UR Creator has made many of his crea.
tures to be easily tamed. Children who

but the spirit of love that Jesus gives, will
make them mild and easy to be guided. Strive,
dear little children, to subdue your evil tempers

What a dear little creature it is-so white

bowl full of nice milk, and the lamb looks as if
it wanted to say "Thank you, kind mistress."
Wherever Mary goes her pet is sure to follow.
When she goes to school the pet goes along,
andwaits at the door until Mary comes out,
then they both frisk home together.

THE FLOWERS.
f" JENNY," said Susy Morris, are those
your flowers ?"
"Yes," said Jenny, "I planted them myself.'
"There's a white rose," said Susy, give me
that for my sick sister."
Now Jenny was very proud of that rose, for
it was her only one. She didn't want to give
it, but she thought of the poor sick girl who
had no garden, and gave her the rose.
"0! thank you, Jenny," said Susy, "how
good you are !" Jenny felt very much happier
a'l day f'r that kind act.
