THE GOOD BARGAIN.
BY WILLIAM A. KENYON.
Once (before Christian charities, tempe
rance societies, and popular governments
were common) a countryman drove his
cow to mailcet, and sold her for seven dol
lars. On his way home ho was obliged
to piss a pond hole, in iv hich while yet a
good distance off, he heard the frogs cry

When he came to the water, he called

But the frogs persisted in the , Alce,ake,

money out of his pocket and counted oil
the seven dollars., five and tweuiy•four
pennies to every one.
But the frogs cared nothing. for his rec
koning, and continued to cry, 'Ake, ake,
alto, ake !'
'Nell,' exclaimed the countryman, fair
ly vexed, 'if you think you know better
than I, just count them yourselves, and he
threw the money into the water. He was
standing there, expecting to wait till they
Were ready to bring him book his own ;
but the frogs persevered in their intent,
oohing out 'Ake, nice, abe, ake !' without
interruption, anal did not throw the money
back. He continued to wait for a good
while, till night catne nn, and he was obli
ged to go home. - Then he turned to abu
sing the frogs, and called out to them :
'You water peddlers ! you numskulls !
you wooden heads ! you have got a great
mouth, and can scream till you split one's
ears ; but you emu% count seven dollars

crying, 'Ake, uke, alce,alce.!' behind him,
until he reached his home, in a very fret.

After a while he had another cow, which
he slaughtered, and reckoned that,. if he
&old the meet we.l, he should make us
much as both cows were worth, and have
the hide re:nail:log.
Now when he went to the village with
the meat, a great many dogs collected a
bout the gate. with a large greyhound at
their head. This tatty r sprang up towards
the meat and harked, Wow, wow, wow.'
Before he had fairly ceased, the country-
man said to hint :
•Yes, I understand, you soy, .wutv, wow
because you warn a piece of the meat ; but
I should look well if I were to give it to
you.'
The dog answered nothing but '\Vow,

•11'ow, wow,' said the dog.
'Well, if you adhere to that, I will let
you hove it ; I know you, and know whose
servant you are. But I will tell . you this

day—you can just bring it to
With that he delivered the meat, and
turned about again. The dogs received
it, and barked loudly. The countryman,
still hearing them, he had gone a consider
able distance, said to himself, 'Listen !
they are all crying wow, wow, but the big
one must answer to me.'
AV hen the third day came, the country
man thought, .This evening you will have
the money in your pocket, 'et no one
came to settle with him.
There is no nitre depending upon any
body,' said he ; and finally he loot all pa:
hence, so that he went t , the butcher in
the village, and demanded his money.—
The butcher thnnght it was a joke, at first,
but the countryman said :
'Jesting aside, I will have my pay. Did
not your great dog bring home the whole
carcass of a slaughtered cow, three days
ago ?'
At that the butcher flew into a passion,
seized a broomstick, and chased him
away.
tt nit,* said the countryman ; 'there is
justice in the vorld yet.' and ho went to
the royal palace and requested a hearing.
He was conducted before the king, who
sat there with his daughter, and asked
what misfortune had befallen hiw.
'o,' said ho, 'the frogs and dogs have
taken my property away, and the butcher
has paid me for it with blows.' And then
be related circumstantially how it had
happened.
Upon this, the king's daughter burst in.

At this the king was angry, and said :

When the countryman came out before I

you will get something right.'
'Yes, I believe that,' answered the coun•

'Weil,' said the countryman 'since it is

A Hebrew who hud been standing near
and overheard this conversvion called the
countryman, and held him by the voat
saying :
'God wonder, but you are a lucky child!
I will exchange it for you. I will t urn it
into small coin for you What would you

"Jew," said the countryman, "you can
still have three hundred ; give me the a

it will be paid to you by the king."

of n little gain, soon brought the amount

Meanwhile, the Hebrew and the sal
dire came in to desire their own, which
they had won from the countryman, and
they received the lashes, well meisured
out to them. The soldier endured it very
patiently, having already learned how it
relished ; but the Hebrew screamed out
piteously, in his misery, "Are these the
dollars 1"
The king was pleased to laugh at the
countryman, and when all anger was
passed, he said ;
"Sine,: you have lost your recompense
before you received it, I will make you
amends. Go Imo my treasury and take
as much gold as you choose."
' The countryman did not let it pass by
the second time but stuffed into his wide
pockets till they would contain. After

countryman his punishment, said :
"I will lend you a beautiful coat for the
