A Commercial Treaty Between Dog

A Commercial Treaty Between Dog
 and Hen.
 From Letter to the London Spectator.]
 Your dog-loving readers may be interested in the following instance of animal sagacity. Bob" is a fine two-year-old mastiff, with head and face of massive strength, height ened by great mildness of expression. One day he was seen carrying hen very gently in his mouth to the kennel. Placing her in one corner he stood sentry while she laid an egg, which he at once devoured. From that day the two have been fast friends, the hen refusing to lay anywhere but in "Beosa 8S .; ken morsels from his platter. There must have been bit of canine reasoning here. Bob" must have found eggs to his liking, that they were laid by hens, and that he could best se- cure supply by having hen to himself.

ANOTHER "REFoRM" POSTMASTER.
4 nentIeman nanad Martir sohra;,a. h,

A gentleman named Martin Schmidt has farm that is situated jointly in Trumbull and Bridgeport. He expected some time ago to receive money from his native place In Germany, and not receiving 1t, tel egfAphed to the above country to ascertain if it had been sent. He received in reply that it was started some time previous to recaiv- ing his telegram. After inquiry at the Tram bull office several times, also at the Bridge port office, he began to think that he was the loser to the amount of 1000 marks, Ger man money. What was his surprise a couple of days ago, says the Standard, to have the Trumbull postmaster hail him while at work in field and tell him that he had in his possession letter that he had received several weeks ago and his wife, thinking it was valuable, put 1t in bureau drawer and had forgotten it, although Mir. Schmidt had called for it several times. It had lain in the above drawer for two months. Mir. Schmidt of course is pleased to recover his $25O-but thinks postmaster's wives had better let the business of their husbands alone.
