Yes, see, they have got a little boat, with a paper sail, and a little wooden man for a sailor. Now, what do you think that boat is? It is a wooden shoe! In this country we wear leather shoes; but in some other countries they wear shoes of wood. It makes a smart boat, doesn't it?

The sailing of boats in ponds is a very amusing thing; but children should not try such kind of play, unless they have some one to take care of them, as this little boy and girl have.
