Feline Atiachmcnf.

A little iour-year.old daughter of one
of our citizens has a kitten that shows
an uncommon degree of attachment for
his little mistress. The child will take
the kitten under one arm, and with the
other loaded with her playthings carry
them about the house ali day long,
talking meanwhile to the kitten as a
mother would to q child. They are
almost inseperable companions, and
when the little girl is away from home,
the kitten is wild in its lonesomeness,
and shows the greatest joy on the retnrn
Of its companion by leaping into her
armr and laying its head on her shoulder,
purring her satisfaction in so loud man
ner as to attract the attention of all in
the house. A few evening since the lit
tie girl was put to bed while the kitten
was asleep behind the stove, and the
bedroom door closed. The kitten on
awakening wandered through the rooms
in search of her playmate, to have her
regular evening frolic, but could not
find her. Then she was in trouble, and
showed her feelings by the most piteous
cries. She would wildly run from one
room 10 another, jump into the laps Of
all in the room, and, not finding her
friend, would jump on to the bed, turn
over the pillows, work herself under the
clothes, and, not finding her there, would
run swiftly about the house, uttering
pitiful walls. Finally she found the
child's clothing, and for moment was
happy. She pulled them out of the
chair and dragged them partly across the
room, and finally lay down upon them
fora moment, But they were inanimate,
and the one she wanted was not there.
She then made for the bedroom door, and
there crying pitifully, began 10 push
upon it, trying to get it open. Shortly
the cries ceased and all was still, The
child's father went TO inspect the cause,
and found the kitten had opened the door
and was lying by the side of her little
friend, with her paws around the child's
neck and her head against her cheek,
purring her happiness into the ears of
her sleeping friend.-Nor'cich CONN., }

The Elephant Pickpockct.

She wore one of those pockets behind,
in which, besides her handkerchief she
had deposited an apple, handful Of pea
nuts, quarter pound of gumdrops, a
little bottle of ammonia, and some Other
trihes. She and her swain, after admir-
ing the complexion of the huge beast,
turned their backs upon him to watch
the monkeys and the live kangaroo, and
gaze into eTch others eyes; TO do this
better they leaned back against the roIe
which enclosed the stately monarch of
the south, who saw the apple portruding
from the pocket of the unconscious fair
one. He hesitated 4 moment and was
lost to all sense of honor and self.respect,
for with shuiling gmovements he emulated
the example of our common mother,
plucked and ate the fruit, scOoped out
the gumdrops and peanuts with a sly
wink at his nephew, who was looking
with anxiety at the proceedings But
in the last mouthful the majestic beast
took in the ammonia bottle by mistake,
the cork came out, and about an ounce
of hartshon ran down the throat of the
beast. This beverage is said TO have re-
yiving and stimulating influence, and in
this case it proved its power, for mere
revived elephant was never seen onearth.
The big elephant has learned lesson in
morals which will probably induce him
to let other peoples pocketsalone, though
nobody dares TO carry bottle within
range Of his proboscis,-Kansos City

lE0rU's Little TND,b.

There is hardly a child in the broad
land who has not become familiar with
tho verses, MARY Had a Little Lamb"
nor a college student but has sung them
to dozen different tunes. 1t has been
parodied, paraphrased and translated
into the dead languages. And yet scarce
any ono knows who is the author
or whether it is fictitious or founded on
fact. But it is the true account of an
incident that happened in 1914, not fifty
miles from the Cradle of Liberty, and
Mary" a delightful old lady of three
score and ten, still lives and cherishes
the memory of the event. The writer,
on recent visit, craved from her own
lips the true story of the affair, and will
reproduce IL.
{" II was when was nine years old ,"
she said and we lived upon the farm,

THE ENGLISH TURF.

Lord Ailesbury has written letter on
blooded horses which almost provokes
the London Times into faCetiousness.
The Thunderer, roaring greatly, inquiries
whether it is not very proper that there
should be some among the peers to
whom the fate of the christian subjects
of Turkey should appear of little impor-
taDce in comparison with the prospects
OF the Newmarket spring meeting,
Lord Ailesbury does not, however, speak
80 much of the Newmarket spring meet
ing as he does of two topics rather more
generic, namely, the practice of hand
icaping and the French policy of protec-
tion by which English horses are now
excluded from certain races in France.
Handicapping, he thinks, is contrary to
the interests fof breeders, since it does
not provide that the best horse should
win at the same time, he is free to con.
