All BY Her Lonely,

81 get awfully hungry for meat
sometimes said the woman who has
embraced vegetarianism, still 1 find
that even the pangs of appetite have
compensations. For one thing. don't
have nearly so much company as
formerly. In the days when we sat
down to bountiful table, self-invited
guests dropped in for dinner on feast
days and fast days alike. Very often
they put me to no end of trouble.
Since we have accepted vegetarian doc
trines nobody will eat with us. even if
invited. Even on holidays they avoid
us. literally begged three people to
come to our house for Christmas din
ner. but all pleaded previous engage
ments. Under strict vegetable
regime get little lonesome at meal
time and more than little hungry,
but l thank goodness I don't have
nearly so much cooking to do"

among his constituents, and he had
it taken out after the carrier pigeon
messenger service idea got into his
fertile brain. Fifty pigeons at the
present time are doing the work of
letting him know when Bill jennings
youngest son, William, is down with
the mumps, or that measles have
broken out in the house of Seth
Bailey.
DR.. Lunt trained the birds In the
first place so that they would always
return to the Lunt cote, and then
served them out to his 40 or more
regular patrons. Now all he has to
do is to sit in his office and watch
the little opening just over the door,
When pigeon comes in he takes out
the little note from under its wing,
which tells him that there is suffer
Ing going on in some neighboring
home, and he is all ready for the call
in twinkling.
He has grown to know the birds,
too, even without the aid of numbers.
Here comes Tootsey from Sam Col
Inns place." he said the other night
to friend as a pigeon came In the
port of entry. Guess l will get right
down; little Polly has had bad
turn"
Should Dr. Lunt be away on a call
some one else in his home keeps a
watch out for the feathered messen-
gers. The birds have in several in
stances displayed rare intelligence.
nnn n,-
others at his home were engaged in
matters that took up their whole at
tention. One of the pigeons, enter
ing through the aperture over the Of
flee door, and seeing no one at the
doctors desk to greet 1t, hoped out
into the sitting room close at hand
and startled the members of the fam
lily by flying up and alighting on a
table, where it awaited the completion
of its mission.
Since the advent of the birds, too,
1t has been remarked that the boys
of the town have stopped throwing
stones at birds in general, particular
ly pigeons. Their parents have laid
down the law to them that they must
cease this practice, since some of the
messenger birds might be injured or
killed while fastening on flight
which might involve the saving of a
human life. More than that, one boy,
in the first stages of the experiment,
was caned by an irate parent who dis
covered him throwing stones at the
members of DR.. Lunt's sturdy flock.
These methods were adopted by
other residents of the town, SO that
the practice ceased, and members of
the society with the long name would
look upon it that Skowhegan boys
were perfect models of what all good
boys should be SO far as the stoning
Of birds is concerned.

A FAMOUS CANNON
BOSTON TRYING TO RECOVER
BUNKER HILL FIRING PIECE.
Captured by British Army In 1775
and Now In Possession of City
of Quebec-Attempt Made
to Purloin Relic.

Hartford, Conn.-There is more than
possibility now that the famous little
Bunker Hill cannon about which the
guide descants pleasantly to visitors
to the citadel in Quebec will soon be
welcomed by the Ancient and Honor
able Artillery of Boston and be placed
with its fellows In Bunker Hill monu-
ment.
1t isn't much of a cannon to look at,
with Its decaying wooden carriage and
its two split wooden wheels, as it
stands there in the Citadel on a plat
form surrounded by mortars, but
Americans always have wished they
could see 1t under other auspices. A
Hartford clergyman. Rev. DR.. I. F.
Stidham. chaplain of the Putnam Pha-
lanx, said once after the sergeant had
finished his story OF the capture of the
gun by the British; But, as l remem-
Der 1t. the hill itself was not taken"
Once or twice attempts have been
made to purloin the cannon, but no
one ever got 1t further than the gran
lite wall. After the last attempt, few
years ago, the garrison kept closer
watch on it. Indeed, 1t had been i'm
possible for any one to get a picture
of 1t until recently, when willard G.
Gompf of this city made an effort
which was crowned with success. At
the time of the Worlds Fair in Chi
cago a request was made for loan
of the gun. but the royal authorities
had their fears and refused it.
Negotiations are now afoot for an
exchange of it for some historical relic
in Massachusetts, the unusually cor
dial feelings between the two coun-
tries making 1t particularly favor
able time. 1t is felt that altogether
an occasion could be made which
would cement friendly relations while
delighting antiquarians, and which
would incidentally make visits by
Americans to the Quebec citadel cheer
full.
The cannon is simply but effectively
inscribed: Captured by the British
Army at Bunker Hill. June II, 1775."
Its previous history is a bit tangled.

cura Remedies Cured Him.

From the age OF three months until
fifteen years old. my son Owens life
was made intolerable by eczema in its
worst form. In spite of treatments the
disease gradually spread until nearly
every part OF his body was quite raw.
He used to tear himself dreadfully in
his sleep and the agony he went
through Is quite beyond words. The
regimental doctor pronounced the case
hopeless. We had him in hospitals
four times and he was pronounced one
of the worst cases ever admitted.
From each he was discharged as In
durable. We kept trying remedy
after remedy. but had gotten almost
past hoping for cure. Six months
ago We purchased a set of Cuticura
Remedies. The result was truly mar
velous and to-day he Is perfectly cured.
