Once upon a time there was a woodcutter and his wife who had seven children, all boys. The eldest was but ten years old, and the youngest only seven. People wondered that the woodcutter had so many children so near in age, but the fact was, that several of them were twins. He and his wife were very poor, and their seven children were a great burden to them, as not one of them was yet able to earn his livelihood. What troubled them still more was, that the youngest was very delicate, and seldom spoke, which they considered a proof of stupidity rather than of good sense. He was very diminutive, and, when first born, scarcely bigger than one's thumb, and so they called him Little Thumbling. “Saved my life, I reckon, is all you did. It must have been some job, too, although I don’t know how you did it.” “How did you meet him?” asked Bob, expecting that Jerry had found his job in some exciting way. But he was disappointed..

Some time for a husband to wait He had a match and if there was enough wood there was a chance. The planking of the door was dry and there was no reason why it would not catch. Finally they agreed to take turns poking at the crab, but it would not budge. It lay as if it were nailed fast to the rocks. One morning, however, something new occurred to distract his attention. Happening to glance out of the window, he saw Jerry coming up the path to the office, running with all the speed of which he was capable..
