From Good Housekeeping.
 A lady who lives near me has a toad so well trained that it jumps upon her lap and then upon table near her in order to catch flies. Another lady has tree-toads as pets. They have the free dom of the house and go about hunting flies. Whenever they wish to go out on the porch they hop close to the door and trill. My friend opens the door and out they go. When they wish to return they approach the ooor and make the same noise to ask for admttance. They enjoy life indoors and always come back into the house of their own ac- cord They have a basin of sand for their beG and large pan of water for thelr oath tub They are very orderly arc clean. When they wish to sleep they go to their basin of sand, and when to wash they go to their pan of water for bath They hibernate in the house. burying themselves in the basin of sand and remaining in it during the winter.

The Bubble of Fame.

Fame does not assure happiness. A prominent man is the worlds target to be shot at. No matter what his motives and ambition may be, defamation and islander and misrepresentation never tire of haunting his tracks. The giants are the pygmy's natural objects for ridicule
