TAMEs YOUNG WOLVES.
Swiss Trains Them to Play with
LIIn DOGS.


Can wolves be permanently domesti-
eated2 The question Is one on which
there is no conclusive evidence. Perhaps
the most that can be said is that the ex-
istenee of wolves tame in the second gen
Grafton is net on record, says the London
GIobe.
NJ. Mosch. a Swiss gentleman, living at
Tcafer. has. however, succeeded, or
thinks lie has succeeded, in solving the
problem By the simple process of getting
hold Of a cub scarcely three months old
and in bringing il Up as pet until il
viii not only follow him about the streets
and play with dogs, bat will let itself be
most Familiarity caressed Repeat this
through one or two generations, says NJ.
Mosch. and you have woves as dogs. In
those "oae or two generations" lies the
rub, and N, Moseh seems to forget that
even tigers have been kept tame 10 ma
turity.
II may be added that Button relates an
experience of his own which is not en-
courasing. He also brought up a young
wolf, which led a hlameless and even hap
py life in "a poultry shed Till 1t was
eighteen months Old and then in d single
night killed every fowl without eating
one. His conclusion is that though
amenahle 10 d0mesticity till about eight
cen months Old, their wild instincts then
reassert themselves irresistibiy.
