She was the joy of her mother's heart, and to please +her, the good woman made her a little scarlet cloak and hood, and the +child looked so pretty in it that everybody called her Little Red +Riding-Hood.</p> + + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 437px;"> +<img src="images/i-008.jpg" width="437" height="650" alt="RED RIDING HOOD PREPARING FOR HER JOURNEY." title="" /> +<span class="caption">RED RIDING HOOD PREPARING FOR HER JOURNEY.</span> +</div> + +<p>One day her mother told her she meant to send her to her grandmother—a +very old woman who lived in the heart of the wood—to take her some +fresh butter and new-laid eggs and a nice cake. Little Red Riding-Hood +was very pleased to be sent on this errand, for she liked to do kind +things, and it was so very long since she had seen her grandmother +that she had almost forgotten what the dame looked like.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 433px;"> +<img src="images/i-009.jpg" width="433" height="650" alt="LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD GATHERING FLOWERS." title="" /> +<span class="caption">LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD GATHERING FLOWERS.</span> +</div> + + +<h3><i>THE WOLF.</i></h3> + +<p>The sun was shining brightly, but it was not too warm under the shade of +the old trees, and Red Riding-Hood sang with glee as she gathered a +great bunch of wild flowers to give to her grandmother. She sang so +sweetly that a cushat dove flew down from a tree and followed her. Now, +it happened that a wolf, a very cruel, greedy creature, heard her song +also, and longed to eat her for his breakfast, but he knew Hugh, the +woodman, was at work very near, with his great dog, and he feared they +might hear Red Riding-Hood cry out, if he frightened her, and then they +would kill him. So he came up to her very gently and said, "Good day, +Little Red Riding-Hood; where are you going?"</p> + +<p>“To see my grandmother,” said the child, "and take her a present from +mother of eggs and butter and cake."</p> + +<p>“Where does your grandmamma live?” asked the wolf.</p> + +<p>“Quite in the middle of the wood,” she replied.</p> + +<p>“Oh! I think I know the house. Good day, Red Riding-Hood.” And the wolf +ran off as fast as he could</p> + + +<h3><i>AT PLAY IN THE WOOD.</i></h3> + +<p>Little Red Riding-Hood was not in a hurry, and there were many things to +amuse her in the wood. She ran after the white and yellow butterflies +that danced before her, and sometimes she caught one, but she always let +it go again, for she never liked to hurt any creature.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 428px;"> +<img src="images/i-012.jpg" width="428" height="650" alt="THE WOLF FOLLOWS LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD." title="" /> +<span class="caption">THE WOLF FOLLOWS LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD.</span> +</div> + +<p>And then there were the merry, cunning little squirrels to watch, +cracking nuts on the branches of the old trees, and every now and then a +rabbit would hurry away through the tall ferns, or a great bee come +buzzing near her, and she would stop to watch it gathering honey from +the flowers, and wild thyme. So she went on very slowly. By-and-by she +saw Hugh, the woodman. "Where are you going, Little Red Riding-Hood," +said he, “all alone?”</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 435px;"> +<img src="images/i-013.jpg" width="435" height="650" alt="LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD CATCHING BUTTERFLIES." title="" /> +<span class="caption">LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD CATCHING BUTTERFLIES.</span> +</div> + +<p>“I am going to my grandmamma's,” said the child. "Good day; I must make +haste now, for it grows late."</p> + + +<h3><i>GRANDMOTHER AND THE WOLF.</i></h3> + +<p>While Little Red Riding-Hood was at play in the wood, the great wolf +galloped on as fast as he could to the old woman's house. Grandmother +lived all by herself, but once or twice a-day a neighbour's child came +to tidy her house and get her food. Now, grandmother was very feeble, +and often kept her bed; and it happened that she was in bed the day +Little Red Riding-Hood went to see her. When the wolf reached the +cottage door he tapped.</p> + +<p>“Who is there?” asked the old dame.</p> + +<p>“Little Red Riding-Hood, granny,” said the wolf, trying to speak like +the child.</p> + +<p>“Come in, my dear,” said the old lady, who was a little deaf. "Pull the +string and the latch will come up."</p> + +<p>The wolf did as she told him, went in, and you may think how frightened +poor grandmother was when she saw him standing by her bed instead of +Little Red Riding-Hood.