it reached tlie top.
"Ab, at last 1 am seeing the work

"All my days l might have rested ot
the ground and never have seen :

One morning a big blossom grev
on the vine, showing plainly front tin
road, and then the vine began to fee
very proud, for as they passed many
people turned to look at it growing ab
along on the stone wall.
“How foolish my brothers are it
live all their days on the ground.’
1 bought the vine. “Here l am seeing
the world and being admired and if !
stayed in the field no one would havt
noticed me.”
One day a pumpkin came in place
oi tiie blossom and tlie* vine grev,
prouder than ever. But as the pump¬
kin grew larger it reached the side oi
the stone wail and one day it grew too
heavy ami off iT tumbled and broke
from tin* vine. It was still green and
no one bothered to pick it up and now
tiie restless vine heaan to think of its
brothers growing In the field on the
ground, for it knew that soon the!)
golden fruit would be ready for tin
farmer to gather.
How it wished it had stayed at

place to grow.
By and by the nights grew cold and
tiie vine began to wither, and one
morning as it lay shriveled upon slu¬

pumpkins passed by am! the restless
vine knew when it was too late that
its brothers in the field were wise
while it had been a restless and fool
ish vine.
It had seen tiie world outside of the
field, hut it had nothing to show for
the time it had lived in the world
while its brothers had grown big ye!
low pumpkins of which any vine

“LIKELY" AND “LIABLE"
44TTK71LI. YV you disobey the law?"
“It is not likely that I shall
do so.” “Well, if you do, you will be
liable to arrest.”
Tiie foregoing sentences may be
used to illustrate the distinction that
is made by careful writers and speak¬
ers between the words "likely” and
“liable.” The former wdrd is used
properly of an event that is regarded
as very probable, and usually, hut not
always favorable. “Liable” is not
used properly in tiie sense of '‘likely"
except to Indicate an undesirable or
Injurious event which may befall a
person or thing.
An eminent lecturer was asked, at
the conclusion of an address on “The
Moral Tendencies of the Times,”
whether he did not consider it prob¬
able that all men, being trained prop¬
erly in vouth, would pursue the paths
of honesty. He replied, “Yes. it is
likely that they will do so, but all
men are liable to err.”
