HOW ELSIE SAVED A MOCKING
BIRD.
By Mary Newbury.

1t was a day in June. 1t was a
warm day with cloudless skies. On
a porch of medium sized house sat
Elsie. A large umbrella tree shaded
the porch. Elsie sat listening to hear
the hooking birds sing.
She had few thoughts. Nothing
had attracted much of her attention.
Suddenly she heard a frightened
squeak. She looked up, and what do
you think she saw? Two hooking
birds were fighting each other. One
of the hooking birds flew away; the
other flew to the top of the umbrella
tree. But alas, he was so tired that
his claws failed to keep him on his
perch. Down he came.
Now it happened that Elsie's big
cat had watched these birds. She
thought she would have good chance
to catch this one now. But knocking
birds are smart so instead of lying or
the ground it flew few feet in the
air. Just as the bird was about to
fall again Elsie made her appearance
The cat was about to seize it when
Elsie caught it up quickly. While
holding the bird in one hand she went
up to her cat and hit it with the other
"You bad cat! she said angrilly
ego away" The cat ran away as soor
as she was hit. Elsie held the birC
closely to her. "You dear little thing,
she said, 81 am going to take you ir
the house and let you rest yourself

something touched her on her fore
head but she took it to be the window
curtain flaring against her, but in a
minute something whistled past her
like the rustling of skirts. Then she
looked up expecting to find Mama
coming after her, but there stood a
lovely princess-the one she was
reading about. Just then the princess
spoke: Look what l have in my
arms" ooh, let me have him. cried
Emily, as she jumped up to take Baby
Brother in her arms. "Mama called
me a while ago but l was reading

Brother. Emily jumped out of the
window and ran. after the princess.
".My baby boy" said the princess.
"He's not your baby brother, he's
mine," said Emily and on they ran.
After awhile the princess began to
sing:
ooh this pretty baby of mine.
Coo! Coo! He says.
His pink little toes are
Like the buds of rose, and
So is his nose.
Oh, this baby of mine."
"He's not your baby, he's mine"
cried Emily. They ran on. After
a while Emily got so tired she fell
down and could not get up. She looked
through her tears at her little baby
brother. Just then she heard Mama
say: "Come now, Emily, supper is
ready. Here is Baby Brother, and
Papa is home for supper" Emily got
up and went and got Baby Brother
and kissed him and said: 81 will not
forget to take you any more. Baby
laughed and said: 600, Coo"
