaller scholars to
+take off their coats and shawls; and she
+showed them how to hang up their wet
+things to dry on the pegs in the entry; and
+she bade them put their umbrellas into a
+pail, which stood by the door on purpose to
+receive them. Mary asked if they had all
+brought their dinners? And one said, “I
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_9'>9</span>have brought mine.” And another said, “We
+have brought ours.” And Mary said, “We
+have brought ours.” It was not far for Mary
+and the Linns to go home to dinner; but she
+liked to indulge her scholars when she could,
+and she knew she could not please them
+better than to stay and dine with them on
+rainy days.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>The boys and girls put their dinner-baskets
+into a little closet outside the school-room
+door; and then Mary rang her bell—the
+signal that it was time to collect. While
+they were putting their dinner-baskets away,
+Harry Linn said to Lily Forester,</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Lily, are you glad it’s a rainy day? I
+am.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Lily said, “I am glad, too.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'><span class='pageno' id='Page_10'>10</span>“Harry, what have you got for dinner?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“I don’t know,” Harry said. “Mary put
+up our dinner while I was looking at father
+when he was getting into the wagon.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“I’ll tell you what I’ve got, Harry,” said
+Lily; “a little pie with my name on it! Do
+you remember about Anne Lyle, and the little
+pie with her name on it? I told mother
+about it, when I went home, and she said if
+I was a good girl, she would make me a little
+pie, and put my name on it. Look here,
+Harry. I will show you.” And Lily lifted
+up the cloth that was over their dinner, and
+there was a little patty-pan pie, with L. F.
+plainly stamped on it.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Harry said, “How nice that is! Will you
+give me some of it, Lily?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'><span class='pageno' id='Page_11'>11</span>And Lily told Harry she would cut it in
+halves at dinner-time, and give him the largest
+half.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Mary rang her little bell again, and Harry
+and Lily went into school.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>While the scholars were taking their seats,
+Carry Deacon arrived. She was very wet,
+and her face was red; and she looked fretted
+and tired. Mary said,</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“I am glad to see you, Carry; but what
+is the matter? How did you get so wet?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Carry told Mary her umbrella was broken,
+and it did not keep the rain off.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“You are so wet, Carry,” said Mary, “that
+I fear you will be sick; and you are too far
+off from home to be sent back in the rain.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Mary thought a minute what she should
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_12'>12</span>do, and then she told Charles Linn, (who was
+the largest boy in the school,) to run home
+to his mother, and ask her to please to lend
+a pair of Lucy’s shoes and stockings, for a
+little girl to wear, who had come to school
+very wet. Charles Linn was an obliging, lively
+boy, and he ran off at once. While he was
+gone, Mary took off Carry’s wet shawl, and
+sent her into the little room adjoining the
+school-room, to wash her face and her feet.
+There was a pitcher of water out in the little
+room, and soap, and a basin, and a cup, and
+a towel. Before Carry had done washing
+her feet, Charles Linn came back with the
+dry shoes and stockings. Then Mary went
+out to Carry, and she helped her to put them
+on. And she took a little pocket comb out
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_13'>13</span>of her pocket, and combed Carry’s hair
+smoothly, and then brought her into school.
+Mary was sure Carry had done something
+wrong, but she did not ask her about it, because
+Carry always told the truth. Mary
+thought she would be very kind to Carry,
+and then Carry would perhaps come and tell
+her about the mishaps of her walk to school,
+without being asked. Carry was a very
+giddy, careless little girl, and she sometimes
+forgot to do as she was told, when she did
+not really mean to be naughty.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>This was Grammar morning; and while
+Mary attended to the grammar-class, Harry,
+and Lily, and Ellen Raby, looked over their
+spelling-lesson.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Charles Linn was at the head of the grammar-class.
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_14'>14</span>Mary asked Charles if he could
+tell her what a <span class='sc'>Noun</span> was? Charles said, a
+noun was the grammatical name of any thing
+that we could see, or feel, or taste, or smell.
+Mary asked the scholar who stood next in
+the class, to point to something in the room
