While the dispute went on, they came to
a place in the road where man was trying
to make horse pull great load Of stones.
The horse had stopped tel rest, when the
man began to beat him. -. - .,ts 1,., 81 - do
This the horse did not like, for he had
tried tofhis best. SO he stood stock still
In vain did the man lay on the lash: the
horse would not start, In vain did the man
swear at him: the horse did not mind; his
oaths. - ia s7..-,',sgs. yi f,s.e.sa1 s:.,iis: .a
[ just then q young man came up, and said
to the man, with the load of stones, ssWhy
do you treat q good, brave horse IN that
way I. He would pull for you till he died,
|if would only treat him kindly. Stand g.
side, and let me, show you. how to treat q
horse Z. ~ 9aaa. =; ,llssi Z. 7 80
&, So, the man stood aside J; and the young
man went up, and put his arm around the
neck Of the horse, and patted him on the
back, and said, "Poor5old fellow !! = It was
too bad to lash you 50, when you we're do
| ing your best, and just stopped q moment
to take breath" l.aGa. nyz;6s.,fpaa Gill
And so the young man soothed the poor
beast, by kind words and soft pats with his
hand: and then said; to- him, aNow, good
old horse, see what you can do Come,
sir we have only q few steps more to the
top of the hill. Get up now. Show you

hate, i,..fe.-li 5:i :. .;i, s. ;sI :, ll.3;i5
The horse seemed to know what was said
to him !; for he started of at a strong, brisk
pace, and was soon at the top of the hill.
There, my good friend, ~ said the
young man to the, driver, "I hope you see
now that loys Is the best force !; that even
beasts will do for you, when you are kind,
what they viii not do when you are harsh p
John heard all these words, and they set
him to thinking: At last he said to- Frank,
"Itis a hot day, Frank and it is not late.
Let us walk through the lane to school"
.sNo, John, said Frank, "I will take the
short cut, and will walk just as fast as you
want me to. SO, come on."'i.; .: >: >,sfysx

The North Wind and the Sun had dis
pute as to which could show the more
strength. They agreed that the one that
could strip a man first Of his cloak should
be the victor. Il ,-.s' - - = ~
First the North Wind tried his strength
he blew, and blew; with all his might; but,
blow as hard as he could, he could not do
much. The man drew his cloak round him
more and more tight he would not let it
|be torn from him. So at last the North
Wind gave up the tug, and called on the
lSun to see what he. could do. The Sun
shone out with all his warmth. The man
could not well bear the heat he soon grew
so warm that he had to take off his cloak
and so the Sun became the winner in the
trial q. .r.t-." -. T., ..- 49,. Hs.As'-,'.
