ape JUDGE'S FABLES. Zo RLOnOINE, THE HART AND THE HUNTER. HE hart was once drinking from a pool and surveying with pride the noble figure he made. “Ah,” he cried, “where can you find more noble antlers than mine? Ido but wish I had stockier legs to bear so noble a crown—such a pity.they are so slim.” At that moment a trapper ap- proached and sent a lasso over his antlers, making him a hopeless captive. Soon after he was sold to a mining-implement trader, who packed a huge jag of out- fittings on bis antlers and forced him to trek to the Klondike. “Ab,” said the hart, “it is lucky that I am possessed of thin legs, else my cruel task-master would have packed a jag on these Jonah antlers I wear that would have broken my neck ere Skag- way had been accomplished.” Moral—We never know when we are well off.
