For example, the other day I was trying to teach a dog to jump over chair. He did it sev- eral times, and knew very well what I wanted, but, somehow, he thought he would be little stubborn, and could not do 8 thing with him. Finally, l took another dog, that knew the trick, and had him do it several times in the other dogs presence. After he had done it as I desired caressed and re- warded him with an unusually large piece of meat. 1 refused to notice the first dog, but presently he began to try to attract my attention. With out word from me he began to caper around the room and go through some of his tricks, and finally, with a little bark, as if to make certain I knew what he was about to do, leaped over l the chair"

A Housing Fish.

An enormous fish, about 12 feet in length and weighing upward of 1900 kilogrammes, was found by some fisher men at Brusc, on the French coast, en- tangled in some nets. The animal was dead, but, being still considered fit for human food, it was taken to the shore, the operation lasting fully eight hours. When opened, the people who had crowded to ti e beach to see it were amazed at the sight of part of a mans body and legs, the feet only being missing, lying in the stomach of the monster. On examination it was found that the man must have been drowned some time before. The re- mains were taken to the cemetery fol burial, but the fishermen, having cut up the fish, sent it on to Toulon, where it was sold in the market.

About Whales.

A sight of these huge, inoffensive animals is often to be had during an Atlantic voyage. They are too timid to approach near the steamer. A pe- culiarity about these wonderful creat- ures is the tail, which is not vertical, as in most fishes, but level, by which they are able to reach the surface of the water with greater facility for the purpose of respiration; and such is the strength that even the largest whales are able with it's assistance to force themselves entirely out of the water. The tail is their only instrument of protection. With one stroke of it they will send 8 large boat with its crew in the air and shatter the wood into thousand pieces. Sometimes the animal will take perpendicular posi- ton in the water, with the head down. wards and rearing the tail on high beat the waves with fearful violence. On these occasions the sea foams for a wide space around. This performance is called by the sailors "lob tailing." A whales head is about one-third of it's body, and it's tongue is soft, thick mass which was formerly considered great delicacy of the table, and a right of royalty. Their blood is red and warm like 8 mans, and the female suckle their young. A whale has no external ear. Their sense of hearing is imperfect. When the skin is re- moved small opening is perceived for the admission of sound. By quick perception of all movements made on the water it discovers danger at great distance. The eyes are small, but the sense of seeing is acute.
 A whale does not attain full growth under 25 years, and is said to reach 8 very great age. They live in families rather than herds and are of kindly nature, with the instinct of family affection very strongly developed. Whales have no teeth, instead of which whalebones grow down out of their upper jaw.-Ocean.
