[Illustration: Girl standing by old woman in rocking chair.]
See my dear, old grandma in her easy-chair! How gray her hair is! She
wears glasses when she reads.
She is always kind, and takes such good care of me that I like to do what
she tells me.
When she says, "Robert, will you get me a drink?" I run as fast as I can
to get it for her. Then she says, "Thank you, my boy."
Would you not love a dear, good grandma, who is so kind? And would you not
do all yon could to please her?

"It went into the flower for some honey, and it may be it went to sleep.
Then the flower shut it in.
"The bee likes honey as well as we do, but it does not like to be shut up

"Shall we let it out, Lucy?"
"Yes; then it can go to other flowers, and get honey."

See how well Frank rides, and how tight James holds the lines!
The boys should be kind to their horses. It is not best to whip them.
When they have done riding, they will give the horses some hay or corn.
