"Dick,"said the mother to her little boy, "take the pitcher out of the cupboard and get some beer. Here is the money, and don't lose it as yesterday." "I shall not lose it today, mother."Dick took the pitcher and went to the ale-house. "I want three penny worth of beer,"he said. The ale-house man filled the pitcher and asked him: "Where are your three pence?" "I put them into the pitcher not to lose them."answered Dick.
