Alas. Leah is lazy. One day, her father sees a traveling quack selling a wonderful powder guaranteed to put energy into a log of wood. He buys a package, and goes off confident that at last be has something to rouse his daughter. Unfortunately, however, Leah sees him make the purchase, and also buys a powder that has the contrary effect. Upon reaching home the clever girl manages to get possession of her father's purchase, and places the contents in the cups of her father and mother. The tea is poured and the innocent victims are soon rushing about in an extraordinary manner. At last Leah takes pity upon them and administers a dose of the other powder which causes them to sink down exhausted. It is sad to relate that Leah is still lazy, but her parents let her entirely alone.