+which was a noun. She pointed to a book,
+and Mary said, “That is right.” Then Mary
+asked the next one, why book was a noun,
+and her little scholar could not tell. The
+one who stood below her answered. She
+said, book was a noun because we could see
+it; and she went above the girl who had
+missed. Mary said to one, “Think of a noun
+which you can taste, and tell me what it is.”
+And he answered, “Apple.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Carry Deacon was the one who had missed,
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_15'>15</span>and Mary asked Carry to think of something
+which she liked to look at and play with.
+Carry said, “Kittens.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Now tell me, Carry, what a noun is?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Carry answered, “A noun is the name of
+any thing that we can see.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Then what is a kitten?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“O, now I know,” Carry said. “Kitten is
+a noun, because I can see it.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Mary questioned her scholars until she
+thought they understood all about a noun;
+and then she told them, the next grammar-lesson
+would be the Adjective.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Now you may take your seats,” Mary
+said, “and look over your reading-lesson,
+while I hear the little ones spell.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Harry Linn, and Lily Forester, and Ellen
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_16'>16</span>Raby, said a spelling-lesson; and there were
+some words in their lesson which Mary explained
+to them, because they did not understand
+what these words meant. Ellen Raby
+spelled Wild Deer, and she asked Harry Linn
+if he knew what a wild deer was? Harry
+said, “I guess it is a goat. Let us ask
+Mary.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Mary told them it was not a goat, and she
+would see if she could find a picture of a
+wild deer to show them. She had a large
+book, full of pictures; and there were horses,
+and cows and goats, and many different kinds
+of animals in it.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Mary soon found a picture of a wild deer,
+and all the scholars wished to come and
+look at it. She told them they might come.
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_17'>17</span>And they asked her to please to tell them
+something about a wild deer. Mary told them,
+that the part of America where they lived,
+and where the school-house stood, was once
+a great forest of trees, where only Indians
+lived, and wild deers and other animals. She
+told them that the Indians used to hunt the
+wild deer, and shoot them, that they might
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_18'>18</span>have them to eat. Their flesh was very
+tender and good, and was called venison.</p>
+
+<div  class='figcenter id003'>
+<img src='images/i017.png' alt='a wild deer' class='ig001'>
+</div>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Why are there not any wild deer here
+now, Mary?” asked Ellen.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Because there is no place for them to live
+in. The forests, where they like to live, are
+all cut down; and now, instead of forests, we
+have fine farms, and houses on them to live
+in.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Who cut down the forests, Mary?” said
+Ellen.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Our forefathers, who came here a great
+while ago.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“But why did not our forefathers let the
+pretty little wild deers stay here, Mary?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“They would not stay,” Mary said. “They
+are afraid of people, of men and women, and
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_19'>19</span>of little boys and girls, and they ran away
+from them.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Where did they go, Mary?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Away into the forests, which are many
+hundreds of miles from here. When our
+forefathers came here, they wanted houses to
+live in, and something to eat; and they built
+themselves houses, and cut down the trees
+before they could plant corn, and wheat, and
+rye, and potatoes. They had to cut down
+the trees before they could make farms.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Carry looked as if she did not quite understand
+Mary, and Mary said, “You know,
+Carry, your mother told you, you might have
+a little garden of your own, and she gave
+you a little piece of ground to make your
+garden of, which was full of cedar bushes;
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_20'>20</span>and do you not remember, you asked your
+father if he would cut down the cedar bushes,
+so that you could have a nice smooth place
+for your flower seeds?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Carry said, “Yes, I remember it, and father
+cut down all the cedar bushes for me, and
+then he dug up the ugly roots, and he took
+out a spade one morning and dug up the
