A Garland for Girls

Being Boston girls, of course they got up a club for mental improvement, and, as theywere all descendants of the Pilgrim Fathers, they called it the Mayflower Club. A very goodname, and the six young girls who were members of it made a very pretty posy when theymet together, once a week, to sew, and read well-chosen books. At the first meeting of theseason, after being separated all summer, there was a good deal of gossip to be attended tobefore the question, "What shall we read?" came up for serious discussion. Anna Winslow, as president, began by proposing "Happy Dodd;" but a chorus of "I'veread it!" made her turn to her list for another title."'Prisoners of Poverty' is all about workingwomen, very true and very sad; but Mammasaid it might do us good to know something of the hard times other girls have," said Anna, soberly; for she was a thoughtful creature, very anxious to do her duty in all ways."I'd rather not know about sad things, since I can't help to make them any better,"answered Ella Carver, softly patting the apple blossoms she was embroidering on a bit ofblue satin
