THE STOLEN BRIDE"

1--WE will give them three kinds Of
scare all at once" continued Billy
Belgium. 1--WE will make a horrible
noise. we will shake the tree and we
will blow smoke into it and make them
think it is on fire"
How will you do all that?" asked
Peggy, to whom his idea seemed fine
if it would only work.
well, for the horrible noise Balky
Sam can bray, Billy Goat can bleat,
Johnny Bull can growl and you can
howl like a ghost"
Gracious, I've never heard ghost
how'll" exclaimed Peggy.
"Oh, just make the spookiest sounds
you can think of-sounds that would
scare you If you were out here in this
lonesome hollow tree in the middle of
the night"
oh" answered Peggy, to whom the
possibilities of her role began to ap,
peal. She felt sure that she could
make noises that would scare Blue Jay
into fits.
while you are making the noises
Balky Sam can kick the tree and
Billy Goat can butt it. The Jays will
think an earthquake has struck them
But about the smoker" asked
Peggy.
I've got matches and will build a
little fire beside the tree. During the
noise Reddy Woodpecker and all the
other Woodpeckers can cut hole ir
the bottom of the tree. I'll shove the
fire up to the hole and blow the
smoke in"
But that will smother Miss Purple

any harm-just scare EN-" replied Bill

eral Swallow. VINO was dancing up and
down, he was so nervous.
You get ready to rush in and res.
cue the lovely Bride"
Billy Belgium quickly gathered dry
leaves and twigs for his fire. He
marked place on the tree where Red
dy Woodpecker and the other Wood
peckers were to make the hole. He
showed Peggy. Balky Sam, Billy Goat
and Johnny Bull just where they were
to stand. Then he crept back into the
forest and cut branches with which to
hide them should the Jays peek out of
the hole.
All this was done very Quietly.
Billy Belgium gave his directions in
whispers and every one moved so
silently that the chatter of the Jays
within the hollow tree could be heard
all the time.
This chapter developed into a row
over the fate of the captive. Blue
Jay insisted that he was going to
marry her. The other Jays wanted to
hold her for ransom, the price of her
freedom being promise from the
Swallows that the Jays would be per.
mitted to raid Farmer Dalton's orchard
and garden whenever they wished.
Right in the midst of this row Billy
Belgium gave a piercing whistle, the
signal that all was ready. Balky Sans
heels landed against the tree with a
crash. Billy Goat followed instantly
with terrific bump. Peggy howleo
like a banshee her Irish nurse haG
told her about and Johnny Bull
growled in a terrorizing way. Billy
Goat "ba.a-a-ed" as he butted again
and again, while Balky Sam empha
sized every kick with roaring "hee
haw."
The Woodpeckers hammered away
for dear life and in jigtime had dug 6
hole through the wall of the tree.
The Jays shrieked their alarm at the
first attack. They rushed to the hole
but did not dare venture forth.
| Billy Belgium gave another piercing
whistle and the noise, the kicking
and the butting were redoubled. Billy
Belgium pushed the fire up to the
opening made by the Woodpeckers anC
blew the smoke inside. The Jays
scared by the horrible noises, shaker
by the attacks on the tree and choket
by the smoke, were in a mad panic
