At Osnge City Mrs C A Htodnrd
wim cleaning up her garret when by
Homo menus the family cat got into an
old trunk filled with clothing ami was
shut in light and fust Just 20 days
later Mrs Slcdiird was in the guiriit
again and heard the cats feeble cry
from the trunk When the lid was lift
ed tho cat hud just Htrength enough to
climb out It hud torn tho clothing in
tho trunk all to pieces in its clawing
and hud gnawed the sides nearly
through in t evorul places But perhaps
tho most singular circumstance was
found in the manner in which the cat
took euro of itself after securing liberty
Mrs Htodnrd set before it a big dish of
milk and a big dish of water It would
lup a little of each mid then lie down
for a few minutes when again it would
partake npariugly of tho milk and wa
ter and this proceding it continued
through tho whole afternoon If that
cat hud been a human doubtless it
would liuvo swallowed all that was
placed before it ut one gulp Kunsuii
