An Unknown wild Animal,

Deer isle is disturbed greatly about an
unknown wild animal which, it is
claimed, has been around there several
years. He has been seen by quite a
number of persons at twilight or in the
evening, and once or twice has been seen
in the daytime, and is described as being
about the size of a large dog, and some
what resembling both dog and cat,
having catlike head and tail, the tail be
ing long and the ears short. He has a
most peculiar cry, something between a
snarl and growl, and persists in fol-
lowing people along the road, especially
in the evening. 1t does not modest any
one. neither can it be frightened off, but
will follow one along, keeping in the
woods near the road and occasionally
making its peculiar call. A few people
think it to be lynx which, in some
manner, reached the island from the
mainland ON some ice.-Bangor (Me)

The Same Boy.

If your boy amounts to a continental
you will notice that when he comes home
evenings now his lips are stained yell
lowish brown and his fingers are the
color of fresh Egyptian mummy. You
know what it means. You have had the
same outlandish color on your own
hands, no matter how white and soft
they may be now. Boys are boys the
world over, and the boy of today man
ages to get out among the thickets in
the creek bottoms, much as the boy has
done for years and years. In the creek
bottoms butternut trees grow large
trunks, broad, sweeping branches, sticky,
queer fruit and ample shade. By some
strong but wise provision of nature but
ternut trees always grow along the
creek banks, and stones are plentiful in
the streams. They are plentiful also be-
meath the butternut trees, for many
generations of boys carrying big fiat
stones to points where they would do
the most good have brought Mohammed
and the mountain close together.
When your hopeful comes home with
his fingers brown and his face looking
like yellow fever patients he has only
been down to the creek bottoms. He
has been climbing the crooked trunks
and out upon the strong limbs of the
butternut trees. He has stolen the de-
veloping milky fruit not yet ripe, but
delectable, nevertheless, as the lips of a
bride. He has gathered his store be-
meath the tree, and with fiat stone to
hammer on and a carefully selected
stone to hammer with he has sat and
robbed the nut of its kernel and its
stain. 1t is not very satisfactory to the
appetite. 1t is good deal on the green
apple order of feasting. The stains hang
on the boys hands for weeks. But
what's the difference? Boys have eaten
green butternuts since there were boys,
just as ostriches eat glass or billygoats
chew circus posters off the dead walls.
Nobody can account for it any more
than we can tell why pig runs about
with wisp of hay in his mouth before
a storm, or why dog turns around be-
fore he lies down. 1t is enough that il
is so.-Bradford Era.
