A Canine Egg Roller.

To the Editor of The EVENING STAR:
Washington lady determined some months
ago to set an old hen. She placed fourteen eggs
In a nest, and the hen accepting the contract
without a murmur, proceeded TO business with
the patience and perseverance for which hens are
justly renowned 1t was noticed that the eggs
began disappearing daily, one at a time, In q
manner most mysterious. One afternoon, hearing
great noise In the hen-house, the owner pro-
ceeded to investigate and was surprised TO md a
small dog, owned by neighbor, barking furfously
at the hen. and endeavoring TO drive her from the
nest He at length succeeded In the face OF vigorous
opposition. and taking an egg In hts mouth carried
IL some distance and carefully buried ftin pile OF
sawdust. After while he returned to the saw
dust, uncovered two eggs took them to parking
near by, and there played at egg-r0lling, showing
the eggs along with his paws, catching them In
his mouth, and tossing them from place TO place.
apparently as much delighted with the sport as a
child would be. This continued fifteen minutes or
more, and he then brought the eggs back hid
them away In the sawdust for future use and
departed. deciding, doubtless TO engage In some
mere Intellectual pursuit. HC.A.
