A Change That Business Revsrsss
Wrought In One Family.
A husband suddenly lost his position
and the family of wife and three chill
dren In q day found themselves trans
formed from having plenty to almost
nothing. Three months after he lost
bis position a friend called and was
amazed to find the family happier than
ever before-the children busy and
cheerful, the wife's eyes sparkling and
the husband working at one-third his
previous salary.
Zone might think you all enjoyed
your reverses," said the friend.
Really we do" said the wife. "Noth.
ing in the world could have happened
to bring us SO close together. Before,
the children were rapidly acquiring
their own interests, and several times
l felt that was not so close to them
as would like. When Georges re-
yersal came we decided not to deceive
the children and give them everything
as before, as was our first instructive
inclination. We took them frankly
into our confidence and told them what
had happened and what 1t would mean
to them. We dealt honestly with them,
and they felt 1t and appreciated 1t.
"And you see the result. They are
just thriving on the opportunities for
haalthfy,I conrifioa tha chonca to shora
in the family responsibilities, and as
family we are closer, healthier and
really happier than ever before Evi-
IDENTIFY we needed exactly what hap
pened, and we do not regret it the least
little bit."-Ladies' Home Journal.

TRAINING OF WILD ANIMALS
Essential That Wild Beasts Be Kept

The first principle that Is taught a
wild animal trainer, is: Never let
an animal know his power The

The very moment an animal realizes
bis power. his training is ut an end.
He grows insolent aud iu many in
stances seeks to wreak his vengeance
on the trainer for what he concludes
are past outrages. This fear is goue
and with the wild aUimal's knowledge

Many animals do, Of course. inflict
injuries upon the trainers fairly often.
but ii Ia an unwise trainer who ever
makes the slightest sign of pain or
annoyance. Trainers have been known
to give flick of the whip Eut tie
result is always the same. The animal

Whenever trainer gets fairly cor
neIed, the best defense against
charging lion or tiger is to strike the
animal on the nose. biting him from
under; but this is by no means au
easy thing to do, as the animal will
spring and dodge with degree of
skill that would do credit to a clever
rrize fighter. Meantime, however.
the trainer can be edRing into a posi-
tion that will give him an opportunity
