ENCOURAGING EXAMPLE.
Some years ago we had two tabby eats, a tabby and a powerful tom, perfectly white all over, tine day I happened to be in the attic, and noticed them go out on the slates, when Tom jumped across the yard to the next roof. It appeared to me a splendid leap, considering the width of the yard and the height of the roof. When Tabby came to the edge ot the slates her courage failed, and she uttered a cry of distress, whereu]H>n Tom turned round and leaped back, and, giving a cheerful mew, as much as to say, ‘ Look how easily it can Ire done,' jumped across again, this time followed by Tabby, to my great delight.
