DOG SAVES BABY KITTENS.

Gyp Heard the Family Decree Drown
ing and Secreted His Friends.
Gyp the Brooklyn terrier which
achieved notoriety two years ago by
saving his masters family from death
by asphyXiation through an escape of
gas by a timely warning, has recently
given such proof of kind heart as to
deserve further mention, his friends
think.
Henry Thomas, a well-knOwn resi-
dent of Flatbush, is Gyp's owner and is
willing to vouch for the truth of the
following story: Not long ago the house
cat presented the family with litter
of six kittens. AS it was inconvenient
to have all of that number grow up in
the back kitchen, it was decided to
pick out the prettiest one and to drown
all the rest. To reach this decision and
to select the fortunate kitten a family
council was held, at which Gyp was
present. Though he took no part in the
discussion, he understood enough of
what was going on to feel that some
| danger threatened his friend the cat
and the kittens were to be the victims
| of some horrible plot.
That same afternoon, taking advan-
tage of the cats temporary absence
from home, Mr.. Thomas, armed with a
pail of water, approached the box to
carry out the judgment of the council.
To his surprise he found the kittens
gone.
No one about the house knew where
they were. Mr.. Thomas took the trou-
Bile to make sure of that. The cat just
then returned and stepped half way
into the box before she noticed some
thing wrong. The poor cat showed
soon enough that she at any rate had
had no hand in their disappearance.
! Where could the kittens be? Who could
have taken the trouble to remove them ?
No stranger had been in the house all
afternoon, and everyone in the family
denied having anything to do with
them.
1t was not until two days later that
this mystery was cleared up. Gyp and
the cat, although quite friendly, were
not very chummy, and so when she was
seen going into Gyp's kennel in the
clubhouse an investigation followed, and
the six kittens were discovered com
fortably installed in Gyp's own quar-.
ters. Mr.. Thomas is sure they were
carried there by Gyp himself to save
them from some. danger his subtle
senses told him threatened his friends
young ones.

:ached to the imperial department of
the West Indies. has recently discov-
cred several colonies of stingless bees
in tue island of Monserrat. He is
now trying what can be done by the
use of modern hives to improve their
honey producing capabilities. Modern
apiarists are of opinion that they can
make the honeybee conform to almost
any conditions. so that Mr.. Morrison's
experiments will be watched with
some interest The honey of the sting

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby de-
stroying the foundation of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing its work. The

Mrs. August Pfalzgraf, of South
Byron, Wis, mother of the young lady
whose portrait we here publish, wrote
in January, 1899, saying her daughter
had suffered for two years with irreg-
ular reconstruction had headache all
the time, and pain in her side, feet
swelled, and was generally miserable
She received an answer promptly with
advice, and under date of March, 1899,
the mother writes again that Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound cured
her daughter of all pains and irregu-
larity.
Nothing in the world equals Lydia E.

Tradition says woman must suf-
fer" and young women are so taught.
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. If a young
woman suffers severely she needs treat
ment, and her mother should see that
she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to a physician for examina-
ton: but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham's Laboratory
