Look It Up.
It will not hurt you, boys and girls, to learn a lifclle accurate geography, by looking up these places before going on with the story ; and if I were your schoolmaster, instead of your story-teller, I should stop here to advise you always to look on the map for every town, river, lake, mountain, or other geographical thing mentioned in any book or paper you read. I would advise you, too, if I were your schoolmaster, to add up all the figures given in books and newspapers, to pee if the writers have made any mistakes ; and it is a good plan, too, to go at once to the dictionary when you meet a word you do not quite comprehend, or the encyclopaedia of history, or whenever you read about anything and would like to know more about it.
