HOUSE FOB FELINES
Latest Luxury Is Boarding Place
for Stylish Cats.
Buffalo Woman Makes Specialty of
Caring for Handsome Persian
and Short-Haired Angoras
—A Beautiful Animal.
Buffalo, N. Y.—Greenhouses for eats
are the latest thing in winter quar- !
ters supplied by the mistress of the
»ats' boarding house on Hoyt street, i
who believes in furnishing her board
ers with a sun parlor as well as with(
^sleeping and eating apartments.
'.Heavy builder's paper and tar paper
line the rear wall and part of the
roof of this new winter runway, but I
the remainder is glass, secured from
a florist, who has retired from busi
ness. Thoso interested in improving
the coats of their prize Angoras,
should see these fourteen good-tem
pered cats frisking around in the al-!
most wintry sunshine, their fur grow
ing thicker and liner and glossier
every day.
Whenever the wind blows too nip
|Plngly, every cat retreats to the shel
ter of the house, which has been
freshly lined with builder's paper, and
has piles of straw to burrow in. Ev
ery cat in the establishment is a
itianusome rerstan except me iour
short-haired cats, who have traveled
from the ends of the earth, and who
will leave the boarding house to re
isume their (ravels shortly.
Although the Angoras are a lordly
[lot, and come to the boarding house
loaded down with prejudices about
what they should eat and how warm
;un atmosphere they should he allowed
to breathe, gradually the little lady
of the house discourages these views
until the kittens come to enjoy plain
food and blasts of fresh air. Just at
present she is working hard with a
small Angora and her two kittens.
They were very feeble on arrival,
their eyes closed with hard colds and
their bodies limp with weakness.
Heauty, the mother cat, has had abou^
$60 spent upon her for doctor bills,
and all three cats have to he fed
goats' milk from a medicine dropper.
The milk costs thirty cents per pint.
Although the three kittens have
been at the house only a month, they
have grown Immensely ,and have such
,'high spirits that the other Persians
are beginning to wonder if they have
not some low-bred, short-haired blood’
;in their furry bodies.
“Taking care of such a lot of valu
ables," said the woman of the house,
1 "is a great responsibility. A few
weeks ago one of my most distin
guished boarders undertook to walk
out alone, through a door which I
had left open Just for a minute. Well,
he didn't come back. I spent a lot
of money advertising, and did every
thing to find that cat. At last a
woman who sometimes works here
saw a cat which looked like Smoke
In a neighboring house, and we went
nfter him aud brought him home in
triumph."
One of the most beautiful cats in
the house is Cinders, whose velvety
coat shows all the colors of tbe less
brilliant leaves. When the air 1b not
too chilly, Cinders loves to squirm
among the leaves which fall from the
(tree* into the open runway, and to
dash out when another cat ambles by,
unconscious of his presence.

GERMAN HAS A TALKING DOG
Animal Asks for Cakes When Hungry
and Alarms Servant When It
Enters Kitchen.
Berlin.—The German public has
lately been regaled with tale* of the
increased accomplishments of Don. a
talking dog
Fov five .years Don, who is the prop
erty of Herr Ebers. a gamekeeper of
the royal hunting preserves of Kol
blt2-L>etxUnger, near Hamburg, has
been noted for hts powers of speech.
He began to learn at the age of 6
months, and now has a useful, If lim
ited, vocebulary.
When the puppy Don was standing
by hla master's side at dinner time
eae day Herr Ebers said, "You want
something, do you?” To every one's
amanement Don replied In a deep,
bat clear tone. "Haben, haben!”
(“Want, want!”)
The gamekeeper at once started to
develop the dog's talent In reply to
"What Is your name?” he learnt to
say "Don.” and to "WTiat’s the mat
ter?" he answers "Hunger. He came
to say "Kuchen" (cakes) with parti
cular distinctness When cakes are
in view he repeats. "Kutchen. haben,
haben!” any number of times and
If hts ple« is unanswered he adds
"Hunger!” with a long drawn empha
sis on the last syllable.
Those who hear the dog talk for
the first time are often half-frightened
so uncanny Is the impression. One
day lion wandered Into the kitchen of
a working woman who was slicing
sausages. He exclaimed, “Don—hun
ger want!" The housewife, after n
moment's stupefaction, dashed from
the room In a fright, leaving the sau
sages for lion.

Neglected wounds produce old sores and
these in time develop ulcers which eat away
the vitality.
Ballard’s
Snow Liniment
Is a Healing Remedy for AH Ailments of
the Flesh of Man and Oeast.
The speed with which this splendid liniment heals up a bad
wound or sore has surprised and pleased those who were accus
tomed to the slower and uncertain effect of less powerful reme
dies. It mendst the lacerated flesh so quickly that there is but
little time lost from work. In relieving rheumatic pains, neural
gia, sciatica, it lias done and is doing a wonderful work. Many
chronic victims of these diseases have found to their great satis
faction that it cures an attack in a fraction of the time required
by the ordinary treatment.
It is equally effective in the flesh ailments of animals. Owners
of blooded stock value it highly for two reasons: It heals sores
and wounds quickly, and leaves no disfiguring scars.
This remedy Is needed in every home. If its great power and
efficacy was generally known, no family would be without It.
Price 25c, 50c and SI.00 per Bottle.
