Gautier's Cat and Parrot.

Gautier, the French writer, had cat
which slept on his bed at night, on the arm
Of his chair day time, followed him when
he walked, and always kept him company
at meals.
One day friend left his parrot in eau
tiers charge during his absence. The
poor bird sat disconsolate on the top of his
stand, while the cat stared at the the strange
sight.
Gautier followed her thoughts, and read
ehere clearly, ut must be green chicken.
Thereupon she jumped from his writing
table, crouched fiat, with head low, back
stretched out at full length, and eyes fxed
inmoyabIy on the bird
Parrot followed all her movements
raised his feathers, sharPened his bill,
stretched out his claws, and evidently pre-
pared for war.
The cat lay still, but Gautier read again
in her eyes. NO doubt, though green, the
chicken must be good to eat.
Suddenly her back was arched, and with
one superb bound she was on the perch,
when the parrot screamed out, Have your
breakfast, Jack p
Pussy was almost frightened out of her
wits. She cast an anxious glance at her
master, leaped down and hid under the
the bed, from which no threat or carcss
could bring her out for the day.-Dana6

rands. "Well, then, said Marley, "bring
out the coach and four, put the pitcher in
side, and drive to the well, = a service which
was several times repeated, to the great
amusement of the village. To this may
be added story of Harrison Gray Otis,
who found one morning at the breakfast
table that the milkman had not brought
any milk. He asked each of several ser
