Trained Dogs in War.

Dogs in some instances carry the con-

fastened to the collar, and this certain
" seems to have the advantage of
security, as attracting the least possible
amount of attention; whereas the
leather letter-case hanging from the
collar, or the two leather pockets at
taehed to a strap passing under the
body and kept in position by a second
strap across the chest, though, OF
course available for bulkier documents,
is undoubtedly more conspicuous, and
more liable to render the dog an object
of suspicion and mark for bullet.
By similar arrangement OF straps the
war-dog is enabled to carry small
9ase of ammunition, and is thus made
useful on the outward march, ere he is
dispatched on his solitary journey as
military postman. Some sanguine
trainers even hope that dogs may be
trained to return to the munition

bring fresh supplies to the fighters, re-

wANAMAkER'S PICTURE.
How the Only Existing Photograph of the
Noted Philadelphia Was Taken.

How the Only Existing Photograph of the
Noted Philadelphia Was Taken
John Wanamaker, the millionaire
merchant prince OF Philadelphia, has
deep-seated objection to sitting for
portrait. He has repeatedly declined
the overtures of his family and friends
who are anxious to secure counterfeit
presentment, and up to the present
time it is not known that his features
have been transferred to paper in any
regular manner. A year ago, however,
Mr. Wanamaker was passenger on
one of the North Lloyd steamers from
Europe 70 New York. During the voy-
age he was frequently surrounded by a
bevy of frolicsome girls, who made as
much of him as they would of the most
eligible beau at a fashionable watering
place They were, in fact, more atten-
tive than the proprieties warranted.
One of them in particular hung around
the Philadelphian's stSamer-chair al
most every time he appeared on deck.
and her marked attention caused great
many jokes to be cracked at her ex-
pense Among the passengers was
passenger who had travelled extensively
in Europe for an Eastern newspaper,
and who had procured one of those
small detective cameras which is con-
cealed in an apparently innocent button
on the coat itself. Seeing this young
lady around Mr. Wanamaker, the news
paper man determined to catch a pho
tograph, and one bright afternoon he
stepped in front of them just as lurch
of the ship threw the young lady into
Mr. Wanamaker's lap. The focus was
just right and the telltale machine was
snapped on the instant 1t happened,
however, that the Philadelphia man
moved his head just as the chemicals
we're getting in their deadly work, so
that his features are not well defined In
the negative; but the position is perfect,
and the outline of the young lady's face,
as well as the figure of the millionaire.

Difficulties in Trousers.

Speaking of trousers reminds one
that they are the most difficult garment
in mans wardrobe to get on comfort
ably with, in pathological sense. There
are large sections of the country where
they are degraded by being called
pants" Even in cities they have
their defamers, persons who never
speak of them by their correct name.
These persons frequently speak Oh
themselves as gents" and wherever
there are gents" you will hear OF
pants The waistcoat has had its
nomenclatural troubles, too; but never
has any name so inelegant and often
sive been bestowed upon it as is applied
to trousers by those who call them
pants" Vests" is not the name il
prefers, although ''vest" is not a de-
parture from the proper name too terri
bic to be borne. Even the good old
fashioned word "overcoatn is being
driven from its citadel. In circles where
clothes are matters OF great moment
s'top-coats" and ''great-coats' are men,
toned, but 'overcosts" are seldom
heard of. Words have their fashions
as well as garments Dress
