Dogs and

Apropos Of the recognition Of pictures
by dogs, i think you may be interested
In the two following facts which came
under mn notice q few years ago. A
sagacious but quite u~neducated old ter
her came with his master to call for
me. and coiled himself ON the hearth
rug while we talked. Turning himself
round In the Intervals OF sluInbers his
eye caught an OIL painting just over his
head "a life-size halflength OF a gentle
mani. He Immediately sat up. showed
his teeth and growied, not once, but
continually, as both angry and mortt-
fed that neither eyes nor nos had Civ
en- him notice Of the arrival OF q strang-
er. The next instance was similar, ex-
cept that the chief actor was a young,
intelligent collie, who. ON the sudden
discovery Of q man looking at him from
the wall, barked long and, f~uricusly.
In both instances. after their excite
ment had subsidized, / led the dogs to
look ut another picture similar tn size,
and also OF q gentleman, but neither Of
them would take the smallest notice OF
1t. I need only add that the picture
which the dogs appreciated was painted
by Sir Henry Raeburn-the other was

Fr.ctsonnl Electricity.

He had an inventive turn of mind.
He heard his school teacher enthusiasts
tically expoundingg the laws of electri-
city and, as usual, he returned home
bent on experiments and Illustrations.
Little sympathy was shown to him at
home for he had at various times ex-
perimented with disastrous results; at
one time blowing q hole In the side OF
the house; incidentally inturing himself,
and paralyzing the rest Of the family
with terror-the results OF an explosion
from a new gas he was experimenting
with.
He was very quiet indeed this time;
rather too quiet. His mother searching
for the reason, found him In the act
Of rubbing the cats fur In q dark corn
er, with her tooth brush, and her new
comb in ~disagreeable contact with the
feline.
She was very spleeny anyhow and
the cat was not really clean.
Mercy on MS! O dear. @ dear! Ben
Watson, what are you doing, say! do
you know? Ugh! you filthy thing; give
me that comb and brush; now explain
yourself-uuick."

HalIey,s comet is coming back-the
comet which In the year 1866 shed
a celestial splendor over the Norman
conquest and whose terforinspiring
visit was cOmmemorated by the hand
OF Queen Matilda In the Bayeaux tap
estry; the comet that I'm 1456, the year

preparation. has just been issued from
one OF the chief watch towers OF astron-
omy. Prof. Glasenapp announces that
the computing bureau established by
the Russian Astronomical society has
undertaken the calculation OF the true
path of Halley's comet with a view to
predicting the exact date OF the next
~
return. He hopes that astronomers ac-
quainted with unpublished observations
OF the comet will communicate the In
formation Il the society. After its
perihelion the comet was watched re-
treating out into space until May, 1885,
when 1t was finally swallowed from
sight. 1T will be i'm perihelion again
about 1911, but with the great teles-
copes now In existence, and the greater
ones that may then have been con-
struggled, 1t is probable that the comet
win be detected coming sunward q

fact that the labor of computing the
