Shepherd Dog MS n Setter,

The Paxton boys, living near Rens
selaer, Jasper County, Indiana, ara own
ers OF Il shepherd dog named Carlo. He
Is now about ten years old, and in ali
the excursions made by the boys after
rabbits, squirrels and "such small deer"
Carlo was their constant companion, and
always enjoyed the hunt as we'll ms any
OF the party. Three or four years ago
the boys procured a softer, and in the
hunt for quail, ducks and prairie chick
ems Carlo was rclegatcd to the rear--in
other words, was tied in the woodshed
while his more accomplished fellow
canine occupied the post of honor Mt
the front This nearly broke the old
fellows hcnri, and his wailinp was 30
pitlinl that ON two or three occasions
after the departure Of the party, sym
pathetic little girl of the household
severed Carlos leash, and he lost no
time IN tracking aud joining the hunters.
How 1t came about, and by what
subtle process of canine ratiocinalion the
old shepherd dog ever got the idea
through his hair, shall not attempt to
explain but certain it is TINT very soon
the boys noticed that Carlo was "work-
ing " right alongside the setter without
IN iota OF training, and from more
observation Of the performance of his
fellow he picked up" the whole bust
ness, and in very short time no lar sur.
passed tho blooded professional in
every trick of the trained dog that the
latter was speedily disposed of, and
Carlo now rules supreme in the alice
tons of tho hunters on the Paxton farm.
Tie also carries the setter business into
all the ordinary rontine of his canine
duties. "Sick him on hog or COW,
md he will speedily take the trail, mp
proach very near the depredating animal,
and come to n dead halt, with every
muscle rigid as iron Being told to
"go," he goes, but not before. Old
hunters tell me that such case il M
precedcntod, and that | will probably
achieve a questionable reputation by
telling the story. But it is true to the

getting as far as tho hall, when new

up visibly and stand for some minutes

TUNIs owes much Of its old reputation
to the manufacture of the skull caps
worn by Orientals, for which it was once
fam GUS. At former period it was al
most tho only place in which these caps
we're manufactured. In the last century
$4,000 person were employed in Tunis
in making skull caps, and 5000 bales Of
Spanish wool were ANNUALLY used in tho
manufacture.
