Ninsoms Bluebird had made ID his mind. Mrs. Winsome had made up her mind. The two minds didn't agree. Winsome had decided that a certain little house. q new house on the clothsspost Of Farmer Brown $ yard, vas where he and Mrs. Vim sofne would build their nest and make their home this year.

I. really was quite shocking 10 hear two such beautiful little folk quarreling.
 Winsone declared that he would have nothing to do with the home fin the house that Mrs. Winsome had chosen; 10 which Mrs. Winsome re piled that he would make h!s home there or he wouldn't make 1t with her al all. Winsome did his very best 10 induce Mrs Wirsomn 10 come over 10 the house he had chos- en and a, least give it trial. You pill remember she did go over long enough to poke her head inside and then flew back 10 the house of her oHn choice.
 Now Winsotne's choice was really the better Of the two. He knew II vas, and that is what made him so cross when Mrs. Wiusome refused n have anything 10 do with it. And Winsone vas more than half r}Eh- when he said that the reason she wouldn't have anything to do with ,t was because he had discovered it first He knew that he had made mistake In not leading her over there and letting her think that she lad discovered it.
 All this caused Winsome BjUahirl to quite lose his temper. Finding tha. he couldn't tease Mrs. WiusoIue into going over there. he undertook to drive her over. That vas a mis- take, a very great mistake. The more he tried to drive her, tha more set she was on staying right there tn tho Old Orchard And il made 2 scandal In the rnighborhood ,lf 'he feathHred folk heard tne fusa and Of conree t made great deal c" talk. Some symparhizel pI'N N'iueoue, but others didn't hesitate to say that Mrs, Wineome nag quite right Finally, finding That h. couldn't drive her over there. Win soma went off by himself and su,f- ei. Then h. flow over to Farmer Browns dnorvard and perched close hy that house he SD wanted to build his nest In. Hh still declared that | vas going 10 nest there or not ' ast at all.

Colloquially in commercial transactions they often have the same signification, as where piece Of machinery or the produce of an estate is "Euarran- tead' for term of years, "warran- ted being the more appropriate term in such a case. But in strict legal usage the two terms are Wiie- ly distinguished in this. that q war ranty is an absolute undertaking or liability on the part of the warran- tor. and the contract is void unless It is strictly and literally performed, while a guaranty is q promise, en- 'irely collateral 10 the original con- tract and no. imposing any primary liability on the guarantor. bu. bind ing him 10 be answerahle for the failure Or default of another.
