"DON'T FORGET ME."

Baby is sitting in the out-house eating a piece of bread-and-b.u.t.ter. Bob is putting his paw gently upon him, as much as to say, "Don't forget me, baby, but give me a bit, please."

THE BAKERY.

Mary has come to the baker's to buy a new loaf this morning, and she has peeped into the bakery to see how the men make the bread. She must not stay long though, for they are all waiting at home to have their breakfast.

COMING OUT OF SCHOOL.

The clock has just struck the hour, and the children are coming out of school. They seem to have forgotten that the snow is on the ground, and that it is very slippery. Three of them have fallen down, but I do not think they have hurt themselves, as they seem very merry.

HELPING TO COOK.
