They Wanted Blood.

While a fair was being held re
Gently in a small town in Belgium
the owner of a menagerie announced
that one of the villagers, who was
known to possess great courage,
would enter that evening a cage con-
tanning two lions and remain there
Is minutes.
When this was nOised abroad every
one determined to witness the novel
sight, and as a result there were
several hundred persons in front of
the lions cage when the perform
ance began.
At a signal from the owner the
courageous villager entered the cage
and stood watching the lions. They,
however, took not the slightest no
tice of him, and after Is minutes had
expired he left the cage.
AS he did so a storm of Kisses
greeted him and the next moment
such an uproar arose that the owner
summoned the police and the enter
tainment came to an end.
The fact was the people expected
that the lions would attack the vii
lager and they were disappointed be-
cause no blood had been shed.-Stray
Stories.

THE DOG UNDER THE WAGON.

"Come, wife," said good old Farmer
Gray,
Tut on your things, it's market day
And Well be off to the nearest town,
There and back ere the sun goes down.
Spot? No. we'll leave old Spot behind"
But Spot he parked, and Spot he whined,
And soon made up his doggish mind
To follow under the wagon.
Away they went at a good round pace,
And joy came into the farmers face;
Poor Spot" said he, did want to come,
But I'm awful glad he's left at home;
He'll guard the barn, and guard the cot,
AND keep the cattle out Of the lott
m not so sure of that" thought Spot,
The big dog under the wagon.
The farmer all his produce sold,
And got his pay in yellow gold,
Then started homeward after dark,
Home through the lonely forest Hart!
A robber springs from behind a tree
Your money or else your life save he;
The moon was up, but he didn't see
The big dog under the wagon.
SPOT neer parked and Spot ne'er whined,
But quickly caught the thief behind;
He dragged him down in the mire and
dirt,
And tore his coat and tore his shirt,
Then held him fast on the miry ground;
The robber uttered not a sound
While his hands and feet the farmer
bound,
And tumbled him into the wagon.
So Spot, he saved the farmers life,
The farmers money, the farmers wife;
And now the hero, grand and gay,
A silver collar he wears to-day;
Among his friends, among his foes,
And everywhere his master goes,
He follows on his horny toes,
The big dog under the wagon.
