Taking Tales Instructive And Entertaining Reading (Fiscle Part-X)
Von: W.H.G. Kingston
There Are All Sorts Of Mills: Some Go By Water, Undershot Or Overshot;
But If The Millpond Is Dry, Or The Stream Runs Low, They Come To A
Standstill. They Want Help, They Must Have Water, To Go On. Next There
Are Steam-Mills, Which Make A Great Noise And Do A Great Deal Of Work;
But They Want Coals And Water Too: If Both Are Not Brought To Them, They
Stop And Can Do Nothing. And Then There Are Wind-Mills; But Everybody
Knows That Wind-Mills, Though They Do Stand On The Tops Of Hills, In
Spite Of Their Great Long Arms Stuck Out, Are Of No Use If The Wind Does
Not Blow.
