After much coaxing she prevailed on lie* father to buy her a donkey and cart. The first day of the donkey's arrival he was permitted- to browse on the lawn. The child followed the animal about, and thinking his countenance wore an uncommonly sad expression she cautiously approached, and, striking hie nose gently with her littie hands, ‘aid oor donkey! You feel lonesome, don t you' But never mind, pa a will i> here to-morrow, and then you ’-’ill huvr company.”
