Zbc ITortoise. ! T happened i me day that the animals dwelling in a i;Teat forest had been amusing themselves by running races, for which they received as prizes rolls of sheepskin. After a number of races had been run, a tough old Tortoise, who had been watching the fun, abstracted himself from the crowd of bystanders and presented himself as a candidate. My friends, said the Tortoise, 1 have seen much racing in my time, and in my youth was accounted not ill as a racer myself. Come, what say you to a race with me. I challenge any-one. It is needless to say that the animals smiled disdainfully, and an impudent Jackdaw shrieked with laughter. The Tortoise, however, called on the awful Owl, who ruled over the revels, for support, and the Owl recognized his right to challenge. On appeal being made to certain animals it was observed that the noble Lion sniffed the air haughtily, the graceful Gazelle giggled, and the strutting Jackdaw indulged in another shriek. The only one who could be prevailed on to race was the timid Hare, who turned pale at the very sight of a root, and was terrified at the higher branches in the Forest of Learning. She felt sure she could beat such a stiff old Tortoise, so she cried: Come on. I will start from my hollow tree and race past three goals, and since you are out of practice, and are so slow, I will give you handicap from the third. We shall see who will get to be master. Having made these injudicious remarks, the young animal cocked her ears and pawed the line. They started at once, and the Tortoise went jogging along, without a moment ' s stopping, at his usual steady pace. The Hare, treating the whole matter very lightly, thought she would take a little nap just after she passed the stream of semi- annuals, as she should soon overtake the Tortoise. Meanwhile the Tortoise plodded on, and the Hare, oversleeping herself, barely reached the first goal in time to see that the Tortoise had arrived at the fourth, and, clutching his twii sheepskins, was sleeping peacefully. ==?=3k .: ---
