THE ART OF TRAINING ANIMALS. 



There was at one time in the Jardin des Plantes, Paris, a 

 lioness which permitted a dog to live in her den, and to which 

 she became strongly attached. The dog was equally fond cf 



her, gamboling with and caressing her in the highest possijjlo 

 spirit. The lioness was most attentive to all his wants, and 

 when the keeper let the little creature out for exercise she seem- 

 ed exceedingly unhappy till he returned.
