A Charming Little Pet.

A charming little foreign pet for the
house is the suricate. This pretty crea-
ture, which, if we remember rightly,
was among the number of Frank Buck
lands animal companions, is an active
and vivacious little fellow, some ten
inches long. with greenish brown fur,
large bright eyes, a short pointed nose
and dainty paws, which, like the SPUR
rel's or raccoon's, are used as hands, to
hold, to handle and to ask for more.
Eloquent in supplication, tenacious IN
retention, the suricate's paws are ex-
pressive, plaintive and wholly irresisti-
bic. The creature is made for a pet,
and is so affecrionate to its master that
it can undergo any degree Of spelling
without injury TO its temper.-London
