A Horse Swallows n Ball of Irvine.

A horse In n small town near Norwich,
Conn, which is disposed to swallow any
thing that comes within its reach, re-
GENTLY bolted a large ball of wrapping
Irvine. The ball rolled In easily, but a
knob Mt the end of the cord anchored
itself windward between the animals
front teeth, and the knot and the visible
piece of Irvine served as n key to the
situation when the young groomswoman
visited the stableand inspected her steed.
There was 4 somewhat troubled look on
the horses face as he stood with feet
braced, ears Topped, mouth open, and in
his eyes was a mute appeal that be-
okened a growing suspicion that prob
ably the case was hopeless. The young
lady Embossed the knot, wound six inches
of the cord around her hand and began
TO unravel the mystery. The horse kept
his mouth open, looked wise, and seemed
perfectly to understand what was going
on, and out, yard after yard. fathom by
fathom, the animal c~ompliantly yielded
up his peculiar dinner, and on neither
side of the manager was a comment ut
tered, except that now and then the
grateful beast emitted a sigh as he OBJ
served the external ball swelling In mag
nitude and felt the internal one steadily
diminishing. Finally the last yard of
cord was rceled out of the horse, wound
up and the ball taken into the house,
where the animal couldn't get at Il agnin.
