Pleasant Talk About q Bright Llstle
Squirrel.
A contributor to Our Animal Friends
talks very entertainingly in the octo-
Der number about a gray squirrel that
she had tanned, and that without shut
ting 1t up in a cage. She says, among
other things: Whenever I sat down
on the piazza steps with handful of
nuts in my lap, my little gray friend
was sure to appear. One day 1 saw
him holly pursued by another squirrel,
which was evidently much enraged.
Ihey darted from tree to tree and from
branch to branch. until my Cracker
saw me, when he instantly made a wild
leap in my direction, sat down close
beside me on. the steps, and hurled
Viturperation at his foe. The latter
dared not come near. and presently
SUNK away, leaving my pet victor AS
MS FEAR wore away, Cracker began to
show himself a veritable oliver Twist;
ne was never satisfied with the num-
Der of nuts I brought, and when 1
showed him my empty hands to con-
vince him that l had no more, he would
jump up at the step above me and
claw at my sleeves. evidently thinking
that bushels of nuts might be consealed
IN their folds. One afternoon friend
attempted to take a photograph of
Cracker sitting on my knee, but that
gentleman was so much interested in
the camera that for some time I could
not induce him to look at me. He
examined the camera carefully at all
sides, took the cord which held the
cover in his little black paws. and
showed "a disposition to sit on top of
the case. coaxed him to come to me.
put when the shutter Of the camera
closed with little click, he whisked
up tree and chartered angrily at us,
as II scolding us for a breach of faith.

Within few feet OF the grave OF

a dog, with a monument of his own

People who live north of Mason ana

for their dogs. This feeling Is az

as on the horse. Doc, the big. St. Ber-

Clay, only a year, and Mrs. Clay de-
cided the faithful animal should be
buried in no other place than Lexing-

bands grave. Mrs. Clay has written
the story Of their pets life and death.
AT Mr.. Clay's death Doc transferred
mis- directions to Mrs. Clay, becoming
her bodyguard. He fell sick, suffered
from blood poisoning, and not until he
became blind and could not eat would
MRS. Clay consent to have him killed.
with an almost Byronic affection, Mrs.
Clay has written, HE was only dog,
yet bitter tears dropped over his

sympathy and grief, With his brown
