GERMANY'S WAR DOGS.
How Four footed Soldiers Do Service in
Times of Trouble.

How Four-f footed Soldiers Do Service in
Times of Trouble.
The time-honored injunction to "let
slip the dogs of war" is being provided
with new meaning in Germany. That
country is determined to be prepared
for the next European war, and is leav-
ing no stone unturned to render its
military organization as effective i'll
every branch as possible. Amongst the
preparations in progress TOR the next
paign is a regular system OF dog
drilling. Not only are dogs used by the
ambulance corps to seek out the wound
ed, bring them brandy, water and>soup,
fetch the ambulance attendants and
help to draw the injured on little hand
carts, to the field hospital, all of which
services they perform with wonderful
accuracy, intelligence and skill, but
thew are now attached to some OF the
regiments as regular four-footed sol
diers. In this capacity, the first lesson
thew have to learn is silence. They are
taught to repress the outbreak of bark
ing. bv which they would announce
their presence to an enemy, and to re-
place this mode of signaling by low
growl audible only to their friends.
This is difficult lesson, but more
tedious task is TO 1OiIoN- 1H!e ID ~
teach the wardog that while all
dogs are dogs, men are divided into
friends and enemies, and the way to
distinguish them is by the color of their
trousers. The way this fine distinction
is impressed on their intellects is by
dressing soldiers up in Russian and
French uniforms, and making them
beat and ill-treat the dogs and abuse
them in French and Russian; whereas
soldiers in German uniforms are told OFT
to pet and caress the canine recruits,
and regale them on that deicacy dear
to all being born in the Fatherland-the
sausage. At night the dogs can render
good service at the outposts, their quick
Sense of hearing enabling them to an
nounce the approach of footsteps long
before they have been detected by
duller human ears. The dogs are also
trained to carry dispatches in a little
leather satchel. which is buckled on the
light iron collar they wear. Gray Pom
eranians make the best soldier dogs, on
account of their great muscular
strength, their quickness IN learning,
and their unobtrusive color. For am
bulance service, how ever, Prof. Bun
gartz, the animal painter, who Is much
interested in this branch of the Red
Cross society, and has himself trained
many dogs for it, declares that Scotch
collies are the best breed.

either alone or combined with that Of
affixing metal tags through the shank

ing as showing the strong feeling which
obtains in England of the superiority Of
English meat, and the determination to
have native and foreign meat So clearly
differentiated that the butcher can
practice no imposition on the public by
charging full prices for the imported
article. The fact OF greatest interest,
by the committee was that owing to the
greater thickness of the skin, the
application of cautery to the sides of the

less injury both to skin and flesh than
was the case with the shoulder or legs.
