"Once apon a4ime, there was a
/ bad king ana the people wished him to
make certain good law. "No," said
he; t'I viii not make that law--it E too

law wish to make Then all my people

The two documents lay in front of him
op the table all written out, and which
ever one he signed would be the law of
the land. He took up big luill pen,
drew the bad law nearer him, and dipped
the pen in the ink.
Just then, 81 bee began 10 biizz. 1t wis
a wise bee.
81 mn. No zuch Flaw zhall pazz -
buzzed the bee, over aud over again; but
no one noticed him. "Zign ze ozzer-

"open the window" foared the king,
"and drive out this bee, or kill him !''
They opened the window. Out few
the bee, and in rushed the wind. 1t blew
in very hard. The papers tapped and
flew across the table. The king was so
mad that he stamped his foot, seized one
of the papers, and signed it in a rage.
There was his name-"K King Blunder-

ne saw that in his haste and rage he had
signed the good law But he was toe

And after that, he was afraid to give

king made only good laws, and to the
