DOGS GET BORED.
We Blushto Think How Man Has De-
moralized the Faithful Animal.


Some domestic animals can be very
much bored indeed. This capacity seems
to vary with the intelligence of the vic
tim and with the closeness of his relations
to mankind. We may well blush, for in
stance when we think how man has de
moralized the dog We have taught the
dog to be bored. We have corrupted him
so much by our society that he can no
longer depend on himself, or even on other
dogs, for entertainment. A COW, it may
be boldly said, never thinks of being
bored. Give her plenty of grass and the
company of another COW by way of gossip
give her a stream to stand in, and that
cow is happy, as happy as the Buddha
himself. No murmur escapes her lips, no
glance of discomfort shows in her placid
eyes.
The dog, on the other hand, is always
craving for society. A dog has been
known to leave its masters house ana
betake itself TO that of richer neighbor,
who saw moro company and entertained
the great. To please a dog, something
must always be going on To him the
whirl of gayety means life. He is noto-
riously incapable of even taking a walk
by himself. He detests solitude. He
very seldom even takes a walk with an
other dog never, perhaps, except when
there is neighboring wood with rabbits
in it, The dog lives for society and sport,
the sure proof of an idle and ill-occupied
mind
Nature, landscape, in spite Of the Duke
of Argyll, is nothing to the dog. Within
doors, he is always asking to be let into a
room, and then asking to be let out of it,
il he thinks there is better-that is, more
dissipated and frivoloUs-co company else
where The dog who is accidentally shut
out of his masters house at night bowls
till he is let in again; usually next morn
ing with the milk. He keeps all the
parish awake, but never manages to
wakeu his owner. The cause of all this
disturbance is simply ennui and q sense of
social neglect. The dog could be quite
comfortable in the garden, but he feels
THAI he is out Of il, and gives as much
trouble as person who is asking to be
asked to a party.
In a state of nature it is most improba-
Bile that the dog had these offensive in
stincts. A fox, wolf is never bored
when not in confinement; he hunts, he
sleeps, he plays with his cubs. Probably
savages are never bored; at a corrobOree
you 10 not note men leaning against doors,
or rather tree trunks, with an air of I'M
Speakable tedium. They waltz in and en-
joy themselves It is clearly civilization
which produces cnnui, not only in men,
women and children, but even in dogs.

Chrysanthemums at Home

Thousands of individuals will visit the Worlds fair this fall and gaze with eyes full of wonder and admiration at the great chrysanthemums which ftly crown the time of year. They will picture with q sigh of envy what home must be like with plenty of these beauties all around il. Yet few flowers are more easy of cultivation than the chrysanthemum, none repine less with neglect, and none respond more generously to good treat ment.
 Suppose, for instance, you have a small yard with these flowers growing in it. You would like to have some of them to pot of 10 bloom late-wel on till Christ mas, say. Select now a few fine plants and enrich and cultivate the earth care fully around them. Pinch back the first flower buds so that they may not bloom too soon. Nip of likewise the scrubby, scrawny. small shoots from the plant so that it may be thrifty. Then from the first to the middle of September pot prepare them for the late blooming. When the roots are firm. you may let the flower buds grow preparatory to their mission, Then give plenty of light and sufficient water, and the chances are that in early winter you will have a house plant that is thing of beauty whether you have a Worlds fair chrysanthemum or not.
 The Japanese varieties now bid fair to supplant the old hardy ones in the fash ionable taste, but no fringed Japanese blossom. however big and gorgeous, can be more beautiful than exactly some of these brilliant flowers that of old graced the country and village dooryard in au- | tumn
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1893-07-15
Slang.

We knew it! The best slang is Amer lcan, western American at that, we are told by Professor Brander Matthews in Harper's Magazine. Professor Matthews traces out forcefully how slang is first a colloquialism; then. if it has staying qualities, it is after awhile regularly adopted into the language, and the next new dictionary gives it place of honor alongside the verbal Four Hundred, 30 to speak
 Professor Matthews divides slang into four classes. of which we are only con cerned with the two that contribute words permanently to a language. This is one of the ways in which a language grows-by the adoption into it as classic words and phrases of various utterances that began as slang. One class includes the wornout English words that have had long rest-sometimes for centuries and have walked up and come again. The other class embraces the wholly new words and phrases.
 Some of the western Ameri0anisms which the writer believes will stay and become altogether proper are to jump on" or, more emphatic still, to jump on with both feet" To fire out" our au- thor finds, is an old English expression used with precisely its present meaning. But we are astonished that MT. Mat thews appears not to know the origin and meaning of the phrase working the growler," now so commonly heard in our large cities. Originally tramps and beg gars carried an old tomato can for the stale beer they got cheap. The sound of the beer gurgling out of the tin can down the thirsty throat suggested a growl to some imaginative rogue; hence the can was christened the growler. To catch the poetic force of the phrase one has only to recall the sound of water flowing in jets out of a narrow mouthed jug. On the other hand, the writer explains very neatly the source of the expression so puzzling to our British cousins, get ting a jag on." In the west and south a | jag" is a light load of anything. The man who begins to be intoxicated has a moderate load of alcohol to carry; hence