</p> + + +<h3><i>RED RIDING-HOOD AT THE DOOR.</i></h3> + +<p>Very soon the wolf, who was quite hungry after his run, eat up poor +grandmother. Indeed, she was not enough for his breakfast, and so he +thought he would like to eat sweet Red Riding-Hood also. Therefore he +dressed himself in granny's nightcap and got into bed, and waited for +the child to knock at the door. But he waited a long time.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 443px;"> +<img src="images/i-016.jpg" width="443" height="650" alt="THE WOLF AT THE GRANDMOTHER'S COTTAGE." title="" /> +<span class="caption">THE WOLF AT THE GRANDMOTHER'S COTTAGE.</span> +</div> + +<p>By and by Little Red Riding-Hood reached her grandmother's house, and +tapped at the door.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 435px;"> +<img src="images/i-017.jpg" width="435" height="650" alt="RED RIDING HOOD AT HER GRANDMOTHER'S DOOR." title="" /> +<span class="caption">RED RIDING HOOD AT HER GRANDMOTHER'S DOOR.</span> +</div> + +<p>“Come in,” said the wolf, in a squeaking voice. "Pull the string, and +the latch will come up."</p> + +<p>Red Riding-Hood thought grandmother must have a cold, she spoke so +hoarsely; but she went in at once, and there lay her granny, as she +thought, in bed.</p> + +<p>“If you please, grandmamma, mother sends you some butter and eggs,” she +said.</p> + +<p>“Come here, dear,” said the wicked wolf, “and let me kiss you,” and Red +Riding-Hood obeyed.</p> + + +<h3><i>THE WOLF AND THE CHILD.</i></h3> + +<p>But when Red Riding-Hood saw the wolf she felt frightened. She had +nearly forgotten grandmother, but she did not think she had been so +ugly.</p> + +<p>“Grandmamma,” she said, “what a great nose you have.”</p> + +<p>“All the better to smell with, my dear,” said the wolf.</p> + +<p>“And, grandmamma, what large ears you have.”</p> + +<p>“All the better to hear with, my dear.”</p> + +<p>“Ah! grandmamma, and what large eyes you have.”</p> + +<p>“All the better to see with, my dear,” said the wolf, showing his teeth, +for he longed to eat the child up.</p> + +<p>“Oh, grandmamma, and what great teeth you have!” said Red Riding-Hood.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 427px;"> +<img src="images/i-020.jpg" width="427" height="650" alt="LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD DISCOVERS THE WOLF." title="" /> +<span class="caption">LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD DISCOVERS THE WOLF.</span> +</div> + +<p>“All the better to eat you up with,” growled the wolf, and, jumping out +of bed, he rushed at Red Riding-Hood and would have eaten her up, but +just at that minute the door flew open and a great dog tore him down. +The wolf and the dog were still fighting when Hugh, the woodman, came in +and killed the wicked wolf with his axe.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 440px;"> +<img src="images/i-021.jpg" width="440" height="650" alt="DEATH OF THE WOLF." title="" /> +<span class="caption">DEATH OF THE WOLF.</span> +</div> + + +<h3><i>DEATH OF THE WOLF.</i></h3> + +<p>Little Red Riding-Hood threw her arms round the woodman Hugh's neck and +kissed him, and thanked him again and again.</p> + +<p>“Oh, you good, kind Hugh,” she said, "how did you know the wolf was +here, in time to save me?"</p> + +<p>“Well,” said Hugh, "when you were gone by, I remembered that a wolf had +been seen about the wood lately, and I thought I would just come after +you and see if you were safe. When we came near grandmother's house Trim +sniffed and ran to the door and whined, and then he pushed it open—you +had not shut it close—and rushed in, and I followed him, and between us +we have killed the wolf."</p> + +<p>Then Hugh took the child home, and her mother and father could not thank +him enough for saving Little Red Riding-Hood.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 200px;"> +<img src="images/i-170.jpg" width="200" height="215" alt="" title="decoration" /> +</div> + +<hr style="width: 65%;" /> +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 400px;"> +<img src="images/i-023.jpg" width="400" height="56" alt="" title="decoration" /> +</div> + +<h3><a name="PUSS_IN_BOOTS" id="PUSS_IN_BOOTS"></a>PUSS IN BOOTS.</h3> + + +<p>Once upon a time there was a miller who had three sons. When he died he +left his mill to the eldest son, his ass to the second son, and his cat +to the youngest, who had always been his favourite.</p> + +<p>The two eldest sons resolved to live together; but they would not let +their brother live with them, because he had only a cat. So the poor lad +was very sorrowful, and wondered what he should do to get his bread. +While he was sitting thinking about it, Puss jumped up on the table, and +touched him with her paw.