IN the city, and when he came home
he gave the girls such vivid account
or the decorated eggs and the papier
lnache rabbits and all the other Easter
faVors that can be seen in the shops
that they were wild to have him deco
rate some eggs for them when next
Easter should come.
Mr.. McKenzic owned a score Of hens
Of various breeds, and Austin, who
could draw and paint. asked him
whether he could have all the eggs
that were laid the week before Easter,
so that he might decorate them. and
Mr.. Mckenzie readily consented, as he
was proud Of his boys talent.
Austin counted on about a hundred
eggs, but, to his dismay, the hens
stopped laying just one week before
Easter. Now, April is the greatest
month Of the year for eggs, and this
action on the part of the hens was
quite unaccountable. and in the minds
of Marian and Sarah quite unpardon-
able.
Austin asked whether they could not
buy some eggs, but Mr.. Austin was
opposed TO this, and besides, all of
their neighbors had their regular Gus
TONERS for their eggs, who took all
that were laid.
Austin was greatly disappointed. He
had a good deal of talent at drawing
and painting, and he had anticipated
making pretty and quaint designs on
the eggs. A hen that can lay and won't
Jay should be made to lay, but ii takes
several days to do it, and it was Good
Friday before Austin gave up all hope
Of their beginning. and then it was
quite too late to do anything in the
forcing line.
He went out to the hen house to feed
them early Saturday morning, and said
10 them-he had a way of talking TO
dumb beasts, as if they could under
stand: 81 DON'T see why you should
stop laying eggs juyt at this time, when
we want them more than ever"
As he spoke he heard a rustling in
the straw and saw two pink eyes look
ing at him. Then two long ears were
cooked at him, and a rabbit hoped
boldly out and laughed at him. Yes.
actually laughed at him. The hens did
not seem to fear this unusual occur
renee intruder in the least. In fact.
the OLD est Of ali went over to him, and
turning her head to one side said some
thing in hen language. And the rab-
bit answered in Welch, which is the
language Of most rabbits in this coun-
try.
Austin thought that there was more
in this than met his eye or his ear,
and he went out of the hen house and
waited outside for a half hour, for he
had the patience Of an Indian. At the
end of that time he heard a hen cack-
ling, and knew that she had laid an
egg.
'Ah, ha, they've begun at last" said
he. and as he said it out comes Mr..
Colonial with an egg in his mouth,
and hops off across the meadow to the
strip of woods that bounded it on the
west.
That's where they're going, is it?
The hens are supplying the rabbits
with eggs, although papa, and not the
rabbits, is feeding them" He was about

is the word, and as soon as they were
come to him he said: I've found out
why we haven't any eggs. The rab-
shh! Here comes some more"
He pointed as he spoke, and his sis
tiers saw four rabbits hopping in In
dian file from the woods to the her.
house. They did not seem to see the
children, or maybe they knew that they
had no violence to fear at their hands,
for they disappeared in the henhouse.
Then enSued another wait, during
which time Austin told the girls what
had happened.
Now came a chorus of cackling, in
which they could distinguish four parts
with a solo every now and then. The
four parts were taken by a Silver Wy
anTotte, Buff Cochin, a White Leg
horn and a Black Spanish, and the
solo was sung by a Light Brahma
rooster. And right we'll and Justify he
sang it.
AREN'T you going to get them?''
asked Marian.
mot this time. Wait" said Austin,
and as he was several years Older than
his sisters, they waited. A moment
later out hoped the four rabbits with
four eggs Of different sizes and colors,
but all equally good for Haster deco

What do you suppose they'll do

"Oh, no." said Austin, with a little
tincture Of big brotherism. They'll
paint pictures on them
The girls giggled at this and Sarah
said: But, Austin, I suppose they've
been taking them ever since the eggs
fell off,"
Fell off what?" asked Tustin, teas
ingly.
''Oh, you know what mean. I think
that you ought to stop them from get

and they all have roots in their
mouths"
''They are certainly buying those
eggs" said Austin. I'm not going to
stop them. Say, I have some money
in my bank and I'll go down town and
buy some case eggs this evening.
They'll do just as well to decorate.
And I won't disturb the rabbits at all.
Although guess this crowd will be
fooled. They won't get any eight eggs
this morning.
isn't it a coincidence" said Marian,
that rabbits should be getting eggs
just at Easter time?'
Before anyone could answer there
arose a most cheerful din inside, the
din that announces the laying of eggs.
Il guess they are laying twice." said

said Marian. 1t was not very long

said Austin L know mamma viii let
me go down, now that it has stopped
raining"
And in a few minutes he was of on
old Caesar and the girls flew to their
mother to see if she coud help them
make some dyes for coloring some of
the eggs.
But, although Mrs Mckenzie was
generally mine of suggestions TO her
children when they were in a ouandary,
she had never done any dyeing and
dld not know how to so to work to
get single color except by using
blueing, and the girls did not think
that would make Is very pretty shade

They set the table for their mother,
and then they put on their rubbers and
went out TO get some early wild flow
ers, and while they were in the Held
they saw Austin returning -eggless.
It's no use" he called 10 them. The
fates are against US. They were all out
OF eggs at both stores. Expected some
more this evening, but l couldn't wait.
Well have to get along without"
1 am inclined TO think that there was
tear in Sarah's eye and another one
was already TO roll out of Marian's
eye, but Marian threw her head up and
Sarah threw her head up, the tears
ing early wild flowers like sensible chill
cren.
While the family sat at breakfast

conceits that Austin'S brush had Great
ed on cardboard Mr.. Austin noticed
neighbor staring intently at their front
doorway.
do you suppose the house is afre,
Margaret?' said ne, calling TO Mrs.
Austin's attention to the man, whose
mouth and eyes were wide open.
All five jumped to their feet and ran
to the front door, which Mr.. Austin
opened.
There on the front steps and extend
ing down the path to the gate sat 100
rabbits, and each rabbit held an egg
in his paws as a squirrel holds q nat.
But such eggs.
The butterflies had, indeed, been to
the rainbow and had borrowed colors
from it, but how in the world they
ever decorated those eggs with the
dazzling hues I cannot tell. Such tran
scendently beautiful eggs you, nor I,
ever saw at Easter, or at any other
time
Austin was the first to command his
tongue.
Are these for us?" said he to Mr..
Cottontail, who was spokesman.
The rabbit bowed his head Solemnly
and the ninety mine ot-ar rabbits bow
ed their heads. too. and then each one
in turn went up and handed an egg to
one or another of the children.
Quick, get the clothes baskets" said
Mrs Mckenzie to her husband, and in
truth they needed it, for 100 eggs take
a good deal of room.

When the last rabbit had handed in
his egg they formed long line and
bowed respectfully to the McKerZieS.
Then each rabbit put a little paw on
his heart. and they faced about and
hoped off around the house and away
TO the woods, followed by admiring and
amused CALCULATIONS from the McKen-
zieS and the neighbors who had Joined
them. AS the rabbits passed the hen
house the rooster crowed, and all the
hens said one thing or another - in
their own language.
But those eggs! If you can imagine

But what appealed more than any
thing to tender-hearte Sarah was the
