pains。　At　present　you　have　only　the　practice　of　friendship；　some　day　you

will　have　the　theory　also。'

〃'Do　you　really　think　I　shall？'　asked　little　Hans。

〃'I　have　no　doubt　of　it；'　answered　the　Miller；　'but　now　that　you　have

mended　the　roof；　you　had　better　go　home　and　rest；　for　I　want　you　to　drive

my　sheep　to　the　mountain　to…morrow。'

〃Poor　little　Hans　was　afraid　to　say　anything　to　this；　and　early　the　next

morning　the　Miller　brought　his　sheep　round　to　the　cottage；　and　Hans
