The turning around of dog before ly-I
ng down to sleep is a natural instinctive
labit derived from his originally wild
and most remarkably retained
n q domestic state. A wild dog makes
lis bed among long grass, and, to render
comfartable, he puts down his nose,
urns around several times, and so throws
own the grass in the space in which he
urns, then lies down, and goes comforta-
'ly to sleep. There are other analogous
instances of habit, through countless
generations. Thus, the common sheep in
state of nature seeks safety at night
rom beasts of prey upon the mountain
ops. The domcsticated sheep retains the
habit, although the necessity
or 1t no longer exists. All the morning
