A Paris Dog and Cat Hospital

Paris Cor. OF the Hartford Times
At an evening reception recently,
which your correspondent had the
honor of attending, pet cat belong
ing to the household was one of the
honored personages, for Doodle" had
just returned from a weeks stay at
the hospital "Boodie" was the
name OF a fine large Angora which had
been suffering with rheumatism, and
consequently was the object OF as much
sympathy as though it had been a
child with the measles Said the host
ess:
''We sent to the doctors to see what
allied the cat, and an awfully swell
man came to examine it, and he said
it ought to be sent to the hospital,
where it could get better nursing
1t cost forty francs to cure him, but
now he IS all right" I straightway
visited the cat and dog hospital, and
a curious place it is, both for sights
and sounds. elieve there are sew
eral institutions OF the kind in Paris,
built on model plan. | hope the
editor will not feel called upon to refer

The hospital is situated in the sub

in the back yard of which has been q

All sorts of dogs and cats were here,
some with broken legs, some with

Outside the ward there are three

charge of the hospital said he believed
there was no danger from hydropho

Manners of Society Girls.

The manners OF society girls grow
more easy every day, says q writer in
the Brooklyn Eagle. They can't be
called masculine exactly, because the
term implies q certain amount of
frmness or hardness, and there is
nothing in the least strained about
the society girl of this season. She is
strikingly erect, and she invariably
carries her head so high that it gives
her an appearance OF unusual height.
Her self poise and serenity are abso-
lutte. 1t doesn't seem to make the
slightest difference whether she is sur
rounded by horses, dogs, OF men, she
has the same careless, fearless and
easy air under all circumstances. It
is not familiarity and it is certainly
not coarseness. On the stairs of the
Metropolitan Opera House on the
night of the charity ball there stood
the daug liter OF a society matron who
is well known In certain set here,
standing q few feet from. her mother.
and waiting for that lady to finish a.
series of voluble inquiries that she
was addressing to another old lady OF
similar habits OF small talk. There
was crowd OF at least 10 men around
the l9-yearold girl-she was scarcely
a year out of the convent-and she
stood there entertainingt them all with
the ease and grace OF a society veter-
an. She had word and a glance for
each man SIS he came UP, and there
| was constapt ripple OF laughter
She stood with her hand carelessly
folded before her, her color was not in
the least heightened, and she was all
in all as calm and as thoroughly
amused as she might have been at
home listening to q bit Of gossip from,
her own brother.

Equal to the Emergency.

A short time since gentleman who
lived in o small town not far from
Buffalo went the way Of all flesh, and
the burial ceremonies to be performed
over his remains were committed to
the charge Of a local undertaken. The
funeral was quite an important one,
for the gentleman was prominent in
his own town and q number of his
friends from the city were present.
The services were held In the church,
but just as the time arrived for taking
the remains to the cemetery. severe
thunderstorm came up and it was
considered best not to start until the
worst of the storm was over. The
wait was rather an emb arrassing one,
but the undertaken was equal to the
emergency. Standing on the chancel
steps he shouted so as to be heard in
the choir loft at the other end Of the
building: 1.-THE organist will please
give us a little music to while away

is multiplying faster than the ingen-
uity Of man can devise instruments
of destruction to keep even, much
less destroy. Their introduction in
this section dates within the memo
ry of persons now living. That they
are on the increase is plain and
alarming. Like the skunk, the of
fensive part is it's scent. This is per
meating. Nearly all domestic ami
mails Craze it. If eaten just prior to
slaughtering it utterly ruins beef,
mutton, pork, poultry, milk, butter
and cheese. Nothing renders these
things SO repugnant. The man who
plans an implement for it's final de-
struction will be immortal in his
tory, and live in the memory Of man
as long as Howe, Fulton or Morse.
What is more unsightly than fence
ways grown up in briars and bushes
too high to look over and see the
crops within? 1t is an infallible sign
of laziness and the man who suffers
it is willfully so or born tired, as
some would say. The only remedy
is to clean the seed planted and
wage an incessant war against all
that is growing, and in time it may
be conquered. If all the farmers
would set resolution and carry it
out to fight the tares in grain to the
death, in ten years they would very
nearly disappear. They are luxur-
liant this season, and will get an ad-
vantage that it will take time to re-
gain. -.

after few days the depth could be

Good drainage, deep blowing, good

deep and shallow, on any lands, with
little manure, will secure better av-
