There is dog at Brighton (England)
"a remarkable dog-a large maltese.
Sometimes that dog has a purple body,
with yellow head and green tail;
sometimes he is scarlet and blue. He
is kind of rainbow dog. The fact is
he belongs to dyer in the town, and
being naturally white he takes to any
other color easily, and now he gets dip
in one vat and now in another, and he
forms a sort of canine advertisement
1t is fun to see this dog, who is quite
unconscious of his distinguished con-
dition, come up to other dogs wsgging
his yellow head and green tail. and the
way that those dogs, after regarding
him for q minute, tuck their tails be-.
tween their legs and "scoot" is eau
ton. Some time ago a man who had
been occasionally a victim of the "old
complaint" was going down to Brighton
for the race week in great health and
spirits. When driving from the station
ne suddenly came on this dog. "Hello!
hey what's that? Hey! hey! what?
apurple dog with green tail. Oh, lor!
oil, Tor! got 'em again" and he turned
round and went back to London, firmly
persuaded that he was again victim to

In speaking of retrenchment, the Ward
Reflex says: "Hang all the murderers,
establish a whipping post for grand and
petty larceny thieves, chloroform the
lunatics, allow the Legislature to meet
only once in four years, require the State
officers to do their own work instead of
by deputy, and $3.50, 900 will be saved to
the Safe annually" Every word Of
which is Gospel truth.

A matchmaker at Copenhagen, of the
name of Sonderberg, is reported to have
made watch which requires no winding
up, inasmuch as it performs that work
itself, by means of an electric current.
An electric magnet fixed inside the watch
keeps the spring perpetually in state Of
tension. All that is required to keep the
watch running is to preserve the battery
in proper working order, for which pur-
pose one or two inspections in a twelve
month are said to be sufficient F.
