Not Afraid of a Gun and Liked Beiag
PeIted BY Boy.


Strangely enough, there was nothing
OF which this crow stood so much in
lear as crows themselves. os-en they
would come perilously near aud .scaw
at him. Heller SHELTER he would fly 70
the house, and his relief was painfully
manifested when he was safe inside the
kitchen. Their wild life evidently had
no charm for him. He was IN terror If
large snakes, too, but small ones he COB
BLEED up as fast as he could. 1t was q
most effectual way Of preventing them
from frightening him when they grew
bigger.
No attention was given 10 his educa-
tion, at last we discovered that he
could repeat a word or phrase Of con-
versation be had just heard. He could
laugh like human being and initiate
the cackling Of a hen StOp,' Hell
lor' .Hold oni' were favorite express
sions of his, and generally his use Of
them was intelligent De liked to perch
on top Of the barn and shout ont
"Stop.r at the farmers that went by IN
their wagons. If they refined in their
horses, thinking it was some person that
had called them, the success Of his lit
tie joke would cause Jim to burst into
immoderate laughter.
He actually enjoyed being SNOWFALL
ed. He would stand upon an old tree
stump and look saucily at the boys, as
much as TO say: Come. now, here's a
good shot Why don't you hit me:'
But Jim was always too quick for them.
No boy ever could hit him. He would
dodge like lightning, laughing hoarsely
as the ball flew harmlessly past or broke
in pieces ON the other side of the stump.
Then up he would hop again, with an
other challenge, ready for the next snow
ball.
He was not afraid Of gun. He would
stand close by while one was being load
ed, and it might he fred off number
of times without having any perceptible
effect on him. But he was keenly alive
to its danger, and the very moment The
muzzle was pointed at him he lost no
time in getting ont Of the way.
jim was a very mischievous crow JIM
deed. When Grace, the baby, was learn
ing to walk, he would seize her slyly
by the dress aud cause her TO fall. He
would peck at the toes of the barefootcd
children that came for water and laugh
heartily as he drove them dismayed
from the yard Sometimes he would
steal umoticed down into the cellar.
Tho blows he could give with his beak
had the force of of a small hammer, SO
that it was very easy matter for him
to turn the spigot of a barrel. One was
pretty apt to discover after such visit
that all the vinegar had run out on the
floor. Malcolm Douglas in st. Nicho-

A SMART CAT.
How lie Convinced Himself That 1t Was
Ills own Image.

Ills own Image.
The late DIR. Romanes, in his Ami
nal Intelligence, - gives two stories of
cats, which, on seeing their own refiec-
ton in a looking glass, convinced them
selves that the reflection was an illn-
sion. IN the case Of very Intelligent
cat'of mine. he went, l think, step
beyond this namely, he satisfied hi.a-
self that it was in some way his own
image. Even if my deduction is wrong,
the first part of his proceedings was so
singularly like those in DIR. Romanes'
accounts that it seems as though it
were a uniform law of cat nature TO act
in this way. and SO far it may not be al
together uninteresting.
put the cat on "A table in front Of a
small toilet mirror. After looking at his
reflection for a short while he went be-
hind tho glass Then he returned to his
seat in front and again watched it at
tentively. After few moments he rap
idly dashed behind it. He again return
ed to his seat in front of the glass, and
while retaining his seat and keeping
his eyes fixed on the image he struck
ABOUT behlnu tne glass WIFI MS paw III
different directions
His next action was, fancy, suggest
ed by seeing the image apparently strike
with its paw also. Keeping his seat and
retaining his eye fixed on the image, he
proceeded to (if may use the world
posture in front of the glass. Heraised
his paws alternately, licked them,
touched the glass, moved his head, etc.
