Happy Skye Terrier.

A curious If not wholly pleasing spec
tacle for the typical American, especial
ly the typical American out of a job, is
the aristocratic occupant of splendid
turnout to be seen on upper Broadway
every pleasant afternoon. An open
landau, drawn by two handsome dark
bay horses, elegantly caparisoned; an
athletic looking coachman in light drab,
with red trimmings, and occasionally a
young footman in the same livery That
is the turnout, and it is quite as swagger
a thing as is to be seen in that line about
New York. The carriage is worth not
less than So, 900, and the horses and gold
mounted harness must be worth as much
more, while the coachman and his COM
panion would have brought cool thou
sand apiece before the war, though they
are really white and very English, you
know.
The occupant of this swell establish
ment is thin, consumptive looking in
dividual called by experts in his kind a
skye terrier. Silvered DER with spiky
hair of no particular color, his little
beady eyes clustering from the recesses
of his moppy weakened countenance, his
nose and every other portion of his
anatomical system being invisible, this
insignificant parsonage sits alone on the
back seat, if not grand, at least gloomy
and peculiar.
Within the physical possibilities not
remote from the butchers trade he
would probably be worth ten cents. For
my own purposes | would unhesitatingly
say ten cents a bunch would be an ex-
travagant price for such as he. Yet it
takes five thousand dollar turnout and
an able bodied coachman and footman
to give this poor little "critter'-the pet
pup of some royal American family-his
daily airing. New York Herald.

Advice to Young Artists.

Susan Hayes Ward says to young art
lists: "Stop inventing. Give up your
cherubs, your castles, your moated
oranges, for the live babies, the farm
house and the rail fences that are all
about you. Go to good art school and
test your capacity. There is nothing
better to take the conceit out of one
than to enter large studio. Draw and
continue to draw, but always from a
model and never from imagination,
and if circumstances so hem you in that
you cannot leave home for the large city
studio find good teacher connected
with an accredited school of art who
will teach by correspondence, and do
not presume to open a studio and invite
visitors to buy your pictures until you
have had the training of the schools
You are making grave mistake. Your
work betrays not only immaturity, but
ignorance. You will be ashamed of it
as soon as your eyes are trained. Close
your studio and go to school. ."-Provi-
dence Journal.

Speaking of Thanksgiving it is pity
that it is not more generally observed at
the south than it is. We excuse our
selves by saying that Christmas takes its
place, but it does not; the associations Of
that day are-or should be--of a more
spiritual nature than gratitude for the
supply of our temporal wants during
the year. OF course there are church
services--very slimly attended-and it
is legal holiday, so that business is
generally suspended.
We might take hint from the Puri.
tan custom of making it a day of fam
lily reunions without doing much vio-
lence to the memory of our cavalier
ancestors. A few congregations have
of late years converted it into kind of
harvest home festival, decorating their
churches with grain and fruit, the lat
ter being afterward distributed TO those
to whom it is luxury.-Charleston

We owe our earliest knowledge OF
hypnotism to those wise men of the
East, the Hindoos, to whom we owe
our language, our religion, our phi
losophy and our oriental rugs, as well
as cholera and the opium habit. Who
first in that land of dreams and dirt
made use of hypnotic passes to put
his fellow men into involuntary sleep
is as obscure a parsonage in history
as the discoverer of the oyster, and
as unimportant, for, while we enjoy
all the material advantages of the
discoveries of these unknown heroes
of invention, we ara not obliged to
consider the claims of envioue
contestants every year, as we haye
to do in the case of the invention of
the telephone and the discovery of
America. New York World.

why He Smiled a sickly Smile.

One Of the grain operators on the Chi
cago board Of trade was married a short
time ago, and of course the first time he
appeared ON the board after his honey
moon he was subjected to many con-
gratulations and much good natured
bantering. One Of his friends, after
congratulating him, suddenly reached
over and took long brown hair from
his shoulder.
"Looks bad in a married man, Tick
err" he exclaimed, holding it up to the
light.
"Oh, that's all right" said Ticker
smiling; ''it's my wife's."
'No, no, that won't do" responded
the friend; "your wife's hair is darker
than that"
This made Ticker trifie angry, and
he exclaimed excitedly: II tell you it is
my wife's. guess l know my wife's
hair when see it,"
"Well, you certainly ought to-" said
the friend, gazing intently at it. "But
are you sure it's your wife'sY"
"Sure? OF course am. Why do you
ask?"
"Oh, thought perhaps there might
be mistake. You see, found it on
Browns shoulder just before saw you"
Ticker's smile was sickly one.--New
York Mercury.

