Peculiar Pets.

An English major with a penchant
for entomology asserts that the hor-
net Is "a gentle. inoffensive creature,
very suitable for a pet" This re-
minds one of an incident in the life Of
the late Lord Avebury. Travelling one
day on railway train with a pet
wasp In his pocket, he hurriedly
thrust his hand into his pocket to get
his ticket, and the wasp stung him. He
did not blame the wasp, however. as
his hurried action had frightened the
creature. Wasps have frequently be-
come pets, but the major is said to
be the first to turn the hornet into
one.
