The Sick Doll

The Lost Ball.

Oh dear, oh dear, what shall we do,
For we have lost the ball?
The water-butt is deep, and now
We cannot play at all.

Learning to Walk.

Mama is giving little Mary her first lesson in walking. She is of course rather timid, but she will learn presently, when she has got a little more confidence.

The doctor has just come in to see the sick doll, and is feeling her pulse. He tells Mary not to be alarmed, for her doll is no worse, and will be quite well in a day or two if she is kept quiet. I am sure Mary will attend to this, as she is very anxious about her doll, and would be sorry to lose her.
