The American flag has thirteen stripes, alternate red and white, with forty-six stars on a blue ground in the upper left-hand corner.

A Brave Little Girl. Once upon a time, not very long ago, there was a little girl whose name was Lydia. As it was mear Children’s day. her brother and sister had a piece to recite at the church. One of the teachers of the Sabbath school thought she would have Lycia learn a few lines to speai. She learned them as well as the older ones, but her parents thought she was too young, and would not recite well enough, 50 they told Lydia she could not zo. Children’s/day came, and her brother and sister started for church and left Lydia playing in the yard. Her mother went to call her to give her a bath and dress her for the afternoon, and to their surprise found Lydia had sone. As the minister was speaking he thought he heard a faint rap on the door. o he opened the door and there stood Lydia: and as little children al- ways play with dirt her dress was somewhat soiled. She said to the min ister: stay year.— Some Things About Big Trees. Most of you have heard of the big trees in California_ There are whole groves of them. Some of them are four hundred feet high, and are sup- Pposed to be more than two thousand years old. Until latel hese trees were believed {o be the highest in the world, but hLigher ones have been found in Aus- tralia, measuring four hundred and eighty feet. They are very different from those in California. Some of them are called gum trees, because a red gum runs from them, and others are called iron- berk trees, because the bark and wood are so hard that the carpenters’ tools will scareely cut them. The leaves of the gum trees are very large and thick, almost like leather, and are covered with Jittle holes containing a pleasant smelling oil which is extracted and gent to different parts of the world, THE FROG’S FIRST COUSIN doctor's boys had mot been wowing the grass, they might never have noticed him; for he was a little fellow, and he had been trying hard to escape their motice when the lawn mower ran him down.
