Refreshing His Memory.

Every one knows how slight thing
will sometimes Jog the memory, and
call to mind occurrences long forgot
ten. What is true of human beings
seems also to be true OF dogs.
Mrs. Edwin Booth, says the San
Francisco Chronicle, had little pet
dog which Mr.. Booth often held upon
his knee at the same time, asst seems,
pinching his ears in an absent-mind-
ed manner while engaged in converse
ton.
Mr.. and Mrs. Booth went to Europe,
and on their return after quite long
absence, the dog was found not to re-
member them.
Within week or so, however, Mr..
Booth had the dog on his knee, and
happened to fall to pinching his ear
in the old unconscious manner.
The little pet looked up at him for
q moment, and then jumped up de-
lighted, licked his masters hands,
showing plainly that he now, for the
first time, recognized his old friend.

1t Was Very Funny.
From the Philadelphia Times.


Some of the incidents of the Presi-
dents Western journey must have re-
paid him for ali the inconvenience it
occasioned. One of these certainly
was of an unusual kind. Early enc
morning the train stopped for water
at a little way station in Ohio. AZ
the depot was an elderly farmer who
showed great curiosity to see the Presi-
dent. "Can't 1 see Mr.: Cleveland ?"
he asked. ono, he's asleep and no
one can see him." was the response.
81 would like so much to see Mr..
Cleveland" persisted the old man.
Something in his tone struck his in
terlocutor and he asked: ''Do you
know Mr.. Cleveland ?""No," respond
ed the farmer, "but was well acquaint-
ed with a gentleman he hung in Buff
falo some years ago."
The story was told to the President
at the breakfast table, and drew from
him such an outburst of laughter as
was not heard again during the re-
mainder of the journey.

he had never admitted that the disease

malign. The malignant symptoms man
ifested in November have passed away.
