One of the pbet;s: children, the little
daughter, sate in her own-little garden;
the garden was fall of flowers, and bees
and butterflies flitted about In 'the sun
shine. The child, however, !was not no
ticing themx she was thinking' onty jof
one thing," and that was the great daisy
root which' was all in flower; it was the
largest daisy-root in the whole garden,
and two and fifty double pink and white
daisies were, crowded Upon it.. , They
were, however, ho longer daisies . to the
child's eyes, but two-and-fifty little char
ity children in green stuff ' gowns and
white tippets and white linen caps, that
had had a holiday given them; she saw
them all with pink cheeks and bright
eyes running in a group and talking as
they, went; the hum of the . bees around
seemed of their voices. .The child waa
happy to think that two-and-fifty charity
children were let loose from school to run
aoout iu ine sunsomeM oer cean went
with them, and she was so full ' of joy
that she started up and ' ria to - tell her
father, who vwas . sitting; with his best
friend ' ander ihe 'hawthorn . tree.; Sad
and bitter thoughts, however, oppressed
ed where, he bad hoped for good; hi sob I
was under a cloud, and as. the child ran
up to tell him about the. little charity
children, with whoBO joy she thought he
would sympathize, she heard him say to
his friend i; .-:? Vuil'

The. poet's words were bitter, and
tears came in the eyes of bis best friend.

I-iwill tell you something, my i child,?
said he, 4 in his usual mild voice. -The
child leaned her head : against his breast,
and listened. "Once upon ; a time a man
lived.in a great wild wilderness: he was
a poor man, ana worsea 1 very nara tor

and because the sun shone burning hot
into the cave, he twined - rosesj and jas

rock, n he - planted flower and - sweet