+ground and made it soft. And then mother
+gave me some flowers out of her garden, and
+she showed me how to plant them in my
+garden; and she gave me some seeds, and
+she showed me how to make little holes in
+the ground to hold the seeds. I put the
+seeds in the little holes and covered them up
+with the soft earth, and mother says they
+will grow into beautiful flowers by and by.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'><span class='pageno' id='Page_21'>21</span>“Do you understand now, Carry,” said
+Mary, “why our forefathers cut down the
+forest trees?</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“The land was covered all over with trees,
+just as your little garden was covered over
+with cedar bushes; and you know you could
+not have a garden of flowers, until the cedar
+bushes were cut away.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Carry said, “Yes, I understand now. The
+people who came here wanted to plant wheat,
+and rye, and corn, and they could not plant
+seeds till the great trees were cut down.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Charles Linn said he would like to have
+another look at the wild deer picture; and
+Mary allowed him and all the scholars to
+examine it.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Eddy Forester said, “The deer’s horns were
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_22'>22</span>like some his father had at home, to hang up
+his Sunday hat on; and his father called
+them antlers.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Did your father ever tell you where they
+came from, Eddy?” asked Mary.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Yes,” said Eddy. “He told us one night—Lily
+and me—that they were the horns of a
+deer, which our great-grandfather shot a long
+time ago, on the spot where our house now
+stands.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Oh, yes,” Lily said, “I remember, it was
+before we went to bed. I was sitting on
+father’s lap, and Eddy was sitting on my
+little stool, and mother was making me a
+new frock, when father told us about the
+Indians.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Yes,” Eddy said, “he told us that when
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_23'>23</span>our great-grandfather came to this country
+from England, there was only a great forest
+of trees here, and no houses to be seen. He
+lived in a log-hut, which he, and the men
+who came with him, built for themselves:
+and they had not any thing to eat but the
+deer and wild turkeys which they shot.
+Father told us all that, and he said the
+antlers had been kept ever since our great-grandfather
+shot the wild deer in the forest.”</p>
+
+<hr class='c009'>
+
+<p class='c008'>Mary said, “Now I will put away the large
+picture book, and you may all take your
+seats, while I prepare the black board.” Mary
+told all her scholars to stand up, and they
+answered in concert the questions she asked.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>She drew a mark on the black board thus,
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_24'>24</span>—— and told them to say what she had
+drawn; and they answered in concert, “a
+straight line.” Then she drew other figures,
+thus:</p>
+
+<div  class='figcenter id004'>
+<img src='images/i024.png' alt='Parallel lines. An angle. A triangle. A quadrangle. A circle. A semicircle. A hemisphere. An inclined plane.' class='ig001'>
+</div>
+
+<p class='c008'>After Mary had exercised her boys and
+girls in this way, until she thought they
+knew all the figures she had drawn, she told
+them to say the multiplication table in concert.
+Ellen Raby called this class the concert class,
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_25'>25</span>and they liked to be in a class
+altogether.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Lily said she would like black board exercises
+every day; but Mary was wiser than
+her little scholar, and she knew that Lily
+would get very tired of doing the same thing
+every day. Mary liked her scholars to be
+“always busy, never weary,” and she gave
+them different lessons for each day.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Now it was recess time. And what do my
+little readers think Mary’s scholars did during
+recess time, when it rained so fast that they
+could not go out of doors to play? They
+played in the school-room. They played
+Blindman Buff and “Poor Pussey wants a
+corner,” and “Hunt the Slipper.” Mary lent
+them her shoe to play with, and when they
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_26'>26</span>were tired of playing Hunt the Slipper, and
+Puss in the Corner, they gave Mary her shoe
+again, and asked her if they might play
+Blindman Buff. She said they might, but
+not in the school-room. She told them to
+go into the little room adjoining the school-room,
+where Blindman Buff, whoever he
+might happen to be, could not do any mischief.
+There was no ink nor desks in the
+little room, and he could walk or run about
+there without danger of hurting himself.
+They begged Mary to go with them, and she
+said she would. They all ran off, singing,</p>

