laugh. The animal may be taught to
bow by tapping him on the back with
whip. He bends his head in trying TO
avoid the annoyance. The trainer
ceases the tapping, caresses him, then
resumes 1t till he repeats the bow. He
is again caressed and presented with
carrot, or something Of which he is par
ticularly fond. At last 1t comes about
that he bows upon any movement OF
the whip toward his back. To teach
horse to say mo" pin is fastened to
the butt OF the whip. A slight scratch
is given to the horses withars, about
where the collar would be, At this he
shakes his head; and soon learns to
shake 1t whenever he sees the butt OF
the whip coming near his wlthers. The
trainer teaches the animal TO kiss by
feeding him with apples from his
mouth, gradually lessening the size OF
the apples until the horse does the
trick without any Or he puts salt, OF
which horses are very fond, on his
cheek, and the animal naturally Hicks 1t
off. He is taught to laugh by gently
forcing the butt Of the whip In at the
side OF his mouth, then pricing his
mouth open with It. Caresses and car
rots follow, until at last the slightest
motion OF the butt toward his mouth
makes him open 1t. He does not really
laugh; he grins.
