A clever Dog.

A man who drives "a pretzel wagon
around Chicago has a great curiosity
and patent advertisement in the
shape of q yellow dog. This dog is u
sort of Scotch terrier, and he il
wonderful because he does not sit ou
the seat with the driver, like ordinary
dogs, but he jumps on the horse S
back, runs up towards his shoulders.
aud, with forefeet on the horses col
lar, he rides through the streets as
though perfectly at home in his
strange position. The horse trots
along with a numbering gait which
must be most uncomfortable to
to his canine passenger, but the dog
holds his i" seat" sometimes on three
feet, sometimes on two, and seldom
on oil four. He seems to like it. too.
and appears to enjoy the wondering
stares and amused chances of people
who see him in his great feat for the
first time. The driver appears uncon-
scious of the sensation his pet is
making, but all the same he enjoys
it as much as the dog does.-Chicago

my train was about thirty minutes

struck me in the face, making n
slight wound. 1 slowed down.

I asked of the fireman. pointing to a
