The name bloodhound is rather blood
curdling and suggests Uncle Toms cabin and
runaway slaves Their ferocity is fictitious,
for the bloodhound man trailer when finding
his game displays the greatest pleasure. They
are noble, dignifed beasts-the Chesterfield of
the dog family.
Each year thousands Of dollars are expended
in foreign dogs. One breed this year has dis
taneed all others in popularity. 1t is the
Russian wolfhound. He is not well known
In this country, but is rapidly making
friends. He resembles the English grey
hound in general outline with long fringy hair
and small intelligent ewes. In Russia these
dogs are the friends of the peasant and are OF
great service In minding the hocks.
