A young beaver In Regent's Park gardens, London, was once placed at Work upon a tree 12 feet long ahd 2 feet 6 Inches thick just as tbe town blocks sounded the hour of noon. The heaver began by barking the tree a foot above tbe ground. That done he attacked the wood. He worked hard, alternating his labor with dips In his bathing pond. He bathed and labored alternately until 4 O'clock in the afternoon, when he ate his supper ot -bread and carrots and paddled about In his pond until half-past 6 o'clock. Ten minutes later, when Only one Inch of the tree’s diameter remained intact, he bore upon his work -and the tree fell. Before it fell the beaver ran Os men run vhen they have fired a blast Then as the tree lay on the ground he portioned it out mentally and again began to gnaw. He worked at intervals all night, cut. the log into three parts, rolled two of the portions into the water and reserved the other third for his permanent, shelter. The work done, he took a bath.—-Harper’s Weekly. * Saif, whehe tlul non get that- CiKlItCNT?
