ing to the observation of this office.

theless one. They were born In the
basement of the Blue Mountain
creamery building and though now
nearly a week old, are still living.
The cluster of cats face each other.
A growth on the belly of each kitten,
holding the perfectly formed animals
In position. Aside form this small
growth there la nothing different In

The animals hnve some difficulty In
