This Little Pig Came Home.

A New Jersey farmer tells this re-
marl<able story to the Evangelist, and
vouches for its truth: II had more
pigs. than wanted to keep, so sold
one to man living in the neighbour
ing village. The little pig had been
living in the pen with his brothers and
sisters, and had never been outside of
it until the man who bought him put
him in a basket, tied down the cover,
and put it in his wagon to carry to
the new home. Late in the afternoon
the farmer who sold it saw something
coming across the svvampy meadow be-
low his home. He watched it strhe-
Cling through the wet places, climbing
the knobs, until he could see that it
was his little pig, all covered with mud
and very tired. He went straight to-
ward the barn, against which was the
only home he recognized. The money
was returned to the man who had
bought it, and the little pig stayed at
home" "a -

and spreading out her skirt, dotted
it here and there with the pieces. Sew
eral good-sized slices were saved for
her arms and shoulder, and last, to
top off, she placed the core on top of her
head.
All this was done slowly and DELHI
erately, and when it was finished Olga
sat as still as statue. Blinking and
shifting, the willy Juneau sto.e softly
toward the apple line. The apple was
juicy, and the bear put aside all fear
and malice, and nibbled contentedly
up to the two blunt little feet which
were set up so sturdily before her.
There the cub paused to study the
silent figure, but finding that it did
not move or offer to be friendly, she
continued her feast.
Slowly and carefully she searched
over the dress, not missing a morsel
and finally shifted at the little girls
shoulder. Stepping gingerly into the
soft lap. Juneau rose on her hind feet.
rested her forepaws on Olga's chest,
and hastily gulped down the remain
ing bits of apple until none was left
but the tempting core on the child's
head.
Then the bear, clinging with her
sharp claws to the cloth jacket, climbed
upon Olga's shoulder, clasped her
round the neck for "a balance, and nib
bled the core.
I wondered if any of the grown-up
white people on that ship could have
sat so still. Our little passengers
courage never failed her. There was
not the culver of an eyelash to show
that she was alive, and the wary cub.
with grunt of satisfaction, went back
to her box to sleep. Not until then did
the child move from her cramped posi-
ton. Jumping up. she ran away full
Of glee to tell her friends.
Next day there was large audience
which stood at respectful distance
to watch the novel performance. The
experiment of the day before was re-
peated with even greater success. for
Juneau ended it that time by cuddling
down in the soft, warm lapeand going
to sleep.
OF course these two little natives of
Alaska became great friends. and when
we locked at San Francisco the captain
unclaimed the pretty cub, and put her
into the arms of the only person who
had had wit enough to tame her
