Perhaps my readers ought to know
That these things happened long ago
In days of fable-those old times
That poets tell of in their rhymes.
When sylphs rode round on every
breeze,
When breads danced on elitf and
mountains,
When dryads dwelt in hollow trees
And naiads lived in brook and fountain.
Now when the water nymph that
drunk
The wave where woodman's axe had
sunk
Heard his lament. she took her clothes
And put them on, and gently rose;
And when she saw him looking at her
She asked him what could be the
matter.
He told her frankly all about it.
Ny friend said she, Il do not doubt

Iheard it plunge: and though 1t lies
Below the reach of mortal eyes,
Be of good courage, never mind it.
I'll down and see if can find it,
She sank. Almost as quick as thought
She rose again. and with her brought
An axe of silver. The rich prize
She held UP before Woodman's eyes
And with smile and courtesy,
rs this the axe You lost?" said she.
'oh mo-" said he and shook his head.
Well then" the smiling naiad said
Here on the bank let this remain,
And I'll go down and try again"
She sank; and instantly behold,
Up came she with an axe of gold.
Pure gold. the helve, the head,
is this the axe you lost?" she said.
"Oh no, no, no" the man replied
This is not my old axe" and sighed,
This is of very different ore,
And worth no doubt a great deal more
And much more brightly does it shine
But tbs not mine-no 'tis not mine"
Indeed" said she, well, let this lie
With that one and once more I'll try"
She sank; she rose above the tide.
Aye that is my axet" Woodman cried
As soon as she could show it,
Il know it is said she. Il know it.
thought your hosesty to try;
And since you cannot tell lie.
At least, sir. since you have not told

The steel, the silver axe and gold one
Are all your own; to all the three
You're welcome for your honesty"

HONESTY THE BEST POLICY.
Honestus Woodman's cottage stood
Just by the margin of the wood,
Through which a river deep and slow.
By old trees shaded, used to flow.
He was not rich, this Mr.. woodman.
But yet he was an honest good man
Who got his living by his labor;
And Mr.. Cheatim was his neighbor.
The little Woodmans, though twas
cool.
For it was now quite late in autumn,
Went daily to a village school.
Where good lady came and taught
EN-.
Their summer jackets patched and thin
(For Mrs. Woodman did not patch in,)
Were buttoned up close to the chin
And each, because he had no satchel,
Carried his slate beneath his arm
That nothing hard might scratch or
knock it,
While nuts and apples from the farm
And his Young Reader" stuffed his
pocket.
One morning Mr.. woodman rose,
Went out and by his reddening nose,
Finding it colder grew and colder.
He took his axe upon his shoulder.
For in such keen and frosty weather.
His family, if kept together
Would almost freeze, and this he knew
well,
Without good supply of fuel.
So out he went and near the brook
His stand beside a tree he took:
Twas large, one of the largest oaks.
And long the sturdy woodman's
strokes
AS on it's trunk with force they fell
At last good deal out of breath,
Though not as the boys say tired to
DEATH"
Honestus Woodman thought it best
To stop little while and rest.
But turning to sit down he tripped
Against his axe and in it slipped.
Down. down it sank; his axe was gone;
And thus aloud he made his moan.
Alas! alas! my axe is lost!
An axe l valued as a brother!
An axe that so much money costl
All me, where shall I get another?"
