96.--THE BEE AND THE ÁSYA.

Bee and Ásya are both women and have children. They are great friends. Ásya has peach orchard and relishes peaches very much. She visits Bee, who feeds her honey. They converse all day and Ásya asks Bee to visit her in morning. Bee has no wings and walks to friend's house. Ásya gives her seat and feeds her peaches. She asks Bee if she likes peaches. Bee suggests she shall make some medicine for peaches, as they are sour. Ásya consents and Bee puts honey on them, making them sweet. Ásya is happy and pulls out some feathers for Wings, which she attaches to Bee. She teaches Bee how to fly and ever since bees can fly.
