GREAT AND LITTLE BEARS. 9 
‘we might think you were talking of Ursa 
Major, the Great Bear of the Northern He- 
misphere ; and of that North Pole which 
the drunken sailor believed himself to have 
reached, when he saw, among the Greenland- 
ice, the mast of the wreck of a whale-ship !” 
“Very good, Miss Jane,” answered her 
Mamma: “TI hope you will remember all 
your lessons as well as you do this about 
Ursa Major; and pray look at Ursa Minor, 
or the Little Bear, which is climbing up the 
pole so well, and which, you say, is the most 
good-natured of the party.” 
“Qh, yes; Ursa Minor knows me, and 
he knows that I never forget him. I have 
brought him an apple and his bread !—I will 
tell George about the drunken sailor as we 
go home.”
