HANS AND THE TAIBIES.
"Grey.Warbler" (a shy, retiring little bird, with a grey-grees jacket and a wistful song) thus conveys tie thanks of Bird-Land to a gailast knight:—
Chur-rup, ehur-rup, the August month, the month that us offended, Has now become our luekj month, ax.i ( all our care is ended. "We scratched, and delved, and hopped about, looking for tit-tits rare, But, like Mother Hnbbard who went t» the cupboard, we found the larder bare." Then all of a sudden, like manna from Heaven, food lay scattered around, And we ate bur fill with right' good .will; —our grub for,us was found. So thanks, warm thanks, to J. C. A.— our champion and our. friend; To all who did. our table lay) and our small wants attend. And. if it should hap' that money is slack and you've only a crumb or two, Why, then, we'll do what the ravens did, and bring some "grub" to you.
