THE UNHAPPY· ONES
J
AMEs.-What is this picture'?
MOTHER.-It shows you how he who drinks ardent spirits
treats his family when at home.
LUCY.-What is he doing there, mother'?
MOTHER.-He is driving his wife out of the house, in the cold,
dark night. See how cruelly he beats her. Hear the wind
whistle. See how the snow flies. See the poor children, wring–
ing their hands and crying out "Oh, father, do not drive
mother away! do not drive mother away!" And then he turns
around and curses them.
BOTH CHILDREN.-Oh! What a monster!
