There was an Eagle which had . nest
IN which there were many eggs and The eggs
were OF Q number no man has counted
and some Of the egga were white and some
were white. and some were pasty-colorsd
and some were smaller. and al were large.
And from the eggs the old Eagle with grass-
tal hoax. perceived the young Eagles com
ing. And at frst she found thirteen in her
nest and she Auttersd with joy and pride
and looked at her God. the sun, and lifted
her wings over them with . mothers conf.
dence and tbs young Eagles were happy
In the ness--and ,hs mornings were pre-.
ious and the evenings wsrs golden. Then
slowly camc forth the eagles, one By one, two
by two. as day BY day passed and the nest
contained them oil, and the mother EAGLES
wings oversprssd them. Bot after MANY
days. the young Eagiss. finding chat they
had beaks, began to peck ct each other, and
quarrel in the nest. And the mother Eagle
was panied beyond Expression, and she
whispered. "my children, this is not we'll
tor you be noble. sor you are Eagles. and
see you the hawk and the buzzari. and even
the mocking-bird will be looking At Won.
But as the nest grew fuller. and the moth

the young eagles grew more quarrelsome
more noisy. and q few of them In one cor
ner. whore the party -colored eggs had been
lying. threatened to leave the nest.
And then the old mother Eagle lovingly
drew her wings closer.
And still the young Eagles quarreled and
the hawks and buzzards and mockine birds
looked as them, and the crows. in their
parliamentary ea,e-fanss. made remarks
concerning them.
And the m mother.cagls was sad, and the
pride OF her sun-cvc was down cast.
And 10. the Eagles which threatened to
leave the nest. being most noisy and most
quarelsoms. futtsred. over the brink of the
nest. and-was it . miracle they were
born without wings And the mother Eagle
said My dear children. since you cannot
fly. live contentedly here in the nest, and I
will guard you. For look you. if you fall
how far below are the rocks on which you
must fall"
And still tho eggs brought forth the Ea-
giles, and the mother Eagle held in her beak
