Queen Isabel, a wveautiful black “Minorca, hails from Delaware, Ohio. That she carries biue blood in her veins is indicated by her beautitul plumage, her dainty and graceful ‘carriage, her rare intelligence and ther human eye. I say human eye because instead of the ordinary little round beady expressionless eye, so comnion '(‘hi(‘k(-ns, she has a largze oblong black eye that fairly dances and sparkles when she is pleased. She knows her name and always responds with a knowing look when ad- dressed.

She the same way that day and the next. This convinced me that it was not an accidental oc- currence but the result of her reas- oning. Another day I picked her up and took her out, shut the door, placed her on the ground and said to her: “Now, Isabel, how are you going to get back to your chicks?” When she saw that I wouldn’t let her in the door, she took a quick thought, made a bee line for the interior of the barn, jumped up on a high box, then flew clean across the barn a distance of fifteen feet, landed on the ledge of the inner wall of the barn overlooking the stall in which her chicks were confined, clucked to the little fellows and then flew down to them. T never approach Queen Isabel without addressing her and telling her how beautiful she is and I be- lieve she understands me and appre- ciates my affection for her. She has a kind disposition and many a time I have seen her picking the fleas from the heads of other chickens and then holding her head down for a like favor from them.