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 427px;"> +<img src="images/i-024.jpg" width="427" height="650" alt="PUSS CONSOLING THE MILLER'S SON." title="" /> +<span class="caption">PUSS CONSOLING THE MILLER'S SON.</span> +</div> + +<p>“My dear master,” she said, "do not fret. I will get your living for +you. Only you must buy me a pair of boots and give me a bag."</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 440px;"> +<img src="images/i-025.jpg" width="440" height="650" alt="PUSS CATCHING THE RABBITS." title="" /> +<span class="caption">PUSS CATCHING THE RABBITS.</span> +</div> + +<p>The miller's son had very little money, but he thought it such a +wonderful thing to hear a cat talk that he could not refuse her request. +So he took Puss to the shoemaker's, and got him to make her a very smart +pair of boots, and then he gave her a nice large bag.</p> + + +<h3><i>THE RABBIT WARREN.</i></h3> + +<p>Now, not far from the mill there was a rabbit warren, and Puss resolved +to catch some rabbits for dinner. So she put some lettuce leaves and +fine parsley into her bag, went into the warren, and held the bag very +quietly open, hiding herself behind it. And little greedy rabbits, who +knew no better, ran into it, to have a feast. Directly they were safe +in, Puss pulled the string of the bag, and carried them off to her +master. The miller's son killed them, and cooked one for dinner; but +Puss took away the other, which was a very fine one, and hung it up for +their next day's meal.</p> + +<p>But although their larder was thus provided, early the next day Puss +took her bag and went again into the warren, and in the same manner +caught two more fine young rabbits. But instead of carrying them home +she walked to the king's palace and knocked at the door.</p> + + +<h3><i>PUSS AT THE PALACE.</i></h3> + +<p>The king's porter asked who was there. "I have brought a present to the +king," said Puss. “Please let me see his majesty.”</p> + +<p>The porter let her in, and when Puss came into the king's presence she +made a low bow, and, taking a fine rabbit out of her bag, said, "My Lord +Marquis of Carrabas sends this rabbit to your majesty with his +respects."</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 436px;"> +<img src="images/i-028.jpg" width="436" height="650" alt="PUSS MAKES A PRESENT TO THE KING." title="" /> +<span class="caption">PUSS MAKES A PRESENT TO THE KING.</span> +</div> + +<p>“I am much obliged to the marquis,” said the king, and he ordered his +head cook to dress the rabbit for dinner.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 431px;"> +<img src="images/i-029.jpg" width="431" height="650" alt="PUSS CALLS ON THE OGRE." title="" /> +<span class="caption">PUSS CALLS ON THE OGRE.</span> +</div> + +<p>By the king's side sat his daughter, a very beautiful lady. She ordered +one of the attendants to give Puss a good cup of cream, which she +liked very much; and she went home and told her master all she had done. +The miller's son laughed; but every morning Puss caught a rabbit, and +carried it to the palace with the same message.</p> + + +<h3><i>THE OGRE.</i></h3> + +<p>Now, in that country there lived a cruel ogre, who used to eat children, +so everybody was afraid of him; but nobody could kill him, he was such a +giant. One day Puss went to call on him. He received her civilly, for he +did not care to eat cats, so Puss sat down, and began to talk:—"I +hear," she said, "great Ogre, that you are so clever, that you can turn +yourself into any creature you please."</p> + +<p>“Yes, so I can,” said the ogre.</p> + +<p>“Dear me,” said Puss, "how much I should like to see your ogreship do +it."</p> + +<p>Then the ogre, who liked to show how clever he was, turned himself into +a lion, and roared so loudly that Puss was quite frightened, and jumped +out of the way. Then he changed back into an ogre again. Puss praised +him a great deal, and then said, "Can your ogreship become a small +animal as well as a large one?"</p> + +<p>“Oh, yes,” said the vain ogre; and he changed himself into a little +mouse. Directly Puss saw him in this form she jumped at him and killed +him on the spot.</p> + + +<h3><i>THE MARQUIS OF CARRABAS.</i></h3> + +<p>Then Puss ran home and bade her master go and bathe in the river, and he +should see what she would do for him. The miller's son obeyed; and while +he was in the water, Puss took away all his clothes, and hid them under +a large stone. Now, the king's carriage came in sight soon after, just +as Puss had expected, for he always drove in that direction, and +directly she saw it, she began to cry very loudly, "Help, help, for +my Lord the Marquis of Carrabas." The king put his head out, and asked +what was the matter.