Animals iii the`'Middl'e Ages. Our mediaeval ancestors kept a vast number of domestic pets for' their amusement,' birds, lap -dogs, and grey- hounds, especially; writes C. Edger Thomas iu the Animal World, London. Dogs were their• great companions, and- ladies- fed their "Male hound'ese daintily. Cats ,are not mentioned, or come across so often in pictures as are dogs, Bet this does not necessarily mean that eats were not liked. Among that wonderful, collection of Harietan manuorlpts in the Britisdt: Museum may be seen many lIluminatione of animals. In one lea dog with a rid- ing party;: another,' a deg -ia a dinner scene; end others show a lady with .a pet dog' in her arms, birds and dogs itf rooms, etc. One of the duties of the chamberlain of e. knight was to drive the "dogge and mete" out of my lord's' chamber when he had retired to rest, It .would seem that both, oats and dogs were allowed to be there in the 'daytime. Readers of Chaucer will remember that when the Friar visited the 'sick man, he found. a cat on the bench be- side him; while among the rules laid -down in an 0111 Book of Courtesy .,01 this ported, is one stating that goad manners forbid the etrolfing of a cat or dog while "sitting at meat in: the -hall, People also made pets of squir- rels;'and even monkeys! The training of animals for perforin - Ing has been:practised from the earli- est times. It was done in the "Middle Ages, and unfortunately it is still car. tied on. On `holidays, feast days, .etc„ strollins minstrels and showmen .were wont to exhibit dancing bears and. monkeys playing .en handbells, A, thirteenth cantnry writer, one Villard de I-ionnecourt, tells us that in his time the Icon -tamer was accustomed to eel! in the atysistauee of two dogs.. "When ize'would fain make the lion leo anything," we, read, "he commandeth, !rim to do it,. and if the lion murmur, then he beateth the doge; whereof the lion misdoebtetb bim sore, when he seeth the- dogs beaten; wherefore he refraineth his courage and :teeth that which bath been commanded," -It was very rough iuck on the poor dogs,! What happened if the lion was 'a self- ish lion aid oared little for another enlistees sufferings? Our old -scribe helps us a ,little: 'And if the lion be wrath, therefore will I speak, -no whit, for the would he obey neither for good nor evil 'usage," And presum- ably the soar dogs were 'thrashed 4n vain. The baiting of animals was an ex- ceedingly-cruelform of amusement which remained long in favor. • Fitz- stephen, writing in the twelfth cen- tury, says that bulls;. bears, boars and horses were'frdquently baited: Titles in the -Dominions. • Five years' ago Canada asked the British crown not to confer any more titles on Canadian citllene mid asked further that hereditary titles already conferred should' expire with the pre- sent holders.

An ordinary dinner fork and a tumb- ler are used. Everyone knows that it the finger tip is draws, with some force over the tines of the fork, the fork will give forth a ringing note—as a tuning fork will do. This should be done several times to prepare the spectators for the'- real mystery whieh Is to follow. A tumbler is placed in front of the trickster. Ffe=oauses the fork to ring by drawing his finger tips over the tines. Re pretends• to gather the sound in his hand. As the sound of the fork, becomes inaudible heethrows'this "handful of sound" at the -tumbler. Im- mediately the tumbler begins to iKng. The fact is that the tumbler only seems to ring. Much depends upon the manner in ' which the trickster acts the affair. Just as tho sound. of . the vibrating tines dies away, the trickster touches the handle of the fork to the table. The sound again becomes audible but the spectators believe that the sound comes from the tumbler.
