For the Lutheran Visitor,
My Birds.
1 promised to toll yon about my
birds again. Well, the other night
we bad a'hard storm. The wind
blew, and the ruin fell fast. 1
thought about a pretty neat I had
seen iu the pear tree, and I got up
and went to the window. I saw the
tops, of the trees swaying alrnnt, up
and down, sideways and backwards,
and t felt sorry. I said, “Ob, dear!
I think iny pretty nest is lost to
night.” Towards morning the wiud
stopped and the raiu ceased. The
snn shown out beautifully, and the
bright drops glistened in its rays.
A great many birds began to sing
beautifully, and I went out to see
about the pretty nest. Ah! there
it lay uuder the tree. The speckled
eggs were broken, and the two birds
that had built it were living about
and cryiug piteously. I picked it
up and tried to put it into the tree,
but I could not fix it safely, and so
the birds went away and I think
built another somewhere else.
We can learn a great deal from
birds; they are cheerful aud not dis
oouraged, and they sing so gaily
their songs to God. They are p«
tieut and not fretful; they bring the
straws, one by one, to build their
nests, and the twigs of trees they
cat off with their bills and briug
them and lay them nicely, anti then
they line the ucst with horse hairs
that they pick up one by one. They
don’t get tired and say, “1 wish
somebody else would build my nest,
and I wish it were doue. How tire
some it is to have to work,” as 1
heard a little boy say the other day,
when he was asked to get a few
chips to kindle the lire with. Oh,
no, but they By about ami twitter
and sing, and then wheu the young
birds have to be fed, they bunt for
berries aud bugs, and are diligent to
work all day for their darlings.
Then, there is a bird called the
mocking bird, that sings all night iu
the summer, and ? cheer* its mate by
its cheerful ness. So, that children
may learn |>atience, industry aud
cheerfulness from the bird*. Little
Grace told me the other day that
she thought the birds thanked God
because they raised their beads up
after they had drank some water.
Some little childreu never thank God
for all their good gifts to them.
God made the birds, ms only to

A Boy With a Conscience.
A boy with a conscience ! Don't all
boys hare consciences f Certainly they
do. But some boys act as if they
had none. They do not heed what
their consciences say, I will now
tell you of a boy who proved he had
a conscience by what he did.
His name was James. Playing
with his sister one day, he asked her
to do some little favor for him, and
added—
“If yon will do it, I will give you a
thousand dollars.”
Of coarse, this was a thoughtless
speech; and most boys would have
neither thought nor said any more
abont it. But this boy’s conscience
whispered, “Yon have inq^le a pro
mise yon can not keep.”
With tears in his eyes, James then
ran to his mother, and said— .
“O mother! 14^jd Frankie I would
give her a thousand dollars, and I
haven’t a thousand dollars to give!”
This speech -showed that James
listened to bis conscience about
little things. This . was us it should
be; aud it James hail lived to man
hood, he would have made a good
man. As it was, , God took him
when he was years old, and
he is now a saint in glory.
Children, mind what the good lit
tle voice in yonr hearts says to you.
God speaks through that voice.
Heed it well. Obey it, and God’s
other voice ; which speaks in the
Bible, and you will Ijecoine noble
