Q.What is the use of the goat'? A.In some countries people drink the goat's milk; and the skin is useful to make the upper-leather of shoes.
Q.Are goats fond of going into the valleys and low places? A.No; they are fond of going up hills and high places.
Q.If a goat is coming down a hill which has only one narrow path merely wide enough for one goat to walk on without falling down, and another goat is coming up the same path, what do they do? A.The goat that is coming up lies down and lets the other goat walk over him.
Q.Why does not one of the goats turn round and go back again? A.Because there would not be room, and the one which should try to turn round would fall down and be killed. Q.What letter is this? A.Letter H, the first letter in horse, house, &c.
Q.What is the use of the horse? A.To draw carts, coaches, stages, waggons, fire-engines, &c.
