Child-Land.
by Oscar Pletsch and M. Rictor.
A MUSICAL EVENING.
This is a very pleasant way of spending a winter evening, and my young friends like it much. All young folks should learn music.

THE LITTLE COOKS.
Lucy and Jane are fond of playing at cooks, and seem very busy this morning. Lucy is standing on a stool stirring something in a pot, and Jane is watching the cups on the little stove. I hope the children will not burn themselves, nor make a mess on the floor, or mama will be very cross.

THE WHEEL OFF.
Oh dear, another accident! Only yesterday the third wheel came off the lamb that little sister used to drag about the room. And now a wheel has come off the pretty chaise in which dolly rides. But do not cry, baby; we must ask papa to mend it, and then the chaise will go as well as ever.

THE BROKEN CUP.
Laura looks very grave this morning, and no wonder, for she has broken a tea-cup.

BABY AND HIS DOLL.
Baby is busy this morning with his doll. "Bruno" is watching by his side, ready to bark at any one who comes near.

THE KIND BROTHER.
Edward is a good kind brother, for, though he has his own lessons to learn, he is holding the thread for his sister Kate, whom he is very fond of, and tries to please as much as he can.

CURIOUS JOHN.
You are too impatient and curious, Master John. Far better to have waited till papa had himself shown you the pretty toys he has brought you from the fair.

FAST ASLEEP.
The sun has been up long ago, but baby is still asleep, with dolly by his side. We will not wake him, for he went to bed last night very tired. He had been out all day playing in the garden, and seemed quite glad when it was time for him to go to bed, so we will let him sleep a little longer.
This will do him more good just now than being out in the hot sun.

DOLLY'S PARTY.
This is dolly's party. The two little girls have been invited to tea with her, and they have each brought their dolls with them. I hope it will be a pleasant party, though of course our two little friends must do all the talking, as Miss Dolly, though she sits there in such state, cannot speak a single word. But I dare say they can talk for her and themselves too.

DON'T BE GREEDY.