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 437px;"> +<img src="images/i-032.jpg" width="437" height="650" alt="PUSS ASKS HELP FOR HIS MASTER." title="" /> +<span class="caption">PUSS ASKS HELP FOR HIS MASTER.</span> +</div> + +<p>“Oh, your majesty,” said Puss, "my master the marquis was bathing, and +some one has taken away his clothes. He will catch the cramp and be +drowned."</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 434px;"> +<img src="images/i-033.jpg" width="434" height="650" alt="PUSS THREATENS THE REAPERS." title="" /> +<span class="caption">PUSS THREATENS THE REAPERS.</span> +</div> + +<p>Then the king ordered one of his attendants to ride back to the palace +and get a suit of his own clothes for the marquis, "who had so often +sent him gifts," he said. And when they were brought, Puss took them to +her master, and helped him to dress in them.</p> + + +<h3><i>PUSS FRIGHTENS THE REAPERS.</i></h3> + +<p>The miller's son looked quite like a gentleman in the king's clothes, +and when he went to thank his majesty for them, the king asked him to +get into the coach and he would drive him home. Then Puss told the +coachman where to go, and ran on before and came to some reapers. +"Reapers," said she, "if the king asks you whose field this is, say it +belongs to the Marquis of Carrabas; if you don't say so, you shall be +chopped up as small as mincemeat."</p> + +<p>The reapers were so frightened that they promised to obey her. And she +ran on and told all the other labourers on the road to say the same. So +when the king asked, “To whom do these fine fields belong?” the reapers +answered, “To the Marquis of Carrabas.” The herdsmen said the same of +the cattle, and the king, turning to the miller's son, said, "My lord, +you have a fine property." But all had belonged really to the ogre, for +it was to his castle the cunning cat had told the coachman to drive.</p> + + +<h3><i>THE CASTLE.</i></h3> + +<p>At last the coach stopped at the Ogre's castle, and Puss came out, and +bowing very low, said, "Your majesty and the princess are welcome to +the castle of my Lord Marquis of Carrabas."</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 427px;"> +<img src="images/i-036.jpg" width="427" height="650" alt="THE KING AND PRINCESS VISIT THE MARQUIS." title="" /> +<span class="caption">THE KING AND PRINCESS VISIT THE MARQUIS.</span> +</div> + +<p>The king was delighted, for it was indeed a very nice castle, full of +riches. They sat down to a great feast, which Puss ordered to be served, +and the king was so pleased with the miller's son and thought him such a +good match for the princess, that he invited him to court, and in a +little while gave him his daughter for his wife, and made him a prince.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 435px;"> +<img src="images/i-037.jpg" width="435" height="650"

+<p>Jack was a giddy, thoughtless boy, but very kind-hearted and +affectionate. There had been a hard winter, and after it the poor woman +had suffered from fever and ague. Jack did no work as yet, and by +degrees they grew dreadfully poor. The widow saw that there was no means +of keeping Jack and herself from starvation but by selling her cow; so +one morning she said to her son, "I am too weak to go myself, Jack, so +you must take the cow to market for me, and sell her." Jack liked going +to market to sell the cow very much; but as he was on the way, he met a +butcher who had some beautiful beans in his hand. Jack stopped to look +at them, and the butcher told the boy that they were of great value, and +persuaded him to sell the cow for them! And Jack was so silly as to +consent to this foolish bargain.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 438px;"> +<img src="images/i-073.jpg" width="438" height="650" alt="THE BEAN-STALK GROWS OUT OF SIGHT IN A NIGHT." title="" /> +<span class="caption">THE BEAN-STALK GROWS OUT OF SIGHT IN A NIGHT.</span> +</div> + +<p>When he brought them home to his mother instead of the money she +expected for her nice cow, she was very vexed and shed many tears, +scolding Jack for his folly. He was very sorry; but, he said, he might +as well make the best of his bargain, so he put the seed-beans into the +ground close by the side of the steep hill under shelter of which their +cottage was built, and went to bed. The next morning when he got up, he +found that the beans had grown, till the bean stalks reached right over +the top of the hill, and were lost to his sight. Greatly surprised, he +called his mother, and they both gazed in silent wonder at the +bean-stalk, which was not only of great height, but was thick enough to +bear Jack's weight.