Stony and Rocky.

Once upon time there was great
family Of lime-stones, all piled up on
the bank Of river. They had been
so close together that one could not
be told from another. They had fin
ished the work they had to do to-
gether. The time had now come for
them to separate and do another kind
Of work.
Way up on top Stony and Rocky,
two lively boys Of this family, could
look down into the river. There they
saw some Of their brothers and sis
tiers who long ago had left their home,
and whose sharps corners and edges
had been worn away by the water,
which rolled them over and over,
rubbing them against each other until
all the rough edges were gone, and
they were smooth and round. These
little pebbles kept calling to Stony
and Rocky up on the cliffs, to come
down. They wanted to 60 very
much, but they could not break off
from their old home without some
help. AS they sat up there wishing
very much to 60 into the river below,
Jack Frost went rushing by on the
wind. Rocky called to this jolly
little fellow and asked if he could not
help them.
Jsck.said, "Of course 1 can; what
help do you need?'
"Oh," said Stony, 1--WE are fast
ened here 30 tight that we can't get
away. Can't you set us free? Our
brothers and sisters are having a good
time down in the water, and we want
to 60 there"
"All right" said Jack, "you shall
60, and l will help you"
So he set to work, and marked off
with his ice pencil cold, white line.
1.-THE sunshine will sosn be along"
he said, "and will help you, too"
Then away he flew. Sure enough,
the sunshine did come, and set to
work to thaw out Jack Frost's ice
lines and make the rocks warm. The
wind blew on them, and the tiny rain
drops came to help, too. All worked
very hard together, and the rocks felt
themselves loosening from their old
homes. AT last, one night Jack Frost
brought his ice chisel and gave them
hard knock, and they kept getting
looser and looser, multiplying !
they went headlong into the water.
Oh, dear! how frightened they
were. The water was so cold and
dark, and rushed around them sc
rapidly, that they were shaken ur
and trembled with fear. How they

wished they had never left their quiet
home to come down here in this busy
rush.
In a little while they had the cour-
age to look up, and there they saw
the tiny twinklers in the sky looking
down at them as they had always
done ever since they could remember.
Their little pebble brothers and sis
tiers comforted them, and they were
soon better contented.
The next day, Stony and Rocky
began to run and play in the water
like the pebbles. They had rather
hard time of it at first, because they
never had been with such busy people
before, and they had such sharp cor
ners that they were always getting
badly hurt.
They soon grew to love the soft
singing water and to like the busy
life, even with the sharp knocks,
much better than the old life on the
cliffs.
After long, long time, more years
than any of us have lived, Rocky and
Stony were worn down into round,
smooth pebbles, and others from their
old home were falling down into the
water.
Their work here, in the water, had
made them ready for another kind Of
work. One day, man came down
to the river with q wheelbarrow and
gathered it full of pebbles out Of the
river. The pebbles wondered what
work they had to do now.
The man carried them away off
into the great city, and made with
them some beautiful walks in a large
park where a great many little chill.
