Then she squeezed her way under the feed box which held the oats, for horses have oats to eat too, which is something like our porridge before mother cooks it. She thought she found a pretty good place when just as she was thinking that, George, the horse, came in for his suppér, and ohâ€"Lady her. Nearly every day Lady Hen laid an egg and it always went along with all the others into the basket when they were gathered. But toâ€"day she thought she would do what Miranda Sparrow told her to do and what do you think that was? Well, Miranda Sparrow told her to hide her eggs. She told her to hide them where noâ€" body could find them. So Lady Hen Lucy went off by herself and thought the barn looked like a pretty good place. She walked right through the door, making sure that no one saw her go in, after which she started looking around for a place. At last she hopped up onto a manger. Do you know what that is? Wel!l, it‘s the place where the big horses and cows get their dinners and suppers and you know horses eat hay.

She always did this before because she liked the kind lady from the big house who fed all the chickens such good things and gave them all the good clean water they could drink and because she did these things it made Lady Hen Lucy want to leave that egg in the nest for a present because she was so good to 1 cup brown sugar, 2 cups honey, 2 ©gzs, 3 teasp. soda, 1 teasp cream of tartar, 3 teasp. ginger, flour enough to roil.

Now, we have them twice this size." Old Norah surveyed him from head to foot for a second or two. Then, in a tone of pity, she exclaimed, "Ah, sir, yo must be a sthranger in Ooire land and know virry little about the fruit of our counthry when ye can‘t tell apples from gooseberries!" i "When a man sits out a dance to rest his feet, ho‘s dogâ€"tired." in there. _ Soon she got up, looked around, and sure enough there was a nice white round egg. Oh, how she wanted to call out and say "I laid an egg!" over and over again as she alâ€" ways did befere, but ‘this time she thought she better be quiet or someâ€" one would come and take it away. She wanted to keep it nice and warm so she sat on it all night and didn‘t go back to her house at all. _ She got sleepier and sleepier, for it was nice and warm in there and the kind old dark was coming and putting its zen-1 tle hands on her eyes just like it does to you, little girl, and you, little boy.

After all this she thought perhaps she had better go back to her own house and started back, but then she thought of thoge little baby chicks again and remembered what Miranda Sparrow told her, so o% she went hunting once more. Just then She happened to see a nico little corner away back in the straw room where one end of an old board had fallen down. Under this was some nice soft straw and it was dark and quist in there, oh so quiet.

So she flew right over to where Moliy, the nice cow with the kind brown eyes, gets milked. Molly likes to come into the barn every night to get all that good supper the nice farmâ€" er man puts in her manger for hor to eat while she gets milked.

It was necessary that this shock of conviction should be followed by symâ€" pathetic and friendly instruction in the Christian way of life. "Ananias, a devout man according to the law, who could understand and perhaps to some extent sympathize with Paul‘s Phariâ€" saic mind, was the chosen instructor.
