Very Remarkable Cure Of DiarrhOea

TEACHING KITTENS TO FIGHT.
Old Cat Instructs It's Young in Mat
ters Pussy Should Know.

l thought, says writer in Forest
and Stream, that everyone knew
that cats teach their kittens all the
ways Of cat life, 1t was my first les
son in natural history. In my boy
hood days a fall confined me to the
house. AT the foot Of my trundle bed.
a litter Of kittens in a basket afforded
me amusement. ] noticed the thin
voice that gradually developed into
the stronge new Of the old cat, and |
knew the mother was continually
giving lesson in catlanguage. When
the kittens were old enough to leave
the basket l was surprised to see the
old cat playing with them. Pussy, as
we called her, was staid old cat, and
! did not know that She had any play
in her. Isoon noticed that she played
with each kitten. She had no favor
ties. After awhile it dawned on me
that Pussy was teaching her kittens
how to fight. The arched back and
spiteful splitting were soon acquired
by the kittens, and they practiced to-
gethcr. The mother gradually
dropped out of the game when the
younger ones took it up. Pussy's
family was reduced to one kitten. AS
this kitten had no mates to practice
with, the old cat gave it lessons
again in self-defense and aggression.
She taught the kitten how to deal
with a mouse. She would drop a live
mouse near the kitten and then stalk
it when it attempted to escape. The
kitten looked on several days and
then tried to initiate the old cat. The
mouse nearly escaped. Pussy caught
it just in time, and let the kitten try
again. This time the kitten sue
ceeded in catching the mouse. The
old cat often brought in a mouse, but
it was long time before she would
allow the kitten to deal with it alone.
When thekitten's education was com
pleted, Pussy gave it to understand
that it must strike out for itself.
When the kitten persisted in follow
ing its mother, crying for its natural
food, the old cat would turn and box
its ears soundly. Very like a human
mother when she boxes the ears of
the child for overteasing.

The Life Experience of a Useless
Character Depicted.
Man born Of woman is little per-
simmons and generally green, says
the Antwerp Canada Bee. His life
might be divided into four parts. As
he starts his stomach is full of pains,
blackberry balsam and paregoric, and
he winds up the first period by steal
ing green apples and fishing on Sun
day. The second term, commencing
at Is, rapidly passes into the smart
Aleck fever and he learns to wear
standing collars, smoke cigarettes,
call his father old man, and go with
the girls. AT 21 he has bankrupted
his father, and blown in every cent
of his own, he finds woman who is
fool enough to marry him, and she
takes in washing until she is called
away. The last period he lives
around with his children, tells the big
things he did when he was a boy, and
finally goes under, making a mo-
mentary bubble on the sea of human
ity, then is forgotten.

Young Kermit Roosevelt.

taken, a story which has never ap-

Off at boarding school, there were
enough beds to 90 around, but none
to spare. Well, last winter the presi-

voy Of great state and many years,
and invited him to the white house
over Sunday. He was put in Ethel's
room, and Ethel, when she came
back from school Saturday, went up
to sleep with Alice, butunfortunately
Kermit did not know of this arrange
ment. So when early morning came,
mindful of his strenuous inheritance,
he crept to Ethel's room with a pitch
er of water and softly opening the
door, without awakening the slum-
bering ambassador, he dashed for
ward and threw the icywater over the
bed with the shout: Get up, you

when a gray head was lifted from the
pillows. dripping and alarmed, the
astonishment was mutual, and the
