Mustacae, q Military Dog.

If the deeds of brave men find their record
in print, may not corner now and then be
given to brave doings of our four footed
friends, the dogs? Probably no dog has ever
rendered such good service as the celebrated
poodle whose name stands at the head of
this short notice. French by birth, he fol-
lowed the fortunes of the French army
through most of the Consulate wars, winning
special honors at Marengo. At the battle OF
Austerlitz herescued the regimental standard
from an Austrian soldier, when in the act Of
snatching it from the hand of its mortally
wounded bearer. The plucky poodle drove
off the assailant, and then, seizing the tat
tered colors in his teeth dragged them trium-
phantly back to his own company. There is
nothing said as to his personal appearance
and bearing, or whether he was large or a
small, black or a white poodle; but for his
brave conduct, as above recorded, he was
decorated on the field of Austerlitz by one Of
the French officers.

The Glass of Water Under the Hat.

An innocent trick, which may afford some
amusement at an indoor party Of young peo-
pie, is as follows:
Place glass Of water upon the table, put a
hat over it, and offer to lay wager with any
of the company that you will empty the glass
without lifting the hat When your propo-
sition is accepted, desire the company not to
touch the hat, and then get under the table
and commence making sucking noise, smack
ing your lips at intervals, as though you were
swallowing the water with infinite satisfac-
ton to yourself. After minute or two come
from under the table, and address the person
who took your wager with, "Now, SIR" His
curiosity being of course excited, he will lift
up the hat in order to see whether you have
really performed what you promised, and the
instant he does so take up the glass, and after
having swallowed its contents say, "You
have Lost, sir, for you see have drunk the
water without raising the hat"

Various Useful Items About Prevailing
Wedding Customs and Usages.

Various Useful Items About Prevailing
Wedding Customs and Usages.
As weddings are again the order Of the day,
prospective brides and bridegrooms may find
assistance in few items of etiquette relating
to the important occasion when the matri-
monial knot is tied.
First and foremost, as an answer to ques-
ton that seems never to stay answered, it
may be emphatically remarked that bride
groom should never wear the usual evening
dress coat at a wedding in the day time. The
proper costume is what is known as formal
morning dress, for which black frock coat
is the correct one. No man Of fashion puts ON
his dress coat before his or z o'clock dinner.
Where death has recently occurred in
family all friends, even the widowed mother,
should, according to as good authority as
Mrs. Sherwood, lay aside their mourning for
the ceremony, appearing in colors. It is con-
sidered unlucky and inappropriate to wear
black at a wedding. In our country a wild
owed mother appears at her daughters we'd
ding in purple silk or velvet; in England she
wears deep cardinal red, which is considered
under these circumstances to be mourning or
proper for people in mourning.
A widow should never be accompanied by
bridesmaids or wear veil or orange blossoms
at her marriage.
She should wear at church colored silk
dress and bonnet and should be attended by
her father, brother or some near friend. It
is proper for her to remove her first wedding
ring, as the wearing Of that cannot but be
painful to the bridegroom.
Wedding cake, instead of being sent about,
is neatly packed in little boxes, and each
guest takes one, il she likes, as she leaves the
house.
The bridegroom makes what presents he
pieases to the bride and bridesmaids; he has
also, Of course, to buy the wedding ring and
send bouquet to the bride, but he does not
furnish the cards or carriages; this is done
by the brides family.
As soon as she can do so, the bride should
write upon note paper a note of thanks to
every one from whom she has received gift,
whether they are stranger to her or not, as
in that case their gifts have probably been
prompted from regard to her parents or
fiance, and should therefore be especially
acknowledged.
The wedding tour and the seclusion of the
honeymoon is no longer as obligatory as it
once was, and some very fashionable couples
have gone at once, or after few days trip,
to housekeeping in their own house, simply
issuing s'at home" cards and announcing q
day on which the bride will receive her
friends.

Mother-If he drives up with a span of

Slow Transformations Called Evolution.

Slow Transformations Called Evolution.
A blue egg may become robin. The Ia
tent life hid by marble walls may be warmed
into activity and gather to itself the crumbs
from a cottage table and weave therefrom
the tissues of life-feet to perch among the
blossoms, wings to fly among the trees, eyes
to revel in the scenes disclosed by sunlight,
and vocal organs to sing the song of love to
mate.
A tiny seed may become "big tree;" for,
warmed into life, it sends its rootlets into the
nourishing earth and its branches into the
vivifying air, and gathers materials with
which to build noble growth of the forest.
The rill born of a summer shower carries
the sand from the hillside and gives it to the
brook, and the brook bears it on to the river,
and the river transports it to the sea, and the
impregnated tide finds a nest beneath the
waves and in it lays the egg of an island.
Then this boss on the floor of the ocean has
the power to gather about it more sands as
they come from the distant hills, and still
more sands Every summer shower gives it
more, and every storm adds to the sands
that are thus buried beneath the sea, until at
last an island is hatched, as it lifts its head
above the waves.
Robins grow to be robins by minute in
crease; trees grow to be trees by minute in
crease; islands grow to be islands by minute
increase. This slow but sure change on
change, Science tells you. is called evolution.

THE CITY CHOIR.

Father an me are gettin' old;
We amt used to the way
OF goin' to hear the singin', stead
OF preachin', Sabbath day.
So when we was with Andrews folks.
An Sunday mornin' come,
We s'posed we'd hear the word and iine
In the sweet hymns they sung.
An when we stood in that dim aisle.
Meath arched an fluted stone.
A ray of light touched fathers hair
An his worn features shone
The organs grand an solemn tone
Jest sounded like a prayer,
An when it stopped seemed to feel
Wings beatin' through the air.
'"The prodigal," the preacher said,
"Of sinnin' weary grown,
Has left the swine an now has turned
His face towards his home"
Then all at once the choir riz;
It almost made me laugh
To hear that young soprany shrek,
Bring in the fatted calf!''

An all the rest iined In, as If
They couldn't let it 60.
The tenor's pleadin' touched my heart;
A critter'd been a stone
Not to hev come a-friskin' in
In answer to that tone.
Wa'al, pa, he sot with eyebrows bent,
Like bushes touched with snow
A-growin' round some sheeny lake,
Half hidin' its blue glow.
But when the bass had started in
A-callin' for that calf,
He jist reached fur his han'kerchief
To cover up a laugh.
Bring in the fatted, fatted calf"
Beloved the bass; an stars!

Dawson Sentinel !:

Dawson Sentinel:
In view of the exposure of the
wholesale robbery that has been
practiced upon the farmers OF
Minnesota by the elevator COM
panies, the governor would be
justified in calling al extra ses-
sion OF the legislature to remedy
the evil, could he be assured that
that notorious Doodle body
would not sell out to the opulent
wheat thieves. The experiment
might prove too costly, and up
on second thought we refrain
from advising his excellency to
take the risk. Well grin and
bear for another year; if the peo-
pie do their duty and select the
right men to represent them
honest men-capable men-we
need have no fear of the result.
