He did not burn midnight oil, neither

most temperate men / have ever known.
he kept his faculties every day as near
as he could at their best. and life flowed
ON from day to day with an and
. quietness that made his home life not
only pleasant for others. but beautiful in
itself.
His habits were to breakfast about
half past Z. then to work in his garden
In the summer for an hour, and then to
shut himself in his workroom, where he
could be u to be undisturbed until

What Dog Stories Lack.


Presumably a wholly satisfactory dog
story has yet to be written. II is rather
strange that so faithful. 80 beloved, a
friend and companion as the dog has al
ways been to mankind should have SO
little, comparatively. written about him.
When we come to consider that COM
~panionship and loyalty. we are compelled
to set it down rs a remarkable piece of
ingratitude upon the part OF man, not to
made his friend the dog more of a figure
in the literature of fiction. Mrs. Bar
BAUD is said to have written the first dog
story. We have never seen it. The
story of Rab is of course familiar to all.
Yet. however much of a classic it may
have come to be recognized. X is at best
f~ragmentary. and we must confess that
we do no share that enthusiasm which
is popularity expressed over it.
It can be taken for granted that DO
body but Il lover of the dog will write of
the dog The fault that We have to find
with stories about dogs is their invari-
able lack OF tenderness When the dog
comes IL die. his biographer invariably
dismisses tina event with a casual ''Poox

gies go-the good old doggias heaven

These fellows imagine that there 10

fight, and that they can get large sums
for the mere asking. Some of the
schemers are sincerely DESTROYS of as>
sisting, while others are only after
coin.
All the money that the executive
committee of the silver convention
got from the outside was $4,000. In
addition 4 few prominent friends of
silver in New York contributed sums
OF SIS and 40 each toward tho ex.
penses OF tho meeting in that city.
With these few exceptions all the
money used by the committe was
contributed by the members them

committeeman furnished over $1,000
apiece to the cause.

An anomaly Of tho conflict is that

to believe that the salvation Of the
country depends upon the adoption

stated that he ADD the President never

discussions of the money question, in
which Mr.. Carlisle always takes OPP
posite views from those entertained
BY tho President. Soon after tho les,
Inauguration, the President desired
Mr.. Carlisle to issue gold bonds. The
Secretary refused. The President
urged. insisted, and finally com.

| THE CAUSE IN THE sEAPoRTs.
Something very noticeable is the
way the mercantile community is
divided on the silver question. The
importers Of New York, Boston,
Philadelphia, Baltimore and else here
whose trade 10 with either Mexico,
South America, India, China or Japan
almost unanimously prefer the double
standard or the single silver standard.
while al importers, bankers and Others

it would not cost ono. fourth OF ei,he,

And heard the nightingales.
