OF a sudden he stopped on North
Main street in front of the Adams
Co. store and seemed unable to go
any further. Apparently he was sick,
very sick indeed, for he stopped IN his
tracks and crumpled up in heap. A
sympathetic bystander picked him up.
He was soaked with water, for youth
standing near had inadvertently
turned the hose on him as he was try
ing to wash the store windows. The
sympathetic bystander shook him a
bit to take of the water, and laid him,
unresisting. on pile of boxes that
| lined the walk. There he lay for some
| few minutes in wet and sickly misery
looking humbly at the crowd who
| passed and who gave not one glance
| in his direction. Then, evidently salts
fed that his feathers we're dry enough
he wabbled away in naughty silence
and took his place by the side of has
brothers in the street For you see
he was only an English sparrow.
