They are pets of a Mr. Kckert who

After a loug search he west a abort

turtles down a considerable depth

LIONS BRED IN CAPTIVITY

There is a current tradition that
Y.IU1 animals horn In oaptitity do not
attain the savngeness of those bred
in thetr nntlve jungle and that the
teeth ot such animals do not deielop
ns they do In the wild state. The su-
perintendent of the Zoo whose ex-
perience with wild animals has been
ill most lifelong sajs that he has not
found these assertions to bo true
sajs the Haltlmore Sun.
Hoheier Innocent and apparently
tame the cubs may appear lie sajs
thero Ik n time when they attain sav-
ngeness apparently from Instinct and
show all the characteristics of the
aulinais whose home has always been
the forest or the plain. As for the
development of teeth the superin-
tendent points for Illustration to full
grown lions which were born and
reared In captliity and may be seen
n)y day crackng bones of meat with
which they are fed with evidence of
possessing the most sound teeth pos-
sible. The only way In which wild animals
In eapthlty usually suffer with their
teeth Is that when they are fed they
grab at the moat whleh Is pushed
through the bars with a big Iron
fork nnd break a tooth on the fork
or they may In Jumping 'against the
Vrs injure a tooth and suffer after-
ward from its loss.
The little linns when baby cubs are
shy nt first then become ns playful
ns hlttens. For the first year of
their life usually they may be treated
ns domestic animals. At the age of
nbout 13 weeks the cubs are taken
from their mother hut In the mean-
time sho has taught thorn to eat
meat. At first the cubs suck a bono
or a Scrap of raw meat which the
mother tears off for them. Often
they may be seen gnawing upon n
bone which the mother Hon holds in
her Jaws and paws
When flrBt taken from their moth-
er the cubs are given finely chopped
meat the pieces being gradually
made larger until they are given
bones upon which they sharpen and
develop their teeth: In time the lions
can crush tho bones with case. From
IX to months of age the young
linns ore It Is said so cross aa to bo
nlmost unmanageable. At the ago of
18 months or two years the cubs are
taken lu hand by their trainer and
then having reached their growth
they are ready to be perfected In
their trioha and to be exhibited.
It is said by those familiar with
Hon taming and training that lions
which hnve been brought up as pots
arc the hardest to train for perform-
ances. They do not seem to take tho
training seriously and are not sot-tally
mastered as those which have

EXERCISE AND HEALTH.

liurllles
Hcgatlliwg the statement recently
attributed to a Chicago physician to
the ofTeet that physical exercise was
not only un necessary but detrimental
to health the New York Journal has
an editorial which Is well worth read-
ing. Tlio editor says:
"Question the men you know post
middle age as to their condition. Mnny
will tell you their trouble is kidney dis-
ease which is easily avoided destroys
great numbers especially among tho
prosperous among clerks confined by
long hours school teachers and others
who get Insufficient exercise.
"Men die of kidney disease becauso
tho kidneys are compelled to do tho
work to cany on tho processes of
elimination which really ought to bo
attended to by the pores In tho skin.
We want to remind you again In case
you are doubtful about tho Importance
of exercise of the part whleh the
pores of your skin play In your in-
terior economy.
"Thero are spread over tho surface
of your body it you arg a man ot aver-
age size about 7000000 pores. Knoh
of these is a quarter-inch deep and
the total 'length of the pores In your
skin would bo equal to about S3 times
the length of the Ilrooklyn bridge.
Thoso pores day and night eliminate
from your body lta poUoug and Im-
purities. If you don't take exercise
If you don't perspire and. keep the
porea open the work which those
porw should do is thrown niton tlip
kidneys. The kidneys cannot do tin
work. Your blood Is poisoned and
kidney disease comes along to claim
you. A keen student ot health re-
marked to this writer the other day
that lu winter there are many more
deaths from kidney disease than lu
summer. '
"This Is due of oourso to the fact
that in winter the porea of the man
who dooa not exercise are even more
clogged up than usual. Heat alone
opens thO pores in summer to some ex-
tent although not enough.
"We Inherit from our ancestors big
muscles nnd abundant animal tissues
accustomed to violent exorcise. We
may in time develop a roco of men
able to livo without physical move-
ment. Hut woe to the man who trios
iu his one generation to ohango the
physical hablta ot thousands of gen-
erations that )inceled him."

Naturalness ti. Artinelnlllr.
Naturalness is needed everywhere.
Artificiality pretentiousness strain-
ing after effeots by unnatural meth-
ods are sure to avail but little as
novelties and in the long run weaken
the influence of all who prnotloe
them. The men and women of local
or puhllo honor influanoe and fame
are and alwajs have been those who
have developed and used their gifts
naturally which means In accordance
with nature their own nature. Arti-
ficiality ami assumption are danger-
ously near hypocrisy. Kven in the
dramatic profession it is naturalness
that attracts and wins. Let a man
bo himself everywhere his best self
as fully as he can and he will be
justly rated by his fellows whether
his field of aetlon be a private or a
public one. A man may distinguish
himself In his naturalness if he is
capable of achieving distinction. Un!-
