ills. Rattles was obdurate. She really was. She had ma up her mind that she and Rail es were to make their home in a bis 58110 pit some distance from the Smil- ing Pool and the Big River. They had nested there once before. but Rattles had decided that this year he wanted their home somewhere else. The real trouble was that Rattles had been ieeiins out of sorts at the time Mrs. Rattles announced that they were to make their home over there that

A fishermen who has had bad luck, quite often is out of sorts. lie had no breakfast, and of course that is enough to make any one teel out of sorts. so Rattles had said that Mrs. Rattles might make her nest over there. but he would have nothing to do with It. "I guess that will settle it." thought he as he said it.

But it didn't settle it. You see. Mrs. Rattles was olidurate. Yes. sir. she was obdurate. She had made up her mind that they would make their home in that sand pit, and that was all there was to it.

"The children-will have to be fed fish. and it is too far to carry fish from the Smiling Pool and the Bib River. We would simply wear our wings out trying to do it." protested Rattles.

”We did it once before. and I doirt recall that our wings were any the worse for it," said Mrs. Rattles.

"Well. I'm not golnglto have anything to b with a- nest ever there, and you may as well mlka up your mind to that right now," declared Battles.

"That really is too had." said Mrs. Rattles. "it really is. You see that is where I want to have our home, and that is where we me going to have it. or we won't have any home. Just think it over." I

Just then she saw a small fish

fish disappeared head-first down her throat. Watching it disappeirr didn't make Rattles feel any better. Rattling harshly he took to his wings. and flew down Laughing Brook toward the Big River. Mrs. Rattles watched him go. Then she took to her own wings. Where do you think she flew? She flew straight to that sand pit. She was obdurate. She was going to have her nest over there, or there wouldn't be any nest. ' "When he's had a good break- fast he'll feel better." thought Mrs. Rattles, as she began look-
