An Old Hungarian Tale.

Once upon time the creatures living
with a farmer grew tired of serving
him, and one and all deserted him.
Cow and horse, cock and hen, duck and
goose, left his dwelling. Only the dog
remained behind, faithful to his master.
They wandered about all day long in
company, and when night came, find
ing deserted hut in the forest, they
entered in and took possession of it.
The cat laid herself down in the still
warm ashes on the hearth. Horse and
COW stretched themselves out on some
loose straw in one corner. The duck
waddled under a bench, the goose I'M
der table, the hen flew up on top of
cupboard, the cock on the chimney
piece. Just as they had comfortably
settled themselves for the night pack
of wolves came prowling about the hut,
and sent the oldest and strongest one
amongst them into it to see who it was
who had taken possession there. When
the wolf came in at the door he saw the
cats eyes glowing in the dark, and took
them for live Goals on the hearth. But
when he came up closer the cat flew at
him, nearly scratching his eyes out.
The horse got up from the straw and
gave him kick in the ribs. And when
the wolf turned to flee from the hut the
COW butted him against the wall with
her horns. The hen sprang clucking
loudly on his back, whilst the duck aud
the goose nipped his legs with their
bills, and just as he, frightened aud
bewildered with the reception he had
got, managed to escape out of the door,
the cock on the chimneypiece burst out
with loud, jubilant growing. Master
Wolf came back to his comrades in a
very sad plight. "That was nice task
you gave me-" he said, reproachfully.
"The hut is tenanted by witches.
When l came in and went up to the
hearth where saw some Goals burn
ing, the vixen of cook flew at me and
nearly scratched my eyes out, the groom
got up from the corner where he had
been lying, and almost broke my ribs
with blow of his fail, whilst the
farmer himself, selling a pitchfork,
thrust me rudely against the wall. His
wife struck me on the back with her
distaff, and two of her maids crying
Back, back stuck me again and again
in the legs with their shears. And just
as / was fleeing from the house, another
maid, from a room under the roof, cried
out, in terrible voice, Bring him to
me-to me-" On hearing this tale of
their scout, the whole pack of wolves
took to their heels and ran off as fast as
they could.-Harper's Young People,

My Baby Boy No More.

where is my baby boy7" you ask,
That am here alone
SO sadly quiet at my task,
Well, dear-the baby's gone;
Gone from my life from day to day,
Gone from my tender rule
No. not to heaven, not yet pray,
But merely gone to school.
His little kits are laid away,
Within my bureau drawer,
He proudly shed them yesterday,
My baby boy no more
Last night the barber cut his hair,
He thought was fool
To cry about those ringlets fair,
But-baby's gone to school
And I-if I'd be brave and wise
should not thus have cried.
But (stil the tears spring to my eye)
Last night-my baby died;
And in his place my big boy"
SO manly, brave and COOL
But life has lost its purest Joy,
Since he has gone to school,
The time when he will be man
Seems now so very near,
The time when I must strive and plan
To keep my boy so dear
From all the sinking sands OF life,
From being bad mems tool
feel the shadow of that strife
Now he has gone to school.
Oh Heavenly Father, thou who gave
My precious child to me,
pray thee. through the years, to save
And keep him close to thee.
That conscience, heart, and eyes, may stay
All clear as sunlit pool,
That he may be as pure Away
As when he went to school-Ethei 81 coison'
