AsEcDorE FOR CoLD Day The follow
ing capital anecdote is from the New York
| Spirit of the Times:
One Mr.. Patrick F. was ANNOYED exceed.
lngly by strange dog-as Coleridge says,
"harmless dog"-who invaded his domicil,
made distractions from his cellar, and was
very much in the way of Mrs. Patrick F in
the kitchen. On a cold winter night, the
wind cutting like knife, and the snow fro.
zen so to burn like carbonic acid gas fro.
zen, alter tn e dog had been turned out OF doors
no less than three times, and the last time re
quested to 60 to warmer place unmentiona.
be,-Patrick was awakened from a warm
and comfortable sleep by the noise of a "a.
Their expensive fracture of glass. The dog
was in the house again. Patrick waited up.
on him out, and both were absent some if-
teen minutes; so that Mrs. Patrick F., be:
coming surprised if not alarmed at such pro-
l"nged absence, arose also and went to the
window.
From her point of observation she saw, in
the clear moonlight her lord standing Sin
naturalibus," barring the shirt, and the wind
making free with that, as of course it would,
at the northeast corner of the house. The
dog seemed to be sustained on ''his last Iegs,'
his fore legs forming two sides of an acute
triangle.
'What can you be a doing there, Patrick ~
There was such ehat'ering of teeth that
the answer for some time was somewh unins
tellig be-at last it came:
"fm t-t-try-tryrng TO Erase The dtrGah 6aste to
i-d-death!
The idea of holding dog by the ears, ex-
posed to a sharp northeast wind with the a.
vowed intention of freezing said dog to death,
struck as ludcrous in the extreme.
