a Remarkable storv Of Dogs Devotion
to Its Onspring.
A remarkable dog story comes from
BonniebroOk farm, near Saltwater,
Sussex county. Among .the valuable
dogs kept on that large stockfarm is q
handsome collie bitch. the private prop
erty of Joseph r. Dennis. to whose
family Bonniebrook belongs. Three
weeks ago she bore litter Of eight
fine pups. but seemed to have difficulty

OF the farm hands to accomplish the
deed and Il was done. The sdhpping
corpse of the two puppies were then
buried in the manure pit.
The next afternoon Head Farmer
Briggs. in paying his daily visit to the
youthful CANNES, was overwhelmed
with amazement to find that the collie
had in some way dug up the bodies and
brought them back to life. She was
licking aud fawniug over them in a
corner Of her bed. Mr.. Dennis was sur
prised when informed of this resur-
rection, and day or so later he per-
sonally attended second attempt to
render life extinct in the two puppies.
This time they were placed on q chop
ping block and their heads beaten, with
q club. Their mangled bodies were once
more buried in the barpyard pit
Mr.. Dennis visited the Waverly fair,
and on his recent return to Bonnie
brook was net BY Briggs with the as
information that the collie
had again found the melancholy graves
Of the two puppies and had dug them
mp again. She had left one ON the
ground with life extinct, but had sue
ceedcd in resuscitating the other. She

in her mouth 10 sthe head farmers

the front stoop. where no one could
reach it. fsk'sftF sf'Ess
The puppy is alive to-day, and is Wis

that it will grow up to return thanks

Laying hens should have all the Glow
er they can eat twice o day during the
winter. 1t is bulky, so there is no
danger of their eating too much, as
there is Of grain. Cut the clover into
half-inch lengths and scald with Just
enough water to answer the purpose.
Fill the troaghs with It so each hen
can get all il wants, but remove all
that remains after the last hen walks
away. Don't feed wet food TO poultry;
il may be moist, but not wet A pound
of clover hay chopped fine is enough to
feed 10 hens 50 far as the bulk Is con.
grain which may be added. To make
it more palatable sprinkle . little bran
over the clover aud feed whole grain.
A good ration can also be made by
mixing pound Of clover. pound Of
bran. ounces of dried meat that is
lean and ounces of linseed meal
Wheat or corn can be fed at night.
Such . ration will supply the white,
yolk, shell and warmth. Il Is also
good plan to have some other litter in
which little grain is thrown SO rs TO
induce the hens to exercise during the
daytime. There is no surer sign that
the food for laying hens lacks Ger
tain elements than to have them refuse
the food that you are giving and read

son why hens will sometimes refuse
corn and eat wheat, and, after little

circumstance took place: Amongst
the performers in this excellent COM
pany was a young female lion tanner
named Irma Delavante. Irma at all
times was a quiet and lady-like young
woman, much the superior of the
majority of the girls who figure as
riders or acrobats in circuses and
variety shows She was q remarkably
handsome and graceful artistic. and had

it was grand and thrilling spectacle
of the mastery of mind over matter.
The performances took place in the
arena, which was inclosed in q massive
iron railing. (At the present time q
similar railing protects the audience of
the Cirque Nouveau at Paris when six
lions are in the ring.) BY this
ample space was secured
for the marvellous leaps OF the lions
that formed the exciting finale of the
exhibition. Irma Delavante's instincts
were essentially artistic, and often
