The Dog Went wrnnn

M. +. Mimnaugh, the popular Pat
ton avenue merchant, owns a very
smart dog.
When Mr. Mimnaugh is short of
apples or other fruits he orders the
dog, Frank, fine setter, to go to a
peighbors store and bring him what
ne wants, and he does.
He was Dragging upon the inteli-
gence of Frank a few days ago to a
lady friend who is a very strong Pro
hibitionist, and said he could give
Frank note to Hill & Shank's meat
market and the dog would go and
get his dinner.
The good lady doubted this, and
Mr.. Mimnaugh wrote the note and
told him where to go and for what.
The dog took the note, listening
attentively to instructions, and to the
disgust of Mr. Mimnaugh trotted di-
rectly to Frank O'Donnell's barroom.
The good lady thinks even the
dogs are being corrupted. --Asheville

Teeth of a shark.

In respect to its dentition the shark
is very remarkable creature. The
white shark has seven rows of teeth,
while other species vary in the num-
Der of rows they possess. It must be
understood, however, that the shark
only uses one row at a time. The
other rows lie down inside the mouth
behind the edge of the jaw, erecting
themselves when it is time for them
to take successfully the place of the
first row. When one observes how
keen edged these incisors are it seems
no wonder that they can bite off a
big rope as readily as if it were pack
thread. Washington Star.

A Doctor for NIeissonier,s Dog.

Here is good story of doctor
and a painters wife. The doctors
name does notappear, but the painter
was Meissonier. Nine. Meissonier
sent for the family physician in a
great hurry. He came, thinking
some illness had overtaken the artist.
But it was not the artist; it was only
lapdog. He pocketed his pride
and attended the patient, who soon
recovered. At the end of the year
the bill came in, but there was no
item for attendance on the dog.
Nine. Meissonier noticed the omission
and told the doctor to charge. He
would not charge; he said he could
not charge, he was not a vet. He
was very glad to be kind to the dog,
etc. The lady insisted. Well, said
the doctor, the hinges of my garden
gate are rusty; ask NJ. MISSIONER to
bring his brush and paint them for
me.-Pau Mall Gazette.

Queer TRICKS of pefectixe sirht.

Almost any nearsighted man could
write an interesting chapter on the
queer tricks which his eyes have
played upon him. Such a chapter
would include experiences like this:
The other day a gentleman who is
not SO very shortsighted was aston
ished to see a man going along Wash
ington street accompanied by a red
calf, which was gambling by his
side. It would be impossible to de-
scribe the comical appearance to the
beholder of this prancing calf on the
sidewalk of Washington street. The
gentleman looked on in wonder as
the man and the calf drew nearer,
and then he saw that the animal was
merely setter dog. Only an in
slant before he would have sworn
that he saw the beast as plainly as
he did now; but then it was calf,
and now it had undergone sudden
transformation into an Irish setter.

Wonders of the Trance State.

Professor William James, well
known Harvard instructor, in speak
ing of the trance condition and
frances in general, says: II know
woman who in her frances knows
facts which altogether transcend her
possible normal consciousness facts
about the lives of people whom she
never saw or heard of before. I
make this statement deliberately,
knowing the 1iabilities to which it
exposes me. My own impressions
are that the trance condition is an
immensely complex and fuctuating
thing, into the understanding of
which we have hardly begun to pen
citrate, and concerning which any
very sweeping generalizations are
sure to be premature. st. Louis

Copper Came from Cyprus.

The word copper is generally adj
mitted to be derived from Cyprus, as
it was from that island that the
ancient Romans first procured their
supplies. In those remote days
Cyprus and Rhodes were the great
copper districts; and even in our own
day new discoveries of copper ore,
especially the beautiful blue and
green ores-from which the metal is
so much more easily obtained than
from the copper pyrites and other
sulphuretted ores of Cornwall--are
being made nearly every year in the
islands Of the Mediterranean. Cham

The CRYSTAL Palace.

At one period during the building
of the Crystal Palace some 2, 900 work
men were engaged in it's erection,
and some idea of its vastness may be
obtained from the fact that 9,642
tons of iron were used in the frame
work, besides LIS tons of bolts and
rivets and 1913 tons Of nails. Were it
possible to place the panes of glass
employed end to end, they would be
found to extend PAP miles. For heat
ing purposes alone there are fifty
miles of piping under the floor and
ten miles more of pipes carrying the
water supply to the fountains. When
the complete fountain system is in
full go, as many as 11,7SS jets are
playing and throwing 100, 900 gallons
into the air every minute. One g. at
display consumes 5000, 900 gallons of
water.-London Tit-Bits.
