"a little bird lit on the pilot of my
engine one day as we were passing
through Kokomo, Ind. Some crumbs
of bread or something that had been
left on the small platform by some
body attracted it's attention. It
picked and picked at the crumbs till
we had travelled 20 miles further to
Peru, Ind. There it finished it's meal
and few away. I didn't think any
more about the circumstances till
next day, when on my return through
Peru / again noticed this small
brown bird. It fluttered about the
pilot for moment and seemed to
miss something. Realizing at once
that this was the same little bird
which had travelled with me on the
previous day. at once unpacked my
lunch box and threw some crumbs
out on one of the running boards.
"The bird caught. on at once He
was an awfully cute little fellow and
began to pick at the dinner I had
thrown out to him. He rode back

Strange to say, he found Miss Het-
ty alone there in the warm, rosy
little room, with its queer old china,
glistening silver, odd pictures and rich
russet-bound books. The tiny little
hostess saw the determination in her
callers face, and sank into her deep
chair, knitting her thin, beautifully
kept fingers together in desperate
hope and fear.
The Major refused the proffered tea
almost gruffly, thrust his hands in
his pockets, tried another chair, and
finally strobe across to the tiny bow
window, and, with his back bravely
turned toward her, he began:
"My dear--friend, I-er-I want to
