Sagacity of Shepherd Dogs.

Portland Oregonian.
A gentleman who has had consid-
cradle to do with shepherds and
drovers in England and Scotland,
speaking of the story published in
the Oregonian day or two since
about a dog separating the ewes and
wethers OF a flock by noticing the
ear marks, says there is no doubt
but what it is true. He has known
dogs to go into a drove OF sheep
which were marked with several diff
ferent marks, and single out every
one bearing his masters mark. He
says the shepherds train their dogs
by taking them along when puppies
under their care as they mark the
sheep. and the dog is thus taught to
distinguish marks. He says further
that at the sheep market in Isling-
ton drivers have their sheep marked
with red or blue paint, and when the
drives get mixed a dog will go into
the band and bring out all his mas
ter's sheep, telling them by the color
of the marking. Shepherd dogs are
the most intelligent species of the
canine family and when they are
brought up among herds of sheep
and trained to take charge of them.
it is but reasonable to suppose that
they might learn to notice marks OF
any kind on them.

A ShreWd Elephant.

The following story is told by DR..
Romanes: An elephant was chained
to a tree in the compound opposite
Mr.. Townsend's house. It's driver
made an oven at q short distance,
in which he put his rice cakes to bake,
and then covered them with stone s
and grass and went away. When
be was gone the elephant with his
trunk unfastened the chain round
his foot, went to the oven and ur-
covered it, took out aud ate the
cakes, recovered the oven with tie
stones and grass as before and went
back to his place. He could no t
fasten the chain again roun
his own foot, so he twisted it round
and round it, in order to look the
same, and when the driver re-
turned the elephant was standing
with his back to the oven.
The driver went to his cakes, dis
covered the theft, and, lookinground
caught the elephants eye as he look,
ed back over his shoulder out of thu
corner Of it. Instantly he detectel
the culprit, and condign punishment
followed. The whole occurrence was
witnessed from the windows by tho
family.-Philadelphia Times.

A Bird That Eats Its Kind,

A remarkable bird about the size
of robin, and much resembling the
kingfisher without the prominent
tuft of feathers, attracted consider
able attention on street in Kenne-
bee, Me-, recently. Flying along to
an English sparrow with one dart OF
his hooked beak he killed the little
bird, and then placing one foot upon
his victims breast proceeded to tear
in pieces and dsvour him, A stage
driver picked up the feathered canni-
bal and his prey and carried them
into a nearby store, where, perched
upon the counter, he devoured the
sparrow with apparent relish. The
bird seemed to have no fear of any
one, and showed no antipathy
against anything but the sparrows,
several Of which he killed during the
afternoon. Hlsspecies was unknown
to any who saw him, but tits thought
he is one of the variety known as
butcher bird.-New Haven Times.

"Sweet HOme.v

"There is no place like home, runs
the old song, and we know how true
it is.
Go where we will--encounter men
in whatever circumstances we may
we shall be apt to find that refer
ence to their homes will Immediately
secure their attention, and will give
you favor in their eyes.
The impressions made in the home
are lasting. A mothers words never
pass from the mind. A fathers
counsel remains fresh so long as life
lasts. The last benediction of pa
rental love and solicitude-with what
tenacity it clings to the memory
when almost all else has gone.
How important, therefore, that
the home be maintained intact as
long as possible-a haven of loving
counsel, OF peace and joy to the
growing children. How sad when
death invades, when the fire goes
out on the heartstone and the family
is scattered. What the children lose
by the death of a parent only those
realize who have grown up without
that love and advice which parent
alone can bestow.
No doubt, tens of thousands
of parents have found pre-
mature graves, who might
have lived years of usefulness, had
they but known what was sapping
their strength, and slowly but sure
ly pushing them into the grave.
There are tens of thousands of
parents to-day in agony OF mind
through fear of death from kidney
disease, who do not know they are
doctOring only symptoms-such
as wakefulness, nervousness, n
splendid feeling one day and
an all gone one another,
drOpsy, weak heart action, pneu-
monia, neuralgia, tickle appetite,
ETC., while the real troubles poison ed
blood caused by diseased kidneys.
Unless purified with Warmers Safe
Cure they will just as surely die, as
UIIOuSu JOlSOIleu Will dfSeIllc.
If you are suffering as described,
and have been for any length of time,
you are, unless you get relief right
speedily, stricken with death, wheth-
er you know it or not.
Doctors publicly admit that they
cannot cure advanced kidney dis
ease; they are too bigoted to use
Warmers Safe Cure because it is an
advertised remedy; consequently, I'M
less you use your own good judg-
ment, secure and use Warmers Safe
Cure, a specific, which has proved
itself in tens of thousands ofcases to
be all it is represented, your home,
through your death, will be broken
up and your loved ones deprived of
that which money cannot purchase
or friends supply.
Already too many loving parents,
noble, kind and true, have gone
down to premature graves through
ignorance of their condition, and the
bigotry of physicians. 1t is time to
cry a halt, and we beg of you, for
the love you bear you home and
the duty you owe pourself, to give
this matter your careful and con-
ScientiOus consideration.

