“The two friends refreshed themselves occasionally with pears, and juicy, red apples, which grew in great abundance on the farm.
“Marie’s mother had brought out a great basketful, and Lisa was to carry home what were left. When it was time for Lisa to go home, Marie accompanied her a little way, and they still had so much to say that they were in sight of Lisa’s home before they knew it. Marie quickly took leave of her, and Lisa hurried up the path. It was already dark. Just as she reached the house the thought flashed through her mind like lightning: ‘Where is Curlyhead?’
“She knew she had taken him with her. She had seen him nibbling the hedge and then she had entirely forgotten him.
“In a most dreadful fright she rushed back down the mountain again. ‘Curlyhead, Curlyhead, where are you? Oh, come, come!’
“But all was still. Curlyhead was nowhere to be seen. Lisa ran back to the farmhouse. There was a light already in the window of the sitting-room, and she could look in from the stone steps by the house. They were all at the supper-table; father, mother, Marie and her brothers and the servants. The old cat lay on the bench by the stove; but nowhere was there a trace of Curlyhead to be seen as Lisa peered into all the corners. Then she ran around the house into the garden, around the hedge, again into the garden, and along the inside of the hedge, calling ‘Curlyhead, come now, oh! come, come!’
“All in vain; there was no sight or sound of the lamb. Lisa grew more anxious. It grew darker and the wind howled louder and louder, and almost blew her from the ground. She must go home. What should she do? She did not dare to say she had lost Curlyhead. If she could see her mother alone first!”

Does not set quickly like the old style
Glue; has four times the strength.No Heating.
These Glues are used in the Smithsonian Institute at Washington for all its
works of mounting specimens, by the Government Arsenals and Department
Buildings, by the Pullman Palace Car Co., Mason & Hamlin Organ and Piano
Co., and by thousands of first-class manufacturers and mechanics throughout the
world for all kinds of fine work.
Pronounced STRONGEST ADHESIVE KNOWN. Sold in tin cans
for mechanics and amateurs, and in bottles for family use.
The total quantity sold between Jan. 1880, and 1887, in all parts of the world
amounted to over Forty-Seven Million bottles.
Don’t be cajoled into buying the various Liquid Glues which are being put on
the market; some with high-sounding names; others imitating our trade-marks
and name as near as they dare; their only cry is: “Just as good as LePage’s.”
It is the best recommendation that the RUSSIA CEMENT CO. could
have of the merits of their glues. Labels of our CANS are black and yellow;
BOTTLES, red, yellow, green and black, with a line of blue.
We have just commenced manufacturing our NEW PATENT
CAN—which has the following advantages: The top can be turned
on or off readily by the fingers—each Can has brush fastened to the
inside of cover, and a wiper to take off superfluous glue. This arrangement
enables the amateur or artisan to carry a small can in
the pocket ready for immediate use, without danger of soiling from
brush or can. The NEW PATENT CAN is in 3 sizes:—Half-pint,
gill and half-gill.—Regular Cans, pint, quart, 2-quart and gallon.
Bottles, two sizes, as heretofore: 1 oz. and 2 oz.
Be sure and get the GENUINE LePAGE’S, MADE ONLY BY THE RUSSIA CEMENT CO., Gloucester, Mass. |
