Training French War pogs.

The stdog corps IN the French army is
being carefully trained at Belfort, and the
pupils begin to do credit to their teachers.
Huge dogs are chosen, and every day they
are shown soldiers in German uniform
and excited to fly at the pseudo enemies,
being meanwhile kept in by a strong
chain. This lesson learned, the dogs are
taken to the outposts,i each attached to a
sentinel, when presently a sham German
saunters by. The dogs fly after him with
such zeal that as a rule the soldier has to
make for the nearest tree. One difficulty
perplexes the authorities-the sporting
dogs will neglect their man hunting duties

rhex have No 1ore for Honest MEN.

The Democratic papers In Ohio are
abusing Allen G.. Thurman with extraor-
binary vindictiveness, because he APP
peared in court o few days since as as
sistant counsel for the prosecution against
"Bob" Montgomery in one of the tally
sheet forgery cases. Chief among Judge
Thurman's maligners is The Cincinnati
Enquirer, which accuses him of ingrati-
tude to the Democratic party in trying to
convict Montgomery. Thus has sthe
noblest Roman fallen from his high es-
tate in the estimation of old partisan as
sociates. Nevertheless ne can console
himself with the reflection that Democ-
racy owes much more to him than he
owes TO Democracy. 1t is instructive to
see the leading Democratic newspapers OF
Ohio c~ondemning the most prominent
Democrat of that state-now retired from
politics-for lending his professional aid
as a lawyer to an efforttn behalf of honest
elections.-Troy Times.

specific of nature. Even the physician

There probably never was time in
which the use of some form of Peruvian
bark, under the name of cinchona,
quinidia, etc., has been so extensive as
at present.
''Is it not used to cxcess?"
''Undoubtedly, and surely it should
not be used at random, and the medical
adviser may need often to be consulted
as to indications and contra-indications
for its use. But it can safely be said
that it is less abused than most medi-

is not uncommon. .''-New York Mail.

A man who had heard either of the
Oriental fashion of pouring rose
water on the fingers after meal,
or else of the French style, not very
generally adopted in this country, of
passing around large bowl of rose
water into which each guest dips his
napkin and wipes his fingers Herewith,
went into a well-known china shop the
other day and selected and paid for two
finger-bowls. Like most Americans,
he hesitated to own that he did not
know everything, but while counting
his change he said shyly: 1.-TWO is
enough, think" Certainly" said
the saleswoman, ''if you have but one

"But / want these fora dinner party"

of queer blunders to convince him that

Economy Of A. T. Stewart and Mrs.
AstOr.

A story has lately been told that IL
lustrates A. T. Stewards noted econo-
mical spirit. He had given dinner
and theater party, and instead of TAX
ing his guests to the theater in car
riages, as they had expected, he hailed
a stage and democratically hustled
them all into it. Judge and Mrs. Hill
ton were of the party. While paying
the fares Mr.. Stewart dropped piece
of money, and during almost the entire
trip kept turning up straw in the bot
tom of the stage in search of it. Judge
Hilton, who was sitting near him, took
from his pocket a nickel, and, passing
tito the millionaire, said: .For heavens
sake, Mr.. Stewart put this in your
pocket, and don't kick up any more
dust with that straw"
And here is something similar about
Mrs. John Jacob Astor. who died not
long ago: One night when the candle
by which the servants lighted their way
to bed gave out before the allotted
time, Mrs. Astor said to Justine, the
old French woman who had lived with
them some years: Sprinkle saltaround
the wick, Justine, and it will light You
to bed. .n-Neso York Sun

A Girl Art Students Romance.

-Four or five years ago three girl art
students from New York went up into
the 'Catskills to spend the summer
sketching. There they became ac-
quainted with the daughter of their
innkeeper. She was a bright, intelli-
gent girl, and she dif1idently showed
them her own drawings, which, al
though done without a master, even
to these critical young eyes gave prom
ise of better things. The innkeeper's
daughter was entirely without money.
The three young artists were about as
much better off as the little boy who
one cold winter night said to his moth
er: ''Dear mamma, what will become
of the poor little children of New York
tonight who have no nice stick of
wood to cover them?" But they de-
termined to take the responsibility of
her education upon themselves.
They brought her to New York,
shared with her their bread and cheese
and folding bed, which was at the
same time trunk. wardrobe, a cook
ing stove, and piano, and when times
grew more difficult one of them sold
her jewelry-an heirloom-to help out.
Well, they all went to Paris last sum-
mer: the protege, as was to be expect
ed. developing more talent than any
of her sponsors, and, while studying
there, who should come along but
Prince Charming, himself an art
list, and straightway out of the four he
selected the protege on whom he be-
slowed his heart and hand. Nextweek
they are going to be married, and the
wedding is to take place at the home
of one of her three friends. She will
wear white dress and carry boquet
of red roses, and the next day she will
sail away to study the domestic arts