</p> + +<p>“I wonder where it goes?” said Jack to his mother; "I think I will climb +up and see."</p> + +<p>His mother wished him not to venture up this strange ladder, but Jack +coaxed her to give her consent to the attempt, for he was certain there +must be something wonderful in the bean-stalk.</p> + +<p>Jack instantly began to climb, and went up and up on the ladder-like +bean till every thing he had left behind him, the cottage, the village, +and even the tall church tower, looked quite little, and still he did +not see the top of the bean stalk.</p> + +<p>Jack felt a little tired, and thought for a moment that he would go back +again; but he was a very persevering boy, and he knew that the way to +succeed in anything is not to give up. So after resting for a moment he +went on, and at last reached the top of the bean, and found himself in a +beautiful country, finely wooded; and not far from the place where he +had got off the bean-stalk stood a fine and strong castle.</p> + +<p>Jack wondered very much that he had never heard of or seen this castle +before; but when he reflected on the subject, he saw that it was as much +separated from the village by the perpendicular rock on which it stood +as if it were in another land.</p> + +<p>While Jack was standing looking at the castle, a very strange-looking +woman came out of the wood and advanced towards him.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 436px;"> +<img src="images/i-076.jpg" width="436" height="650" alt="JACK CLIMBS THE BEAN-STALK." title="" /> +<span class="caption">JACK CLIMBS THE BEAN-STALK.</span> +</div> + +<p>Jack took off his hat to the old lady, and she said, pointing to the +castle, "Boy, that castle belongs to you. A wicked giant killed your +father, and took it from your mother; try and win it back from the +monster who now has it." As she ceased speaking she suddenly +disappeared, and of course Jack knew she was a fairy.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 436px;"> +<img src="images/i-077.jpg" width="436" height="650" alt="JACK ASKS ABOUT THE CASTLE." title="" /> +<span class="caption">JACK ASKS ABOUT THE CASTLE.</span> +</div> + +<p>He was much surprised; however, he walked up to the castle door and +knocked, and an old giantess came out. She did not wait till he spoke, +but pulled him in at once, for she thought he would make a nice supper +for her when her husband was asleep. Just at that moment, however, she +heard the giant's step approaching, so she put Jack into a press, and +told him to hide there, or the giant would eat him. As soon as the Ogre +came in, he cried in a terrible voice</p> + +<p class="center"> +“Fee, fa, fie, fo, fum,<br /> +I smell the breath of an Englishman.” +</p> + +<p>“Oh!” said his wife, "there is nobody here. You only smell a crow that +is flying over the chimney." Then the giant sat down to dinner, which +was quite ready, and when he had eaten a whole sheep, he said, "Bring me +my hen."</p> + +<p>The giantess brought a hen, and put it on the table before him, and then +she went away. “Lay,” said the giant to the hen, and she laid a golden +egg. Jack could see quite plainly through a little hole which he had +bored in the door. Three times the giant said “Lay,” and each time the +hen laid a solid gold egg. Then the Ogre, being drowsy, shut his eyes, +and soon snored very loudly. Directly Jack found that the giant was +asleep, he stole out of the press, caught up the hen, ran out of the +room, opened the door of the castle, which the giant had left ajar, and +descended the bean-stalk as fast as he could go. His mother was glad to +see him again, and much surprised at seeing the hen, which laid them +three gold eggs every day. Jack's mother took them to the next town and +sold them, and soon grew quite rich. Some time afterwards Jack made +another journey up the bean-stalk to the giant's castle; but first he +dyed his hair and disguised himself. The old woman did not know him +again, and dragged him in as she had done before to eat him by-and-by; +but once more she heard her husband coming and hid him in the press, not +thinking that it was the same boy who had stolen the hen. She put him +into the same press, and bade him stay quite still there, or the giant +would eat him.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 435px;"> +<img src="images/i-080.jpg" width="435" height="650" alt="THE HEN THAT LAYS GOLDEN EGGS." title="" /> +<span class="caption">THE HEN THAT LAYS GOLDEN EGGS.</span> +</div> + +<p>Then the giant came in, saying:</p> + +<p class="center"> +“Fee, fa, fie, fo, fum,<br /> +I smell the breath of an Englishman.” +</p> + +<p>“Oh!” said his wife, "it is only the cowherd, who has just been here.

