Was II a Panther?

A note from Scott Sipes says
that Baltzer Sipes, son of Mr..
and Mrs. V. R. Sipes who live at
the tollgate on east side of Cove
mountain on the Mercersburg
pike, took three good hounds out
to hunt foxes last Monday. At
ter wandering about for a short
time in the neighborhood of
where the Hunter road intersects
the pike, the hounds let out sew
eral doleful howls and turned tail
for home. Very much surprised
at their actions, Baltzer follow
ed only soon to find that he
was being followed by some wild
animal that gave vent to fright
full screams which sounded very
much like a woman in distress.
Baltzer and the dogs beat it"
home, and he now feels sure that
the ''varmint" was a panther.

MAKES SMALLEST OF DOLLS
Mexican Maiden Has Become Famous
for the Dainty Quality Of Her
Handlwork.

This is the story Of Isabel Beiaun-
saran, maker Of the smallest dolls in
the world, who is the quainteSt fig
ure in Mexico's quaintest town,
Cuernavaca, as told by Russell Hast
ings Millward in a communication to
the National Geographic society at
Washington, D. c.
''This little girl is called Queen
of the Needle" writes Millward.
"The natives of the village will tell
you that no cleverer Mexican In
dian maiden has ever been known.
The diminutiye dolls she makes,
both in point Of construction and
design, are the most remarkable in
the world.
"The operation Of making con-
sists in forming a tiny framework
Of wire barely three-fourths Of an
inch in length and winding it with
silk thread. The clothing is cut ac'
cording to the character of the dol
and fitted carefully about the small
figure. With a needle that car
scarcely be held in the fingers and
the finest of silk threads various de-
signs are actually embroidered OIL
the clothing, and so cleverly is the
work executed that even through {
powerful magnifying glass the de
tails Of the design appear to be per
feet.
"What is undoubtedly an example
Of the tiniest and most marvellous
hair dressing known is then per
formed on each doll. Even to tn,
details of the Braids and ribbons tn,
work is completely carried out, TIL,
eyes, nose, mouth, hands and fee
are then formed and the doll is read,

Keep Hands Off.

1t will not be long until hens
will be set for early spring chick
ems. Many have wondered why
these peeps live for a week or
ten days and then many of them
droop and die. 1t has been told
by those whose business it is to
discover things, that in nine cas-
es out of ten, the chicks were ex-
posed to cold air for several Sec
onds before they dried off under
the hen. The owner did it
when she could not resist the
temptation to slip her hand un-
der the hen to see or feel how
many peeps Matched. The tenn
perature under the hen was 103
degrees, and the outside was 40.

Like a bullet from a gun, the 69
degrees difference in tempera-
ture struck the tender chick, and
ten days later, bowel trouble
killed it as a direct result of fool
ishness. Why does the hen that
steals her nest seldom lose her
brood? Because no one foolishly
disturbed her until Nature told
her it was safe for her babies to
expose themselves to a lower
temperature. Keep hands off.
