The pond is still. Sam can see a pic-ture

in it.

In the picture is a tree.

It is like the tree in the lot.

Sam is sure it is the same tree.
It makes a fine picture.

Sam can see his picture in the pond.
Dan can see him-self in the pond, too.
If the pond is not still, Sam can not see
the picture.

PART IV.

LESSON I.

A, E, O, I, U, ALONE ON THE END OF WORDS.

FRED AND FI-DO.

Here we see Fred and Fi-do.

Is not Fido a fine dog?

Little Ma-bel can ride on his back.

Fred has a little sad-dle.

He can strap the saddle on Fido's back. Mabel sits in the saddle and has a fine

ride.

Mabel likes the fun; but Fido is not so fond of it.

Fred has a bri-dle, and a wa-gon, too.
He can put the bridle on Fido and drive

him to the wagon.

Mabel likes to ride in the wagon.

Fred can drive Fido, and Mabel can ride

in the wagon. Fred and Mabel can not ride at the same time; Fido can not pull the wagon.

An ox is in the lot.

Sam has put the food in the box.

Can the ox get the food?

No. A cross dog is in the box.

The dog's name is Jack.

He stands on the box and will not let

the ox get the food.

He will jump at the ox and bite him, if

he takes a bit of the food.

Jack can make no use of the ox's food.
