Suggestions That Help My Children to Paint Well 
 
 ^"VlWEFORE sitting down to paint see that you have all the materials that you will need: 
 ^^|f paint, brushes, a glass of water, a piece of blotting paper, a clean cloth on which to 
 ^^Qr wipe your brushes, a small sponge, and a piece of white paper upon which to " try " 
 your colors. 
 
 Red, blue, and yellow, are the primary colors. 
 
 Orange, purple, and green, are the secondary colors, and are made by mixing the primary 
 colors as follows : Purple — red and blue ; Green — yellow and blue ; Orange — red and yellow. All of the 
 various shades and tints may be obtained by mixing the necessary colors in different proportions. 
 For instance, Browns are usually formed by mixing red, yellow, and black. If you wish a reddish 
 brown, add a larger proportion of the red. Keep "trying" it on the paper until you get the exact shade 
 that you need. For a yellowish brown, add more yellow ; and for a dull, dark brown, increase the 
 quantity of black. A light shade of any color may be obtained by adding water, and so thinning 
 the color. 
 
 FIRST, study the picture and the little guide before you begin to paint, considering carefully 
 the colors that are to be used and the particular spaces that are to be covered. Then pick out the 
 primary colors, if any, and determine which of them you will put on first. Mix this color in the 
 paint-box tray, and "try" it upon the extra piece of paper. In "trying" the color, do not fail to let it 
 dry before you decide which shade shall be used. The temperature, and the moisture in the air, cause 
 the colors to dry differently at different times. 
 
 It is always best to begin painting with the primary colors, for then a wash is left standing in 
 the paint-box tray which can be used in mixing the secondary colors. 
 
 THEN fill your brush and begin to paint at the top of the picture. In coloring the larger open 
 spaces, like the sky and the green grass, try not to let the brush actually touch the surface of the 
 paper, for wheresoever the brush rubs the paper it will leave a streak behind it — especially if the 
 wash is thick. To apply the color evenly, roll the water-drop at the end of your brush in a sort of 
 "wave" from the top of the picture downwards, moving the brush from left to right. Never draw 
 your brush back and forth across the page. 
 
 Keep the color within the printed outlines, and allow it to fill the space evenly. If the color 
 goes over the outline in places, it can be easily removed with a clean, wet brush and the blotting paper. 
 
 If a wash in your paint-box tray is so large that it will require many brushfuls of paint to mix 
 another color, soak up most of it with your sponge, and leave only as much as you will actually need. 
 
 Always clean the brush before applying a second color. ALLOW ONE COLOR TO DRY 
 BEFORE PUTTING ON ANOTHER. Do not in any case run the colors into each other. 
 
 Never paint with a dirty brush ; always use a glass of clean water to wash your brushes. 
 Change the water when it becomes discolored. Never put a brush into your mouth. 
 
 Never put your brushes and paint-box away dirty.

 MY BED IS A BOAT 
 
 y bed is like a little boat; 
 
 Nurse helps me in when I embark; 
 She girds me in my sailor's coat 
 And starts me in the dark. 
 
 At night, I go on board and say 
 
 Good night to all my friends on shore; 
 
 I shut my eyes and sail away, 
 And see and hear no more. 
 
 And sometimes things to bed I take, 
 As prudent sailors have to do; 
 
 Perhaps a slice of wedding-cake, 
 Perhaps a toy or two. 
 
 All night across the dark we steer; 
 
 But when the day returns at last, 
 Safe in my room, beside the pier, 
 
 I find my vessel fast.

THE SWING 
 
 ow do you like to go up in a swing, 
 
 Up in the air so blue? 
 Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing 
 
 Ever a child can do! 
 
 Up in the air and over the wall, 
 
 Till I can see so wide, 
 Rivers and trees and cattle and all 
 
 Over the countryside — 
 
 Till I look down on the garden green, 
 
 Down on the roof so brown- 
 Up in the air I go flying again. 
 Up in the air and down!

MY TREASURES 
 
 ^hese nuts, that I keep in the back of the nest 
 Where all my lead soldiers are lying at rest, 
 Were gathered in autumn by nursie and me 
 In a wood with a well by the side of the sea. 
 
 This whistle we made (and how clearly it sounds!) 
 By the side of a field at the end of the grounds. 
 Of a branch of a plane, with a knife of my own, 
 It was nursie who made it, and nursie alone! 
 
 The stone, with the white and the yellow and grey, 
 We discovered I cannot tell how far away; 
 And I carried it back although weary and cold, 
 For though father denies it, I'm sure it is gold. 
 
