BEAR AND YOUNG BATHING. The life of the Beasts of Prey presents constant examples of the universality of maternal affection among 



mammals of all species. Bear mothers are very attentive to their young, and the picture shows a family of Bears which has its home in the deep forest so much 

 favored by these animals. A convenient spring is being utilized for the purpose of giving a bath to the little ones, which seem to enjoy it. The mother is a 

 typical specimen of the Brown Bear, with the clumsy appearing body and limbs, shaggy fur, elongated head and muzzle and high forehead belonging to 

 that species. (Lfrsus arctos.)