+
+<p class='c008'>Mary took her handkerchief and asked,
+who would be Blindman Buff first. They
+all wanted to be blindfolded first; and Mary
+said, “What shall I do to please all my little
+scholars? You cannot all be Blindman Buff
+at once; so I will take the oldest first.”
+Charles Linn was the oldest scholar; and
+after Mary had bound her handkerchief over
+his eyes, he could not see any thing at all.
+He put out his hands, and felt about the
+room, and at last he caught little Ellen Raby.
+Ellen was so much delighted, and laughed so
+merrily to see how queer Charles looked, that
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_28'>28</span>he knew by the sound of her voice where to
+find her. Carry Deacon came up to Mary
+and looked as if she wanted to say something
+to her, and as if she did not like to say it.
+Then Mary took Carry by the hand, and she
+said,</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Do you want to talk to me, Carry?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Carry said, “Yes, but not before anybody.
+Let us go back into the school-room.” Mary
+went with Carry into the school-room while
+the scholars were at play, and she said, “Now,

+getting to school so late this morning.”</p>

+    <p><span class='dl_1'><i>Carry.</i></span>

+      “I thought you told me your umbrella was broken: how was it done, Carry?”</p>

+      “I walked and walked, and I ran some of the way, and I called ‘Mother,’ and ‘Mary.’ I was

+
+<p class='c008'>Carry was a very affectionate little girl,

+
+<p class='c008'>Mary kissed Carry, and said, “I will forgive
+you, dear, but do you not know that
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_34'>34</span>when we do wrong, even in a very little
+thing, we must ask our Heavenly Father to
+forgive us? Whenever you do wrong, a stain
+is left upon your soul—upon that part of you
+which lives for ever and ever. God’s good
+spirit within you makes you sensible of this
+stain; makes you feel that all is not right
+with you; and then you are unhappy, uncomfortable;
+and you cannot feel happy
+again until the stain is taken away. I do
+not see it. I cannot take it away: but God sees
+it, and can take it away. And if you are really
+sorry and ask Him, He will take it away,
+and make you happy again. I will give you a
+little prayer to learn; and before you lie down
+in your bed to-night, think over what you
+have been doing to-day. You must try to ask
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_35'>35</span>your Heavenly Father’s forgiveness before
+you go to sleep, and then you can repeat
+these verses.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Will you say the little prayer to me,
+Mary?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Yes.”</p>
+
+<div class='lg-container-b'>
+  <div class='linegroup'>

+      <div class='line'>Heavenly Father! I am little,</div>

+    <p><span class='dl_1'><i>Carry.</i></span>

+    <p><span class='dl_1'><i>Mary.</i></span>

+<span class='pageno' id='Page_37'>37</span>
+    <p><span class='dl_1'><i>Mary.</i></span>
+      “Yes. All the scholars, except you, put away their books and slates, before they went out 
+      to play, and yours are all out of place. Go, now, and put them neatly into your desk.”</p>
+    </div>
+
+<p class='c008'>Carry ran away to do as Mary told her.
+And then Mary rang the bell for school.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Now it was reading time. Harry Linn,
+and Lily Forester, and Ellen Raby, were in
+a class by themselves. They were just learning
+to read. Ellen Raby was older than
+Harry and Lily, but she did not know enough
+to be in the first class.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>After all the scholars had done reading,
+they took their slates to do sums, and make
+figures. Mary showed those who could cipher,
+how to do their sums, and she set lines
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_38'>38</span>of figures for the little ones. Mary made
+pens, and set copies in the copy books for
+afternoon.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>One of the copies was,</p>
+
+<div  class='figcenter id005'>
+<img src='images/i040a.png' alt='Handwritten: Mary loves her scholars.' class='ig001'>

