"'Perhaps you would get along In mis

"That was tin much for Jllster .lav Ilird

"He had not down far when he heard tho
most beautiful music he had ever heard
lie knew It vvns the Nightingale, and Ihe
song had such a sadness that he wondered
if sadness was what mnde the song so beau
tiful or what It was In the notes that nt
trtirted hiiv Ho flew still faster and soon
enno to where tho Nightingale Was seated
on a rose bush pouring out its song to the
boundless world of the forest .
"Drawing nearer, he saw Hint tho Night
ingale had its breust held against n thnrr.
Higher nnd higher went tho notes or tho
Nightingale, nnd ns .Mister ,lnj Hird stopped
to listen he found tho tears swelling in his
eves When tho Nightingale had stopped
It looked up at Jllster Jny nird In surprise
and said'
Oh. what is the triable win m-p you
a. vim?. Jllster Jnv Bird? Is It because I
sing with my breast pressed against a
thorn?'
.i." said Jllster Jny Hird thoughtfully,
something In your beautiful mag touched
my heart. Pray tell me, how may I sing
as sweet Iv ns vou?'
The Nightingale turned lts sad eves to.

-All suffering must find expression, nnd
In expression It will reach other hearts
suffer much nnd thon pome hack and 1 will
try to tench you to sing '
'"Thank you, answered Jllster Jav Tlird
Jllster Hear told me to do more thinking
and I guess f will follow him first and tljen

To slaughter the poor animals uselessly was
cruel, especially as being unaccustomed to

For the rest we lived on the fat of the

marked that the Kendall to the best of his
belief lived in a country that was still
hundreds of miles away, and that as they
did not know of our presence, nn communi

our proceeding seemed foolish
I rptorted that I was not .mite so sure
of this since tho Kendall seemed tu have

"Then JlacumaEuuu. I fear that vou will

he would do, pointing out that to journey
into the desert meant dentil, especially as
we did not know whither we note going,

also be a risky proceeding However, it

"Yes. you have, O Prophets, or i Liars,
