FABLES OF /ESOP THE SLAVE. A tortoise, who had grown tired of crawling about on the ground, and wanted to sec the world, published- a. notice that if any bird would take him up into the air and show him the world, he would reward him by giving him a number of precious stones which he knew her of precious stones which he knew to he hidden in a certain place in the ground. The eagle undertook to do as he wished, and carried the tortoise high up in the air to look round. Then he asked him to tell him where the precious stones were hidden, but the tortoise, who had never seen any precious stone 3, of course could not keep' his promise, so the eagle dropped him. and he was dashed to pieces on the rocks far below. People w'ho do not keep their promises are sure to suffer for it soone.r or later.

Bates is in the next room, and would like to see your new gun. 55 The old man was a bit of a crank on guns, and. delighted with the chance of exhibiting his latest purchase, he took it from the rack and went to see Algy. And to this day he cannot understand why that young man jumped out of a second-story window at the first sight of him.
