Feeding the Pet Dog.

Petdogs should never have but one full
meal day, and that about 8 or Q o'clock
in the evening. A little milk or broth
should be given in the morning, but
nothing else. They should have dish
of mashed greens, well boiled tripe.
lightly boiled liver once or twice week;
not full meal, but mixed with their
food.
Remember that their food must be
nourishing; for example, tough ends Of
steak and bone pieces boiled until you
can remove the bones, then salted and
thickened with potatoes or stale bread.
Terriers must have meat of some kind
often. Never give any dog chicken
bones, there is nothing much more dan
gerous. About once month get joint
of the neck of beef and let the dog have
the bones after cooking.
Puppies should be fed four or five
times day on boiled milk. When two
months old bread may be added, or q
little very finely mashed potatoes; never
meat until six months old, and then very
sparingly until they are year old.
Feeding meat to young dogs causes dis.
temper. They may have small, safe
bones after three months. If they ge,
diarrhea, give a little cheese. Mrs.
Theodore Wright in Ladies' Home Jour.

Ineligible Price Marks.

Very few stores now adhere to the old
plan of cipher marking. Experience has
proved that a majority of customers
prefer goods to be marked in plain fig
ures, no one liking the idea Of two sets
Of figures unless he is sure he is among
the favored ones who get the benefit of
the lower scale. It is said to be the
practice with the medical fraternity of
some towns to grade their charges to
patients according to the style Of house
in which they live, and the same idea
prevails so much as to retail stores that
ladies have been known to send servants
down to stores because they could get a
larger discount.
Other ladies are careful never to dress
very we'll when shopping, and this shows
how firmly the impression prevails that
genuine one price store is o noveltya
The easiest way to get over this j. q

The Economical Mule,

The mule is ready to begin work two
or three years earlier than the horse. He
can be put to pretty heavy pulling when
he is 8 years old, and from that time un-
til he is 40, If he has fair treatment and
does not meet with an accident, he is
not likely to lose any time. He is not
subject to the many ailments to which
the horse is victim, at least not to any
great degree. He lives about twice as
long and his actual period of usefulness
is nearly three times as long, for the horse
is really not fit for heavy service until
he is years old, or after he is 20, while
mule will often do good service for
forty years, and they have been known
to work fifty, according to one writer,
without being turned out at any time
during all that long period.
Like the ass, the mule will live upon
next to nothing, and during all his fort
years Of hard service mule will not re-
quire-and generally does not get--half
the feed necessary to sustain q horse
during his much shorter period Of use-
fulness. Jack will thrive ON what is out

two of corn, and ON such food will out.

The Government Time Service.

The Western Union company earns
about 81, ,0OO,O annually from its cleo
trio clock service, charging fifteen dol
lars year for setting each clock at noon
daily. The time sold thus profitably it
gets from the government for nothing,
but anybody can have the same priv
ilege free of charge by putting an in
strument and wire into the observa-
tory. Captain MoNair, the naval officer
in charge, is anxious to furnish time
ball service to private individuals and
concerns in every seaport city, only de-
manding as condition that he shall
have return wire furnished him in or
der that he may publish corrections in
the newspapers. Such time balls would
enable mariners to correct their chro-
nometers. 1t was chiefly for this pur-
pose, in fact, that the time service was
originally established. - Washington

CHINESE LOTTERIES.

The Police Waging War on Such
Gambling Concerns.
The police are making determined
effort to put a stop to the selling of
Chinese lottery tickets and have been
making it SO exceedingly warm for the
celestial dealers in this species of mer-
ohandise lately, that the heather are
becoming very shy of selling tickets to
white men.
Yesterday five Cinnamon were up all
charged with selling tickets. They all
entered plea of not guilty, and their
cases were set for later in the week, with
$50 cash bail up in each case.
The extent to which this lottery busi-
ness is carried on in this city is surpris-
ing, the amount handled by the
Chinese companies managing these af-
fairs running yearly to enormous
amounts. The lotteries have three
drawings daily, and manage to collect a
goodiy sum of cash each time.
The Chinese themselves are liberal
patrons of the games, for anything in
the shape of gambling will catch 4
Ohinaman, but the amount that is con-
tributed by white people largely in
creaees the profits OF the business, and
as the lottery companies allow large
commissions, the temptation to make a
few dollars is usually stronger than the
regard for the strong arm of the law.
The liberal sized fines which are be-
ing doled out to the dealers, however,
are having a very beneficial effect, and
it is becoming hard for strangers to
purchase lottery tickets.
