A Dog Story.

wounded in one of his legs, from
which the blood was flowing free

dog at once. entered the Office,
'limped to the doctor, and il. |.
most imploring attitude held up
the wounded limb. The man of
pills and bandages took pity on the
animal, and upon examining the
wound, found that an artery had
been cut. Carefully laying his
dogship on the floor, the doctor
proceeded to bandage the wound,
which he accomplished as skill.
fully as if his patient were a mem
Der of the human family, The
dog seemed grateful for the atten-
tion shown him, and after exhib-
iting his gratitude in an unmis-
taxable manner, he proceeded to
the door, and departed. What
seems most singular is that the
animal had never been at the Of
flee before, and that he was an en-
tire stranger to the physician,-
Instinct alone could have caused
him to visit the gentleman referred
to, in his hour of distress. AL

How CoFFEE is MADE IN BRAZIL.
For each cup of the size of our
tea-cup 70 be made, the Brazilians
measure a tablespoonful of ground
coffee parched to the colorof a ripe
chestnut. This is. placed in a
gauze bag within the coffee pot,
and boiling hot water is poured
upon it. There are no grounds in
the decoction; and it is So strong
that it always leaves a brown stain
upon the white china cup. The
Brazilians never put milk into
their coffee, as they think that
milk Injuries the properties of the
7decoction, and it is never drank
until the close of the meal. Usu-
ally tits never brought to the ta-
bic until everything else is re-
moved.
