I have had boys stand in front of a hyena cage with a curry-comb and brush all day. trying- to get on good terms with the hyenas, and occasionally the hyenas would forget to snarl, and the boy would think the animals were beginning to weaken, and the boy would worK up closer to the cage, and say: "Pretty pussy." and hold out his hand and say: "Good fellow." Then the whole cageful of hyenas would make a rush for him. howling, snap-nlng and scratching with their bristles up.

and the boy Mould fall backwards over a sacred cow. About this time I would come along and ask the boy If he had got the hyenas curried, 'cause If had; I wanted him to curry the grave rotobersthe jackals.

Pa has an awful tifh in the hospital, 'cause twice a day the doctors strip him and pull a mess of cactus thorns out of him. and he yells and don't talk very pious. The doctor told me I must try and think of something to divert pa's mind from his EufTerlng. So I got some telegraph blanks and envelopes, and I have written messages from the show managers, twice a day.

The charter authorized the corporation to procure lands by purchase or agency to supply rame to desirable immigrants from foreign countries or other States, to employ a representative in foreign countries for the purpose of securing farm settlers to take the place of those farmers, tenants and laborers in the Piedmont section who have gone to the factories.

The last one broke pa all up. The message said: "Many farmers from Atchison are going to come with us to Kansas City to confer with you on an old matter of business." Pa jumped like a box car off the track, and wanted the doctors to send htm to a hospital at St.

Well, I always gave such boys a job watering the camels, and after they had carried water from daylight till dark, and had seen It disappear down a came! and the camels grumbling because they didn't bring water faster, the boys would ask me how long It took to till un a camel, anyway. I would tell them that If they kept right at work, the came's ousrht to be filled up full along In the fall. The boys would reluctantly resign. Our camels have been the making of hundreds of boys by their tank-like capacity to hold 'water.

One boy at Richmond. got it on me by getting a section of fire hose and hitching It to a hydrant, and letting the water run into a -trough at the samel stand in the menagerie, and before 1 knew it the camels had filled up until they were Kwelled four times as birr as they ought In be.
