I wish all little girls and boys might have a little place of their own to raise chickens and ducks and turkeys, etc. Now to-night X want to tell you the story of THE TIME OLD BLACK HEN STRUCK Once upon a time in Barnyard Village lived the dearest little Black Hen you ever saw. She was just a fat. roily polly sort of a creature with a shiny black suit and little beady eyes. Well w hen ■he trrew biff pnouKh to l£iy CKKS Ilk® her friends she WHS just too pleased for anything. She laid the whitest, prettiest eggs that were laid In her coop house and she was very proud of them, because, you see, she had been led to believe all her life that _ when she was able to lay eggs she could hatch a little brood of chickens all her own. . But little by little Black Hen found out that eggs were not only laid In order to hatch little baby chickens. No, indeed—in fact she became quite Indignant over the way she was treated for no sooner had she laid a pretty, big, white egg and started to cackle a bit nbout It to her neighbor hens, and tell them what a fine thing she had done, than some big giant of a man or woman came out to the nest where It lay. and without so much as a "thank you" or "by-your-leave" carried the pretty egg which Black Hen considered all her ow/i, away—and she never so much as saw the shell of It again. Well Black Hen just stood it as long as she could —but at last she got up her dutch. If you know what that means—she ruffled her black feathers a bit —and she made up her mind she would not lay another egg—no sir, not one more egg. ho she Just sat on the nest all day and would not budge; and whenever anv one came to look for an egg she picked at them and ruffled some more until she looked about twice us big and fierce as she really was. .. . . The folk from the farmhouse got so cross that what do you suppose they did to poor old Mrs. Black Hen. Well, they Just pulled her out of that nest by the back of her shiny back tall and threw her—ruffles and peck and all—out Into a driving rain. My, but Mrs. Black Hen carried on. She Just cackled una cackled, and cackled; and clucked and clucked —for she was HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH MIFFLINBURG HUNTING PARTY AND THEIR GAME TROPHIES J Special to The Telegraph Slear Photo.

"Cure me Indeed!" snlfTed Mrs. Black Hen. "I'll show them." So she just kept up her dutch—lndeed, I think she got It up some more—and refused to lay eggs—she Just would not lay eggs, but every chance she got she crawled back to that nest—and sat some more and brooded. Well, one day Mrs. Black Hen was rewarded for sticking to her Idea. She heard the farmer say as he came out to look at her: "Give her thirteen eggs and set her—perhaps she'll feel better then." Well, sure enough the next day out came the farmer man with thirteen of the prettiest eggs and laid them In the nest —and for six long weeks no one disturbed her or said a word to her—ln fact they were as nice as could be and brought her things to eat and rlrinks of water—and poor Mrs. Black Hen commenced to think after all the world was right nice. There she sat—day after day—ln sunshine or In rain—for three long weeks, and after while she was rewarded once more—tor one morning she awakened and right beneath her left wing she heard a faint "peep-peep" as If It were muffled. Well, she just moved a bit—and there she saw one egg was picked—and a tiny little voice was saying: "Let me out, mother Black Hen; I am your first baby come to live with you." And after while there was a rap on the door of another shell and another voice said: "Let me out, Mother Black Hen, I have come to live with you." And so all through that happy day one by one the little egg shell doors opened and one by one little babies came out until Mother lilack Hen was the happy and proud mother of thirteen little yellow fussy-wussy babies. Ami then such a proud "peep-peeping" and cluck-clucking you never heard —and even old Daddy Booster joined in the fuss and celebration with about ten more "cock-a-doodles" than usual. "Kor after all." said he, "Black Hen makes a very beautiful mother and I don't blame her In the least for wanting to show what a line mother she really could be—and those babies are pippins."
