Taming Lion by Tobacco.
We have all heard the old wheeze of
taming a lion or tiger by steadily
keeping your eye fixed on him. Ac
cording to one of the keepers at Bos
toclc's, a more effective method Is a
clgur or cigarette.
"Nearly every wild beast that I ever
come across," said this official to the
writer the other day, "Is fond of tobac
co In soiuo shupc or form. I made
this discovery quite accidentally. Once,
when I was In America with this
show, one of the visitors, who wus
smoking a dsar, puffed some of the
smoke Into the lion's face as he lay
asleep in the cage. I expected to see
a reul riot, but instead of that the lion,
after giving a couple of sneezes, moved
quietly up to the bars and raised his
nose suiffingiy as if asking for a sec
one dose. I have made the experiment
on all sorts of wild animals since, and
I have found that most of them enjoy
thoroughly n big sniff of tobacco. We
had a bear here once that used to rub
his nose and back against the bars
of his cage, Just like a cat asking to be
stroked, whenever any one smoking a
cigar came near him. Antelopes and
wnu goats aren't satisfied with the
mere whlfT. If you give them a cigar
or cigarette they will swallow it enirer-
ly and, what Is more, seem to suffer
no bad effects from their meal." Lon
don Scraps.;,
Kerguison and tha Rhh;t.
Robert Fergusson, the poet, was first
mntncuiutcd nt St. Andrew's universi
ty In the session of 1704-S. It wa
the custom nt this time for each bursnr
to take his turn iu invoking "blessing"
nt the menls. The college table having
been surfeited with nn unbroken diet
of rabbits in various forms of cookery,
Fcrgusson, on being called to say
grace, repeated what are uow celebrat
ed lines:
For rabbits young- and for rabbits old.
For rabbits hot and for rabbit cold.
For rabbits tender and for rabbit tough
Our thank we render, for we'v bad
enough !
It may be added Fergusson was not
sent down, but the rabbits were rus
ticated." - ;.

These trails are made as wlda as or

Another work of the foresters is
that of camp ground making. For
merly the rule of selfishness was su
preme and the sheepman who got In
first destroyed the grass and shade
about the lakes and brooks at will.
So campers or travelers could find no
grass or places of comfort in which
to stop. This Is all being changed
and camping grounds being reserved
and brooks and lakea protected.
Cabins, too are being constructed
about the lakes and along the road
fo- the use of the rangers. In many
ways the forests are being improved
so as to make it easy and pleasure
able to traverse them.