 But of all my treasures the last is the king, 
 For there's very few children possess such a thing; 
 And that is a chisel, both handle and blade, 
 Which a man who was really a carpenter made.

MY KINGDOM 
 
 ^own by a shining water well 
 I found a very little dell, 
 No higher than my head. 
 The heather and the gorse about 
 In summer bloom were coming out, 
 Some yellow and some red. 
 
 I called the little pool a sea, 
 The little hills were big to me; 
 
 For I am very small. 
 I made a boat, I made a town, 
 I searched the caverns up and down, 
 
 And named them one and all. 
 
 And all about was mine, I said, 
 The little sparrows overhead, 
 
 The little minnows, too. 
 This was the world and I was king; 
 For me the bees came by to sing, 
 
 For me the swallows flew.

 Boats of mine a-boating — 
 
 Where will all come home? 
 
 On goes the river 
 
 And out past the mill, 
 
 Away down the valley, 
 Away down the hill. 
 
 Away down the river, 
 
 A hundred miles or more, 
 
 Other little children 
 
 Shall bring my boats ashore.

FOREIGN LANDS 
 
 *|p into the cherry tree 
 Who should climb but little me? 
 I held the trunk with both my hands 
 And looked abroad on foreign lands. 
 
 I saw the next door garden lie, 
 Adorned with flowers, before my eye, 
 And many pleasant places more 
 That I had never seen before. 
 
 I saw the dimpling river pass 
 And be the sky's blue looking-glass; 
 The dusty roads go up and down 
 With people tramping into town. 
 
 If I could find a higher tree 
 Farther and farther I should see, 
 To where the grown-up river slips 
 Into the sea among the ships. 
 
 To where the roads on either hand 
 Lead onward into fairy land, 
 Where all the children dine at five, 
 And all the playthings come alive.

 And yet she cannot stray, 
 All in the pleasant open air, 
 
 The pleasant light of day; 
 
 And blown by all the winds that pass 
 And wet with all the showers, 
 
 She walks among the meadow grass 
 And eats the meadow flowers.

 And all the children in the West 
 Are getting up and being dressed.

 'n winter I get up at night 
 And dress by yellow candle-light. 
 In summer, quite the other way, 
 I have to go to bed by day. 
 
 I have to go to bed and see 
 The birds still hopping on the tree, 
 Or hear the grown-up people's feet, 
 Still going past me in the street. 
 
 And does it not seem hard to you, 
 When all the sky is clear and blue, 
 And I should like so much to play, 
 To have to go to bed by day?

A GOOD PLAY 
 
 ^e built a ship upon the stairs 
 
 All made of the back-bedroom chairs, 
 And filled it full of sofa pillows 
 To go a-sailing on the billows. 
 
 We took a saw and several nails, 
 And water in the nursery pails; 
 And Tom said, "Let us also take 
 An apple and a slice of cake;" — 
 Which was enough for Tom and me 
 To go a-sailing on, till tea. 
 
 We sailed along for days and days, 
 And had the very best of plays; 
 But Tom fell out and hurt his knee, 
 So there was no one left but me.

THE LAND OF COUNTERPANE 
 
 "hen I was sick and lay a-bed, 
 I had two pillows at my head, 
 And all my toys beside me lay 
 To keep me happy all the day. 
 
 And sometimes for an hour or so 
 I watched my leaden soldiers go, 
 With different uniforms and drills, 
 Among the bed-clothes, through the hills. 
 
 And sometimes sent my ships in fleets 
 All up and down among the sheets; 
 Or brought my trees and houses out, 
 And planted cities all about. 
 
 I was the giant great and still 
 That sits upon the pillow-hill, 
 And sees before him, dale and plain, 
 The pleasant Land of Counterpane.

THE LAND OF NOD 
 
 rom breakfast on through all the day 
 At home among my friends I stay, 
 But every night I go abroad 
 Afar into the Land of Nod. 
 
 All by myself I have to go, 
 
 With none to tell me what to do — 
 
 All alone beside the streams 
 
 And up the mountain-sides of dreams. 
 
 The strangest things are there for me, 
 Both things to eat and things to see, 
 And many frightening sights abroad 
 Till morning in the Land of Nod. 
 
 Try as I like to find the way, 
 I never can get back by day, 
 Nor can remember plain and clear 
 The curious music that I hear.

 If you want to make every mother you know 
 truly happy, give her this book. It solves her 
 most difficult problem! "What shall I give my 
 children to eat?" 
 
 Can you imagine a more entertaining book to 
 place in the hands of children ? The suggestions 
 beneath each picture make the book as instructive 
 as it is entertaining.
