There is no doubt that the Major felt very gay. He was fast losing the lean and hungry looK he had when he first appeared in Pleasant Valley. And he became freer than ever as to manner. Nobody else could go about tho woods with any comfort, because one never knew when he would have to dodge a stone.

But nobody could suggest any way to cure Major Monkey of his unpleas ant habit And at last Mr. Crow wont to Aunt Polly Woodchuck and asked her if she couldn't give the Mat-nan herb of some sort to eat, whi-h would make him stop wanting1 to pelt every head he saw. But Aunt Polly replied that it wasn't possible. "The trouble with Major Monkey," she said, "is that he eats too much as it is. And if I gave him still more food he would only throw more stones at yon." Mr. Crow exclaimed that he didn' want that to happen. "Then you'll have to make the Ma jor eat less," said Aunt Polly Wood chuck. "On what sort of fare Is ho living at present?" she inquired. Mr. Crow answered thtt he wasn't quite sure, but he thought Major Monkey fed for the most part on cowbird's eggs. Aunt Polly Woodchuck shook her head. "That's not possible," she cried. "There ajen't enough cowbirds' eggs in Pleasant Valley to make anybody so fat as the Major is getting. Un less I'm mistaken, he's taking the eggs of a good many others besides Cowbirds." Mr. Crow became greatly excited. "Then he's a thief!" he squawked. "Major Monkey is an egg thief!" Aivi he flapped away across the pastuvo in a fine rage, to tell everybody what Aunt Polly Woodchuck, had said. A little later in the day Major Monkey began to notice that a gool many of his neighbws looked at h'.m very coldly. The birds, especially, glared at him as if they were actual ly angry. And wherever he went they set up a loud twittering. Some of them even flew at his head and tried to peck him as they darted past. At first he couldn't imagine what was the matter. But before the day was done Jasper Jay let him know what made the bifd people angry. "You're a sneak thief!" Jasper told the Major bluntly. "We've fouod at last what makes you so fat. You've been stealing eggs from every ne3t fn the Woods!" "Tut! Tut!" said Major Monkey. "When a lazy Cowbird lays an egr in somebody else's nest, the owner ought to be grateful to me for taking the egg out and eating It." "It's not hat,'.' Jasper Jay replied. "The trouble is, you've taken all kinds of eggs." "Well, well!" said Major Monkey. "To be Bure, I may have made a mis take now and then.
