reflection.

The English mastiff is quite an old
favorite, and though eclipsed by his
more snowy rival, the st. Bernard, his
sapacity and qualifications as guard
and watch dog made him valuable TO the
old families who had their country
nlaces. An instance Of the mastiff's
value and faithfulness was recently rec
orded at Boston, where a mastiff pre-
vented a mad dog from biting child he
was guarding and paid the penalty with
his own life.
The German mastiff. or Great Dane,
the companions of Prince Bismarck
have many admirers in America. These
are the dogs that most resemble the
udogs of war" OF the ancients.
The monarchs OF dogdom have one
more representative, the almost forgot
ten Newfoundland. Dogs called by this
name are found everywhere, but they
are generally large black mongrels, with
scarcely any Of the characteristics OF the
dogs that came from the islands OF the
the American coast, and which are still
deservedly popular in England.

The terrier family will take up large
number Of the places at the coming show,
being represented by numerous collec-
tion of different varieties. The bull
terriers are, as their name implies,
combination Of the bulldogs tenacity
and courage with the nimbIeness OF the
terrier. Their ears ara clipped ana
stand up with tapering points, when IN
tensifes their expression. 49,,
The long. low and crooked-leg little
fellows OF German origin, called dach-
sbnnde. must also be classified with the
terriers. for such they really are. They
are very usefuli In keeping the vineyards
of their native country free from YER
min. The huud is frequently taken 70

for dog. One would have TO walt long
time 10 hear one of this variety bay as
do hounds. -,
The fox terriers got good lead on all
the other varieties at the start and are
now found everywhere. Their pluck
and grit have made for them many
friends. While little encouragement IS
offered to others, they come In Tor grand
challenge cups. stud-dog stakes, pro-
duce stakes and many specials OF value
irish terriers, black-and-tan, Welsh
terriers and Bedlingtons will be repre-
sented: also Dandie Dinmonts, those sir

Skve terriers also come'irom the "iand

tatiyes.

The sheperd's help, the sheep dog and
the Scotch collie, with his long coat ana
gay carriage, will be sure TO attract
much attention. The collie has become
more or less ornamental as well as use
ful. Queen Victoria has q white one
which was presented TO her by an En-
gish breeder. But she still devotes
more attention to old Noble. and, al
though old and blind. he always comes
In for kind word.
In recent years the bulldog has grown
in popular favor. At the shows many OF
the most fashionably attired of both
sexes may be seen admiring Harper, the
Craven Image or some other noted dog
OF this variety. II even Il statue Is
erected TO the nineteenth century swell
of New York the sculptor should not
forget the small piece of lumber called
a cane and the British bulldog, for none
would be quite complete without such
Accomplishments. That there are many
genuine admirers OF the breed Is indi-
Gated by the long list of special prizes
offered. The Grand Trophy is valued
az no less than $3.50 and is given by L.
l.. Park. The Porter cup is worth 500
and the puppy bowl the same amount.
Besides these there are numerous cups
and medals. Though his Old vocation
of bull-baiting is gone, the bulldog Is
used for the improvement In courage oil
other varieties. In England he Is still
greatly valued.

A Boston Idyl.

"My dear, l wish you would 60 and
shovel off the sidewalk"
The words rang clearly out on the
chill atmosphere OF the furnace heated
room. In the silence that followed the
shivering of the timbers might have
been plainly heard with an ear trum-
pet.
81 shall do nothing of the sort, Mrs.
Wings"
With these words the silence was
broken. Mrs. Wings scarcely trusted
her ears. She thought the frost might
have bitten them.
'Dld l understand you TO say, Mr.
Wings" said she, her voice growing
colder as her breath fell in large frozen
chunks to the ground, ''that you refuse
to shovel off our sidewalk?"
Precisely. 1t is impossible that l
should do it,"
"What? When you know you did 1t
only Yesterday, and now that there has
only been a slight sprinkle Of snow you
decline-pah! you're absurd, Mr..
Wings"
"Not at all. You are absurd. To
stand there and say that / shovelled off
the sidewalk yesterday! When you
know very we'll that that sidewalk Is
made Of cement and weighs quite a
little, besides being a tritie hard to re-
move. Now, if you meant that l should
shovel off the snow
And then Mrs. Wings regretted that
she had ever married Boston man.

The Rubies are red. as the name i'm
plies: n few white hairs on these are not
so great a fault as In the case OF the
King Charles. In other respects they
are alike. This also applies 10 the
Prince Charles, that differ only In color,
which should be black, white and tan.
The japanese spanials are quite DIFF
ferent In many respects. The quaint
little Japs have not got ears that fall
into everything. In japan they are pro-
duced three pounds in weight and the
bellies there carry them In their open
sleeves wherever they go. Black and
white Is the prevailing color and true
bred ones are rare and expensive.
Yorkshire terriers, with their long
silky coats, longer than the dogs are
high, are boudoir pets and require n
great amount OF devotion. The tlnts
are beautiful; the feet should be rich
tan, the face marked to correspond, the
head a silver and the rest steel color.
They are very bright and active.

How to Keep a Pledge,
Tsras SiTtingS

Pete Fowler, although somewhat ad-
dicted to drink, had considerable liter
sry taste. He was great borrower OF
books, but he never returned any, owing
more to carelessneSs than TO anything
else. His friends had frequently got
him to sign the pledge, but he in
variably went back on it. He was COM
planning one day to friend OF his ina
bility to keep his pledge, when the latter
said:
cpl tell you, Pete, how you can keep
your pledge" ,
GLOW can keep the pledge?" asked
Pete, swinging helplessly to the lamp
post.
Easy enough. The next time you
borrow book put the pledge in II.

provided they first had their paws
closely shaved. The graceful and SYM
metrical English greyhound is the best
known OF this breed. In that country
prior to Cromwell's time the aristocracy
alone were permitted TO keep them.
The strong, fleet and resolute Scottish
deerhound, the favorite Of Sir Waiter
Scott, has many admirers in America.
The Russian wolfhound was unknown
here until within the last few years.
But now these shaggy, graceful hounds
have been introduced and are being
tried on American wolves. In Russia
to-day they are almost solely In the
hands OF the mobiles and they are Kept
chiefly for their pastlme.
