DOGS THAT BECAME FRIENDS
There was a king who possessed two hounds, and these were kept chained up at some distance from one another. But directly they were let loose they flew at each other and began to fight fiercely. The king consulted one «»f his wise men as t.» what could bi done to make the dogs live together as friends. “Take them into the forest.” said the wise man, “and when you see a fierce wolf, let one of the dogs loose The wild animal will attack it. But just as it is being overcome, let loose the other dog. which will fly at the wolf, and the two dogs together will be more than a match for the wild animal.” The king did this. A wolf appeared, and one dog let loose. When its strength had nearly failed, the other was let loose, anti very soon the fierce w’olf was slain. The first dos was so grateful to its companion for saving its life that ever afterward the two animals were firm and faithful friends.
