The Antics of a Tame Grow.
From the Hartford Times. I

A pair of tame crows, that became almost
family pets, have afforded a great deal of
amusement to a family in a neighboring
town. Taken from the nest before they
were able TO fy, they learned their first les
sons Of life in companionship with human
beings, and grew to he almost as tame as the
domestic poultry. They were taken from the
nest, probably, about the 10th or 18th Of
June, and have now attained the size Of full
grown crows.
One marked trait of character, that be-
gan to be developed pretty early and has
grown with their growth and strengthened
with their strength, is disposition to mis-
chief. One Of the two has been, from the
first, much more tame and familiar than the
other. "Jack," as the family pet is called has
developed the thieving and misch:evous
traits of all the crow tribe. He will enter at
an open window, and steal whatever he can
carry off. particularly if it shines or glitters.
In this way he got of with young lady's
gold thimble, which has been hidden where
it is not likely to be found again and he
came near getting off with ladys watch,
which was rescued jus: in time. after he had
got it out of doors. Warned by experience,
the family have to keep the windows shut,
if they leave any room for the time unguard-
ed. One day recently Jack was caught tear
ing off the Wallpaper, of which he had al
ready stripped of nearly yard. A day or
two since he was seen in the act of trying
to lift and carry off rubber door at,
which however, proved little too heavy for
him.
The tendency of both crows was to hi,le
the things they had stolen. These they

She had an antpathy for kid gloves-she
would never put them on. On one occa-

and instead of saying good morning OF
some such human salutation, Mrs. Greeley
touched Margaret's hand with little shud-

her hand. Margaret just touched it and
shuddered, crying "Entrais of worm

Once in stage going up Madison avenue
Mrs. Greeley suddenly pulled the strap,
whisked tin pail out from under her shaw
and, reaching it out to Rev. DIR. Brett in the
other end of the bus, said, you get out,
please, and run to that bakery on the corner
and get cents worth Of yeast" Mr.. Brett
laughed, but he good naturedly got out, and
went to the shop. and brought back the COW
eted bread exhilarator, the driver waiting
meantime, his serenity broken only by a
smile. When Mr.. Brett returned he handed
the little pail to Mrs. Greeley, with remark
that the bread was evidently kneaded, to
which she replied "H-m old joker