She instantly went and fetched two +large bags full of gold; and then left him to go about her usual +house-work.</p> + +<p>The Ogre counted out the gold twice over, and then put it into the bags +and tied them up. In a few minutes Jack heard him snore. He directly +crept out of the press, seized the bags, and hurrying out of the castle, +carried them home quite safely. Jack's mother was glad to see him safe +at home again, and for a long time she would not let him go up the +bean-stalk; but Jack knew he had not yet obeyed the fairy's command to +win back the castle, so after a time he set off once more on this +adventure, and tapped again at the castle door.</p> + +<p>The giantess, who was very stupid, did not know him again, but she +stopped a minute before she took him in. She feared another robbery; but +Jack's fresh cheeks looked so tempting that she could not resist him, +and so she bade him come in.</p> + +<p>But at that moment she heard her husband's step approaching.</p> + +<p>Afraid of losing her supper, the Ogress at once shut Jack in the press; +and she had hardly hidden him when the giant came in, saying as usual,</p> + +<p class="center"> +"Fee, fa, fie, fo, fum,<br /> +“I smell the blood of an Englishman.”<br /> +</p> + +<p>“Oh no!” said his wife, "it is only the shepherd, who has been up with a +sheep for your dinner."</p> + +<p>The giant sat down, and when he had eaten a whole sheep he said, "I +should like some music; bring me my harp."</p> + +<p>The Ogress went and brought a golden harp to him, set it on the table, +and went away. Then the Ogre said, “Play,” to the harp, and it played so +delightfully that Jack was charmed.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 436px;"> +<img src="images/i-084.jpg" width="436" height="650" alt="JACK TAKES THE TALKING HARP." title="" /> +<span class="caption">JACK TAKES THE TALKING HARP.</span> +</div> + +<p>By-and-by, however, the giant snored so loud that he could not hear the +music; and Jack quickly stole out, and seizing the harp, ran away with +it. But the harp was a fairy belonging to the giant, and as Jack ran, it +cried out, “Master! Master!” The giant woke up slowly and rushed after +Jack, but the boy was very nimble and outran him.

But what delighted the woman +most of all was a tiny cradle, made of a walnut shell, lined with +velvet, in which lay the prettiest baby ever seen, but it was only just +as large as a man's thumb. “See,” said the fairy, "your wish is granted. +Here is a baby for you. Take care of it; it is your own." The woman did +not know how to thank the fairy enough; she was so delighted, and the +queen went away quite pleased at having given so much happiness.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 434px;"> +<img src="images/i-089.jpg" width="434" height="650" alt="THE FAIRY QUEEN BRINGING TOM THUMB TO HIS MOTHER." title="" /> +<span class="caption">THE FAIRY QUEEN BRINGING TOM THUMB TO HIS MOTHER.</span> +</div> + +<p>Before the fairy went away, however, she gave the woman a little shirt +of spider's web and a doublet of thistle-down for the baby.</p> + +<p>When the farmer came home he was very much pleased.

The pudding fell to pieces in the +fall, and Tom, creeping out, went home to his mother, whom he found in +great trouble, because she could not find him.</p> + +<p>After this accident, Tom's mother never let him stay near her while she +was cooking, but she was obliged to take him with her when she went out +milking, for she dared not trust the little man in the house alone.</p> + +<p>A few days after his escape from the pudding, Tom went, with his mother, +into the fields to milk the cows, and for fear he should be blown away +by the wind, she tied him to a thistle with a small piece of thread.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 430px;"> +<img src="images/i-096.jpg" width="430" height="650" alt="THE COW EATS TOM." title="" /> +<span class="caption">THE COW EATS TOM.</span> +</div> + +<p>Very soon after, a cow eat up the thistle and swallowed Tom Thumb.

