Mr. Clarke Hutchinson, of Waihi, relates a romarkable experience in regard to a small pup which he placed ;,omo value on, savs tho Auckland "Star." Whilst suckling its mother, it was rolled on, and badly crushed.- It had every appearance of- being dead, and after making a careful examination, Mr. Hutchinson buried the remains in
tho garden. . The noxt day he was digging near the spot, and unmindful of the exact locality, he unearthed- the supposed deceased puppy in a- spadeful of earth. To-his great amazement the animal shook itself clear. Mr. Hutchinson picked it up, brushed it. clean, and put it down, when it ran off to it* mother! Notwithstanding tho fact thai; it was buried for 36 hours,, and had received what apparently, looked like a fatal'wound, the wonderful canine made a complete recovery!
