THE MOTHER GOAT’S RETURN.

Well, it was not long before the mother goat came back from the forest with the food for her children. When she came near the house, what a sight met her eyes! The door stood wide open. The table, the chairs and the benches were overturned. The dishes were broken. The quilts and pillows were on the floor. She was amazed. She looked around, but not one little goat could she see. She sought for them, but not one could she find. She called each by his name, but no one answered.
