Tit-Bits relates. The horses were trot ting, ii lid behind them the guns rumbled rum-bled and swayed over ruts and stones. Suddenly there appeared not titty yards In front or the lending horses a dozen fluffy brown partrldye "cheepers," tiny mites uo bigger tlian sparrows, running hither and thither In the wildest panic begfi he . jsi F .lSg aAW. "hh them was the mother bird. She chivvied them off into the grass on either side of the road, and then, when the last one had made Its escape, turned and wlfti open tifak and half-spread wings faced the batter', daring them to come on. Had the battery not been halted the bird would have given her life In an endeavor to ensure the safety of her chicks. As It was, she achieved her object by a display of real heroism in the face of hopeless odds. . This Is a typical example of the way nature makes heroines of animal mothers, no matter how timid they may be when they have no family to care. for. In defence of their helpless help-less young, nature's heroines will face any creature that threatens their safety. NOT made with a little milk. It's made with ALL-MILK. Double Loaf, 15c.

The sphenedon Is a reptile and Is a mixture mix-ture of crocodile, snake, turtle, and lizard. As a matter of fact. It 1k probably the ancestor of all tfiese creutures, but lu the process or evolution evolu-tion through countless ages, the "children" linve altered and split up Into a hundred and one different "families." The sphenedon, however, has gone on Its way unchanged and Is exactly as It was eight million years ago. Tills pherlstorlc creature shows greatest similarity to the lizard. It has four short leg and a long tall. Its face Is rather like that of a find 11 ml there Is a hurd ridge on the top of Its head and down Its hack.