+<img src='images/i040c.png' alt='Handwritten: They are sorry when they do wrong.' class='ig001'>
+</div>
+
+<p class='c008'>When morning school was done, Mary had
+all the books and the slates neatly put into
+their places. Carry Deacon came running up
+to Mary to tell her that she had put every
+thing into her desk that belonged there, and
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_39'>39</span>that the lid would shut down closely. Mary
+went to Carry’s desk to look into it, and she
+found that the things were not all tumbled
+in, helter-skelter, but that each book was
+in its right place; and she said Carry was
+a good little girl, because she was trying to
+improve.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Carry looked very much pleased, when
+Mary praised her. And she said, “I do love
+you, Mary, you are so kind to me. You never
+call me careless Carry.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>The boys and girls amused themselves as
+they liked until dinner-time.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>My little readers will remember, that they
+had all brought their dinner to school, because
+it was a rainy day. They will remember
+too, that Mary lived with Harry Linn’s
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_40'>40</span>father and mother. Her basket was quite a
+large one, with dinner enough in it for four:
+Charles and Lucy and Harry Linn and Mary.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>When it was dinner-time, Mary had the
+napkins taken out of each basket, and she
+spread them all upon a little table which
+stood in the corner of the school-room, and
+these served for a table-cloth. Then she took
+out of every basket all that was in it. There
+was bread and butter and cold meat and
+biscuit and apple pies. Mary had brought
+a large pie, and some of the scholars had
+brought small pies. Mary placed the large
+pie in the centre of the table, and the little
+pies around it. Lily Forester’s patty-pan pie,
+with her name on it, was the least of all. Lily
+capered around the table, and was wild with
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_41'>41</span>delight. Ellen Raby said the large pie was
+the mother-pie and the little pies were the
+children.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Charles Linn took the pitcher and brought
+some fresh water from the spring, and Mary
+put the little mug which was in the wash-room,
+on the table, for a drinking cup. When
+the table was arranged, Mary allowed Ellen
+Raby to ring the bell. She rang the bell very
+loud, and she ran about, saying to every one,
+“Please to come to dinner.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Before they began to eat, they sat in silence<a id='rA'></a><a href='#fA' class='c010'><sup>[A]</sup></a>
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_42'>42</span>for a little while; and then Mary asked her
+scholars, if they knew why we sit in silence
+before we partake of our meals? Charles
+Linn said, “We do it that we may think of
+our Heavenly Father, before we eat our food,
+because He gives it to us.” “Yes,” said Mary,
+“He gives us every good thing that we have,
+and we should try, when we receive his gifts,
+to ask Him to give us grateful hearts for
+them. We cannot give ourselves kind parents
+and pleasant homes and health, nor
+abilities to provide food and raiment. God
+must give them to us or we must go without
+them.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Shall I repeat to my little scholars some
+verses which my mother taught me to say
+when I was about as old as Lily Forester?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'><span class='pageno' id='Page_43'>43</span>They all said, “Yes, oh do, before we eat
+our dinner.” And Mary repeated:</p>

+    </div>
+  </div>
+</div>
+
+<p class='c008'>Mary talked with her scholars while they
+ate their dinner; and after dinner was over,
+each scholar put the plates and other things
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_44'>44</span>that belonged to her into her own basket.
+There was not much left, for they were all
+very hungry. Then they went into the
+wash-room, one at a time, and washed their
+hands and faces. Mary required her scholars
+to eat slowly and chew their food well; and
+eating their dinner and washing and putting
+their baskets away, had occupied so much
+time, that now it was almost two o’clock, and
+school in the afternoon commenced at two
+o’clock. Mary had no recess during the afternoon
+on rainy days, and she closed her school
+at four o’clock. She said it was not healthful
+to remain longer than that time in a close
+room. It had rained so fast all day that the
+scholars could not go out to take the air.</p>
+
+<hr class='c009'>
+
+<p class='c008'><span class='pageno' id='Page_45'>45</span>When Mary said it was school-time,
+Charles Linn called out, “Now for school.”
+“Now for school.” “May I ring the bell?”
+Mary told him he might. And he rang the
+bell.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Carry Deacon did not come when the bell
+was rung, nor Ellen Raby, nor Harry Linn,
+nor Lily Forester. Mary asked Charles
+to go and look for them, and he found them
+in the wash-room. They had taken all the
+dinner-baskets out of the closet, and they
+were playing “Go to market and sell apples.”
+Carry Deacon had a basket on her head, and
+Ellen Raby had one on her arm, and Harry
+Linn had tied a string to their large basket,
+and he and Lily Forester were pulling it
+along. They pretended the basket was a
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_46'>46</span>cart, and that it had apples in it, and that
+Harry was Sam the driver, and Lily was
+Sam’s wife, and she was going to market with
+him to measure out the apples in a half-peck
+measure.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>They were all in high glee, and Carry Deacon
+said, “Isn’t it nice on rainy days?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Charles Linn told them it was school-time.
+They asked Charles to help them put the
+baskets away. Charles was a kind little boy,
+and he helped them, and he untied the string
+which Harry had put to the large basket, and
+then they all came into school.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>When the scholars were in their seats, Mary
+said, “Which of my little boys and girls have
+their Definitions ready?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>The little ones did not learn definitions, but
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_47'>47</span>the larger ones did, and they had been studying
+their lessons between schools. After
+Mary had heard the definition-class, she called
+the little ones, and asked them if they remembered
+what lesson they said on the second
+day of the week. Carry Deacon said,
+“Oh, yes, this is question-afternoon.” Mary
+said, “That is true, Carry, and I am glad to
+find you remember it.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>These are some of the questions which

