KITTENIsE FREAKS.
Every Variety Of Tan IN Mr.. Kaiser's
Feline Family.

Mr.. John Kaiser of the Wanser Club at
the Junction has in his possession four
kittens. They were born a week ago last
Sunday. Three of these kittens are freaks
of the oldest description. One, g saucy
little black fellow, was born minus a tail.
He whisks abouh urmindful of this and
is just as happy as if he had a tail of
great length.
Another of them possesses half a tail
and struts about proudly waving the
stump in front of his ~tailless brother, who
was less fortunate. The third has a full
grown tail, but the peculiar feature about
it is hat instead Of being straight like
an ordinary cats tail it curls like a little
pug dogs tail. This little fellow when he
becomes conscious of his existence, will
probably lord 1T over the other two kit
tens inasmuch as he possesses a full
grown tai, though it be more shapely
thar lengthy.
The fourth kitten is a. common ordin-
airy kitten. The mere fact of it's not being
afflicted with any of the catastrophes
which have befallen its brothers and sis
terS separates him from the freakish class
and places him among the other ordinary
members of feline society.
What the youfgSter who has no tai
lacks in that respect he makes UP in the
strength of his lungs and the sweetness
and fullness of the tone in which he tells
of his misfortune. A bright future awaits
that cat and it may Some day be reckoned
as a star in the opera circles of the feline
