How to Train q Canary BIRD.

Did you ever try to tame a canary bird
and teach itsimple tricks, such as perch
ing on your finger or taking seed from
your palm 2 Ifyou possess q birdsuppose
you make the attempt. If you are very
gentle and patient and the bird is yonng
you will succeed. Golden Day gives the
following advice on the subject:
Place the cage on table near you; af-
ter. little conference with the bird in
.troduce q finger between the wire, near
the fayorite perch, holding it there
patiently, yourself occupied with book
or paper the while. Presently, as it
shows no disposition to harm him, he
cautiously goes up to examine it. Then
he pecks to sascertainit its quality; maybe

he may go farther and light on it. or he
may be several days getting thus familiar.
BE patient. Once this step is attained,
vary the progrsmmeby introducing the
finger in other spots. BE will soon
light on it at any point or angle. Then
try thesdoor, at first thrusting the finger
under it. Next time fasten it open.

When lie perches on it, drawShin forth

perch outside little, and SO on. In q
short time, you have but to open the cage
door, uplift a finger, and he is sure to fly
to it and he may thus be called to any
part of the room to rest on the familiar
perch. Most birds learn this familiarity
in q few days, yet there are those who
will be Two or four weeks about it.
