Ancient Dogs.

In the Danish "kitchen-middens, or
heaps of household refuse, piled up by
the men of the newer-stone period-a
time when our Scandinavian forefath-
ers used Clipped and polished fints
instead of metals for their Weapons
are found bone-cuttings belonging to
some species of the genus eanis. Along
with these remains are some of the long
bones of birds, all the other bones of
the said birds being absent. Now it is
known that the bird bones here found
are the very ones which dogs cannot
devour, while the absent ones are such
as they can bolt with ease, and it has
been ingeniously argued from this that
the remains III question did really
belong to n domestic dog, as, If
the animals to which they appertained
had been wolves, they would have
made short work of the long bones as
we'll as of the others Other dog bones
are found in Denmark in later periods.
At the time when the flint knives were
succeeded by bronze large dog existed,
and at the time when iron was used one
larger still. In Switzerland, during
the newer stone period, n dog existed
which is probably the oldest of which
We have any record. 1t "partook of
the character of hounds and settlers, or
spaniels," and, in the matter of its
skull, twas about equally remote from
the wolf and jackal." This dog, too,
like its Danish contemporary, was sue
ceeded in the bronze period 10y larger
variety. Thus we see at time when
our ancestors were living ain dens and
cation about equal to that of the Afri-
can or Australian aborigines of the
present day. the dog was already sys-
tematically kept and selected, that is,
any good varieties which appeared
were taken note of and kept up.-CaS-

There is no better authority on walk
ing than Miss Bertha Won Hillern,
whose pedestrian feats and most
agreeable presence will be- pleasantly
remembered here. She did what
she undertook TO do, and she did not
break down, either then or since, show
ing that she had the full measure OF
her own strength. Moreover, the
money which was made by her exhibit
tions of walking, was devoted 10 art
study, and she has spent several years
In outdoor sketching among the noun
tains OF Virginia, which results that have
been exhibited in Earies Galleries. In
that Virginia region everybody goes on
horseback--ii not the beggars at
least il is the understood etiquette that
one may always LOrToW horse in
stead OF walking half mile. Miss Non
Hillern's observations on the ill-health
of people who never walk. led her to
give advice to a number of women for
walking as a regimen. In Baltimore
journal she tells the results of her ex-
perience, advising even consumptiyes
to take regular and gradually increas-
ing walks Tor the benefit to the circula-
ton. The Household has already told
the story of the old patrician Philadel-
phian who always cured her colds by
going to the washtub along with her
maids; and if the washtub is not always
available, the walk is. When there is
the feeling OF having taken cold, the
miserable" allroverishness," without any
localized sensation, a good walk will
frequently throw OF the clutch OF
cold. But it must be Bertha Non-
Hillern walk, free elastic, brisk, not en-
indolent dawdle. Miss Won Hillern
walks with her arms; these in great
activity, and until this has been no one
really knows how exhilarating q walk
may be- The chest is expanded, the
breath comes easily, the walk is not all
thrown on the lower limbs, but a sort
of electrical glow reminds you that
however. we'll descended-even the ba-
bies begin life with walking on call
fours" To walk with all tours. that is
with the arms swinging in rhythm to the
stride is to take health walk. This
is sure to cure low spirits and some
other things. Miss Won Hillern re-
lates how she broke up ia nting and
trembling spell in friend by suddenly
inducing her TO take a quick run down
a hill, thus bringing the circulation in
good play. This, of course, was not
heart-failure, which is among the ex-
captions that she makes to her general
rules that walking will cure. Many
people who believe themselves and in
deed seem too weak to walk, might
profit by her encouragement and re-
minders of what real walking does for
the body, what sluggish functions it
brings into play. 1t is pity there is
not walking rink here for women,
who will probably not begin to swing
their arms in the streets unless they
shall have plenty Of company, or some
Princess should set the fashion.
Whenever a sitting-room feels too
chilly, in the autumn or spring days
while it is not considered cold enough
for fire, Miss Won Hillern recon-
mends to take brisk scamper of few
minutes out of doors before settling
down to sewing, with the result that
the good glow will continue and keep
you in comfort for hours afterward.-
