DOG TOILETS IN PARIS.

There are 1869 workpeople, male and
female, who subsist in Paris by making
personal decorations and habiliments for
pet dogs or otherwise paying attention to
the canine race. The trade done by them
Il estimated at total of 5000, 900 to g..
oO6, 700 francs, or nearly quarter of a
million sterling, so that it may be easily
guessed how great comnotion is caused
among this section of society as often as
the dog days come around and the infiexi.
BILE rules OF the French police as to muzzling
these animals are again put in force against
their owners. The rage for dressing up
canine pets has long prevailed in France
to much greater extent than on the other
side OF the channel, and has assumed ex.
travagsnt proportions. The Figure gives
some examples of the most notable fashions
now to be observed among the fair owners.
Almost every variety of dog has it's own
proper toilet, besides its own special toilet.

sponges and other appliances for enabling

be by no means fitting fer "lulu, I"
nor docs it at all follow that what would
be admired on "caniche would be
deemed in good tastes for ''grifon. The
latter. which is long. haired and carly.
haired dog much priced by all French
women, is pitied and despised at this time
of year if he is not close shaven over the
body, leaving the lion.like name which
looks SO particularly ridiculous to the En-
glish eye. Smooth terriers, who cannot be
thus embellished or disfigured, are often
adorned with a little plain gold bracelet
soldered above the forefoot and surmounted
with monogram; but it is essential that
the leg encircled with this metal should be
the left aid not the right.A Rough terriers
have, on the other hand, aNcollar of bright
metaL having o medallion or clasp upon it,
sometimes with the photograph of the
owner, or Of some particular friend Of hers,
inclosed. The best bred "bulls," again,
ought to wear the collar known as the
"oficer," with colored ribbon-red or
blue for outdoor show and white for the
drawing-room. Every dog having any
claim to be well cared for must wear
cothurnes or tall boots when he gets out
walking, and these should be of doeskin.

A THRILLING AccIpENT-It was in the
cabinetmaker's shop, and party of stran.
gers were looking at the different labor
saving devices. One gentleman, very
short-sighted, had tarried at the bench
across the room. He was examining cir.
cular saw that was whirling its teeth with
lightning like rapidity. Absorbedly inter.
ested in the piece Of mechanism, his face
drew nearer and nearer to the cruel teeth,
tearing round and round, with remorseless
energy. At this instan. his friends turned
about. They see his danger. Inevitably
the gap grows smaller and smaller. SPELL
bound, they are unable to utter a
sound. They cannot endure to see
their friend torn and lacerated. In.
stinctively they shut their eyes. Then
comes the awfal jar of the collision.
There is whirling sound crash. A
shudder runs through them all. The next
instant they hear the voice of the cabinet.

But the saw was shattered. II had struck

An INTELLIGENT ToAp.-Chas. White.

which have run of portion of the yard,
the old hen being kept up. The chickens
are fed with moistened meal in saucers.

that the toad hss taken it up AZ a regular
