AN APPLE.

AN APPLE.
Jerry and Frank were two horses
hitched to yellow car. All the
morning they had gone back and
forth, patiently, with only a rest
now and then, but now Jerry was be-
ginning to feel rebellious; he was
tired, and it was getting hotter every
square. Jerry was not by nature
such meek horse as was Frank, but
then, too, he had not been city car
horse as long as Frank had been.
Frank knew the only way to do was
to go on and on, whether you were
tired or not; the driver had it all to
say.
By the time Jerry had made up
his mind to be stubborn, the driver
stopped the horses on a switch to
wait until the car a square away had
passed.
Right there on the ourbstone sat
little bootblack. On the pavement
lay his torn cap, and he let people
60 by unnoticed as he rubbed an
apple on his jacket to make it shiny.
A sweet lady had given it to him,
and he was just over his surprise
and getting ready to eat it, when he
looked up and saw Jerry standing
near and looking at the apple long
ingly with his pitiful eyes.
The little bootblack understood.
There was not much time to think,
the other car was not far away, but
he wondered how he would feel IL
4 IL
flash he broke the apple in two, and
put one piece in Jerry's mouth and
the other in Franks. 1t was de-
licious.
Jerry forgot about being stubborn
as they started on, and Frank forgot
his aching bones, while the little
ragged bootblack ran away, calling
after a man with dusty shoes, Have