The giant was walking on the +battlements and thought at first that it was a foreign bird which lay at +his feet, but soon seeing that it was a small man, he picked Tom up with +his finger and thumb, and put the poor little creature into his great +mouth, but the fairy dwarf scratched the roof of the giant's mouth, and +bit his great tongue, and held on by his teeth till the ogre, in a +passion, took him out again and threw him over into the sea, which ran +beneath the castle walls.

id="THE_PETS"></a>THE PETS.</h2> + + +<h3><i>THE SHEEP.</i></h3> + +<p>The sheep is a very useful animal. Its wool, sheared off, makes us cloth +and flannel, and all kinds of woollen goods; and its flesh, called +mutton, is a chief part of our food. When sheep are little they are +called lambs, and are very playful, pretty creatures.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 432px;"> +<img src="images/i-152.jpg" width="432" height="650" alt="SHEEP." title="" /> +<span class="caption">SHEEP.</span> +</div> + +<p>Sheep soon learn to know the voice of their shepherd, and will follow +it. In Eastern countries the shepherd walks before his flock, and they +are led by his voice. There are dogs called sheep-dogs, which take care +of the flocks, and protect the sheep, and keep them together. In some +countries these dogs have often to fight with wolves, which attack the +sheep and carry them off whenever they can; but the dogs are quite able +to keep the wolf away when they are trained to do so.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 438px;"> +<img src="images/i-153.jpg" width="438" height="650" alt="RABBITS." title="" /> +<span class="caption">RABBITS.</span> +</div> + +<p>On the Scottish hills the sheep-dog is often obliged to seek his charge +in the snow-drifts, and to help get out a poor sheep or lamb which has +got buried in it. Sheep love green meadows and pure water. You remember, +I dare say, the beautiful Psalm, "The Lord is my shepherd, therefore I +shall lack nothing."</p> + + +<h3><i>RABBITS.</i></h3> + +<p>Are the favourite pets of boys. They are merry little creatures, and it +is an amusing sight to watch them running over the green turf about +their warren, when they are free. They have many enemies, however, such +as dogs, foxes, and weasels. But, in spite of their enemies, rabbits +live a merry life together.</p> + +<p>There are a great many different kinds of tame rabbits; some are white, +with pink eyes and long ears. Rabbits have many young ones. One pair +will have fifty-six little rabbits in a year. So it is lucky many other +creatures feed on them. If they were left to increase, they would soon +eat up every stalk of corn and all the green herbs.</p> + +<p>The native country of the rabbit is Spain. In the Orkney Islands, where +there are great numbers of rabbits, the wild ones are of a grey colour, +and in winter time almost white.</p> + +<p>The fur of the rabbit is much used for making hats. They are good for +food also.</p> + + +<h3><i>THE COW.</i></h3> + +<p>Is a very valuable animal; indeed I do not know what we should do +without her. She gives us milk and butter, cheese and cream; her skin is +of great use, and her flesh is often eaten as beef. Cows grow fond of +those who are kind to them.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 438px;"> +<img src="images/i-156.jpg" width="438" height="650" alt="COW AND CALF." title="" /> +<span class="caption">COW AND CALF.</span> +</div> + +<p>There are a great many different kinds of cows; some red, some black, +some brindled, white or spotted. Herefordshire cows have white faces. +The ancient Britons had great numbers of fine cows; and wild cattle +were common in our country seven hundred years ago. In the neighbourhood +of London, in Henry II.'s reign, there was a large forest which +contained a great many wild bulls and cows.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 437px;"> +<img src="images/i-157.jpg" width="437" height="650" alt="THE DONKEY." title="" /> +<span class="caption">THE DONKEY.</span> +</div> + +<p>The cow is a good mother, very fond of her calf. The bull is a very +bold, fierce animal. It has a great dislike to the colour red, and will +run after and if it can toss any one wearing it. In Spain they have a +cruel sport, called bull fights, between these brave animals and men on +horseback.</p> + +<p>The flesh of the cow and ox is called beef; that of the calf is veal.</p> + + +<h3><i>THE DONKEY.</i></h3> + +<p>This patient and useful animal is supposed to have come at first from +the East, where it still continues to be of a greater size and of a much +better appearance. They were as valuable there in former ages as horses; +great men and judges rode on asses. The ass is very fond of its foal, +and can be attached to its master if kindly treated. Its milk is thought +very good for consumptive people. It is very sure-footed, and strong, +and able to carry heavy burdens.