Aunt Este's Stories For Children My clear little ones: I want to tell you the queer story of a few little ducklings to night—so open wide your ears —and don't make a bit of noise until it Is llnlshed. The Tale of Mr*. Gray Duck nnil Mr*, Black Hen Once upon a time in a beautiful big Barnyard Village lived a great number of wibbley-wobbley ducks —they were queer sort of ereatures. with their funny hard beaks and their webby. wob bling feet, and their beautiful glossy yellow raincoats—so that no matter where they went, or how hard it rained, they were always dry, no matter how wet the other Inhabitants of Barnyard Villago were. N»w among these wibbley-wobbley, webby-footed folk was an old gray duck—who hid away a nest of eggs for a long while— for you sc-e like old Mother Hen. she was just crazy to have a family. She just thought that little yellow fuzzy-wuzzy ducks were the cutest things on earth. Often when times wero very quiet in Barnyard Village and there was no excitement—such as rooster fights, or the dress parades of Mistress Peacock, Mother Hen and old Mrs. Gray Duck had arguments. "You can't tell me," Mother Hen would say, "Ducks indeed! There's nothing In the world to come up to little chickens. Why n little duck's feet are 1 enough to mark them as freaks. Just watch how much more graceful the dear baby chicks are." "Ducks for me—every day," answered Mrs. Gray Duck. "Have you ever seen such a helpless thing as a chicken in the water?" But aa 1 said, Mrs. Gray Duck Just hid away a whole nest of pretty big eggs—intending to hatch them out as soon as she got time. But one day Mrs. Gray Duck came to find her eggs— and what do you suppose? They wero gone! Plum, gone! My but she was cross—and she was crosser than cross when she came by Mother Black Hen's house one day 'and found that she was going to have another family—(you see her other little family was quite grown up, and as she had never gotten over her love of babies the farmer had set her again.) "X am furious," said Mother Gray Duck. "My pretty eggs I have been hiding are all gone—l don't see why it Is some fowls have all the children and others none. Here you are again sitting on another fine hatching of eggs." "You guess It's a tine hatching!" said Mother Black Hen. "Why I never saw such big eggs. I guess 1 am going to have dandy chicks." So day after day Mrs. Gray Duck strutted around the barn yard, quacking and fiissy, but at last she decided she might as well have a good time as not, since she couldn't have little ducks, So she ran all about while Mother Black Hen sat and sat on the •test.

Poor old Mrs. Gray Duck walked sadly over and saw Jittle yellow heads peeping out from under Mrs. Black Hen's wings. One after another until Mother Black Hen's wings would hardly cover the brood. "They're fine fellows." said Mrs. Gray Duck, "In fact, they look good enough to be ducks." Well, Mother Black Hen Just too care of those little babies day after day, but neither she nor Mrs. Gray Duck ever once took a look at their feet—until one bright day—when they were quite pretty little yellow fellow*—Mother Black Hen asked them to take a walk with her, and she asked Mrs. Gray Duck to go along. On they went until they came to a little stream in which Mrs. Gray Duck decided to take a ride. Old Mother Black Hen stood on the hank to watch her, and told her yellow peeps to do 1110 same—"for," said she. "If you get near that water you'll be drowned as sine as fate." Well, Mother Black Hen turned around and looked to her hmise a bit —and all of a sudden she heard a flapping of tlnv wings—and would you believe It? Every one of those little babies had followed Mrs. Gray Duck right into the water. Mrs. Gray Duck screamed and Mrs. Black Hen screamed—but Instead of seeing them drown—what do you suppose? They saw them swim over as gracefully as you please—off, off, down the stream Mrs. Gray Ducked looked at Mrs. Black Hen, and Mrs. Black Hen looked at Mrs. Gray Duck—and when the babies came back they looked them over—and what do you suppose? Mrs. Black Hen had nothing more nor less than a brood of ducks. Some one had brought her the eggs Mrs. Gray Duck had hidden and she had hatched them out, never knowing the difference. Then old Mrs. Gray Duck laughed and laughed. "They're my babies —and I never had to sit at home to hatch them out." - "They're my babies!" at first answered Mrs. Black Hen, with tears In her eyes. "Quack! quack!" said the little yellow ducks—and then Mrs. Gray Duck and Mrs. Black Hen both laughed—for of course they knew that little chickens would have said: "Peep-Peep." "Well," said Mrs. Gray Duck, "I guess we'll have to let you be foster mother to them-«-and we'll both look after them —you on the land and 1 on the water. And so the ten little ducks had two mothers and they never knew which they liked best. Lovingly AUNT ESTE. DECEMBER 5, 1914. | Columbia Minister Is Called "Chief Laborer" THE REV. OSCAR M.
