yearns passionately for its freedom
and a heart that longs to be loved
and understood. Throughout the play
these warnings and passions alter

voice is often full of suppressed and

only once in ten years said he could

after he had Travelled about town for
several days he saw through it. 1t was
because 80 per cent Of the furriers In

an advertising sign. Why the other an
finals in the zoo should be so discrimi-

little. One day he asked a furrier
about it.

than anything else" said the furrier.
"Of all the animals in New York !

time than those that stand outside fur
riers' stores winter and summer and
try to drum up trade for their employ
ers. 1t doesn't make any difference
what kind Of weather comes along,
whether it blows hot or cold, those fel-
lows have to stand at their post and
swelter or freeze, as the case may be.
Naturally all those changes are pretty
hard on their hide, and none but bears
can stand the strain. Some furriers
have tried the fox, the lynx and other
animals now and then at venture,
but they have mostly come back to the
bear as the most satisfactory Of the lot.
They cost more too. A good stuffed
bear comes as high as SIS, but If he is
treated we'll he will last for twenty
five years, so that brings him down to
a comparatively low price after all."-
