STARVING KITTEN IS
ADOPTED BY CUR DOG
Herself Rescued from the Street,
Nellie Takes Little Founding
Into Her Happy and
Healthy Family .,...,....

NEW YORK, July ALMOST every
body in Arverne, L. l., is interested IN
yellow dog that was rescued from
starvation by an expressman, and that
has now adopted into her family of
puppies little kitten which was
found i'll in the street. The kitten
sleeps with the puppies, plays with
them and is cared for by their mother,
who watches over the founding as
tenderly as If it were her own Off
spring.
The dog was found in the street by
a driver for Nicholas McKenna, an ex-
pressman of Arverne. He took her to
the express barn, intending to turn
her over to the Society for the Preven-
ton of Cruelty of Animals. Before he
could notify the society the yellow dog
had introduced a family of puppies
into thu scheme OF things. The driver
died and McKenna assumed charge of
the dog and her little family.
One Of McKenna's children found a
kitten starving. She carried 1t home
and placed it near Nellie's bed. The
dog turned from her puppies and re-
garded the stranger curiously. Then
she reached over lazily and, placing a
paw about the neck of the kitten,
Rugged 1t. Since that act of adoption
the mother dog and the stray kitten
have been inseparable. The dog has
nursed the kitten just as she has
nursed her own puppies. When the
kitten was first placed in Nellie's bed
1t was suffering so much from hunger
it could hardly stand, but now 1t has
grown fat and happy.
Whenever one of McKenna's children
takes the kitten for romp the eyes of
the dog follow 1t affectionately, and
when the kitten Is returned the mon
grel banks expressions of gladness.
Nellie's puppies, which at first were
inclined to regard the adoption of the
kitten as extraordinary and to keep
aloof from It, have since patterned
their conduct after that of their
mother. They have taken turns play
ing with the kitten, which has recipro-
Gated their affection and has taught
them various tricks that are played
with a ball of yarn.
Although the kittne has good time
with the puppies 1t reserves most of its
affection for Nellie. 1t seems to know
Nellie saved It's life, and sometimes
when the puppies have gone some dis
tance from their mother to play, the
kitten is seen lying contentedly be-
tween the front paws of the mother
dog.

pleted by the Los Angeles Investment
company, upon the tract, at 1923
Gramercy place, for Mrs. Bessie Elder
Rodgers. This is a good illustration Of
another class of fine homes the COM
pany is building. The third view is of
a seven-room residence recently built
at 5OO5 Gramercy place for Mrs. Jane
Berry. In the building Of these homes
in the College tract one of the chief
aims of the Los Angeles Investment
company has been to have no two
buildings of the same design on the
same street, thus affording a generous
variety of architecture and giving tone
to each Individual dwelling.
Reports show that an exceptionally
heavy summer demand for College
tract homes prevails and work Is being
pushed in order to meet the additional
demand of next fall and winter.
