THE FOOLISH LAD.
BY A. B. LIE MASSENA.

%HERE once lived a very foolish
boy, who cared more for his sell
fish pleasure than anything else.
He would much rather spend his morn
ings down by the river-bank than at
tend school, and under no eircum-
stances was he ever known to will
ingly help his mother when she wished
anything done around the farm. His
greatest pleasure was t. lie under a
shady apple-tree and idly dream that
he was a very rich man and plan what
he was going to do with his imaginary
wealth.
One morning he was day-dreaming,
as usual, and wasting the precious
hours that would never return, when
he was startled to see & little old man
rise up of the water and stand be-
fore him on the river edge. He was
still further surprised when the old
man addressed him thus:
my lad. / am the king of the Wish
Fairies who dwell in this stream, and
I have long noticed how o are vast
ing your days in idle dreams, instead
of working for your own advancement
in the world. 1 have come to you to
give you one chance to make a name
for yourself by granting you two
wishes. Choose, therefore, wisely and
well."' With these words he dis
appeared.
The foolish lad was very happy when
he heard this, for he saw all of his
dreams about to come true. He imme-
diately began to think what he would
like to have best of all for his first
wish. While he was thus engaged he
noticed a large red apple hanging al
most directly overhead. 1t locke very
tempting and luscious, and, almost un-
consciously, he said to himself, my,
but that apple looks good, / wish 1t
was In my mouth"
Horrors! The apple was instantly
transferred from the tree and wedged
firmly in the boys mouth. 1t was a
large apple, and stretched his Jaws
almost to the breaking point. He
~frantically tugged at the apple, but
could not move 1t. He could not speak
or breathe. What was to be done?
ooh, I wish the pesky thing was
out" he thought.
Quick as a flash the apple was lying
on the ground. and the Wish King
ono more stood before him.
Foolish lad" he said; you have
failed In this test, as in all others.
When you might have chosen wisdom
and goodness and become respected
