FLO'S VALENTINE
"I wonder where I'd better send
This valentine." said Flo;
"It's pretty, and my dearest friend
Would like it much, I know.
"My dearest friend is Nelly May;
She'll have a lot, I s'pose;
She always does, for she's a girl
'Most everybody knows.
"I want to send it awful bad
To Nelly May, for she
Will likely send her loveliest one
To her dear friend--that's me.
"But there is little Molly Jones--
She said, the other day.
She'd never had a valentine
In all her life; now say,
"I've half a mind to send her this;
'Twill s'prise her so, you see.
That won't be selfish, for I know
She'll not send one to me.
"And Nelly May won't miss it, for
She'll have so many; so
I'll start right off and mail it now
As quick as I can go."

HOW BLANCA SAVED THE KITTENS.
Blanca was a pretty fox terrier who lived on the fourth floor of a big
apartment house, and the four kittens were her adopted family. For
when the kittens' mother died and left them wee, helpless babies,
Blanca at once proved the kindness of her heart by taking and caring
for them as if they had been her very own.
