:v-t tn Iler Cla*e. The engiea vere balding a conren tiou—or it uilg’.it have been merely a caucus-on tbe rocky crest of a lofty bill. I’roud regal birds they were, piercing of eye. sharp of beak anil strong of claw, und all tbe timid creatures of the air retreated to a safe distance and watched them with awe. Presently, however, a wandering turkey buzzard, attracted by curiosity, ventured to join them. They eyed her scornfully, even threateningly. “What are you doing here?” they ■aid. “This is a gathering of eagles. You are a vulture and are not in our class.” “You are right,” replied the turkey buzzard. “I am of some use in the world, while you are thieves, robbers anil murderers and not worth a continental except for show.

"What made your father think It wouldn’t?” "Well." replied the little fellow simply, “be said your face would stop a clock.” —London Tatter. ■no r ua K’«.
