A Sianese Fable o

A man chased by q tiger in forest
one night escaped by climbing q tree,
ON which lived a monkey and its family.
The monkey received the man kindly,
snd refused to listen to the tiger, which
advised it to fling him down while he
slept. When the man awOke the tiger
retired, and the monkey went to sleep
Presently the tiger returned, and recon-
mended the man to fling the monkey
down. The man pondered awhile, then
gave the monkey push, and it fell into
the tigers claws. Awakened by the,
shock and the pain, the monkey laughed
aloud. Wherefore laughest thou,
when l am clawing thy bOdyan asked
the astonished' tiger. Because thou
thinkest thy claws are near my heart,
and thou art wrong replied the mon
key. l"Where, then, Is thy heart" AT
the end Of my tail" The tiger let go
its hold, bat before It could seize its
victims tail the monkey ran up the tree
and was sayed-b It knew who had
pushed it over, but it uttered no angry
word. When the day dawned the tiger
disappeared, and the monkey went out
to gather fruit for its guest. During its
absence the man killed its mate and all
its little ones, intending to take them
home for his wife TO- cook when the
monkey came back. with a throng Of its
kinaolk it found its home made desOlats-
Still it uttered no angry word--Only
offered to guide the man out Of the

maA following the monkey. After "a
