[Illustration: One boy riding a horse, and another boy riding a cart
pulled by a horse.]
Here come Frank and James White. Do you know where they live?
Frank is riding a horse, and James is driving one hitched to a cart. They
are out very early in the day. How happy they are!
See how well Frank rides, and how tight James holds the lines!
The boys should be kind to their horses. It is not best to whip them.
When they have done riding, they will give the horses some hay or corn.

Some horses can trot very
fast. Would you like to ride
fast? One day I saw a dog
hitched up a little cart. The
cart had some corn in it.

[Illustration: Girl picking flowers.]
A little girl went in search of flowers for her mother. It was early in
the day, and the grass was wet. Sweet little birds were singing all around
her.
And what do you think she found besides flowers? A nest with young birds
in it.
While she was looking at them, she heard the mother bird chirp, as if she
said, "Do not touch my children, little girl, for I love them dearly.
