1. Jane came home sick one day. Mother put her to bed at once. It was such a cold day.

2. "You must keep snug and get well, dear," said her mother.

3. Dad was sad when he saw Jane so ill.

4. "I shall bring her a gift which will be of use to her, while she is in bed," he said.

5. The gift was a box like a cube. "Lift the lid and it will play a tune for you," Dad said.

6. Jane did. "Oh, Dad!" she said, "may I let Bess hear the tune too?" "Yes, you may," he said.

7. "The tune in the box will help to cure Jane. It has made her so glad," said Mother.

8. Next day, Jane said, "I am well. May I get up to-day?"

Mother let her get up.

9. "I shall take my box and play the tune for my pet cat, Tib, and for my pet pup, Tup. They will like it, too," she said.
