DoGs-THElR GREAT AFFECTION FOR
MAN,-When the theory of selection has
done It's worst, | sill cling to the belief
that the relation between dog and man
was as much foreseen and intended rs
that between sun and planet. Man has
succeeded in demonstrating several oher
animals, but where else has he found This
spirit of unconqucrable filellyp 1t has
not been developed by kind treatment; it
has not even been sought for in itself or
made an aim in breeding. Ladies make
pets OF their dogs; but all the shepherds
see around me pay them in kicks AM ours
rs and starvation What does the obscure
member Of pack of foxhounds know of
ms masters lovrP As much us Prussian
private in the rillo-pit knew of the tender
heart OF Moltke have seen great deal
OF the life of the French peasantry; but
never to this day have | seen peasant
carcss bis dog otherwise than with stick
or wooden shoe. There is well known
picture, by Drcamps, called "Ihe Ken
mel, which represents II huntsman visit
ing his hounds, and he is lashing with
ponderouS whip. Thousands of dogs
whole generations Of them have known
man in no other character than that Of
merciless commandcrpunishing the Slight
est error without pity, yet bestowing no
reward. There are countries where the
dogs are never fed, where they are left TO
pick up Il bare existence amongst the viii
est refuse and where they walk like gaunt
images of ftmine-livng skelclons,-
gnawing dry sticks in the wintry moon
light, doing nature S srnycnger work like
ras. Yet in every one of these miserable
creatures beats the noble canine heart
hat heart whose depths of devotion have
never yet been sounded to the bo tom;
that heart which forgets all our cruelty,
but not the smallest evidence of our kind
ness If these poor animals had not been
made to love us, what excellent reasons
they would have had for hating u-! Their
love has not been developed by care and
culture, like the nouriohng ears of wheat;
but it ases like the warm, natural springs
where man has done nothing either to OBJ
tain them or deserve them. -Humert0R.

MONEY IN THE POCKET. 1t is II good
thing to have unlimited credit, but b, tier
still 10 have ready money on hand for
emergencies. Baron Rothschild learned
this lesson, one day, when he CHANGED to
ride in II public conveyance, and found out
that he had mot Il red " in his pocket.
The driver was furious, and demanded his
pay. Rulhsrhild told him his name, and
gave biln his card.
- never heard Of you, and never want
to again, but | want my pay, and must
have it
And he looked down threateningly. The
money king was in haste. lie had only
III order for IL million, and ttfrred the driy-
er coupon Of fifty thousand francs to
change" " The driver stared, the passen
gers laughed, and just then IN acqualnt-
ance came up, from whom he borrowed
SIX sous, and paid the angry Jehu. Ii it
is inconvenienL Tor even RoLhschil to be
without money IN his pocket. you may bo
sure it will be ev,n Ii more so for you.
The world never respects state Of
imptcuniosity." 1t is most uncom ort-
able slate to be in. If you have an income
of any Sort, try not to spend every cent.
Have Il few dollars always about you tor
emergencies that will be always happen
ing. Ii You gather it up It's tile children
do their pennies, one at IL time, you will
keep your stock good. When you must
break your last dollar bill, repntce it as
soon aS you can. 1t adds To your comfort
more Than You can ever guess to leel that
there is II snug lItte sum that you can
uraw iron in case Of urgent need. Phi
1t tsOphy, Religion, OF poetry, to the cOnIra-
ry, tn, TT Is no use i'll being pennle,s. By
common pru enc,, most people of indus
trlous habits can keep little ahead for II
RAINY day.

An EERING EUT REpENrANr JUDGE.--
A certain lawyer in Lewis county, Ky,
was appointed Judge Of the criminal court,
being much younger man than ever be-
fore held the Office. He was II brilliant,
honorable fellow and sonnd urist,
thoroughly competent for his Office except
that he drank hard. The other day, in
opening court, he WAS SO mnch under the
influence of liqnor as TO be unable to tram
sact business. The next day being sober,
he came into court and said: Gentle
mcn and fellow citizens: appear before
you to say am victim TO IL vice which
has disgruced me before you and my coun,
try. As entered this court room | heard
some one say, there goes pretty timber
to make criminal Judge of. ! felt that
remark us steel through my heart for it
is lust. ! am unworthy of the high honor
and trust yon have conferred upon one so
Young, and return you the Office l have
lost, being unworthy of it. Pardon me,
friends and cOuntrymen, but You shall
bear this no longer. My judicial integrity
and official acts are bameless. Thank
God, | am no longer criminal judge oi
Lewis county, May heaven keep me in
NV afIlctionw There was not sound in
the crowded court as he spoke. No one
could look at him nud no! know that the
struggle through which he had passed be-
fore he could so humiliate himself wal
worse to bear than death. But there is ne
one whose heart would not warm to NJ
offender who is man enough to arknoW
ledge his error, and to go honestly "n(
humbly to work to regain his lost place
:. When the Judge entered the court, say
the local paper, the public feeling
aoainst him was that of anger and con
tempt; but when he went out, every maI
there was his friend, and ready to hole
ont a hclping hand to him"

How They Cor EVEN A prnc ical
Joke was played nearly thirty yeals ago at
cooking main in Havana by some sailors
belonging to an American man-of war
The sailors had been betting and losing
day after day at the cockpit, which was
the amusement they most affected, until
they were all left without cent. In thai
plight the sailors were when the man-of
war was ordered off to San Francisco A
number of months afterwards the vessel
returned to Havana, and the Jack rars had
| fully matured II scheme for vengeance,
Drawing all their pay, and borrowing all
the money they could in addition ut the first
shore leave they started for the cockpit,
carrying with them their gold and II BAG,
about which they preserved 81 eat deal
of mystery. Some of the ships officers
surmisng that something was in the lind
followed, but not even to them WAS the
sailors secret dvulged. Scarcely had
they reached the pit when an excited
Spanilrd sprang into the little arena
where battle had just ended. Under hls
left arm he carried magnificent game,
cock; in his right hand he tlourlslled Il bag
of doubloons, and he yelled forth ch.l-
lenge on behalI OF MS olfu against any
thing that wore feathers
No other challenger could have been

lance was promptly accepted the money
was staked' and the Americans shook then
champion out OF the mysterious Dag. a
nondtscrIpt creature II was WIN great
solid body, roughly covered wl'h chicken
feathers and tar, It's wings and ta'l clipped,
It's head broad and adorned with II Keel
curved beak, with long sharp talons at tht
ends OF its toes, instead OF gatt' upon lt'
legs. Despite its strange half-dlsguist
the officers recognized it at once as an
American eagle. But the Spaniards knew
nothing about it, and the one who lmc
made the match was furious, deeming him
self insuted by the pitting of such II mis-
erable- looking creature against his splen'
did fowl. The alca!de ordered, however
that the fight should take place according
to the terms OF the challenge, and the
senOr tossed his bird INTO the PIT. 1t was
