Fiwiliy, when old in years and ho was driven forth and defeated, he had made a record In its way unparalleled throughout the an- nals of ancient warfnro, Tot In his old age he became ft fugitive, wandering from one country to the other an&flnding no rest, owing to the vindictive persecutions of the Romans, who were then all powerful. At last, discovering no spot on earth open to him as a refuge, .deserted by his former Mends, his country en- slaved and Ills once imperial native city In ruins, he gave way to despair imd »nded hid lu*o with poison. .

A writer of Samoa writes in an Inter, ostlng way of tho llaardB, little follows about two inches long, prettily colored in a light and darlt shade of brown. They can run up a window pano quite as easily as can the Hies on which they feed, \When alarmed, the lizards are.off like a flash of light and will take the most rookies* loaps. I havo seen them laud safe at the end of a twenty foot Jump. Xet when cornored they hnv* no hesitation In snapping off tho most of their tails. • \That was a maddening puzzle to niy small cat. The slgfht of a mo'o any- where Was an itotncdlato challenge to the kitten, tjho would Immediately start on the hunt, for tlio most part a fruitless chaso, for tho little llsmrd conld skulk off faster than two cats could piirsug^it^echen the kitten Old succeed In landing on tho lizard ther^ followed a scono of^ bewilderment.

'\ \The kitten ttpver know whether to catch tho Itmrd or tho tall, if tho mo'« moved, tho Icltlon went for It, but she always stopped short to keep on eye on tho wriggles of tho tall. As soon us Bho turned back to talto cure of tht* tnll the mo'o got In motion and had to iio looked after, Hundreds of times I hare watched tho dilemma, and the ending wan always tho same-tho Ho- ard got away and the kitten had to be content with tho bony tall.

Before ho could break nwny tho halter was around his neck and .buckled firmly. Parmer Perkins changed his tone. \Now you ugly little bruto, I've got youl [Jerk.] Blast your wicked hide!
