A friend of uine has a robin's nest
that he guards with very great eare,
and aboutwhich kh e tells a story to all
he young and old peoble who call upon
him.
"There Ik a romance," he says, as he
shows you the nest, "abcut this, and if
you want to hear it, I will tell it to
you."
"It was a good many years ago," my
friend begins, "that tlis nest was maldj.
There came one morning early In April
two robins to the big Jlr-tree in front
of my window. Onla ot them had, as
sure as you live, a club-foot, and Ie
hobbled atout upon it Iin a very lively
manner, and I know that It was this
one-Mr Robin, I call jimin-that fixed
upon thle precise place for tle nest.
For he whetted his bill upon a bough
a great many times, and then lie danced
upon It with one foot and the other, a
though trying its strength, and at last.
he flw up to Mrs R,biln, who was
standing on the limb above looking at,
him. My window was open, and I
heard 1im peeping the gentlest little
song toier thut,you can imagine. Then
*he jumped down upon the llinb, rub
bed ier bill upon It, and danced, while
he looked at her, and after she had
done these things site sang the litle
melody. After that they flew away
with great speed, and the next that I
saw of them they were working with
might and mai, bringing twigs, moss,
twine, and all sorts of things, uitil at
1ast they alitd the nest ma 10.
Now my friend, when lie g.ts .o far
in his story, always stops a n-onmci.t
and laughs, thoughyou cannot see any.
thingto laugl at. But lie looks closely at
you, and j tust as soon as he observds the
siurprise that your eyes show, he says:
Ol ought to say right here that my
mother had a very choice piece of lace,
i collar or som:thing of that sort, that,
was washed and put out upon a little
bush that very day that Mr and lrs
Robin decided to build the nest in the
fir-tree. A great fuss was made that
evening because the laeo collar could
not be fou nd, and mother wianlteti lite
police called, so that tile thief might be
arrested and the collar got back, for
that collar was worth, I have heard, a
great mn11y dollirs. lt the pollee
never foiid the till 1.
"Now 1 will go on wit.11h my story,"
always continues my Irlend, and he
generally takea the nest in his halids
at this t.ime. "Well, after this ne;t
this is the very oio I hold in my hand
-was built, you never saw a more a
tenlve lover than this Mr Robin. 1 Ie
would hop about with his club-(oot,
and Scim to put his eye right, upoin an

1lying back and forth with lis mouth
full of good things for Mrs Robin, and
he would feed hiol as she sat tipon Ihe
nest,
"One day lie sceimed specially ex-Ite-d
and happy ; you could hear li ;n sing
lug in the trees more loudly than be
fore, and I could see fr1om my window
tile cause of his joy. lFour yellow
mnonths were lput upi to receive t.he
dainties he had brought, and then I
knew the littlo robins had comie. Wlol,
old Mr Robin wvas so excited that lie

argle--wormn. l'1issy had hiIm In her
mouth before lie coul give a warning

"By and by Mr's Robiti seemed to gel
hungry, and 1 heard( her utter'ing two
strange notes that I nad never hieaird
before, and( whieh seemedlCt to meI to
soun d Julst as8 though she was say'I ig,
'Come here I come here 1' Oif course
that was not wh:lt sile said, but. I have
