Snow-shoes and Sledges

A Sequel to "The Fur-Seal's Tooth." By KIRK MUNROE. Illustrated.

Mr. Munroe long ago established himself as one of our ablest juvenile
writers, and this latest work from his pen is perhaps the best that he
has published. The story continues the adventures of two boys--Phil
Ryder, a New-Englander, and Serge Belcofsky, an Alaskan--from St.
Michaels, in the northern part of Alaska, through a 2000-mile trip with
dog sleds and snow-shoes up the Yukon River and across the mountains to
Sitka.

GREEDY THOMAS.

BY KATHARINE PYLE.

[Illustration]

"No, Thomas, no," his good nurse said.
"Indeed, you should not take
At tea-time such a very large
And plummy piece of cake."

In vain it was for nurse to speak,
Young Thomas paid no heed;
The slice of cake, both plum and crumb,
He ate with eager greed.

[Illustration]

But, ah! that night, when all the house
Was wrapped in slumber deep,
Then Thomas had a dreadful dream,
For he was fast asleep.

He dreamed he was a plummy cake
Of most enormous size.
The icing was his nose and mouth,
And currants were his eyes.

[Illustration]

He dreamed the door swung softly back,
The dream-man entered in;
And spectacles were on his nose,
And bristles on his chin.

He held a great knife in his hand,
And tiptoed to the bed.
"Oh, pray don't cut! I'm not a cake,
I'm Tommy," Thomas said.

In vain
