pared to spring upon his ratship. AT
the appearance of his ancient enemy,
the cat, a Scotch terrier, which had
been summing itself in the woodshed,
pricked up its ears and quietly made
for the place where the cat stood. At
this moment boy came upon the
scene. The chickens were not cog
infant of being watched by the rat,
nor did the rat sec the cat, nor the
feline the dog, who had not noticed
the coming of the boy. A little chick
wandered too nigh, and he was seized
by the rat, which was in turn pounced
upon by the cat, and the cat was
caught in the mouth of the dog. The
rat would not cease his hold upon the
chicken, and the cat, in spite of the
shaking she was getting from the dog,
did not let 60 the rat. 1t was fun for
the boy, and in high glee he watched
the contest and struggle of each of
the victims. 1t seemed to him that
the rat was about to escape after a
time, and, getting stone, he hurled
it at the rodent. The aim was not
good, and the stone struck the dog
right between the eyes. The terrier
released its grip on the cat and fell
over dead. 1t had breathed its last
before the cat in turn let go the rat
and turned over and died. The rat
did not long survive the enemy, and
beside the already dead chicken he
laid himself down and gave up the
ghost. The owner of the dog was so
angry at his death, that he is said to
have come near making the story
complete by killing the boy that
killed the dog that shook the cat that
caught the rat that bit the chicken in
the yard on Blank street.

A Very Tough Story.

A very tough story which is vouch-
ed for, after fashion, is given for
what it is worth by the Clipper. 1t is
related that Mr.. S. M. was sitting in
his back yard, talking to some friends,
when his attention was called to a
hen with a brood of young chickens
and large rat that had emerged
from its hole and was regarding the
young chickens with the prospect of
a meal in view. AS the rat came
from his hole, the house cat awoke
from her afternoon nap and caught
sight Of the rat. Crouching low she
awaited developments, and stood pre-.

It Was the Right House.

A Winchester farmer was standing
at his gate the other day, when a
weary-looking tramp came toiling up
the road, and halted and asked:
"Is your name Simmons p
"Yes, sir"
"And your wife, before marriage
was a-a-W
"One Of the Black girls, sir"
"And her first name was Mary ?"
"No, sir. Her name was and is
Elizabeth"
"Ah So it is. But fourteen years
is long time. How is my sister
Elizabeth ?"
"Are you her long-lost brother?"
II am"

of you"
"Ah! the dear girl! She will be
so glad to see me again. And you,
my noble brother-in-law, let us shake
hands,"
They shook.
IL had thought of stopping with
you for-for the winter" observed
the wayfarer, with an anxious look.
"Y-e-es, presume so," replied the
farmer.
"And my dear sister has spoken of
me ?"
"She has. She was expecting you
this very day and she asked me to
stand at the gate and watch for you"
1T is so kind of you"
"And | am now about to give you
the all-fredest pounding an old liar
of a tramp ever got. That's what
your dear sister recommends! !"
I'll believe I'm mistaken p gasp
cd the tramp. ut must be the next
house!"
"Oh, no; this is the house, and
here goes for you
When the tramp finally got away,
leaving the ground covered with shoe
pegs, buttons, old hats, crusts of
bread, and pieces of cold meat, he
halted at u safe distance and shouted
back
"Is my game an old one in this To-
cality?"
"Well, some one tries it OH me
every day." replied the farmer.
"All right. I'll try the next house
with receipt to make fre-proof paint
of soft soap and brick dust. Much
obliged for your posting me, and give
my love to Libby dear l"-Bufialo
