THE LIoNN HIS OLD AGE.


When a young lion reaches the age
of two years he is able 10 down a
horse or an OK and so he continues
to grow and increase in strength till
he reaches his eighth year, when his
talons, teeth and name are perfect, and
he grows no more. For twenty years

and fangs show no signs of decay but

is no longer a match for full grown
buffalo he prowIs around the cattle
-kraaIs, and snatches lamb or kid,

his parents thirty years before. A

mighty lion grows lean and NANCY,
and crawls about from place to place.
