Once upon time there was a great
king, who employed his people to
weave for him. The silk and woof
and patterns were also given by the
king, and he looked for diligent work
people. He was very indulgent. and
told them when any difficulty arose to
send for him and he would help them
and never to Gear troubling him, -bu,
to ask for help and instruction.
Among many men and women busy
at their homes was one little child
whom the king did not think too
young TO work. Often alone at her
work. cheerfully and patiently she la
bored One day. when the men and
women were distressed at the sight
OF their faiIures-the silks were tan
gled and the weaving unlike the pat

and said:
Tell us how IT is that you are al
ways 30 happy in your work. We are
always in difhculties."
