A Moral Lesson.

There is an old fable which runs
thusly:-A wolf had been greedy in
devouring his prey, and bone hap.
pened TO stick low down in his throat.
giving him such pain that he went
bowling around in a most piteous man
ner importunlng every beast or bird
he met to aid him to extract it. Yea.
he even offered a reward TO any beast,
bird or fowl which should be successful
in the operation. AT length, more for
gain than out Of pity, the crane under
took the job, and ventured its long
beak and neck in the throat of this ra-
pacious feIon. La fact he actually
"plucked out the bone out of the
wolf, and then turned and demanded
the reward. Then the wolf turning
his eyes upon the crane with frown,
scornlully and disdainfully remarked
-"Why, you wretch, | had your head
IN my mouth, and could have bitten it
off with all ease, but out of pity | let
YOU off, and now you turn to me for a
reward, aud that even Cor my forbear-
auce."
And so we fnd some men in the
world upon whom we confer favors, in
doing which we inhict double wrong
both morally and socially. In the first
place they are not deserving, and IN
the second place, they have no graft
tude, and regard the person doing
them the favor, to be forever after their
slave; aud you form an acquaintance
Of which you would gladly rid your
self. Perhaps it would be too much to
say it is iDgratitude, since it is only
a negative quality in that respect.
This lesson is designed to show US
that we should learn well the character
of people on whom we bestow our ia.
vors, and more particularly our affec-
tions. For, be it known that he who
confers favor under doubtful circum.
stances, or even confdes in an unwor.
thy person, will never find a suitable
return, and will be fortunate indeed
if he is not even worse off for his kind.
