DID NOT KILL A
Instead OF Death There Was a Birth
Of Kittens,

A Main street drug clerk was visit
ed this week by a man and his wife,
the latter much agitated over the err
rand. They asked for four ounces OF
chloroform with which to kill their cat.
AT least this vas the husbands state
ment; the wife was too busy shedding
tears to do more than cling sadly to
his arm. They were given a bottle Of
anesthetlc and departed, stopping EN-
route home to purchase a new wash
boiler at $2.65 In which to perform
the last rites on the cat.
According to data later made public.
puss vas put to sleep on a pillow in
the boiler, the bottle of liquid was emp
tied within and the cover slipped on.
In the morning preparations were made
for the burial. But when the boiler
cover was lifted, 10! instead Of one
cat there were five felines! The liquid
was only spirits of inter. given by mis-
take by the drug clerk. and puss had
become the mother Of four likely kit
tens. 1t Is rumored that a lease OF
life has been extended the family.