There IL we'll known gentleman IN
this city who. when Young man NJ col.
iege. felt IN love with q professors
daughter. OF coufss there IL nothing
remarkable about that Doth were
young. and she was beautiful The pro-
fessor was poor. but hc was wise. There
is nothing remarkable about that. Wis.
dom IA often associated with poverty,
especially that sort Of wisdom that comes
from books. The young man was also
poor, but he was not wise--be wanted 20
marry the girl right of. And there was
nothing remarkable about that. But
the poor, wise professor told the poor,
uiwise young man;
"Go forth; go and do something.
don't care what you do, but go and do
IL. Then well see about the girl. II
she really thinks she can't get along
without you she won't mind waiting u
year or two. II she won't wait you
won't want her."
The poor, unwise young man filed the
usual demurrer, but it was promptly
overruled. Then he went forth.
The first thing he did was to go and
buy package of cigarettes and sit down
and think. He did 30 much thinking Of
this kind that he nearly starved to death.
Then he tried something else and picked
up two dollars week and twenty dol
lars worth of self respect. But he didn't
see any opening for matrimony and tried
something else This too failed. Then
he tried something else.
The professor said he was a shiftless
fellow--a rolling stone.
The daughter said he was noble
young fellow and would get there.
The young man had that girl in his
eye all the time. Yet he seemed to mon
key with the great world. He tried lit
erature--newspaper literature.
The professor said that settled it.
So did the girl.
It did settle it, for the young man,
now unwise and young no longer, grew
to fame and wealth as the head of
great syndicate, makes $4,000 a year,
married the professors daughter and
hires the professor at fifteen dollars a
week to kill copy.-New York Herald

II IN the line ~ Improvement that should
long since have been resolved upon, aud
onght now 10 We adopted The ordi.
nance provides thnt any person desiring
10 nse any wheeled vehicle for traffic
npon the streets IN Chicago shall first
obtain license therefor, and that the

clee. and this Ia all that is 10 be charged
for wagons and trucks having tires Of

the weight they bear. But for tires Of
"a inches or less the cost Of the license
Is 81 for one ton and rises from that TO
800 for four tons. For the latter weight
on tires Of and Ga inches the fee is
$50, and for inches SO, smaller weights
being charged for In proportion.
The ordinance properly provides that
the weight Of the vehicle shall be counted
In with that of the load, but is defective
IN not pointing out some way In which
It may be ascertained IL the licensee tells
The truth when he applies for the Ii
cense, or IL his employees load the vehicle
beyond the specified weight without his
knowledge. Surprising that he or they
put load of 1900 or 1000 pounds on
wheels licensed to bear only half ton.
who is to tell that the terms of the ordi
nance are being evaded, perhaps in hun
dreds of cases every day?
1t would be well to provide that every
licensed vehicle must carry a plainly
posted statement of the load it is allowed
TO bear on its wheels. and that it shall
be the duty of police officers or others to
watch for infringements on the limit so
stated on the vehicle. The policeman
should be instructed that in every case
where he thinks he has good reason to
believe the load exceeds the prescribed
maximum he shall cause the vehicle to
proceed to the nearest available. scale
and there be weighed. If he finds the
total load to exceed the limit, it should
then be his duty to take the offender to
the nearest police station and enter com
plant against him, so that the law can
deal with tho person responsible for
breach of the ordinance.
By these means the taxpayers will have
insured to them the preservation of such
pavements as have been put down in
good shape; there will be an incentive to
insist upon the proper performance of
contracts for paving, and the taxpayers
will be saved enormous sums that are
now spent in repairing and relaying
street pavements years before they ought
to be worn to the point of repair or re-
newal
1t is notorious that the vehicle which
has narrow tires in proportion to its
heavy load breaks up pavements rapidly
and badly, and is the most destructive
to those which would be most desirable
were it not for the mischief wrought by
narrow tires and causeless tearing up of
the streets.-Chicago Tribune.
