In the Berlin zoo a mouse was put in
the cage of a lion to test whether. as
the old stories assert. there was a nat
ural affection between them. The ex-
pertinent was rather astonishing.
The lion saw the mouse before he
was fairly through the bars and vas
after him instantly. Away went the
little fellow. ~squeaking in fright. When
he had gone a few yards the lion head
ed him Off. and this was repeated until
the mouse stood still.

Self Possession.

Here's to the man who holds his peace
When the provocation's strong,
Who shuts his mouth and keeps 1t shut
When n word would set him wrong,
Who grips his temper firm and fast,
Nor loses his self control
Though he's tempted sore to vent his
wrath
And the silence sears his souli
Here's to the man who holds his tongue
When you'd like to make him swear,
Who listens to all your singing words
With a cool, provoking air;
Who keeps his grip on his rising wrath
When his temper's really bad,
Whose self restraint you can't disturb!
And doesn't he make you mad?
