CANNES in the eastern part of town is
watched with interest by the suffering
neighbors. One is little black terrier
whose greatest accomplishment is a
shrill yelp intended for bark. The
other is a noble hunter, with soft
brown and white coat and big, intelli-
gent eyes. The household where the
black terrier holds sway was recently
alarmed to discover that the little fell
low seemed quite spiritless, forgot to
bark, and lay on the rug stretching
and signing feebly. AS the days went
by he displayed all the symptoms OF
typhoid fever, of which there was a
case next door. A doctor was called in
and pronounced it the real thing. Sc
now the little black dog is being
nursed and petted back to health with
as much care as if it were a child.
The owner of the other dog is busy
man, and has no time to go hunting;
besides, he is already in possession OF
two other dogs; so he decided to part
with his hunter. He made up his mind
to give it to man who lived several
miles on the other side of the city, and
spent one. afternoon taking his gift
over to his friends house. The next
morning, when he opened his front
door, in walked the faithful hunter,
looking for the world as if he expected
a welcome. But his owner was not to
be so easily baked. Taking the dog,
he walked to the station and put it in
charge of a friendly conductor on a
through train to Richmond, with in
structions not to let it escape

Wise Thoughts.

First keep thyself in peace, and then
shalt thou be able to make peace
among others.
A passionate man draweth even good
into evil and easily believeth the worst
A good and peaceful man turneth all
things to good.
Thou knowest well how to excuse
and color thine own deeds. but art not
willing to receive the excuses of others
Behold, how far off thou art yet
from true charity!
1t is naturally pleasing to associate
with the good and gentle, and every
one willing enjoyeth peace, and loveth
those that agree with him. But to live
in peace with such as are perverse or
contrary, is truly graceful or COM
