Wolf, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea, which should justify to the Lamb himself his right to eat him. He thus addressed him:"Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf, "You feed in my pasture."
"No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my well." "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother′s milk is both food and drink to me." On which the Wolf seized him, and ate him up, saying, "Well! I won′t remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations."The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.

Father had a family of sons who were perpetually quarrelling among themselves. When he failed to heal their disputes by his exhortations, he determined to give them a practical illustration of the evils of disunion; and for this purpose he one day told them to bring him a bundle of sticks. When they had done so, he placed the faggot into the hands of each of them in succession, and ordered them to break it in pieces. They each tried with all their strength, and were not able to do it.
He next unclosed the faggot, and took the sticks separately, one by one, and again put them into their hands, on which they broke them easily. He then addressed them in these words: "My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this faggot, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies; but if you are divided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks."

A RICH Woman having returned from abroad disembarked at the foot of Knee-deep Street,and was about to walk to her hotel through the mud.
"Madam," said a Policeman,"I cannot permit you to do that;you would soil your shoes and stockings."
"Oh,that is of no importance,really," replied the Rich Woman,with a cheerful smile.
"But,madam,it is needless;from the wharf to the hotel,as you observe,extends an unbroken line of prostrate newspaper men who
crave the honour of having you walk upon them."
"In that case," she said,seating herself in a doorway and unlocking her satchel,"I shall have to put on my rubber boots."

A man was going to the house of some rich person. As he went along the road,he saw a box of good apples at the side of the road. He said,"I do not want to eat those apples;for the rich man will give me much food;
he will give me very nice food to eat." Then he took the apples and threw them away into the dust.
He went on and came to a river. The river had become very big;so he could not go over it. He waited for some time;then he said,"I cannot go to the rich mans house today,for I cannot get over the river."
He began to go home. He had eaten no food that day. He began to want food. He came to the apples,and he was glad to take them out of the dust and eat them.
Do not throw good things away;you may be glad to have them at some other time.
