NERO

Nero was cruel Roman Emperor.
For the first five years OF his reign he
ruled well. but he then commenced a
He was always bad Emperor after that.
In the tenth year of Nero's reign there
was great connagration at Rome, While
the city was burning Nero sat in his
palace and played on his fiddle. But this
connagration was blessing in disguise,
for when the city was rebuilt the streets
were made broader and prettier: Nero
had very fine structure built called the
Golden House." It was rumored tNat
Nero had the city burned to make room
for this palace. Nero needed money to
build this palace and no rich man was
safe. Nero was at last declared to be
an enemy TO his country and was con-
demned to die. TO avoid thisadlsgrac e
he made one OF his slaves kill him. Nero
was the last OF the Julian line and his
death removed q very bad Emperor.

HELPING
MAMMA.

The children were delighted when papa
told mamma, that he had decided to move
to the country where the boys and girls
would have plenty Of rooT to romp and
play, There were three children--Alice,
the eldest Horace and little Dorothy
and they had lived In the town all their
lives, only getting a glimpse of the coun-
try when mamma took them away for
the summer holidays. Alice thought It
would be lovely to have chickens and
pigs and perhaps COW and promised
to do all that she might to help mamma.
It was quite late IN the season when papa
decided to take the house and, they had
only been living in It few days when
snow fell and soon covered the ground.
At once Horace wished q sled and Alice
said she really must have a pair Of
skates to go skating on the pond just
back of the barn. Dorothy didn't wish
for any thing except to be with tho
others. The children had lots of fun in
the snow and they helped mamma, too, by
bringing in great barrow loads Of wood
for the fires. Alice would wheel the
barrow with little Dorothy on top Of the
wood, while Horace walked alongside
Will, his arms just as full of wood as he
could carry. Mamma said they we're
the sweetest little ones and helped her
so very much: but Alice knew that
mamma meant that they had helped her
most by being good and kind to ono
another instead of quarreling.

And Is seen by the path SO neat,
Is the violet sweet,
