his unusual scholar was to eat at the

as much as any member of the family.
In instances of this nature it would
bat it's eyes with great rapidity, and
its whole body would shake with
mirth until the rattles on it's tail cl2t-

The reptile took great fancy to Mr.,
Johnston's children, and the father

Another little trick the snake was
taught to perform was that of going

no dogs, and for this reason taught his
reptile pet to look after this chore
In performing this duty the snake

came in a very peculiar manner, but
it was also tragic. 1t was romping
