A colossal monument to Percy

The entire design Is to be about -
feet high, and II IL to be attached To
a cliff facing the Sasa Magni IN which
he and later Byron lived, says The
New York sun,
The work Is being execuce ed by the
Italian sculptor Fontana The Key
note Is taken from Sheliey's tragedy
"Prumetheus Unbound II display

rock with the lightning which, llhe
Jupiter, he grasps In his hand, This IN
scription: TO Shelley from the World
Unbound"
Shelley's heart, snatched from his
funeral pyre by Trelawny, is buried
in tho Protestant cemetery at Rome
OF which he wrote lt might make
enc in love with death to think that
1t would make one in love with 50
sweet a place" But the character
OF the place and the surroundings
made It undesirable to locate any
great monument there, At Viaregglo.

Is, lS22-ten days after he was
drowned on his way from leghorn
To San Terenzo--and where IL was

monument and besides, the fiat coast
affords no opportunity for F'ontana's
design The shore Of the gulf OF
Spezzia and the neighborhood OF his
last abiding place We're therefore
chosen for this greatest tribute To his

Cannon Nest for Cat and Hen.

Bowdoinham cats are noted for
their sagacity, but ii remains for the
Intelligent feline owned by Mrs. Sam

climax
Our cat has taken strange place
10 rear her last kittens Mrs. Donnell
told the Journal Friday Her chill
dren were born in a hens nest and
ever since she has persisted in keep
ing them there, The queer part OF It
is the philosophical way in which the
hen seems to take the matter.
When she wants to lay an egg
she pecks at the kittens. who are too
small to resent it. and If the mother
is near she pushes them gently from
the nest. Just as soon as the hen
has laid her egg the cat grabs the kit
tens and puts them in the nest again
and It is no unusual thing for the
cat kittens. eggs and hen to be all
together in one glorious mixup. -
