He mounted the horse and was soon up among the clouds, he was feeling very miserable when suddenly he discovered a peg. So he tammed It and down he flew till be reached the gates of a palace, so softly the Prince dismounted and crept in

Soon he came to a Princess lying on a sofa, softly he kissed her and then the Princess called for her slaves and told them to bring him food and told the Prince to stay that night. So the Prince stayed a few days longer and soon went home with the Princess of Bengal to his home. On their way they met the Indian and be told her that the King wanted to see him alone and told him to stay. with the Princess for a Ettle while.

But no sooner had the Prince gone than be few away with the Princess on the enchanted horse. When the Prince heard it he began searching for the Princess

There was once a shoemaker who worked very hard, and who was very honest. Yet he could not enough to live upon, and at last all he had in the world was gone all except just enough leather to make one pair of shoes.

"Oh dear, whatever is happening!" cried Black-as-Night, the Queen of the Ants and all her ladies in waiting were for a moment too frightened to 1,500 Feet above Sea Level, move. Then the Lord Bigh Steward, Sharp-Bite. (a biz strung ant who was always the leader) gave the order to Leave the camp imme- diately!" At once everyone began. to bustle about, all except one lazy ant called Drowsy, who was always half asleep,

"Ow, ow," cried Drowsy, "My (back is brokkën, 1 can't move.

**Then you must stay here alone," said Sharp-Bite. Because in four minates there will not be an ant left in the place."

When Drowsy heard this he got up and made off as fast as he could. You hardly ever see ants by then- selves. They always like to be together. Mengat

"Come back,” shouted Sharp-Bite, Don't be lazy. You gust carry something with you." And be tied a large egg on to Droway's back and Drowsy "weat off" muttering and groaning at having to stagger along with such a load...........

By this time nearly all the ants were outside. There are so many pas sages and doors to their houses and they can easily scramble out.

Black-as-Night, the Queen, had nothing to carry, but all the others were dragging along the food from the storehouse, pieces of worms and beatles and butterflies.gener

Just as they were safely outside they heard a voice saying, “Look Eric, what a lot of ants. Where can they be going to?”

..

And there two little boys on their hands and knees, were watching the long stream of ants.

Don't disturb us please!" called out several of the ants and Drowsy, who had sat down to rest for a minute, said "No, go away! We are much too busy to be bothered with you!"
