A True Pigeon Story.

A gentleman had two pairs OF
pigeons living in dovecotes placed side
by side. In each pigeon family there
was a father anu a mother bird and
two little ones On certain day the
parents in one dovecote went away to
get food; and, while they were gone,
one of their little birds fell out Of the
dovecote and down to the ground. The
poor baby bird was not much hurt,
strange to say; but it could not get
back, for it was too young to fly.
Now the parents in the other dove
cote were at home when this happened,
and it seemed as if they said to them
selves: "One OF our babies might fall
out in just that way. We must do
| something to make the dovecote
safer" And then this wise. careful
father and mother went to work. They
flew about until they found some small
sticks. These they carried to their own
dovecote, and there in the doorway
/ they built a cunning little fence of
sticks. Not so high but that the little
pigeons could look over it, but high
enough to keep them from ever falling
out of the dovecote, as their little
neighbor had done. The owner of the
pigeons. who had seen the birding fall,
and had put it uack into its dovecote,
watched the birds the whole time as
they gathered the sticks and built the
fence acros the doorway. This is a
true story, and it is often told to some
children in Boston by lady who
knows the owner of these very
! pigeons. Presbyterian.

The Little Great Man.

During the American revolution the
captain of little band of soldiers was
giving orders to those under him about
heavy beam that they were endeav-
oring to raise to the top of some MILL
tary works which they were repairing.
The weight was almost beyond their
power to raise, and the voice of the
superintendent was often heard:
"Heave away! There it goes! HeaVe
ho."
An officer, not in military costume,
was passing, and asked of the super
intendent why he did not give help
ing hand. The latter, astonished,
turned around with all the pomp OF an
emperor, and said: "Sir, l am cor
poral!"
81 ask your pardon. Mr. Corporal.
the man replied, and taking off his hat.
he bowed. saying, Il was not aware OF
the fact"
Upon this he dismounted and pulled
till the perspiratlon stood in drops on
his forehead, and when the beam was
raised, turning to the little great man,
he said: Mr.. Corporal, when you hsve
another sucn job, anu have not men
enough, send for your commander-in-
chief, and l shall gladly come and help
you a second time"
The corporal was thunderstruck. 1t
was Washington. This goes to illus
trate that a man. though great, may
always find one who is greater.
