A Chinese Story.

A CERTAIN merchant of China,
N going one day on a journey, placed
in his neighbor's charge hundred weight
of iron. Not having had the success for
which he hoped, he returned home. The
first thing he did on his arrival was to
go to his friends house.
6 My iron," said he.
Your iron | am sorry to tell you
bad news. An. accident has happened
that nobody would foresee; a rat has ca
ten it all. But, what can be done ?
There is always in a granary some hole
where the little animals enter, and COM
NIT thousand depredations."
The merchant is astonished at such
miracle, and pretends to believe it. A
few hours after he finds his neighbor's
child i'll by path, takes him home with
him, and shuts him up in room under
lock and key. The next day he invites
the father to sup with him.
Excuse me, l pray you all pleasures
are lost to me. They have stolen my son.
He is my only son-alas what do say
--ne Is lllne no more.
{" l am sorry to hear this news; the
loss Of an onl y son must affect you much.
But my dear neighbor, | will tell you that
last evening, as was going out saw an
owl carry off your child"
edo you take me for an idiot, to wish
to make me believe such story2 How /?
an owl, which weighs at most only two or
three pounds, carry off child that weighs
at least fifty? The thing is absurd, i'm
possible !"
81 cannot tell you how it was done;
but | saw it with my own eyes, l tell you.
Besides how do you find it strange and
impossible, that the owls of country
where single rat eats hundred weight
Of iron should carry off a child,,that weighs
only half a hundred weight?"
The neighbor, upon this, found that he
was not dealing with fool, and returned
the iron to the merchant in exchange for
his son.