+
+<h3 class='c011'>STORY OF THE GOOD MUFFIN-MAN.</h3>
+
+<p class='c012'>There was once a muffin-man who carried
+muffins about the streets of a large city to
+sell. He carried them in two square baskets,
+on his shoulders. In the street where he
+served the people with muffins, a poor sailor’s
+wife lived. She was sick, and she could not
+work, and she had not any body to give her
+money, for her husband was a sailor, and he
+was out at sea in a great ship. She had a
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_50'>50</span>young child, and she was so poor that she had
+not even enough money to buy bread. The
+good muffin-man stopped every day and gave
+her some muffins out of one of his baskets to
+eat. Whenever the muffin-man stopped, the
+little child would run away from her mother
+to come to him, because she was so
+glad to see him.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Mary’s scholars thought the muffin-man
+was very good and kind. There was a picture
+over the story, and Mary showed them
+the picture. After they had talked about
+the poor sailor’s wife, and the little child, and
+the muffin-man, Carry Deacon asked, “Why
+the people did not make muffins at home?”
+Mary told her, “That in large cities, such as
+Boston, New York and Philadelphia, the
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_51'>51</span>people who lived there bought many things,
+which the country people made at home.
+They bought their milk and their butter and
+their meat and their eggs, because the houses
+were built up closely together, and there was
+not room enough, in towns, to keep cows and
+pigs and chickens. Mary asked Carry if she
+had never seen people carrying milk and
+bread and fruit about, when she was in
+Philadelphia.” Carry said, “Yes, she had
+seen a man carrying a bucket with bright
+hoops around it; and her aunt, at whose
+house she stayed, told her the bucket had milk
+in it.” And Carry said, “She saw a woman
+carrying oranges in a basket, and the woman
+knocked at people’s doors, and asked them to
+buy her oranges.”</p>

