For more than two weeks that air

of a Meadow Mouse. By the time

Manny said nothing.” but he
brought some dry grass and Nanny
was men ai work building a real
nest In that tiny cupboard in the big
man bird. She as*rkfd just as If she
were making lhat nest for the win

as she would have been about a win

yielded to temptation., She just
had to hep how it would seem to
have I real home in that tiny cup

In the grass. But they were back
again just as soon as the way was
clear. There were some days that
they had no visitors at all. They
didn’t even go home to their old home
In the old scarecrow.

the man bird a!«uj s would remain
right where it was. By this time she
had quite made up her mind that it
would. She seldom went back to the
old home In the old sc»»vcrow. She
spent more and more time in this
new home. The tact is, she had be
gun to think of this now as a real
home, the home in wbi<fli they would
continue to live. And this Is what
had come from yielding to temptation.
