Have Iona and Short Lives.

SparrOws can live to be forty years
old. A horse does not live much more
than twenty-seven years. Cats get to
be about thirteen years old. The tor
toise is supposed to live to be between
300 and 400 years old. Some persons
say t0ads can live forever, but. OF
course. that has not been proved,
though certainly they live to an ex-
ceedingly great age. Both an eagle
and crow have been known to live
to be 100, but the wren lives only
about three years. An elephants life
time Is about 100 years. but he isn't
regarded as grown up until he Is about
twenty-five years old.
