I. EYES AND NO EYES. 



MORE than a hundred years ago, lived Mrs. Bar- 

 bauld in a quiet place in England where, with her 

 husband, she kept a small school for children. Her 

 deep interest in her pupils and in children generally, 

 together with her simple and pleasant style of writing, 

 made her a great favorite. Her books for the young 

 are among the few that have outlived the age in which 

 they appeared.
