Druard was a trainer of lotig expe-
rh-nce, and he kue.v that,this lien was
good-tempered. So he decided at <'itce
that Jhe best thing to do was some-
how or other to tie the animal up. For
the rest he mum share the place with
the Hon until the next station, and
make the best, of his awkward situa-
tion. „
Fortunately, mi trouble broke out
between the lion and' the other ani-
mals. Had anything of that sort oc-
curred; the man would never have
lived to tell the talc*. Druard quietly
untied a sash that ho wore round Ms
body and p'-need It round the lion's
neck. Then groping his way through
the (lari an ! jolting van he .succeeded
in fastening the other end of the sash
(n lb" handle <>f the door. - At tiie next
station he : <*tnded the alarm, and
when lights ? ere brought led the lion:
back to its i..ge.-—Youth’s Companion.
