FOR LITTLE PEOPLE.
WAY POLLY WAS HAPPY.

Three little girls went out to play,
When the sun had dried the dew;
There was Hattie. with eyes of gray
Aud Katie, with eyes Of blue;
And plump little Polly. with eyes of brown
The happiest girl in AL the town.
They lived together-in pretense-
Where two friendly fences met;
With boards for roof, from fence TO fenca
To keep out the wind and wet:
And tree dropped shadows there all the day
And kept the heat Of the sun away.
They had a carpet on the floor,
A carpet of grasses green.
With dardeiion blossoms dotted Ger
The prsttisst ever seen.
Twas just like playhouse, OF which know
That was built in a corner long ago.
Their tabe-it had a scarlet spread
An armchair without back,
Its legs vera painted cherry red
OF dishes they had no lack
For they had those that were spoiled that day
When the kitchen table.ieg gave way
Bits of glassware OF dainty hue.
OF amber, aud pink. and rose.
Some that were deep. dark red and blue,
And soma that were brown: and thos.
They thought far prettier AMI more rars
Than some that were crystal clear like air.
When they went ont, that morn. to play,
Said Hattie: THE house is mine
Kate my daughter must be to day
And I'll be dressed CAV and hne
And you be the servant for her and me-"
"All right" said Polly, that's what I'll 10
But Katie pouted. ''No. nor cried she.
81 don't want tn play that way
I'll be mother, Why can't hes
You shan't be it every dav,'
fut then Polly touched her and whispered low
Never mind, Katie. let's play SO
And so they played AMI popping through
Came child and stool outside
'Oh, let me come in and play with youl
oh, please, let me comel" she cried
But Hattie and Katie each cried mo mol
We won't have you in here. we wont now gol''
Polly looked through the fence Said she.
"Oh. let her come in and play,
I'll live there BY the cherry tree.
And she NAV go with me and stay;
Then wen play calling aud ask ypu TO tea.
Come in, little girl. you may play with ma"
SO they played through the day so bright
Till the dew began TO fall.
Hattie and Katie each said at night
1T hasn't been nice, at sli
We never played such a stupid PLAY
| haven't been happy, a bit. to-day"
But Polly opened her brown eyes vide:
you did what you wished to do
Twas pleasant enough to me, - she cricd
I've been happy the whole day through"
Perhaps we know why. The sweet tempered
elf
Tried to please others and not herself

How to Make the Delicacy Out of Native