+
+<p class='c008'>Mary went around among her scholars,
+while they were writing, to see that they
+held their pens and pencils properly. She
+rubbed out some of Lily Forester’s straight
+marks and round o’s, because her strokes
+were crooked and her o’s were not well
+formed, and Lily said she would try again.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>While the scholars were writing, Mary
+looked over the Bible to select a chapter to
+read at the close of the school.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Carry Deacon came up to Mary and whispered
+to her, to please to read about the beautiful
+garden where Adam and Eve lived a
+great while ago and talked with our Heavenly
+Father.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>When school was done, Mary called her
+little boys and girls to come and sit around
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_53'>53</span>her while she read to them the Bible. She
+read to them about God creating the world;
+and how he made the heavens, and the bright
+stars, and the earth and all the people that
+live on it, and the flowers, and the birds and
+beasts, and every thing that has life. And
+then she read to them about Adam, the first
+man, and Eve, the first woman, and about
+the beautiful garden, called the garden of
+Eden, where they lived, and where they were
+very happy, until they were disobedient; and
+because they were disobedient they had to
+go out of the beautiful garden of Eden.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Is God, who made every thing, our Heavenly
+Father, Mary?” said Harry Linn.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Yes, Harry.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Did God send Adam and Eve out of the
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_54'>54</span>beautiful garden because they were disobedient?”
+asked Carry Deacon.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Yes,” said Mary.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“But, Mary, I thought you said our Heavenly
+Father loved us, and was kind to us.
+I do not think it was kind to send poor Adam
+and Eve away. Why did not God forgive
+them for being disobedient, as you did me
+this morning?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“They did not ask God to forgive them,”
+Mary said; “And you know, Carry, that when
+we have done wrong, we cannot be forgiven,
+until we are sorry that we have done wrong,
+and sincerely ask our Heavenly Father to
+forgive us.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Did Adam and Eve <i>know</i> they were to be
+sent away, if they were naughty?” asked Carry.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'><span class='pageno' id='Page_55'>55</span>Eddy Forester said, “Do you not remember,
+Carry, Mary read to us, that God showed
+Adam and Eve one tree in the garden, and
+told them not to touch it? and he told them
+if they ate the fruit on that tree, they should
+surely die.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Oh, yes,” Carry said, “I remember now,”
+and the scholars all said they remembered that.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Well,” Mary said, “you know <span class='sc'>God is
+true</span>. He always keeps his word. We must
+believe every word of God; but if God should
+not do what he said He would do, we could
+not believe Him. He said he would punish
+Adam and Eve, if they ate the fruit which
+he told them not to touch, and if he had
+not punished them, how could we believe
+every word God had spoken?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'><span class='pageno' id='Page_56'>56</span>Carry said, “Does God love us any more,
+when He punishes us, Mary?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Yes,” Mary said, “He punishes us sometimes
+when we do wrong, because He loves
+us and wants to make us love and obey
+Him. You know, Carry, your mother sends
+you away from her, when you are naughty,
+to punish you; and she does it because she
+wants to make you a good, obedient little
+girl; and do you not think your mother loves
+you?”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Oh, yes,” Carry said; “my mother says
+she loves me, and I know she does.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Little Ellen Raby was leaning against
+Mary; she was very tired. Harry and Lily
+had slipped off from the bench where they
+were sitting, and they were lying on the floor,
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_57'>57</span>looking up into Mary’s face while she was
+talking.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Then Mary said, “My little scholars
+are weary, they have been at school long
+enough.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>The bigger boys and girls begged Mary
+to talk to them some more about Adam
+and Eve. They said they were not weary.
+Charles Linn said he would hold Ellen Raby
+on his lap, while Harry and Lily rested on
+the floor. But Mary looked at her watch,
+and she said, “We will not talk any more
+now. It is after four o’clock. It is time
+for us all to go home. It does not rain
+much now, and we can go home without
+getting very wet.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Then Mary put away the Bible, and she
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_58'>58</span>went and brought Carry Deacon’s shoes and
+stockings to her.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>“Now Carry, dear,” Mary said, “go and
+take off the borrowed shoes and stockings,
+and put on your own. Yours are quite
+dry.”</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Carry did as she was bidden, and then
+Mary took the shoes and stockings which
+Carry left off, and put them into her basket;
+for my little readers will remember they belonged
+to Lucy Linn, and we must never
+forget to return carefully and in good season
+any thing that we borrow. Mary took care
+that each scholar had the right umbrella and
+the right dinner-basket, and then she kissed
+them all, and they went home.</p>
+
+<p class='c008'>Charles Linn said he did not care for a
+<span class='pageno' id='Page_59'>59</span>little rain, and he took the large basket and
+ran home. He left the umbrella for Mary
+and his little brother Harry, and his sister
+Lucy, and Mary and Lucy and Harry walked
+home together.</p>
