for the past decade, If ever. The Garden
theatre in New York city, it is said,
has been packed five consecutive months
of the past year with admirers OF this
superb organization, that give
most perfect rendition OF this
ever beautiful robin Hood. :"
The artists have never appeared to bet
Ter advantage in or city and each OF the
fayorites received most cordial welcome
from their auditors The artist managers,
Barnabee. Karl & Macdonald, should first
receive the praise due for the artistic per-
formance. They have given "Robin

beautiful settings, and have spared no ex-
pense in giving firgt-olass presentation.

What Dog stories Lack.

Presumably wholly satisfactory dog
story has yet to be written. 1t is pather
strange that SO faithful, SO beloved, q
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, weare compelled
to set it down as 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
bauld is said to have written the stdog
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, it is at best
fragmentary, and we must confess that
we do not share that enthusiasm which
is popularly expressed over it.
1t can be- taken for granted that no
body but lover Of the dog will write Of
the dog The fault that we have to find
with stories about dogs is their inyari-
able lack Of tenderness. When the dog
comes to die, his biographer invariably
dismisses that event with casual Poor
old doggy! He has gone where good dog
gies go-the good old doggies' heaven"
1t is as if the biographer were ashamed
to speak what his heart prompts; as II
he were controlled by that same curious.
awkward wicked sense of pride which
makes the simple fellow feign snicker
or laugh during the progress Of an emo
tional drama, at the very moment, too.

being superior in many respects to those
Of leather These belts are made from
pure linen stock, and are of any desired
thickness, width OF length, having also q
driving power equal to any other of equal
surface, and while it is not claimed for
them that they are adapted to all kinds of
work, they are found 60 serve well as
straight driving belts of not less than five
inches in width.
Where they have been tested side by
side with leather belts for strength and
durability, they are alleged to have proved
equally satisfactory, adhering very closely
to the pulley, generating no electricity
while running, being also flexible and
unaffected by temperature within ordinary
limits, though there is one place in which
they cannot be used, and that is where
they have to run in water, or where they
would be constantly subjected to moisture.
It is admitted that this kind Of betting Is
best adapted to heavy driving belts, and
for this purpose it is not only much the
cheapest material, but when once in posi-
ton will run until worn out.--New York
