PIG AND GOOSE TRAINING.

At 1890 o'clock the band of fifty
pieces began to boom out rehearsal
of popular selections, and the arena
under the big tent took on a livelier
air with the different trainers putting
their animals through their PAGES.
The circus is always more or less in
rehearsal, and therein lies the safety
of the performers when the spectac-
ular and daring acts are accomplished
before audiences. So intent were we
upon the school that we did not see

pigs dashing around the arena with
all the flourish Of tally-ho sextet,
but we caught them on the second,

I know" he said. Patience and

WHERE KINDNESS WON.

Dick was a very little donkey to
have such will OF his own. You
wouldn't have thought, unless you
knew donkeys, that this small, brown
animal with the bright eyes and long
ears could be so stubborn, says the
Sunbeam. He stood there in the
road and refused to go one step
farther; neither would he turn his
head toward home.
30, dearl What bad Donkey"
exclaimed little Berthe in despair.
How shall we ever be able to make
him mover"
Her brother Lloyd, with the conf
dence OF eight years, ran to the side
of the road and brought back a
short stick, with which he industri-
ously switched the obstinate ANNALS
sides. Alasl the donkey bore 1t bet
ter than he did, and he soon stopped,
breathless.
After moments thought BERTHE.
as last resort, drew an apple from a
basket in the little cart, and held
1t up in front of Dicks nose. For a
single instant he shifted at the rosy
fruit, then moved forward obediently
and took 1t in his mouth.
"All aboard" cried Lloyd, and he
and his sister clambered upon the
seat.
And If you will believe it, whether
he had forgotten his late Ill temper,
or because the kindness of his good
little mistress had conquered him,
Dick set off at lively pace, still
munching the apple, and they had no
more trouble with him during the re-
mainder of the drive.-Home Herald.
