LITTLE THINGS-(continued).

Lit-tle deeds of kind-ness,

Lit-tle words of love,

Make our earth an E-den,

Like the Hea-ven a-bove.

So our lit-tle er-rors
Lead the soul a-stray
From the paths of vir-tue,
Far in sin to stray.

Lesson 7.-Tuesday Morn. Write and Learn. Geography SIZE OF THE EARTH.

The mea-sure through the cen-tre, or mid-dle of the earth, from side to side, is nearly 8,000 miles.

This is call-ed the di-am-e-ter of the earth.

The measure round the out-side of the earth, in the wi-dest part, is about 25,000 miles.

This is call-ed the cir-cum'-fer-ence of the earth.

The earth is so large that it would take you nearly six years to go all round it, if you went twelve miles every day. But you cannot walk all round the outside because part of it is covered with water.

If you could ride round the world in a train, going twelve miles an hour, day and night, it would take you two months and a half to do the journey.
