The Wolf and the Hare.

A Wolf one day stopped a Hare in the public path and said : “Come, now, I want a candid expression of opinion. Am I not a better looking animal than the Fox?” “To be honest abont it, you are pot,” replied the Hare. “Ah! then you insult me! Take that —and that—and that.” The poor Hare was knocked down and rolled over and cuffed about, and* her life waa saved only by her superior" fleetness. Moral -It is better to agree with a Wolf near at hand than to praise a Fox five miles away. —Detroit Free Press. Do all that yon can to stand, and then fear lest yon fall, and by the. grace of God yon are safe. —Edu ards. v -*'■ ' it
