driving the about, and calling out, HIRRUP! HIRRUP! At first he could not think what he was doing; but presently he saw that their own cow had got in among the others, and Jonas was trying to get her out. Some of the men who were driving the herd helped him, and they succeeded, at length, in getting her away by herself, by the side of the road. The rest of the cattle moved slowly on, and when they were fairly by, Jonas called out to Rollo to open the gate and then run away. Rollo did, accordingly, open the gate and run up the yard, and presently
Rollo stopped crying pretty soon, and went into the house; and that evening, when his father came home, he went to him, and said, "Father, you were right, after all; I _don't_ know how to work any better than Elky."
"Never learned!" said Rollo, in great surprise. "Do horses have to _learn_ to work? Why, they have nothing to do but to pull." "Why, suppose," said his father, "that he should dart off at once as soon as he is harnessed, and pull with all his strength, and furiously."

had finished mending the wheelbarrow, and had put it in its place, and was just going away himself into the field. "Well, Rollo," said he, "how do you get along with your work?" "O, very well," said Rollo; "I have been picking up chips all the time since I went away from you." Rollo did not mean to tell a falsehood. But he was not aware how much of his time he had idled away.
