COON OF HIGH DECREE.
Hgm Taste for Art Has Gone so Far
as 90 Result an His DevourinE
Pictures.

His name is Rastus-which does
not suggest aristocratic associations,
artistic surroundings, and the hob
nobbing with celebrities. by any
means.
But this particular Rastus has all
OF these. He is a big, fat. sleek coon,
the pet of Frederick keppei, the
print seller in Sixteenth street, New
York. and his home is in a little court
adjoining the shop. while the domain
of his wanderings covers the entire
space occupied by the stock of old
engravings, etchings and prints in the
several floors of the building.
Rastus disdains ordinary associa-
lions. His best friends. outside Of
Mr.. Keppel, are Ernest Thompson Sc
ton and Oliver HEREFORD. Both
these lovers of the four-footed tribe
frequently visit Rastus and hold long
and intimate conversations with his
coonship. A habit that some Of Ras-
tus' friends have Of carrying dainties
for him in their pockets has induced
in him certain pickpoeket proclivities
that astonish casual visitors TO the
establishment.
A few days ago one Of these
stopped 20 examine a print that was
tackled on the wall in a position near
the floor. In an instant Rastus slyly
took position behind the visitor,
and his hands rapidly went
through" the latter's pockets with
the skill Of a professional follower Of
Fagin. But he sson discovered that
the visitors pockets contained only
such articles as knife, coins and bills
absolutely useless and without
value to a hungry coon.
Rastus has a fine taste" for art.
Indeed, IL has gone so far at times as
to result in his "devouring' prints
left about in positions of insecurity.
Probably there never was a coon OF
more fastidious habits. In the little
court where Rastus suns himself
when the print shop is not inviting
he has a lafge tub Of water. When
visitor gives him a biscuit, Rastus
invariably goes to the tub and care
fully douses the food before eating IT,.
His chief delight after that is 20 run
quickly and wipe his paws on the un-
suspecting ones cufrs.-N. y. Times.

and eggs or the young are the imme-
date object of birds solicitude. In
winter we do not expect to witness
such instances of courage on the part
of the smaller of our birds. In fact,
sparrows flee when a sparrow-hawk
appears. But recently / saw golden
crown kinglet question the right Of
an Acadian owl to take his ease in
an evergreen. Never was there a
more inoffensive bird than this little
owl at the time. II was cuddled up
in heap and half asleep. But the
kinglet found the bird. and imme-
diately set up n shout, and darted
into the tree, swapping its beak, and,
/ think, twitched the OWLS feathers.
At any rate there was no more sleep
for the bird in the tree. But 1t was
not moved TO vacate at the mere
buster of a little kinglet. 1t sat still,
slowly opening its beak now and
then, and moved its head TO and fro.
This was kept up until the sharp
chirping of the kinglet attracted
other birds, and n more serious at
tack was made. The owl then took
fight, and while the rejoicing was
general, not one of the sparrows,
nuthatches and chickadees made
more clatter, for a brief moment,
than the kinglet. There was Sc
que1 to the incident. The little bird
that started the affair did too much.
It was overcome by excess Of exer-
ton, and was so limp and listless
when i saw IL last IL seemed TO me IL
was thinking whether IL had not
made a goose of itself. 1t is possible
that some of the little birds, like
some small children, never take time
to consider If the gain derived is
worth the effort IL calls for.
