The shepherd dog naturally loves the
care Of stock, especially OF sheep, and
their natural instinct, heightened by
training, makes them among the most
intelligent and useful dogs that we now
have any knowledge Of. Large tlocks OF
sheep are often guarded, miles away, by
n or two of these dogs, and II single
dog, assisting n man, can drive the flock
easier than half Il dozen men. From
this education IL has no wish TO leave
the flock, aud just an another dog will
defend It's master, man, 20 will this the

the dog Immediately advances, barking.

These dogs can be readily taught to
bring home the flock at II certain hour in
the evening. Their most Troublesome

your pup has learned to mind the word
and Is trained TO march back and forth
from one side OF the Aock to the other at
the sweep OF your hand, commence to
teach him to pass up the side of the

that it was also the creed of Cicero,
Julius Caesar and Tacitus. We COPY il

nothing OF these cIlamities. They touch
us not. We could suffer nothing, for
we were not. As it was before we began
to live, 20 it will be again when we have
ceased to live. Storms may roll over
the earth, lsnd may be mixed with sea
and SEA with sky. We shall know moth
ing of it. The substances of our bodies
viii be in other forms, with other s)uls
attached to them. New beings will
have come into existence, to live and
pass away as we did. But those beings
will not be lis. The continuity once
broken is broken forever. We shudder
when we losk upon,a corpse. We imagine
that when our bodies are corrupting we
shall be in some way present and con-
scious OF our W decay, but we shall
not be present. We shall not be any

They will not be taken from you, for
you will have no being. You will not

lament for them. You will be in peace.
" Why, then, unhappy mortal" says
Lucretius to the vain complainers,
why do you grieve? Why cry out on
death Has your life been happy, the !
banquet IL over; you have taken your
fill depart and be thankful. Have you
been unfortunate, has lie brought yeu
sorrow and pain, why wish for more of
it? Life and sorrow end together.
Would you live forever? The terms of
human existence do not alter, Had
you a thousand lives they could bring
you nothing new. You would but tread
again the same circle. As it has been
with you, 10 it would DO, though you
could repeat the process to eternity.
This il natures sentence, and who shall
gainsay her? Dry your tears. Peace
with your idle whines. Use your time
