AMI lI. HARD ON Bill!
A Wise Horse.

This Is true story about horse
named Solomon. His master named him
Solomon because he was so wise. One
day a blacksmith put new shoe on
one of Solomon's feet. "A few days
after this Solomon was turned into u
field to Craze. "A boy soon came rum
ing to tell the master that some one
had stolen the horse. why do you
think so?" asked the master. The
gate has been taken down and left on
the ground, and the horse Is gone"
Maybe old Sol did that himself. II we
can find the priRt of his teeth on tho
gate. we shall know that he let himself
out" So they went to the gate. and
there on the top OF It was tile print Of
a horses teeth. While they We're still
looking at the gate, the blacksmith
came along. Have you seen anything
OF old Sol to-day?" they asked the
smith. Yes, Sol has Just left my shop.
He told me did very poor work when
I put that shoe on him" what do you
mean? How could he tell you such a
5thinE?" This morning he came to my
shop. He held up the foot OH which
had put the shoe. He looked at inc as
much as to say. see this shoe you put
on me. 1t hurts me. Take 1t off and
put on one that will not hurt. looked
at his foot and saw that 4 had put the
shoe on wrong. Sol stood still while I
took it off and put It on so that it would
not hurt him. When was through,
he gave me cheerful neigh and tro1-
ted off towards home." The master
went back to the field and found old
Sol quietly eating clover

Washington 5 Statue.

The statue of Washing ton, which
stands in the hall of our State Capitol
Building, was erected the 14th of May,
1896 1t is one of the finest pieces
of sculpture in the world and the most
perfect representation of Washington
that exists
The General Assembly, soon after
the declaration of peace. decided to
have statue OF Washington. and the
celebrated sculptor Houdon, of France.
was to make it. In order to get a
perfect likeness 1t was necessary for
IIoudon to come to America. He spent
two weeks with Washington at Mount
Vernon. and made a. cast of his face,
head and upper portion of the body.
The statue presents the figure erect.
the head uncovered, the sword on the
left, the cane in the right hand--rep-
rcsentlng what he had expressed to
tho General Assembly of Virginia. the
subsection OF the military to the civil
power. The fasces and ploughshare
by his side. the first representing a,i-
Sthority. power and honor: the second
peaceful arts. The dress is the one
he wore In the service of his country.
The statue measures six feet two
inches and is his exact height
While our whole country looks with
pride upon this magnificent work of
art it was Virginia who before time
opportunity had fully developed the
civic virtues of Washington. She ac-
him the chief OF her sons
and erected this matchless statue.

GREEK STORIES.
Chapter l..
The Three Fatcs.

Long ago in ancient Greece the peo-
pie believed in the "Three Fates."
These fates. or sisters. vera very good.
and the Greeks believed that when a
child was born the fates would come
and give the child present or, gift.
The eldest of these sisters was Atropo.
SHE was tall and graceful with black
hair and very stern face. Lachlsls
was the name of the sister next to
Atropo. She had dark hair, dark eyes
and a stern face. Tho Youngest Sis
,ter's name was Clotfo. She had dark
hair, dark eyes and stern face. So
therefore the sisters all resembled
each other.
Whenever artists painted their pic
lures Atropo held q large pair OF
shears. Lachisis held a measuring rod.
and Clotho held a. distaff In one hand
and with the other hand she spun q
very fne thread, This represented
'Clotho as spinning or making the life,
Lachisis as measuring the thread or
life, and Atropo as cutting or ending
the life.
