American Tract Society, 150 NASSAU STREET, NEW YORK. _h * m H "rjSL Pr ifr M . \ 1 w* An m m. ± * ft ¥ PREFACE TO TIHIIE IRZEAVZDIETR,. This Reader contains nearly 1500 different words. The lessons are graded as slowly, as the limited space, and introduction of as many new words as possible, would allow. The lessons are on a variety of subjects, aud include a great many sentences used in ordinary conversation. Gospel truths have been introduced as far as practicable. The Chinese portion is in the Canton dialect, which is the spoken language of the Chinese in America, Australia, and the Sandwich Islands. The object of using this dialect, instead of the more elegant style of their language, is to give the learner the meaning of the English in plain and simple words, such as he himself would use in expressing the same thine. i. m. a & m I 1 1 i £ P U A Ui I I J.

The sun seems to go round the earth, but it does not. It is the earth that moves and not the sun. 4. The moon is al-so a globe or ball, but it is not so large as the sun, or the earth.

U7 THE LAME DO Go 1. One day a man went to take a walk in the town. On his way home, he saw a lit-tle dog which had hurt his leg. 2. The poor dog was so lame, that he could not lift his foot with-out great pain. This kind man saw there was no one to take pit-y on the poor dog. 3. So he took him in his arms, car-ried him home, and bound up his leg. He fed him, and kept him for two days. 4. He then sent the dog out of his house, to his old home. As it was not his own dog, he had no right to keep him. 5. But, each day, the dog came back for this kind man to dress his leg. This the dog did, till he be-came quite well. 6. In a few weeks, he came back, and brought with him a dog that was lame. The dog that had been lame, first gave the man a look, and then the lame dog a look. 7. He seemed to say, “ You made my lame leg well, and now I wish you to do the same for this poor dog. 8. The kind man took care of this dog al-so. O He kept him in his house till he was well, and could go home. D US' ENGLISH AND CHINESE READER. LESSON XCIX. nole 4L chase hide gg jji jump stone £ crept wa] l tig.

They came very near him, and it seemed as though they would catch him. There was no hole, or oth-er place, for the fox to hide in. 3. What could the fox do? This is what the fox did. There was a low stone wall not far oft. and the fox ran to-ward it as fast as he could go. But near-er and near-er came the dogs. 4. When the fox had got to the wall, they were close to him. The fox made a jump. ENGLISH AND CHINESE HEADER. I IQ and went o-ver. But as soon as he was on the oth-er side he crept to the wall, and lay down close to it. 5. The dogs, in their haste, went o-ver both wall and fox at a jump, and ran straight on. They were going so fast that they could not stop, and they did not see where the fox had hid. 6. As soon as the dogs were o-ver, the fox, quick as a flash, made a leap back over the wall, and was soon out of sight. On went the dogs, but they never, saw the fox again. 7. Was not that a cun-ning fox ? He knew how to cheat the dogs, and he saved his life by it.

Two men once lived in the south of Af-ri-ca. They had a quar-rel, and be-came bit-ter en-e- mies to each other. 2. Af-ter a- while, one of them met a lit-tle girl, which be-longed to his en-e-my. It was in the woods, at some dis-tauce from her fath-er’s house. 3. He seized her, and cut off both of her hands. Then he said, “ I have had my re-vengc,” and sent her home scream-ing, with her bleed- ing wrists. 4. Years passed a- way. The lit-tle girl had grown up to be al-most a young wo-man. One day a poor, old, gray-head-ed man came to her fath-er’s door, and asked for some-tning to eat. 5. The girl knew him at once as the cru-el man, who had cut off her hands. She went into the house, and cr-dered the ser-vant to give him some bread and milk. 6 When he had fin-ished eat-ing, she then un-cov-ered her wrists. Hold-ing their, up, she said, “I have haci my re-'enge. Thus she re peat-ed the very won Is he had used, 7. Why did this girl act in this way ? Be- cause, in the mean-tune, she had heard the ENGLISH AND CHINESE READER. 121 gos-pel of Je-sus, and had be-came a Christ- ian. She had learned what the Bi-ble says, “ If thine en-e-my hun-ger feed him ; if he thirst, give him drink.” 8. This is the best kind of re-venge. You should not re- turn e-vil for e-vil. You should re-turn good for e-vil. The Bi-ble says. “0- ver-come e-vil with good.” LESSOlsr Cl. voice noise ^ sound g cease warns ^ ft . wake gg a-rose |B§ ear-ly .fL a-larm-clock^ H sev-er-al fig con-science yi mom-ing re-solved 7E- heed-ing || be-cause gj ^ plain-ly 0J £3 faith-ful-ly hab-it fg list-en g§ fill du-ty jfc & own-er |ji ^ THE ALARM-CLOCK. 1.

He a-rose at once. This he did for sev- er-al weeks. The clock did its du-tv faith-fnl- %/ ly, and was plain-ly heard so long as it was o-bey-ed. 4. But, af-ter a time, the man grew tired of ear-ly ris-ing. When he was waked by the noise, he on-ly turned over, and went to sleep again. 5. In a few days, the clock lost its pow- er to wake him. It spoke just the same as ev-er ; but he did not hear it, be-cause he was in the hab-it of not o-bey-ing it 6. The clock was of no use. He might as well be with-out one. So he re-solved, that when he heard the sound, he would jump up right a- way, 7. Just so it is with con-science. It is God’s voice in the heart. It tells us what is wrong, and what is right.

The cru-el boy laughed heart-i-ly at the trick he had played. At this mo-ment, a man on the oth-er side of the street, who had seen him, called the boy. 5. Show-ing him a half dol-lar, he asked the boy if he would like to have it. “ Yes,” said the boy, “to be sure I would.” “Come and get it, then,” said the man. 6. The boy ran to him, and stretched out his hand for the mon-ey. Then the man gave him a rap on the hand with his cane. The boy roared \v i tli pain. 7. “Why did you do that?” said the boy. “I did not hurt you, or ask you for mon-ey.” V Why did you strike the poor dog just now ?” said the man. “ Had he hurt you, or asked you for bread? I have served you just as you served him.” 8. The bad boy hung his head, and felt very much a-shamed. If you treat oth-ers bad-ly, they are apt to treat you bad-ly.

The whale is a very large an-i-mal. There is no fish or beast, so large as a whale. They have a large mouth, but so small a throat that they can’t eat large fish. 2. Their tongue is very fat, and yields a great deal of oil. Their eyes are small, and have lids to them. The com-mon whale is from for-ty to six-ty feet long. 3. Whales are very fond of their young. If they are in dan-ger, the whale takes them on her back, and puts up her fins so that they cannot fall off. 4. The have a large and strong tail, which helps them to swim. When they are at play, Dr in a rage from pain, they lash the sea into a foam with their tail. 120 ENGLISH AND CHINESE READER. 5. Ships are sent out from some of our ports to take whales, for the sake of the oil they yield. These ships are some-times gone two or three years. They kill the whale with a spear which they throw at it. 6. When the whale is struck it dives down in-to the sea, far out of sight ; but it soon comes up to the top for want of air. The men are on the watch for this. 7. As soon as they see it rise, they strike it with their spears till it dies. When it is dead ihey cut it up, and put the oil which it yields in-to casks. If the men find man-y whales, they come back with so much oil, as to feel quite rich. fun % m blue soft 11:, f£, wild if- fair II H scent H m. lips P J§ beams If % LESSOlsT CIV. tin-y ^ >J> ha-zy If!
