Those who always have l,h_rlr way Also have regrets some day Old Mother Nature. When Mrs. Brown had gone into the house, Mr, Wren had something to say. He had quite a lot to say. “Now you see,” he began, “what happens from | building in such a silly place as this. If we had built over in one of those | g«r{ecuy good houses, we wouldn't have o | en bothered, I felt it in my bones that something would happen here. Half our work has been undone and there is no knowing when our whole nest will be pulled out. It is no place for & mest and I knew it in the be- ginning.” *YOU_ SEE;’ SAID HE, “IT'S JUST AS I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE." *Tut, tut, tut, tut!” scolded Jenny Wren. “You know too much. Didn't we drive her away? We can always drive her away, I have set my heart { on @ nest here, and here it is going | o be!” “All right, my dear, have your way. But if something happens, don’t say I didn’t warn you,” retorted Mr. Wren. “I tell you:sgain, it-1s.no place for a nest.” Mrs. Wren flirted her tail and didn’t say & word. She flew out of the shed and in & jiffy was back with a little stick, which she took into the clothes- pin bag. Mr. Wren~sat around for a few minutes and sulked.

BURGESS went to work, and soon was working quite as hard as was Jenny. Meanwhile Mother Brown had told Farmer Brown's Boy about the queer place Jenny Wren had chosen for her nest. “I don't like to pull that nest out,” said she, “but how under the sun am I going to get my clothespins? I don’t need them today, but I shall need them on washday. I can’t hang clothes out without clothespins.” “We’ll buy some new ones,” sald Farmer Brown's Boy. “I'm going to the village this afternoon and I'll get some new clothespins, They don't cost much and it is worth more than they will cost to have a pair of Wrens nesting in such a queer place. I'm going out to see them for myself.” So Farmer Brown's Boy went out to the shed and no sooner had he stepped inside than he received such a scolding as he had never had before in all his life. It made him laugh to hear those two little tongues go. The scolding began before he was near the clothes- pin bag and as he walked up to it and peeped inside, it seemed as if Jenny and Mr. Wren had quite lost their heads with excitement, Farmer Brown's Boy remained only long enough to peep in. As soon as he had disappeared in the house Mr. Wren began again. “You see,” said he, “it’s just as I thought it would be. We'll never have any peace here. Those two-legged crea- tures will be coming and going all the time, if they do not do worse. It won't surprise me to come home some day and find the nest gone. You must have :e:n crazy when you decided to build el Jenny Wren pretended not to hear. She went right on hunting for nesting material and left Mr. Wren to talk to himself, ' Finally the nest was finished. In due time there were six eggs in it. Mother Brown, Farmer Brown and Farmer Brown’s Boy came and went without ever offering to touch the nest. Jenny Wren and Mr, Wren got used to them. They didn't even scold when Farmer Brown's Boy would once in a while peep in to see those eggs. | “I told you!" cried Jenny Wren tri- umphantly. “I told you that this place | would be all right.” “The babies haven't arrived yet, Wait till they come. That cat will get them as surely as the sun rises in the mbrn- ing.” grumbled Mr. Wren. “You can borrow all the trouble you want to, but don’t bring it home,” snapped Jenny, and went into the clothespin bag to sit on the eggs.
