A correspondent writes in reference TO a

The photograph of COW sucking lambs
which appeared in the Sketch drove me TO
my notebook TO look for similar Instances
of the maternal instinct overpowering the
barrier OF species. Here are a few from
Northumberland sources which may in
terest your readers: In a workman's room
at Parkhead, Glasgow, in November Of
last year, might have been seen a cat
nursing a young rat with three Of her own
kittens. How she came 10 adopt the rat
deponent saith not. The cat was valued as
a ratter. In February of last year, at
Five Oak green, in Kent, a retriever be-
longing to Hinton Jones gave birth 10 a
litter of ten pups. Five were drowned
and the reduced nursery failed to satisfy
the retriever's maternal heart. She raid

original strength. This retriever's agility
was more remarkable than her arithmetic,
for she had TO leap a high wall into the
sty and out again. None OF the young
pigs so annexed were at all injured by the
experience We all know that a broody
hen will expend her time and patience on
anything from a chalk egg to a beer bot

cases Al a farm house in the Ravoch dis
trict, Aberdeenshire, the house cat kitten

feelings which she only could explain, took
forcible possession of those kittens ana
sat upon them assiduously, resenting with

necessary ministrations TO her offspring.
Tn May, 1895, at Stanlake park, Twyford,
Berks, vagrant tabby produced four
kittens in the manger Of an clubhouse. and
her family was almost Immediately adopt

SO bent was the fowl on matching
these kittens that a fair stand-up fight
