A Louisville Dog That swear..

A Louisville railroad man has a doc that distinguishes the days of the week and different railroad trains. On days when Midget's owner makes his regular trips the dog accompanies him to the station, but never attempts to board the train-just stays on the platform, an in- terested spectator, and wags his tail cheerfully as the train moves out. On other days and other trains-suburban trains to Parkland or Pewee Valley he hops aboard without hesitation, evil dently aware that the ride in prospect is one that he may share. Midget swears too; swears like 8 pirate.
 The family understand him, but they report that his language is too terrible to be repeated. When things don't go to suit him, he retires under a bed or sofa and lies there rolling off oaths of fearful description for hours. A young man who was attentive to Midget's young mistress unintentionally offended him, but the dog got even. He actually broke off the match. He knew the regu- lar nights on which the youth appeared. and at an early hour would ensconce himself under the parlor sofa, from which coign of vantage he would growl forth such volleys of personal and pro- fane remarks that the prospective lover became intimidated and ceased his at tentions. In recognition of these serv- ices Midget's master gave him beauti- full silver charlottesville Courier Journal.

HOW CATS OFTEN SPREAD DISEASE.
Mothers Should Teach Children Not to xX.xdIa Cfrarasxe A rairaals

Handle Strange Animals.
 Since have spoken in defense of the dog. let me say something more with relation to that other favorite household companion of man-the cat. I would call your attention to the fact that the cat is beast far more useful to mankind than the dog. Without the latter we could get along, but if we had no cats we should have continual plague of rats and mice, which would overrun the cities and devour the crops and small live stock of the farmers.
 At the same time you may set it down an indisputable truth that the domestic cat is 8 prolific source of great variety of diseases. It breeds them and dis seminates them-skin troubles partic- ularly. It carries about with it the con- tagion of diphtheria, one of the most fa- tai of human complaints, and it is seri- ously suspected of helping to SOW the germs of consumption. A trouble akin to ringworm which attacks the scalp and causes the hair to fall out is frequently conveyed by cats. Likewise it is with scarlet fever, which, when it is in house. is always likely to be scattered abroad by the pet pussies of the estab- ishment.
 The way of it is this; When there Is sickness in g house, old cloths are apt to be used for various purposes. These are commonly thrown afterward into some out of the way place, like the corner of a.closet. Suppose that there is 8 tabby about that is on the point of bringing into the world a litter of kittens. Fe male cats are constantly having kittens as you know, being among the most pro life of animals. She searches for SC Questered nook for her accouchement and is likely to make her bed of just such lot of old rags as have described.
 As 8 natural consequence, not only is the mother cat infected as to her fur With the contagious disease, but all of her kittens are likewise. The latter are fondled by the children. Pathogenic germs seem to find a most favorable breeding ground in. the hair of cats. As result the complaint is spread. Un- fortunately the infection is not limited to the house. It is spread abroad by the cats, which are notorious stragglers, Thus before many days have passed there is an endemic of scarlet fever or what not in the neighborhood, Nobody can imagine how it got about. Little Johnny dies of diphtheria, and nobody dreams that he contracted it by picking up a strange cat,
 Children have way of picking up cats and holding them to their faces to caress them. That accounts for many l.
 called ringworm. It is the same way with other skin troubles that are con- tagious. Cats as we'll as dogs are lia- ble to tuberculosis of the lungs, other wise known as consumption. That they communicate 1t to human beings islnore than suspected.-Washington Star.

A Descrter's Good Fortune.

A deserter is not always deserter, even though branded with great big "D," according to the laws of Queen Victoria's realm. Some time ago a we'll known English resident of Wilmington, Del, applied to the British consul here for pension, claiming to have served his country ill an Australian regiment. He admitted having had his breast branded with red iron, with the letter "D," which marked him forever as a de- serter, but claimed to have rejoined his regiment after his punishment and served out the term of enlistment. The British home office found that he was right, and the pension has come to him after long wait.-Phila.lelphia Rec ord,

HOG LICENSES.

The trustees at their weekly meet
ing Monday took up the matter OF
hog licenses. They decided to grant
licenses to all parties where their
neighbors are not adjacent and re-
fused to allow any hogs kept in the
thickly settled parts of the village.
No licenses were granted 10 the
livery stable keepers, most of whom
had applied for them. Some of the
parties who have been refused a
license talk of keeping hogs just the
same, while Others say they will not
keep them. The trustees did what
appeared to be their duty and we
believe the majority of the citizens
will back them up.