</p> + +<p>The Donkey is a very useful animal to the poor. It can do a great deal +of work on very coarse and cheap food. Thistles make a dainty dinner for +the ass. It is patient and gentle, but occasionally very obstinate; a +fault chiefly produced in the poor beast by ill-usuage.</p> + +<p>Children should never be cruel to this poor animal, but treat it kindly, +and it will not then be stubborn and slow, but will do its best to carry +them.</p> + + +<h3><i>THE COCK, THE HEN, AND THE CHICKENS.</i></h3> + +<p>Here is a fine farm-yard family! very useful friends of ours. The cock, +who is a brave, spirited bird, wakes us up in the morning by crowing; +the hen lays us eggs for breakfast, and when the wee chicks are big +enough, they are very good food, as roast chicken. The cock teaches us +watchfulness; the hen, motherly love.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 435px;"> +<img src="images/i-160.jpg" width="435" height="650" alt="THE COCK, THE HEN, AND THE CHICKENS." title="" /> +<span class="caption">THE COCK, THE HEN, AND THE CHICKENS.</span> +</div> + +<p>There are many different kinds of fowls. The largest are the tall Cochin +Chinas; the smallest the pert little Bantams. It is a great amusement +for children to have a few fowls to feed, and take care of. Feeding them +and finding their eggs is one of the country child's pleasures.</p> + +<p>The hen sits on her eggs for three weeks; and when the chicks are +hatched, she takes the greatest care of them, gathering them under her +wings when danger is near or the weather is at all cold; and she is +ready to fight a hawk or even a dog in defence of her little ones.</p> + +<p>Fowls feed on barley or any kind of grain, and pick up worms, &c., in +their run. Stinging-nettles are very good food for chickens.</p> + + +<h3><i>THE HORSE.</i></h3> + +<p>This noblest of animals is believed to be a native of Arabia; but was in +our islands before the Romans came here. The first money coined in +Britain was stamped with the figure of a horse.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 433px;"> +<img src="images/i-161.jpg" width="433" height="650" alt="THE HORSE." title="" /> +<span class="caption">THE HORSE.</span> +</div> + +<p>The horse has a wonderful memory. He never forgets a place to which he +has once been taken. He loves his master if well treated; and in battles +he displays the greatest courage and joy. He also understands sounds, +and loves music. Indeed, the horse may be called the friend of man, and +deserves all the kindness we can show him.</p> + +<p>The Arabs bring up their horses with their children in their own tents; +and the steed thus reared is very sensible and gentle. An Arab will not +sell his favourite horse for any sum, however large: it is as dear to +him as his children.</p> + + +<h3><i>THE GOAT.</i></h3> + +<p>The goat is a very useful animal. Its flesh is very good, though English +people seldom eat it. Its milk is very good also, and of use to people +in consumption. The most beautiful gloves are made from its skin.</p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 436px;"> +<img src="images/i-164.jpg" width="436" height="650" alt="GOATS." title="" /> +<span class="caption">GOATS.</span> +</div> + +<p>Goats abound on the Welsh mountains; it is, indeed, an animal that loves +the great hills. The Welsh goats are white; they are very active, and +walk on the brink of precipices, and take the most wonderful leaps. The +scent of a goat is unpleasant, but it is thought to prevent infection +amongst cattle.</p> + +<p>Horses are very fond of goats. They are more common in France than with +us. In that country one sees a goat with nearly every flock of sheep.</p> + +<p>Goats' flesh is called “kid.” Do you remember how Jacob deceived his +father with the skin and meat of a kid of the

Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm + +Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of +electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers +including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit +501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the +state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal +Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at +http://pglaf.org/fundraising. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent +permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws. + +The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S. +Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered +throughout numerous locations. Its business office is located at +809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email +business@pglaf.org.

Newby + Chief Executive and Director + gbnewby@pglaf.org + + +Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + http://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> diff --git a/24778-h/images/i-003.jpg b/24778-h/images/i-003.jpg Binary files differnew file mode 100644
