This was all carried into effect Androcles,
after having been all alone in the wilderness,
with the probability of being torn to pieces by
lions, was now before q multitude of people,
in the arena, looking forward to the same
dreadful death.
At length huge lion bounded out from the
place where it had been kept hungry for the
show.
He was in great rage, and in one or two
great leaps he advanced towards Androcles,
who was in the centre of the arena, with
short sword in his hand
But suddenly the lion stopped, regarded him
with a wistul look. and letting his tail droop,
crcpt quietly towards him, and licked and
caressed his feet.
Androcles, after short pause of great sur
pse, discovered that it was his old Numidian
friend, and Immediately renewed his acquain.
tance with him.
Their friendship was very surprising to the
excited beholders, who, upon hearing an ac-
count of the whole affair from Androcles,
prayed the Emperor to pardon him.
THE Emperor did so, and gave into his pos.
session the lion, who, through having been
once kindly treated, had saved his benefac.
tors life.
Androcles kept the lion and treated him
well in return for the food the faithful animal
had obtained for him in the desert and for
having saved his life.
Dion Cassius, the great historian, says that
lie himself saw Androcles leading the lion
through the streets of Rome tanj his word is
not to be doubted), the people gathering about
them and saying to one another; This is the
lion who was the mans host this is the man
who was the lions physician"

~ who was pro-consul Of Afric, or At
frica. He had been found guilty Of
fault for which his master was going to put
him to death, but he found an opportunity
to escape, and fled into the deserts of
Numidia.
As he was wandering among the barren
sands, and almost dead with heat and thirst
he saw cave in rock. Finding just at the
entrance stone to sit upon, which was shad
ed from the fierce heat of the sun, he rested
for some time
AT length, to his great surprise, huge
overgrown lion stood before him, and seeing
him, Immediately walked towards him.
Androcles gave himself up for hst; but the
hon, instead of treating HIM as he expected,
laid his right paw on his lap, and with low
moan OF pain licked his hand
Androces, after having recovered himself a
little from his fright, plucked up courage
enough to look at the paw which was laid
OH his lap, and observed u large thorn in it,
He Immediately pulled it out, and by squeeZ
ing it very gently made a great deal OF pols
onous blood and matter run out, which proba
bly, freed the lion from the great pain he
was in.
The lion again licked his hand, and with a
brighter look in his eyes lett him, soon re-
turning however with fawn he had just
killed
This he laid down al the feet of his bene
factor, and went off again in pursuit OF more
prey, not hmping now he did when andre
cles first saw him, but bounding along as if
his paw had never had anything the matter
with It.
Androces, after having subsistcd upon the
lawn and other food which the lion brought
him for several days at length got tired of
this trghttul solitude and savage companion
ship, expecting that at any moment the lion
might forget his act of kindness and devour
him. So he resolved to deliver himself into his
masters hands and suffer the worst effects of

was called Juno, though am of the opinion
that, out of respect to her intelligence Mi
nerva would have been more appropriate

Juno was the property and especial pet of
our executive officer, Lieutenant Il.
From the crew of the Manhattan she soon
learned many tricks and games, such as
jumping over ropes held above the deck and
playing leap-frog.
and was played thus: -Four or five of the
crew would give a back"-stoop in line
with each other, and about four feet apart; !;
then, at the word, Juno would leap over
them one by one. Sometimes she would
alight on the back of the last man in the
line, sit. down on her launches, and gravely
view the scene.
Her agility was surprising. In jumping
over ropes, she would spring from the deck
over rope held nearly as high as a mans
more than ten feet in length. Considering
the fact that she was only an ordinary hunt
ing dog, such jump was remarkable.

of it in this sense, because most of her tricks
were spontaneous and showed real reasoning

1t was the custom of Lieutenant H to
give Juno sweetcned coffee and milk in a
large cup, which was put on the floor, so as
to be convenient for her. One morning, at
ter she had drank her coffee she evidently
thought her allowance was short, or that it
would be well to hint that she wanted more:

Animal Barometers

HE tortoise is not an animal one
I'LL would naturally fix upon as likely TO
- be afraid of rain, but it is singu-
layy So Twentyfour hours or more before
rain falls the Galapagos tortoise makes for
some convenient shelter. On a bright, clear
morning, when not a cloud is to be seen,
the denizens of tortoise farm on the Afri-
can coast may be seen sometimes heading
for the nearest overhanging rocks.
When that happens the proprietor knows
that rain will come down during the day,
and as rule it comes down in torrents.
The sign never fails.
This presenstation, to coin word, which
exists in many birds and beasts, may be
explained partly from the increasing weight
of the atmosphere when rain is forming,
partly by habits of living, and partly from
the need Of moisture which is shared by
all.
The catbird gives warning Of an approach,

branches Of tree, uttering curious notes.
Other birds, including the familiar robin,
