                            The Two Dogs^15


A man had two dogs: a Hound,  trained to assist him in his sports,  and
a Housedog, taught to watch the  house.  When he returned home  after a
good day's  sport, he  always gave  the Housedog  a large  share of his
spoil.   The  Hound,  feeling  much  aggrieved  at this, reproached his
companion, saying, "It is very hard to have all this labor, while  you,
who  do  not  assist  in  the  chase,  luxuriate  on  the  fruits of my
exertions."   The Housedog  replied, "Do  not blame  me, my friend, but
find fault  with the  master, who  has not  taught me  to labor, but to
depend for subsistence on the labor of others."

Children are not to be blamed for the faults of their parents.
