"Oh! Tom,"
she cried, "is a-ny-thing the matter?"
"My knee," groaned Tom, "it hurts aw-ful-ly."

May ran at once for pa-pa. He came, and Tom was lift-ed up and put to
bed, and the doc-tor was sent for. It was found that his knee was bad-ly
hurt, and that he must not get out of bed for a month. Hard work it was
for Tom, but May stayed by him all the time, and at the month's end he
was well a-gain.

ROVER PASSES BY.
[Illustration: IN DANGER.]
A scared little couple,
Fright in each eye!
O what is the matter?
A dog passes by!
Bow-wow!
I'm sure 'tis a big dog,
Or kitty'd not hide,
And her brave little mistress
So nearly have cried!
Bow-wow!
"THE SEA FOAM"
One bright spring day Tom got out his new sail-boat, "The Sea Foam."
Dol-ly went with him, and they set out for the pond. They had but just
put the boat in the wa-ter, when they saw their cous-in Grace. She had
a doll in her arms, which she was car-ry-ing with great care; and she
had her eyes on the ground as she walked a-long.
