How a Beaver Can Work.

A young beaver in Regents park
gardens, London, was once placed at
work upon a tree twelve feet long and
two feet six inches thick just as the
town clocks sounded the hour Of noon.
The beaver began by barking the tree
a foot above the ground. That done,
he attacked the wood. He worked
hard, alternating his labor with dips
In his bathing pond. He bathed and
labored alternately until 4 o'clock in
the afternoon, when he ate his supper
Of bread and carrots and padded about
in his pond until half past 3 o'clock.
Ten minutes later, when only one inch
Of the trees diameter remained intact,
he bore upon his work, and the tree
fell. Before it fell the beaver ran as
men run when they have fred blast.
Then as the tree lay on the ground he
portioned it out mentally and again be-
gan to gnaw. He worked at intervals
all night, cut the log into three parts,
rolled two Of the portions into the wa
ter and reserved the other third for his
permanent shelter. The work done, he
took q bath.

gift Like the poet, the steeplejack is

the naturalist had the gift and would
have adorned the profession-the only
one into which men do not drift.
When on a visit to Rome, Waterton
determined to rival the feats Of the
Italian climbers who yearly scaled the
dome Of st. Peters and the pinnacles
of the castle Of st. Angelo, to tllumi-
nate their SUBMITS on the feast Of St.
Peter. Eighty men used to climb the
dome on two successive nights, and
the boldest completed the spectacle by
crowning the cross with a waving
torch Of fire. Each nights show was
seid, on the average, to cost mans
life. Waterton scaled the dome by
daylight and left his glove upon the
vane.-Los Angeles Times.
