Smallest Horse in America.

BernhaFdt Kaiser OF 300 South
Fourth street, Milwaukee. Wis, owns
the smallest horse in America, posi-
bly, in the world 1t weighs SO pounds
and is native Of Japan. She-for it
is mare-measures Just % inches
from the hOof to withers, and 26 inches
from her ears to the root OF her tail.
Her father was very small Shetland
stallion and her mother was dwarf
household pets in the land of the Nj
kado. Mr.. Kaiser keeps his little pet
in small inclosure in one Of the back
rooms Of his house and feeds it large
ly on milk. though it has long passed
the age of weaving. being two and .
half years old. The horse is not de-
formed in any way, and is a perfect
specimen OF the equine genus on u
small scale, II is an affectionate and
playful animal, but shows its resent
ment against any one interfering with
its comfort by kicking ou: with its
hind heels, just as if 1t were a big
horse and could do some damage The
little horse looks smaller than the
smallest goat, and is hardly the size
OF setter dog. 1t is perfectly healthy
and seems to enjoy life better than its
larger brethren who are Obliged to toll
for their oats. Mr.. Kaiser says it is an
intelligent animal, but that It does not
understand any language exceGs ia
panese.

This Cat Has False Teeth.

This IS story about a remarkable
pussy cat. II can boast of what no
other feline in the world pcssesses-a
set of false teeth. Some weeks ago ths
household pet mewed pitifully and re
fused to touch the daily allowance OF
meat that was given her James DeveE,
her owner, lives in Morristown, Pa
He was very much distressed at seeing
the poor animal apparently i'll and
suffering without being able to learn
the cause. Finally It occurred to him
perhaps the cat had the toothache He
promptly examined her gums and
found they were very infamed. The
surgeon recommended visit TO the
dentist The dentist said the decayed
teeth must be removed before any re-
lief from pain would be had. Finally
the dentist laughingly suggested that
the cat would have to have false teeth
or die. After rubbing pussy's gums we'll
with cocain-saturated antiseptic cot
ton, the teeth were pulled. In few
days the first set of false teeth ever
made for a cat was put in her mouth
She was i'll at ease for some time
after little she grew used to the new
molars. At the present time she is
well and happy. She now eats her
food regularly and seems to enjoy the
same freedom in masticating It she
did previous to losing her teeth.-New
York Herald.
