How Unhappy Kingr learned a
l.vMfton From Peasant lad
IN the very, very long
ago there dwelt in a
country across the sea
a king who was very,
very unhappy. He of
ten felt so tired of life
as he lived it that he
sometimes wished to
die. And he would sit
on his throne and sigh deeply. And his
courtiers would vie with one another in
trying to make their monarch's existence
less unbearable. But they fawned upon
him and flattered him, and bowed down
before him in the humblest manner. And
all the time the king hated them for
their humbleness and servility. But
being a king, he held himself aloof from
his fellow-beings, and retained a haugh
ty reserve.
One day while driving in his coach of
gold and silver, the king beheld a little
peasant boy on the banks of a river, fish-
would be made to suffer, the penalty.
But to their great surprise, the king
smiled for the first time in months
and again spoke to the peasant boy :
"If I pay you a golden coin for the
fish you haven't yet caught, will you
come and speak with me? I, your king,
beg this favor." And again the king
smiled in an amused way.
"Oh, if you are willing to pay me for
my lost time why 1 will come and speak
with you, sir," agreed the peasant boy.
And he arose and approached the king's
coach. The outriders opened an avenue
so that he might walk to the side of
the coach. To their utter astonishment
the king made room for the boy inside
of the coach and bade him be seated be
side him. The boy looked up and shook
his head: "No, sir, a peasant boy is
not fitting company for a king. I pre
fer to remain afoot on ground and talk
with you."
"You are a strange and bold boy,"
declared the king, a bit out of temper.

AN EASY WAY TO DRAW A
ing. The child looked up at him, smil
ingly. Then, without removing his cap
and failing to bow respectfully before
his monarch, the boy returned to his
work, pulling out of the water a fine
fish. Theking was so deeply impressed
by the boy's happy face that he called to
his coachman to stop, as he would speak
with the peasant boy.
As the coach stopped, the king called
to the lad : "Come hither, youth."
But the lad sat quite still beside the
bank, holding to his fishing rod. "Come
hither, I command you !" So spoke the
king in imperious tones, beckoning to
the peasant boy .
"But I must not leave my rod, sir,"
explained the boy. "I have a fish nib
bling at the bait, and I must watch the
line."
"Do you know who I am?" questioned
the king in a severe tone.
"Yes, sir. You are the man the peo
ple call king. I would not know you
but for your coach and retinue." The
boy spoke in the easiest manner possible,
without the least show of embarrass
ment. The coachman and outriders
trembled for the child's fate, for they
feared he had offended his king and

"And why do you dare to refuse me
your king?"
"If you are my king, then I am your
subiect," said the boy. "And we each
owe the other certain liberty. I must
live my way and you your way.".
Now it was the king's turn to be as
tonished and banishing the frown which
had begun to gather on his brow, he said.:
"You interest me, youth, and I shall get
out of my coach and sit beside you while
you fish. Will that please you my sub
ject? "I have no objection to your sitting on
the banks of the river, for it is yours as
well as mine," explained the boy.
The king laughed outright. "Why,
youth, don't you know that river and
all the land about it belongs to me, the
king and ruler over this land?"
The boy shook his head : "That river
is not yours any more than it is mine
even though you be a king. You cannot
bridle it or change its course. You can
not stop its waters, or cause them to
flow. It is God's river, and so is the
land all about it. And you the God's
creature as I am God's creature, and
whexi he bids us leave this life you are
as powerless to disobey as I am. So, I
