"Oh, off having adventures, as I suppose you'd call them," answered the lion.
"Adventures!" exclaimed the jolly elephant. "Well, if that man hears about them he'll put you in a book."
"Oh, I guess not," said Nero, as he curled up in his new cage.
But I did, just the same, and here's the book. And so we come to the end of Nero's many adventures—at least for a time. But there are other animals to tell about.
In the circus was a striped tiger, of whom I have spoken. I think I will tell you about him. And so the next volume in this series will be called: "Tamba, the Tame Tiger: His Many Adventures."
And now we will leave Nero peacefully sleeping in his cage, and dreaming, perhaps, of the little girl and Blackie and of the tramp with the boiled ham.
