  1. A Religious Story.
    Once there lived a king and queen who lived together in a large palace. The queen was a pious kind-hearted generous woman and she always assisted the poor.
    One day a man came to the door and he told her he had leprosy. The queen took him in and placed him in a secret room. The king noticed her going frequently to the room and he followed her this day. To his amazement he found the Infant Jesus lying on the bed.
