Five Birds and One Kitten, How the Seven Brothers and Their Little Sister Escaped From the Bear NCE upon a time, very long O ago, in the Indian land, dwelt seven brothers and their sister. They were brave war- riors and expert hunters, and every day the brothers went forth to the chase and brought home game for the little sister, One day the bear, the great cross, shaggy, black bear, made up its mind to go to.the hut of the seven broth- ers and the sister, kill them all and have a fine meal, “I do not like those seven broth- ers,” said-the bear. “They are al- ways~ out shooting with their ar- rows,-but they can not-harm me, try " as they may!” It was quite true. No arrow that the brothers let fly could harm the bear, and consequently they were very much afraid of him, ‘When they heard that the bear was coming to their home they consulted together and taking the little sister by the hand said: “Little one, we must flee, for the great black bear {s coming to kill ©?8 and-dozens of turtles wandering stone and paused. ‘There were UB all, “and-ho-ty-far°stronger than #bout- ebay pay tebtabireto ry Aaa THE STRIPED TIGER The tiger {s a cruel beast So I am glad that this striped beast And eats small children up; Does not live close, you see; He looks for one whene’er he thinks For now I need not fear at all, That it is time to sup.

Jamies and Ellen meant to wateh nd see what happened next, but their eyes grew heavy and their ears were dull with sleep. They did not hear the stars calling to each other. “What shall we play? Oh, what shall we play tonight? “Soap bubbles!” shouted a very, Iit~ ; tle star. * So Mother Moon got out her big pipe and a pan of soapy—oh very, » soapy water, She tied a big apron around her neck and began to blow, soap bubbles.

He called his magician. “Weave spells,” he said, “against this lady who would lure away my son to fairyland.” And the magician worked such powerful spells that the lady was obliged to depart, but as she went away she threw an apple to Connla. Connla tasted the apple, and so satisfying and delicious was it that he neither ate nor drank any foods or liquid for a whole month. But always he thought of the love- ly lady and longed to see her again. On another day Connla and the king and many attendants were on the seashore. He saw a boat riding over the waves in which sat the same lovely fairy maiden. “I have come, Connla!” she sald, as she stepped ashore. “Are you Teady to come with me, oh, my be- loved Connla?” But the king recognized the plead- | ing voice and again called on his aha > CONNLA TASTED THE APPLE.
