Wideawake Willy.
His real name was Willy. But because he was always on the look-out for any fun or mischief, Father and Mother called him "Wideawake" as well.
One sunny day he and his little friends went out to play cricket.
"I'm going to make a hundred runs!" cried Willy, as he took up the bat. But when he had made ten, Freddy bowled him out, and the other boys were glad it was their turn to go in.
It was spring when Wideawake Willy went exploring. He shot his Teddy Bear, and tied it up in a scarlet handkerchief, for he knew explorers ate bears. Then he stuck a long feather in his hat, and strode gaily down the road. Presently he came to a big house. The door was open, and a lady asked him to go in. She showed him all sorts of wonderful things. What he liked best was Chin Chan, the Chinese boy, whose long pig-tail touched the floor. The lady told Willy that in China he lived in a boat, and helped his mother look after the chickens.
After seeing other Chinese people, he went home and told his mother what strange things he had seen.
The Little Old Woman.
There was an old Woman, And what do you think? She lived upon nothing but Victuals and drink; And though victuals and drink Were the chief of her diet, This little Old Woman could never be quiet.
This little Old Woman Had nothing to wear but Abundance of clothes. And, oh, let me weep At the dismal news, She would have been barefooted, but for her shoes.
This Little Old Woman, The tale too declares, Had nothing to sit on But sofas and chairs. No place to repose in At night but her bed; No pillows, but those made of down, for her head.
This Little Old Woman, We here may remark, Had no house to live in, But one in the park, And none to wait on her, Poor soul, but her maids, With some livery servants of different grades.
