HOW THE GROCER PLAYED A TRICK ON KIT
Kit was the grocer’s horse. One day as the grocer came up to her she whinnied and rubbed her nose against his pocket.
“Ha, ha, ha, I’ve caught you this time; it isn’t in my pocket,” said the grocer; “here it is.” He held out to her a ripe red apple he had been hiding behind his back.
Kit didn’t wait to laugh at the joke; she ate the apple in one big bite.
