The tears came to Chubbins' eyes. He tried to restrain them, but could not. He flapped his little wings dolefully and said: "I wish I was either one thing or the other! I'd rather be a child-lark again, and nest in a tree, than to go home to the folks in this way." Policeman Bluejay had seen his dilemma at the first, and his sharp eyes had been roving over all the bushes that were within the range of his vision. Suddenly he uttered a chirp of delight and dashed away, speedily returning with another tingle-berry in his bill. "It's the very last one there is!" said he to Chubbins. "But it is all that I want," cried the boy, brightening at once; and then, regardless of any pain, he ate the berry as greedily as if he was fond of a stomache-ache. The second berry had a good effect in one way, for Chubbins' wings quickly became arms, and he was now as perfectly formed as he had been before he met with the cruel tuxix. But he gave a groan, every once in a while, and Twinkle suspected that two berries were twice as powerful as one, and made a pain that lasted twice as long. As the boy and girl looked around they were astonished to find their basket standing on the ground beside them. On a limb of the first tree of the forest sat silently regarding them a big blue bird that they knew must be Policeman Bluejay, although somehow or other he had lost his glossy black helmet and the club he had carried underneath his wing. "It's almost dark," said Twinkle, yawning. "Let's go home, Chub." "All right." He picked up the basket, and for a few minutes they walked along in silence. Then the boy asked: "Don't your legs feel heavy, Twink?" "Yes," said she; "do yours?" "Awful," said he. * * * * * * L.
