Lioness and Puppy.

Here is a tale of a strange animal
friendship told by a writer in a recent
issue of The Westminster Gazette. The
story is unique. According to the writer,
a lioness that was kept in captivity in
Somaliland adopted a bull terrier. There
were several bull terrier puppies near
the place where she was confined, and
once in awhile the little fellows would
come close to the cage. Then she would
snarl, and the puppies would scamper
back, but there was one that seemed to
have the good will of the lionness, for
one day when he approached the cage,
instead Of growing, she showed signs
Of pleasure.
The puppy was encouraged, and after
blinking at the lioness he walked boldly
in. To the surprise of the keeper, who
was expecting to see the puppy quickly
killed, the lioness stretched out her
huge paw and gently drew the dog in.
The little fellow was delighted with his
reception, and he snuggled into her
warm fur and has remained with her
ave. since. The curious thing is that
the lioness will have nothing to do with
the other puppies. If they come to the
cage to see how their little brother is
getting along, she growls at them in
tones so loud and menacing that they
are frightened off. Meanwhile the
adopted puppy is treated by tho lioness
Just as if he were a cub Of her own.

The Shirt Waist Collar.

It would be interesting to trace many
of the SO called caprices Of fashion to
their real source. Many, as is well
known, are Of historic origin and re.
ceived their inspiration in the within OF
some royal or other distinguished per.
sonage. The introduction Of the sepa-
rate collar shirt waist, which has and Ii
enjoying a great vogue, was, it is said,
due in the first place to the laziness OF
q cutter in one Of the fashionable tailor
shops where ladies' waists are made.
He suggested and advocated the style to
save work, 1t vas discreetly talked uI
by the head saleswomen, who received
the customers, and the thing was done
well done, too, most women will testify.

A weathercock Made by Paul Revere.

In taking down the steeple of the old
Methodist church in Watertown, which
the Young Mems Catholic association ID
remodeling for its use, the historic old
weathercock on top Of the steeple had to
be removed. He is "a feet high, with
a pewter body and copper tail, and Ia
said to have been made by Paul Revere
when about 30 years old. 1t is said that
the weathercock was originally placed.
in 1855, on the old church building
that was demolished in 1887. There is
some dispute about his ownership, the
Unitarians claiming that he vas simply
loaned to the Methodists when the lat
ter built their church in 1947, while the
Methodists claim that they bought him
from the town. He will probably be
presented to the Watertown Historical
society. boston Transcript.

of five. They planted it in corn.

waiting of it themselves. They have
been doing most of the husking them
selves. During the beautiful weather
we have had, Il bevy of them would
go out and take their dinner with
them and husk corn all day. The
yield has been over thirty bushels per
acre, and they have hauled it to town
and cribbed it here They have, as a
result of their labors, about twelve
hundred bushels of fine corn, and the
fellow who thinks he is going to get
that corn without paying good fat
price for it is thinking through his
