unreasonable hour, only to find upon
arrival that little or nothing is the
matter with the patient. An eminent
English surgeon was called to an
"urgen; case" of this sort, and found
that the patient, who was a man of
great wealth but small courage, had
received very slight wound from a

Mingo, the Spider monkey, belonged
to a tribe known as Coaita, and came
from the valley of the Amazon.
Mingo's fifth hand or tail was so deft
and cunning in all its movements that
one wondered whether somewhere
there was not an eye or two concealed
in the coarse hairs to enable it to find
its way about.
When Mingo walked a limb the fifth
hand was invariably caught on a
higher limb so that, when he lost his
hold, as he sometimes did, with his
hands and feet, he swung in safety by
the tail.
The tail was frequently employed to
inspect crevices in its owners house,
and it could pick up very small objects
with the greatest ease.
When approached Mingo would
often extend his tail and grasp ones
finger with it in most confding man

kittens a little orphan chicken. cher

The little waif was accidentally cast
upon the world, the egg which con-
tanned it being Matched in an unac-
countable way, without the warmth
always given by the mother hen. The
little kittens and their adopted sister
thrived in peace and harmony together.
Of course. the little stranger did not
eat at the same table with the rest of
the family, but found its nourishment
from little insects worms and crumbs.
But they baslled in the sunshine under
the same material guidance, and
warmed on cold nights at the same
motherly breast. The strangest part
of all is that when the kittens arrived
at maturity the old cat parted with
them without murmur, while nothing,

her to the chicken, now grown to

of a large Newfoundland dog, whose

by a number of lusty puppies, writes

Evidently this was what was wanted,
for Immediately the object coiled
around the leg Of the puppy in gentle,

toward the door.
The little dog protested after the
manner of his kind, but TIE visitor was
persistent, and slowly the puppy was
dragged out of his own house. across
the foot of space between, and after
some little scufiling disappeared into
the other house.
\ moment later along came a kitten,
and stopped before the doorway of the
second doghouse, and out came the
long. insinuating object again, and be-
fore the kitten could object, even had
she been so disposed, one of her hind
legs was encircled, and she, like the
puppy, moved toward the doorway,
dragged along tail first.
She uttered single plaintive meow,
which, understanding something of the
cat language. l considered more a

MOTHER KANGAROO.
This Tells Yon Hsw She Loves and Bringo
Up Her Children.

Up Her Children.
This mother is as fond of jumping as
the grasshopper is, and nature has
given her the power to take long leaps
and to get over the ground faster that
way than most animals do in running.
She takes sometimes thirty feet at
jump, which is pretty rapid locomotion,
you see
The kangaroo, for ! suppose you
know what animal is referred to. can
walk, but it is an awkward walk at
best. Apparently it would be better to
hop when hopping is SO much easier,
and no doubt the kangaroo thinks SO.
The tail of the kangaroo is almost as
good as a fifth leg to her. She rests
upon it in walking or jumping and
uses it as weapon to strike animals
that attack her.
The kangaroo is said to be sociable
animal. 1t lives in the woods, in herds.
But the strangest thing about the
mother kangaroo is the way she ar
ranges her nursery. She does not CON
struct house in a cave or hollow
tree or in the ground. Nature has
provided her with a soft, furry bag Oh
the under side of her body. SO she car
ries her babies around with her every
where she goes In this bag the babies
stay until. at eight or nine months old.
they have grown strong enough to hop
out Il little and eat some nice, fresh
grass while the mother is getting her
own dinner.
But even when it gets to be pretty
Dig child the baby kangaroo likes to
creep back again sometimes toits cozy,
warm summer nursery and take nap.
And while the babies are hopping
about the mother is very watchful AT
the slightest suspicion of danger she
picks up her children, pops them into
the bag and off she hops with them to
safer place.
In Australia the giant kangaroos are
hunted for food. They are very good
to eat, and they often have occasion 20
hop as fast as they can to get out of
the way Of hunters who are determined
TO have a good dinner of kangaroo
meat. Sometimes they are caught in
nets. Indeed. there are all sorts of
why's of catching them.
