the crow to release her and let her return in pace to her kingdom. , "Never! Never!" thundered the crow in the same terrible voice, and at last Sylvia became silent from lht dread of hearing that awful word. ( Just then a shrill bugle call was heard in the valley so clear and ; strong that the crow gave a start- ' led iiimn. hut Svlvia. seeini; a hone fin- ese;,no .-tnsAverefl the e.ill w it h 1 la ringing cry. The sound of a gal-! loping horse was heard and Sylvia: cried again .and again. ! Swiftly approached the rider. It i was the Prince. I , Two joy t ill cries arose as Sylvia' and the Prince recognized each other, and the Prince, leaping from his horse, was immediately beside Sylvia's rage, In a few sentences Svlvia told him her story. Without tarrying a moment. Prince Tawn threw aside njs n,,avv ,,f ln;ij used in the wars, .and started to work. First, he tried with his sword to cut down the branches that made Sylvia's rage, but the branches were too slrong and the sword broke in two, which made the crow. ho had been standing bv watching the I events vviih a worried look, chuckle vv nh glee. Flinging the broken sword hilt to the ground. Prince Tawn threw himself on one of the brain lies with all his slrengih. After a long tussle the mighty branch fell down. Hranch after branch the 'rince felled in the same wav. Af ler a mighty struggle the last great branch was down, and just as the red sun dropped from sight, Prince Tawn, with a glad cry rushed to Sylvia's side. Immediately the dark blue sky turned to a glad deep blue, the sun came out, and the mad wind became a quiet, playful little breeze, and the trees stopped their terrible swaying With a little cry, the crow fell over in a heap, dead. Hirds of bright color began to fly from all sorts of directions and sing of their great happiness. And in this miracle of beauty, the Prince and Sylvia stood spell bound. Then from a leafy branch close beside her, Sylvia beard a! soft chirp, and looked around to scej the mOHt beautiful bird she ever! saw. And all at once it started to spak ; "I am the Master I!lue Hird," it chirped In a voice so charming that it held thf Frince and Sylvia in a spoil. "I am the ruler of this forest all tbp year round except oim

day which belonged to Hlack Crow, who long ago cast a strange charm and made himself ruler for that one day. lie was to have been allowed to keep one person, that stood beneath his nest as the sun went down. lie almost won you today. Hut this warrior, by his great strength, has broken the evil charm, for there were two of you who stood beneath his nest at sutisei . The crow is dead, llenceforth I am ruler of this forest, and' I am Happiness. Keturn to your kingdom, my friends, with the joy-1 ful greetings of the Master Ulue Hird." I Suddenly the voice slopped speaking and the beautiful bird was nowhere to be seen. Picking up the glasses of gray i shell which she had dropped when I the Prince had appeared, Sylvia saw that the lights of rose color , were once more (lancing over the : soft gray surface. Swiftly and with great joy they returned to the Kingdom of the Good King, where, wilhi.ii twenty days they were married, in the King's palace before! the gay company of the loyal sub-: ' jects of the Good King. Wrinkly! Hetty was there, of course, and; made Sylvia very happy by" giving1 her the wonderful gray glasses for i a wedding present. j I And Sylvia and the Prince were (always kind and brave and they. lived happily ever after.

It made its nest in an apple tree and kept the crows and hawks away. The other was a brown thrush that built its nest in our hog lot. I haven't seen the little birds for a long time because they left the nests. "I have a cow and pig and some chickens. I got the pig when it was little.