MAY Pluck Opulent Americans.

In view of the present financial
gloom which overshadows the peo-
pie of France and especially ofParis,
it is suggested for the comfort OF
such speculative Frenchnan as have
been squeezed in the Panama Canal
collapse. or the copper syndicate
failure, that a great many Americans
are going to the Paris Exposition
during the coming summer, and their
presence with plenty of money to
spend will enable unlucky French
men to recoup themselves.
'The American tourist" the Bos-
ton Herald remarks in this connec-
ton sis the best bird that the for
eigners ever had a chance to pluck,
and they rarely let their opportuni-
ties pass unimproved."

Shrewd Advertisers.

Readers of the newspapers of the
day cannot fail to be impressed with
the fact that the modern advertiser
is progressive.
He is compelled to be, else compe-
titors more active in the invention
ofnew advertising devices, will out
strip him in public favor.
The value OF printers ink jude
iously and scientifically employed
cannot be overestimated; it is the
medium whereby a meritoriously
discovery is raised from local fame
to q position in the public esteem.
Hence the columns of the newspa-
pers are daily used by hosts ofadver-
tisers and in the competition which
is INDUCED in to attain the desired
end the reader is oftentimes amused.
The greatest of American advertis-
ers, and it may as we'll be said in the
world, is H. H. Warner of Rochester,
N. Y, whose name has been every
where familiar in connection with
Warmers Safe Cure, widely adver-
tised because of it's merit in the pre-
vention and cure of kidney diseases.
BY printers ink this great dis
covery has achieved worldwide pop
ularity and thousands feel grateful
for the knowledge thus acquired of
this greatest of modern remedies.
Furthermore, the public has been
taught that disorders of the lungs,
brain, heart and liver which have
hitherto been regarded and treated
by the profession as dinstinctive dis
eases are not so in fact, but are the
attending symptoms of disease of
the kidneys, therefore, the consump-
tive, the apoplectic, the paralytic,
and the sufferer from nervous dis
orders can be restored to health by
Warmers Safe Cure, which will re-
move the true cause of those dis
orders by restoring the kidneys to
healthy action.
The advertising methods employed
by this greatest Of advertisers are
invariably instructive and, although
the reader may sometimes be
caught" in reading an advertise
ment, which was not at first suppos-
ed to be such, there is nevertheless
no'time lost since useful information
is invariably gained concerning LIES
great problem.

Speaker Graves took the floor TO advocate
n resolution calling on the committee on

FRIDAY, MARCH 20.
SENArE,-Among the bills introduced was

Mr.. Pope introduced bill amending the
railway law in several particulars. The

pleasing occupation.

ity of cars evid ance of larceny. 1t, was. how

A Good Dog Story.

DR.. Boyer, of this place, has very
fine Newfoundland dog, with o kind,
intelligent face, which accompanies
him on his visits to the sick. His
name is Rover. He seems to take
q deep interest in materia medica,
and 10 understand the treatment oil
ordinaryills. Notlnng ago Christian
Miller, who thinks the only good
CANNES are the dead ones, gave Row
err dog button. Rover, installing
it for a mint lozenge, of which he is
very fond, and believing Christian to
be his friend, ate it. But he soon
afterward discovered that it was
poison. So, running home as fast
as he could, he went to the doctors
dispensary, got down bottle Oh
tincture of lobelia, pulled the cork
out with his teeth, drank copiously
of it, and by the use of this emetic
escaped death by poisoning. Since
then his demeanor toward Christian
