They put an old coat on him. Then
they killed an animal and dipped tile
coat in the blood ant carried ii to his
father and asked him did ne remember
this coat. Then the boy told his father
that maybe some wild animals had
killed the boy. Then they saw some
people and they sold him as slave TO
til. people OF Egypt. After many years
there was a famine In all the land,
and their father sent them to Egypt to
buy corn. and Joseph waited on them,
but they didn't know him, He made
Simon stay there with him until the
next time they came. Then Joseph
told them who he was. and told them
to tell his father to come to Egypt 20

PHAETnoN.

One day Helios. the sun god, was
st,ting on his throne dressed in royal
purple. Phaethon. his little son, asked
Helios II he could drive his horses
around the sun that day. Helios told
him that the horses were dangerous,
and advised him not to try 1t.
But the little god put his arms
around mis- fathers neck and begged
so hard that Helios said he might
do It.
Phaethcn quickly Jumped into the
chariot. but the horses missed the
strong hands of Helios and sprang out
of the .road. The chariot flew first far
above the earth and then down again
until tho rivers dried UP and the peo-
pie We're scorched black.
Jupiter saw that the earth was on
FIRE. and hurled a thunderbolt and
knocked Phaethon out of the chariot,
and he fell into the River Eridanus.

y1RGINIA,s HERO, CAPTAIN JOHN
SMITH.

Captain John Smith was one OF the
bravest men that ever lived In the
State OF Virginia. His captures and
escapes from the Indians were re-
narkable, and nearly all were man
nged by his tact and knowledge Of
them
So great was their fear of him, that
once, while trying TO back away from
the Indians. he sank Into marshy
swamp and the red men would not
come near him until he had thrown
away his arms.
Captain Smiths life was miraculous
ly saved many times by the Indian
maid, Pocahontas. She revealed to him
the plot Of her father, Powhatan, and
thus saved his life and the lives of
the other colonists.
When pocahontas was captured by
Captain Argall, after being in James
town two years, she fell in love with
John Rolfe. and they were married.
She went to England and was received
with much honor by King James.
John Smith was wounded by pow
der bag exploding and he was obliged
to return to England.
| Captain Smiths name will be forever
known in Virginia, and 1t is to him
that the existence OF Virginia is owed,

err ladies were her fair maidens. They
wore q soft blue dress, Their queen
wore soft, purple velvet dress and
soft. green collar around her fair
neck.
One day a little girl came into the
woods and saw the little queen. She
frightened the little violet. She called
for her knights, but 1t did her no good.
She picked the violetand said. 20, what

THE COTTAGE AMONG THE H111s

:
There was cottage among the hills
And around 1t buzzed the bees,
And by u ran some sparkling rills,
And birds sang In the trees.
A man lived In this cottage,
And the smoke rose from his pipe:
While nsar 1t grew an orchard,
Where the apples were all ripe.
One night the man did dream,
AS he lay in his bed so white;
And to him 1t did seem
That he was a gallant knight.
He dreamed he went to the wars,
And fought a fight SO brave.
And brought back many noble scars,
Which he'd carry to his grave
Just then he woke up.
He was in his snow-white bed,
And tho same old 'bacco smoke
Was circling round his head.
