The Bitter Medicine Cured Her, Although
She Didn't Take It.
Lucy Lockwood caught cold one day
and had sore throat and a cough.
Her mother felt sad She did not like
to see her little girl suffer; and besides,
when Lucy was sick she was always so
cross
She cried because She could not 60
out 10 play; She cried because her dolls
hair would not curl; she cried because
her mother washed her face
A last Mrs. Lockwood sent for Dr.
Devoee for she knew Lucy loved him
and would like to see him. Lucy called
him; My dear Dr. Dee"
The child is not very sick, said
mamma to Or. Dcvoee, but | am tired
Of hearing her cry. Perhaps You can
say something to make her feel hap

Then she coughed so hard that she
almost choled.

doctor, and looked at her tongue. Poor
little girl, you haven't been ont of doors
for three whole days; but then, you
know, it has rajned all the time Now.

read you a story?"
"I-I-screamed, replied Lucy, turn
ing away her little face
Indeed And then what did mann
ma do? Did She run away?'
NO; mammas never run away" re-
piled Lucy, opening her eyes very wide.
Don't they? Why not? What makes
your mamma stay here with such
naughty girl?"
'Cause-'cause she loves me-
"Ah! Then why don't you love
herr"
"Oh. do lido"
"Fie! Don't tell me that! II you love
