Slowly he rises, going toward the woods, where he hopes to enjoy his well earned meal, but he has reckoned without his host. The king of birds has been watching lis every movement and, if found suecessful, is in readiness to exact that tribute which the stronger always demands and compels from the weak, Almost quick as thought the eagle is pursuing the hawk, and for a little while a merry chase it is. But the eagle is the master, and the hawk instinctively feels it, as after a sudden, violent swerve, only Just to evade the terrible claws of the now enraged eagle, he drops the prize and slowly flies to the other end of the lake. There ts no need for haste now, as the master was after tribute, not the hawk. Payment having been made by Yelinguishing valuable property, the eagle e€ more displays his wonderful activity by catching the pike before it strikes the water and then as leisurely to cover to gormandize.—Forest and IN THE CHURCHES, Places of Worship Where You Will Be Welcome W.
