Broad of wing and wih mar- ve.lous eyes, the Western cousin of King Eagle of the waiie head kept watch over a very wide piece of country. It was Talons the Golden Eagle. There was little that went on that he did not see, for whether he was lazily perched on a tall tree or a cliff, or sailing just beneth the clouds, his sharp eyes were ever searching the grcund. He knew all about the arrival of Farmer Browu's Boy and Flip the terrier. He could have told you what they did and where they went each Cay. They did not interest him much in themselves, but they did interest him because of their effects on the little people in fur and feath- ers whom they were forever dis- turbing, often frightening. - So it was that Talons soon dis- covered how Twitchtail the Squir- rel was teasing Flip. At first Talons had given the ma'tér no particular attention: "If he don't look out that silly Squirrel will get himself in a peck of tr ible,' thought Talons. "That Dog is smart, and one of these diys he will be too smart for Twitchtail. I hope he'll have more success than I have had. I must admit that Twitchtail has been too sart toy me. I'm glad, I'm cer- tainly glad that some of his fam ily and neighbors haven't been Quite so smart." He snapped his great hooked bill, which was his way of smacking his lips. So, for a while he watched Twitchtail and Flip, more for the fun of watching them than for try special reason. But Talone long, ago learned to take note of little things, and presently he saw that Twitchtail was sc busy teas- ing Flip that he wart keeping a proper watch for other hunters. A new interest gleamaed in those keen eyes. "I must keep an eye on those fe'lows," he muttered. "That Twitchtail must be losing his senses. He hasn't eyes for any- thing but that dog. He is the smartest Squirrel! in these par-s, but he appears to have turncd foclish now. I would ratter catch him than any othar Squir- rel I know of, just because he has been so smart, and if he keeps on I may have a chance. I'l! keep an eye on him. Yes, gir I'l] keep an eye on him." It was true that Twitchtail was growing more and mor: careless and less and less watchful. In his exciting game with riip ne he was forgetting other dangers. Less and less often did he look up in the air for Hawks or Eagles. And then one morning he learn- ed a lesson he never forgot as long as he lived. It happened this way: Twitchtail was a little farther than usual from his dorway un- der the big rock. From the top of that rock he had seen Flip coming. At once Twitchtail had scampered to meet him. He was feeling particularly good that morning, so he went just a lictle farther than usual, sure that when the time came he could reach the safety of home before Flip could catch him. He had eyes for no one but the approach- ing Flip. He sat very straight, watching Flip draw nearer and nearer. Suddenly Flip saw him, and with a yelp started for him a3 only that lively little Dog could. Twitchtail turned and headed for home at his best speed, with Flip racing after him. It was very exciting. Twitchtall began to won- By W. Burgess der if he hadn't made a mistake this time in going so far. There war a little chill of real fear that gave added speed to his legs. He was almost there, when the sun was shut off an instant and a moving shadow swept over him. At the same time thera wae the Lise of stiff wing feathers. He knew what it meant. Ie had heard that sound before. More than once he had seen a careless rne.ghbor disappear forever at the lis: of wings. He forgot Flip His one thought now was to reach that doorway in the very next jump, for he felt sure that if he failed to he never would reach it. Foor Twitchtail! In that one little minute he realized how very foolish he had been. He knew that now he would be likely to pay, and pay dearly, for his care- lessness. He plunged for that open door, that little hole under the rock, and for two or three minutes after he didn't know ivst what did happen. Indeed, he nev- er did know all about it. (Copyright, 1931, T.
