Hiring uhat you want is nice. If you do not mind the price. —Old Mother Nature.

Billy Mink. of the rich brown coat that women envy him and tiappers try to take away from him, is one of the smartest of the lnur-footed folk 111 the Green For- est and along all brooks and the Big River. Billy is both a fisherman and a hunter. He is especially fond of fish. and is a master fisherman. Bill he likes mrat ton, and for a

. chaiige finds eggs much to his

liking. ,

Billy had found the nest of Rat- lies the Kingfisher and Mrs. Rat- tles. Perhaps it would be mnrc exact in say he had found the en- trance to the home of the king- fisherr. It was high in a bank by .the Big River. It wasn't the kind

sure were in that nest. He was sure there were eggs because he had kept uatch. and he knew that Mrs. Rattles was spending most of her time in that nest. That must mean she was sitting on eggs. He watched until there came a time when he knew no one was at home. Usually when Mrs. Rattles was away, Rattles took her place. This time Rattles had left before Mrs. Rattles returned.

“Those eggs are as good as mine right now," thought Billy Mink, then started to climb up the bank. It wasn't too hard a climb. and he reached the doorway. There he hesitated. He preked 111. He could- n't see far. That tunnel. or hall. led straight in for R little way and then slanted up :1 bit. How he wished he knew how long that hall was. If it went iii only_a little way so that he could get out in a hurry if he had to. he wouldn't hesitate to go in after those eggs.

Billy ventured inside. That was the only way he could find out whether the hall leading to the bedroom and nest was short or long. He went in two or three feet, then stopped. This was a long hall. l~le didn't mind going in even if it went very far in. What he was con- cerned about was getting out again should one or the owners return. This was no plm-e to fight. Faint- ly there came to him the rattling voice of one of those kingflshers. In there he couldn't tell how hear it was.

those eggs now, later when they had hatched he might be able to set some of the young birds. They would be even better than the eggs. And he would have a. better chance of getting them because father and mother would be away fishing for food for them much 0! the time.
