An auction sale fascinates.
To the inexperienced it is often
sell, bringing dearly bought
knowledge. But 1t has fascina-
tons. The catalogue, the goods
put up in lots-the exciting
competitions.
We are not to have an auc-
ton, but certain auction meth
DDS are to move lots of Cur
tains that we are anxious to
close.
First. There is a catalogue
that you will find in the fine
type which follows.
Second. The goods are to
be sold only in lots. but there is
such a variety Of Curtains and
quantities that many notions
can be pleased.
Third. The prices are auc-
ton prices or less. In fixing
them no questions have been
asked about cost. This is a
forced sale. What will people
give for them at forced sale /?
The answer makes the price.
For example, take lot 4S, two
pairs Silk Curtains that have
been $40, or $50 for the lot.
What will they bring ? $40 !!
Then $40 they Shall be.
Or again, lot 81. Two and a
half pairs - five Curtains -
have been Sa5 a pair, or S6a.so
for the lot. (Now if this were
real auction the glib-tongued
crier would dwell upon delicate
color, rich silk, oriental pattern,

DOGS AS HORSES.

of Burden.

The Country Where They Are the Beasts
of Burden.
have met M. Nantet, the Belgian au-
thor, who follows the usage of his coun-
try in utilizing the dog as draught an
imal. He has little phaeton drawn by
dogs in which he drives about when at
home, and in which he has come from
Brussels to Paris. M. Nantet thinks
that Belgium, with her cherries sky
and sodden soil, is able to hold her own,
and be among the most prosperous ma
tions of Europe, because the dog is not
only the friend and comrade, but the
carrier of the poor man. The coster-
monger and his wife in Paris or London
are broken down prematurely from ia
tigue, and the stabling and fodder for a
donkey is heavy tax on their profits,
but their Belgian brethren can house
their dogs with themselves. The dogs,
after being embarrassed dine with their
masters, and in winter sleep before the
kitchen fire.
The strength Of good draught dog is
marvellous. He does not spoil roads like
horse, and when tired he asks to lie
down, a favor always granted, and, On
being rested, goes on again cheerfully.
The pair which drew M. Nantet is of
average size and strength, and had a
long line of ancestors, who did good
work in their time as carriers. When at
an inn their master used to unharness
them and take them with him into the
coffee room, where they lay down at his
feet. He drove all the way, unless
where there was steep hill to climb.
At a place called Louvroil the mayor
heard he had come into the town, and
informed him that his equipage came
within the reach of the Grammont Law
for the Protection of Animals. Every
WE'LL" answered the Belgian, who was
preparing to start, and he ordered the
dogs to get into the phaeton and sit on
the seat, while he drew them. They
obeyed and stayed there until they were
beyond the bounds of the commune,
where they descended to be harnessed.
To avoid crowds, who might think well
to take part with the dogs against their
master, NJ. Nantet kept clear of large
towns. At Compeign he telegraphed to
a number of Belgians here at what time
he was likely to reach Paris, and they
went out to meet him. When he was
sighted the dogs we're going at a brisk
pace. He thinks they could have done
the journey comfortably in five days, but
as he is as much their friend as their
owner he gave them seven.-PariS Cor.
