TRADES BOY FOR ROOSTER.
An Unusual Deal Between Two Penn
SyIVania Families.

A Wilkesbarre, Penn, dispatch
says the price of roosters hasn't gone
up in the Quaker Valley, but they
do say that youngsters will come
dearer now.
The Guidino family has just COM
pleted a trade with Hiram Krall, a
childless farmer, and an old man,
whereby he gets one of its numerous
flock, a little curly-headed four-year-
old boy, in return for big rooster.
Krall and his wife had long want
ed a boy, and often had admired the
Guidino children. Thursday the
old man asked Guidino what he
wanted for the chubby lad.
Guidino said he guessed a roos-
ter would be about right. He left
his son with the Kralls, apparently
well satisfied with the deal.

Not by merely giving the alarm
did the brave animal effect the little
ones salvation. When the big dog
saw the screaming child enVeloped

his voice to that of the baby, and in
