“You’d better come in for your daily bread, or you may get a daily something else.”

“Oh dear!” sighs Nibs. “Dandy, you and I can’t have any fun. We cant even be poor.”

A BATH IN THE SEA.

A bath in the sea! How refreshing it is! At first Clarence was afraid, and would scream with all his might, and he is more timid now than he will be when he learns how to swim.

Hazel is not afraid. She does not go far from shore, and enjoys sporting in the cool soft water. Clarence keeps her busy. The water that is shallow for Hazel, is deep for him. He is a small boy.

“Oh! oh! oh!” cries Clarence. “There’s a fish nibbling my toe!”

“Nonsense!” says Hazel. “A kick and a splash will scare them all away. Now I will teach you how to swim.”
