very Young, into the house " one Of my

I brought il up together With her own
Young. This kitten became q great fie-
/ uuenter of the stables and made two

The horse and the goose have been
\ known TO be excellent friends for 8 long
( time, the bird rubbing his head. in the

/ have mentioned, under another head
| ing the odd friendship that was struck
uD between a kitten and brood of duck.
/ lings. the kitten always going 70 sleep on
| the ducks when they had settled down
| for the night.
| Another odd instance Of friendship
| occurred ia the house Of one OF my
| friends.
| He had a fine Newfoundland dog
/ which took fancy 20 brood Of young
ducklings and constituted himself their
| protector They were quite willing to
/ accept him In this capacity and followed
4 him about just as II he had been their
mother II was a specially interesting
1 sight 10 watch the dog and the duck
| lings taking their stesta The dog used
| 70 he on his side and the ducklipgs
would nestle all about him.
| There WAS one duckling in particular
which invariably scrambled upon the
| dogs head and sat on the eye which was
uppermost both parties appearing TO be
| equally satisfied with this remarkable
| arrangement, though the dog must have
been put TO no small Inconvenience by
the pressure on his eye.
IL IL really curious TO notice the ap.
pafentiy incopgruous friendships which
are often found among animals.
know OF monkey who was accus
toned 10 live in hen-hOuse. he formed
Il friendship with one OF the inmates, a
hen which was IN bad health, and the
