Little Adic Aclf, a flaxcn-haircd, seven-year-old Cincinnati girl, Las a pet kitten that she carefully puts to bed every night in a closet. One morning recently, at about six o’clock, and while it was yet dark, she was awakened by her protege jumping on the coverlid. She arose and, taking it child-fashion under her left arm, started out of the room for the cat’s resting-place. As she stepped noiselessly into the hall she came suddenly upon a roughly-dressed burglar, to whom she immediately put the question, “ What do you want, man ?” The stranger startled at the apparition, turned and incontinently tied down stairs, followed as far as the head of the flight by the little innocent, who stood there in bare feet with cat in arm, and gazed in wonderment at the individual as he went down the steps, four at a time, and vanished out of the front door.
