DESERVED TO MARRY.
This is About a Girl Who Has n
Long Head.

Ihere was young man who had a
girl friend. He went to see her at ir-
regular intervals. He made his last call
one day last week. She had some we'd
ding cake from the .nuptials of friend
of hers, and she WAS telling him of d
new way she had discovered for finding
out whether you were g,.ing to get mar
ried within a year..
II will take some % ,he cake She
said, land put it in this envelope, and
will take seven slips of paper and write
on six Of them the names of six girls
you, know. any one. of whom you are
likely to marry. Then / will put the
cake and give the whole thing to you
Now, you must take it and put it under
your pillow when you go home. In the
open your eyes, you must take out one
slip. Do this for seven mornings in sue
cession, and on the last slip will be the
name of the girl you are sure to marry.
If the blank comes last you will never
marry"
The young man was quite impressed
with the scheme. He took the envelope
and promised faithfully to fulfill all the
at the end of seven days. He went home
and put the envelope under his pillow.
Next morning he drew out a slip, and
on it was the name of the ,Sirl who mad
given the charm to him. He thought
that that was pretty tough luck, for he
really liked the girl very much. He was
out rather late next night, and When ne
awoke he was in a hurry and forgot all
about the charm. When he got home
that night he began thinking the matter
over and wondering who the other girls
were.
He got the envelope and peered into it;
The Slips were all carefully folded and
he could not see a name. Then his curl
osity got the upper hand. He took out
ali the slips and unfolded them. The re-
naming six had names on them and in
each instance the name was that of the
girl who had prepared the charm. He
sat down and thought long and earnest
lv. Then he put on his evening clothes and
went straight up to that girls house.
He stayed a long time, and when he came
away ne was smiling and happy, ana
there is going to be a wedding on the
West Side one of these days!
There is a girl who has long head

THE QUEENS DOGS.
TFrom st. Methodist


The dogs of Windsor castle keep reg
ular hours. They are turned out at
certain time each day for their eXer-
else and sports, and they have NUNS
Der of courts connected with the ken
nels upon which they scamper to and
fro over green lawns. There are UNI
brella-like affairs on these lawns,
where they can lie in the shade if they
wish to, and in some of them there are
pools of water where the dogs can take
bath, and in which they swim and
come out and shake themselves just as
though they were ordinary yellow dogs
rather than royal puppies.
The queen has her favorites among
the dogs, and some of them become
jealous of the attentions she pays to
others. Among those she likes best is
one named Marco This is said to be
the finest Spitz dog in England. 1t has
taken a number of prizes. Marco is an
auburn dog. His hair is of a taWny
red. He weighs just about u pounds,
and he has brighter eyes, quicker mo-
ton, and sharper bark than any other
dog in the kennel. He is just three
years old, and he carries his tail over
his back as though he owned the whole
establishment.
The queens collies are very fine, and
a number of them are white. One of
these is called SNOWFALL, and another
goes by the name of Lily. Another
little dog, an especial favorite with
the queen, weighs just seven and a
half pounds, or no more than the
smallest baby. This is the queens toy
Pomeranian Gina, who is one of the
most famous dogs of the world. Gina
came from Italy, and has won a num-
her of prizes at the dog shows of En-
gland. Gina is very good dog, and
sat as quiet as a mouse while her
photograph was taken not long ago.
Among the other dogs of the kennel
are a number of pugs, and one knock
kneed little Japanese pug, which the
late Lady Brassey, the distinguished
traveller, presented to the queen. There
are big German dachshunds and little
skye terriers, and, in short, every kind
of beautiful dog you can imagine in
these famous kennels. The queen
names all the dogs herself; and near
the kennels is little graveyard where
these pets are buried when they die.

of her youth. One must come to the
