This Dog Knew a Good Thing.

1t would be quite impossible for any liv-
ing being, it would seem, to be insensible
to the charms Of camp life. One morn
ing when the Listener was in camp, q
queer looking black dog of uncertain race,
but broad between the eyes, like all intelh-
gent dogs, suddenly popped into the place,
evidently upon some journey around the
lake. He looked about him in astonish-
ment, and then sat down and looked
again. Then he settled instantly down,
in sort of glad, grateful way, which
was as much as to say, "This is exactly
the sort of place that I've always been
looking forr' Not another step did he
stir on the journey.
He adopted the camp from that mo-
ment and everybody in it. Nobody
knew where he came from or to whom
he belonged. He was total stranger to
the people who lived on the farm not
far away. He slept in front Of the tent
at night, and barked at any stranger who
came that way, and answered amiably
to the name of Liberty Moses. No doubt,
when the camp broke up, he went back
to his more civilized home, wherever it
was, but az long as that charming spot
remained in existence there was no other
place for him.-Boston Transcript.

An Enjoyable Way to Take Tea.

There are people who get more out Of
life than others by sort of philosophy
Of contrast or change. The listener,
being invited to tea not long since, found
the table set under the apple trees just a
few steps from the kitchen door. There
were several children seated about the
table, expressing by their demure manner
that it was not q novel thing at all ''Oh,
nor said the hostess; we've hardly eaten
dinner or supper in the house for three
weeks If it's a possible thing we set the
table out here or on the piazza at least
There is only one disadvantage, it makes
it harder on the girls. but we all take
hold and help. so that they are as pleased
as we are.
1t was delightful to sit under the trees
that hecked the table cloth with moving
shadows and seemed to add new flavor to
the simple food. The house stood back
from the street Of course, and yet if it
had been near the street there might
have been great gain for the passerby.
It would have given touch Of sociabil-
ity to the street. like that so character

MARRIAGE m AssYRlA.

Rather More q Matter Of Barter There
Than in the Land Of the Free.
Men live on six cents day In Assyria-
Assyrian women are bought and sold,
are made to work with oxen at the pillow,
and have as little liberty as in the days
of Cadmus: Men who pay six dollars a
day to live and ladies who ride to shops
in victorias thought over these things as
they left the Lincoln Park church Sun
day night. Amen Rasi, born on Mount
Lebanon told these things In broken
English.
Amen Rasi Is a tall, handsome Assy-
Ran, with skin as rich as the CHINA
mon silks made at the foot OF the noun
tain on which he was born. he looked
into the curious, bright eyes of girls
and told them that, had they been born
Assyrians in Assyria they could not go
upon the streets unless their faces were
concealed: that they could neither re-
ceive nor make call among women
| without their husbands consent, and
that if at any time, even by accident,
they were seen by any man or in any
way recognized no one would marry
| them.
He said that once two couples-a tall
man and short woman, and short
man and a tall woman-stood before a
priest to be wed. The priest placed the
tall man and tall woman and the short
man and short woman together, and
none of the four knew whether it was
right or not, neither of them knowing
the other. But the parents hastily OBJ
jected, and placed the tall man by the
short woman and the short man by the
tall woman, as that was the way Of the
contracts.
Then Mr.. Rasi showed how these con-
tracts were made. He left the pulpit
and presently man wrapped up in rich
Assyrian raiment went up and sat upon
the floor. Mr.. Rasi came back and
squatted beside him.

"Bah! can buy 100 women for 50

"But no little one."
"Oh, think So"
"Well. you can't have mine for cent
less"
II pay"
But even then Isaac did not get the
little one, because few minutes later
Mr.. Rasi returned as another man, and
by doubling the price secured the girl
for his son Jacob.
Then Amen Rasi looked at the young
men, whose patent feathers cost them
!; seven dollars. and told them that people
} in Assyria paid fifty cents for suit OF
clothes The common people, he said,
paid three cents for twenty-five pounds
J of cabbage and four cents for five pounds
of turnips. Fifty loaves Of bread were
turned out at baking, and men some
times ate four and five loaves at meal
