LATEST IN FREAKS.
This Chicken Only Had Four Legs. Three
Wings and Two Tails That's AL.


Four legs, three wings and two tails
comprised the unusual allotment doled
out to one brown Leghorn chicken
Matched among brood Of 4 dozen at
the feed store of Lubben Bros, of Ala
media. Cal, this week This most re-
markable freak of nature has attracted
widespread interest in Alameda and
for three days past the little marvel
has been the subject of a great deal OF
curiosity, scientific and otherwise The
chick broke its shell on Monday last.
The abnormal allowance of limbs did
not attract attention until the downy
little mOnstrosity commenced to move.
Then the surplus Of legs. wings and
tails was discovered. The little fowl
was able to move at ease in all direc-
tions, and its comfort was in no wise
impaired by the unsual number OF
limbs scattered about its tiny body The
distribution of the quartet of legs is Pc
culiar. Two are naturally located be-
meath the body. The toes of each pair
of legs turn toward each other.

1t is during such weather as
we are now having that the
memories Of the oldest inhabit-
ants fail. Between the time
Of the last equinoxial storm
and the present so many things
have occurred that bad weather
records are lost sight of.
But it is cold weather Just
the same, colder than is desira-
bic by people who boast of a
climate where sun forms the
chief ingredient. This climate
is changing just as it is in
other places, just also, as the
peoples opinion change about
certain things.
For years there has been a
prevailing opinion that but one
kind of stove was worth TAX
ing into the house. The
opinion was sound so long as
there was no other stove
against it, but with our EN-
pire Jewel range, with large
square ovens, ventilated and
quick bakers, reservoir for
hot water, towel bar and tea
cup shelves and a hundred
other conveniences the people
are willing to admit they have
made a mistake and concede
everything to the Jewel.
