 once knew two dogs thaS tocr rr2at delight in catching crabs, saS nritar in Forest and Stream, not soft crabs but lusty, hard ones, capable Cf making a good fight. Whom about twelve years of age used to spend my vacations at a large farm on tributary of the Chesa- peake bay. Besides myself there was another boy and two dogs at this house. One of the dogs was a large Newfound- land. and the other was one of those medium-sized, pu2zling combinations of short hair and no particular color probably an all-around dog, as con cerned his breeding.
 One day noticed the large dog wad- ing about in the shallow water at the foot of the yard and evidently searching for something. l found that he was looking for crabs. When crab was discovered he would prance around it, and, after making several attempts, seize it in his mouth and bring it up on the beach, and then play with it, much us a eat does with mouse, until the poor crab was either dead or helplessly exhausted He seemed to do this for the mere sport of the thing, barking all the time in tone that denoted excite ment rather than anger. He never ate the crabs after killing them, The crabs fought back to the best of their ability, and it was often difficult to say which had the tightest grip, dog or crab, for !, xH,,,l1 faStnn nm, tA ton of the dogs mouth with both of his powerful pinchers, and it would require much shaking before he would drop off.

ENGLISH AS SHE IS WROTE.
Struggles of an Enterprising Frenchman
 with Our Native Tongue.

Struggles of an Enterprising Frenchman
 with Our Native Tongue.
 The joyous Portuguese writer who rendered lasting service to the gayety of nations in his learned essay on English as She Is Spoke" probably derived his knowledge of our language through the complicated media of Portuguese-French and q French-Eng- fish dictionary, and the latter we sus- pect to have been the same one em- ployed by the compiler of Baschet's Catalogue Illustre" of the Paris salon. This really interesting work not only gives more or less entertaining impress sion of a large number of paintings re- produced in wood cuts, says the New York Times, but in it's English render ing of the French titles it gives a de- lightful notion of some French concep- tions of our own intricate and baflling tongue.
 When the translator sought the Eng fish for "Une Bagarre--Dcs Bgufs ltalicns,' the title to picture repre- senting a stampede of Italian cattle, he hit upon the simple phrase; "A Squab-
 
 Porte-Carnier" attached to the picture of bright young game carrier, follow ing asportsman who has evidently, from the appearance of the well-filled sack over the boys shoulder had very good luck, and he rendered the title; "John, My Game Bag" When M. Berthelon paints sea after the storm and styles it; "Mer Demontee" the translator gives us: "An Outrageous Sea-" the genesis of which quite eludes us. A still life with red chalk sketch against some books and an old metal urn has it's title: "Une Sanguine" plumply turned into: "A Sanguine." With touch of unexpected familiarity with early Eng fish "Printemps Fleuri" becomes Ebony Spring" group of iron clads streaming on their way "Escadre en Marche" is described with more ac- curacy than elegance as "Squadron on Rout." A soldier exercising a horse from the military breeding farm Promenade au Haras" is: Walk in the Grazing Grounds" which is as in- genious a combination of misconcep. tons as we have run across, unless we accept the translation of La voie l lactee," g decorative design for cell |

Experiments in Niylsection.

In England licenses to experiment upon living animals are grudgingly granted, and only to persons recom- mended by high scientific authority, A strict record of all experiments in vivi- section is kept, and reported annually to parliament. The latest of these re- ports shows during 1890, 2,lO2 experi- ments by no persons. In 920 cases the patient suffered no pain, being kept in a condition of perfect an psthesia, while in s57 eases the pain endured was only that caused by hy- podermic injection. The government inspector reported that he had not found a single animal which seemed to be in bodily pain. The subjects under investigation included tuberculosis, can cer, diphthelia; pneumonia, tetanus, rabies, circulation, respiration, nerve action, the effect of various pnisons and narcotics, the development of bac- teria, etc.

Homes for French yVorkmen.

Hitherto the working classes in Paris have lived in great tenement houses and have had no experience of separate dwellings. Now, however, an effort is to be made to provide them an improved mode of life. A society with a large capital has been formed for the pur- pose. There will be six thousand houses erected. to constitute quarter in the extreme northeast, on site hith- erto partly haunt of roughs. Already nearly two hundred have been finished and occupied. They cost each from one thousand two hundred and twenty dollars to five thousand dollars, those representing the smallest figure being, of course, the most numerous. In each case there is garden in front and a yard behind, with sanitary arrange. ments. The occupants are to become owners in fifty years by payment of
