"I'll go if I'm wanted to go," said Jimmy. The water boiled. Mrs. Finnegan was spreading butter on long slices cut from a home-baked loaf. It was Jimmy who took the kettle from the hook and filled the teapot. "Mrs. Finnegan," said Dr. Lovaway, "why do you want the boy put into an asylum?" "Is it me wanting him put away?" she said.

A basketful of apples even from the farmer's orchard is a treat to the children, for, though better fed than formerly, their diet is necessarily monotonous, and such fruit as may be grown in the cottage garden is, of course, sold.

It was my first Canadian loaf. I felt quite proud of it, as I placed it in the odd machine in which it was to be baked.
"You must not only look at your breakfast, but you must eat it," said the lively Petrea; "the bread is home-baked, and Eva has arranged the grapes on the plate and brought them up here." "Eva!" said he, "now, she could not know that I was coming here to-day?" "And precisely because she thought so as well as I, would she provide your breakfast."
"No, I thank you," said the Assessor; "I am no friend to such home-made things; good for nothing, however much they may be bragged of. Home-baked, home-brewed, home-made. Heaven help us!
