HE DOCrORED THE EGGS.
and Caught a DAshOnast
0npIOyA.

A Long Island doctor who has been
missing eggs from his poultry yard
for some time is happy at last, for
he has discovered the thief. For
months every effort and every device
to detect the culprit failed, but, final
ly, the doctor hit upon scheme that
was worthy of Sherlock Holmes.
He took dozen or more eggs and
bored the tiniest of holes in the she'll
of each. Then through these holes he
introduced into the eggs a piece of
very fine wire. The holes were then
filed with white wax and the eggs
returned to the nest.
A few days afterward the doctor was
called in to see the child of woman
in the village near him. After attend
ing the child he talked about one thing
and another until the lady told him
of such strange thing that had hap
pened to her. A few days before she
had bought half dozen eggs from the
village grocer and in four of them she
had found short pieces of wire.
These were produced and shown to
the doctor, who took possession of
them, and told the lady how they had
come to be in the eggs. He then inter-
viewed the grocer, who finally admitted
that he had been buying eggs for some
time from man employed by the
doctor. The man il now working else
where, says the New York Times, and
the doctor no longer patronizes that
particular krocer.

.:Punch" is an intelligent, belligerent
and noisy bantam rooster, and he be-
longs to Mildred Bror :, an Armour
dale (Kan.) girl. She has raised
"Punch" from the time he was q hu1ty
chicken which could sleep in teacuP'
until now, full grown, he would have
difficulty in roosting in q quart meas
ure. Mildred has devoted some At
tention to the education of Punch,
and she is as fond of him as he is OF
"Judy," the little brown hen which
was given him for company a rev
months ago. "Punch's" special accom-
plishments show great Intelligence
and careful training. says the Kansas
City Star.
"Punch, here Punch" Mildred calls,
and the bantam trots up to her from
a neighbor's flower garden or from
behind the barn, followed by Judy"
He flies up and aights on Mildrsd's
outstretched hand at her commands.
"Now crow" she says, and away the
bantam goes, straining and twisting
his little body, splitting the air with
his diminutive 'tcrk-ek-crk- rk-ok-ckrr-rr.
"Crow once more," and again he lets
out his voice, while Judy" looks up
admiringly.
"Now we'll have a boxing match" !"
says Mildred, al she places "Punch" IN
position, at his corner of an impro-
vised ring. "Punch's" favorite an
taponist 10 Mildred's grandfather, and
as Mr.. Enochx makes passes at the
little fellow he defends himself with
beak and claws, pecking at the veins
and cords of the hand, making passes,
feints, undercuts and hooks with his
feet. "Punch'" never tires of this game,
and he plays it with the utmost good
nature.

them to his home where his wife
cleans and scours them and puts them
in the sun to dry. When they are dry
he takes them around to the saloons
on the East side and diaposes of them
at prices ranging from four cents to
