way To the easement. with the aid of
two ropes which spanned his room,
they came to him, lighting on his
wrists and hands and clamoring for
the seeds and crumbs which he was
wont to feed them. Indeed, little Bob
Moran soon learned the pretty lingo
Of every feathered tribe that camped
in the garden. He could sound the
pan pipe of the robin. the fairy flute
of the oriole, the noisy guitar of the
bobolink jhd the little piccolo of the
song sparrow. Many of these dear
friends of his came into the room and
explored the rubber tree and sang in
its branches. A colony of barn swnl-
lows lived under the caves of the old
weathered shed on the far side OF the
garden. There were many windows,
each with a saucy head looking out
Of II. Suddenly half a dozen of these
merry people would rush into the air
and fill it with their frolic. They were
like q lot of laughing schoolboys skat-
ing over invisible hills and hollows.

Moran had learned the nest habits of
the whole summer colony I'm that won

open window with his work, an air
gun at his side. The robins would
shout warning to Bob when cat
strolled into that little paradise. Then
he would drop his brushes, seize his
gun and presently It's missile would
go whizzing through the air, straight
against the side of the cat, who, feel
ing the sting of II, would bound
through the flower beds and leap over
the fence to avoid further punish
ment. Bob had also made an electric
searchlight out OF his fathers old
hunting jack and, when those red
breasted policemen sounded their
alarm at night he was out of bed in a
jlffy and sweeping the tree tops with
broom of light, the jack on his
forehead. If he discovered a pair of
eyes. the singing missiles flew toward
them In the light stream until the In
truder was dislodged. Indeed, he was
like a shepherd OF old, keeping the
wolves from his flcck. II was the
parish priest who first called him the
Shepherd of the Birds.

stub of an old pine partly covered
with Virginia creeper. Near the top

DENIED PLEASURES OF TABLI
Great Jockey Had to Sacrifice Much to
Maintain His Position as King
Of Riders.

Fred Archer, the famous English
jockey, had to employ heroic meas
urcs to keep his weight down.,
The story is told of how, on one oc-
cnsion, he was the guest OF a very hos
pitable host.
From the kitchen came the perfume
of savory meats, and at dinner a
sturdy. rosy-cheeked man-servant made
his appearance, his back bending I'M

Poor Areher's face, as he surveyed
the initial preparations for the evening
meal, was quite piteous TO watch
Then, with shrug of the shoulders
and a sigh, but ill-coneealed by cyni-
cal remark, he left the table, and
shortly afterward his host saw him
pass the window on hack, gallOping
toward the training grounds.
Later on he partook OF tiny glass
of champagne and biscuit, playing
one game of billiards, and retired to
bed.
