Self Praise,

Self praise is no recommendation but there are times when one must per. nit a pereon to tell the truth about himself. When what he says is SUD- ported by the testimony of others no reasonable man will doubt his word. Now, to say that Allcock's Porous Plasters are the only genuine and re. liable porous plasters made is not self praise in the slightest degree. They have stood the test for over thirty years, and in proof of thelr merits it is only necessary to call attention to the cures they have effected and to the voluntary testimonials of those who have used them.
 Beware of immitations. Ask for All cocks and let no solicitation induce you to accept substitute.

1t Broke the Dogs Heart.

Pat Carroll, the old-time sport ana
handler of fighting dogs and chickens,
tells a story that may be true and may
not:
II had dog ut one time" said Pat,
chat had q favorite hold. It was the
winner of twenty-five fights, and in
every instance he would grab the left
hind leg of his opponent and never
Loose his hold until tile dog was beaten,
His twenty.third fight, however, proved
Il dog that had never seen, and when
he was placed in the pit noticed TINT
he had only three legs, being minus his
left hind member.
II dropped my dog and encouraged
him, and lie Immediately went for his
usual hold. He made two or three ut
4cmpts to grab whit was left of the
leg, and turned tail and came back to-
ward me. I did what I could to en-
courage him to 60 on with the fight,
but he wouldn't bulge an inch, and
finally he jumped the pit and ran home.
For three days tried to get him out
of the house, but all he wanted to do
was to lie down and moan. On the
fourth day he died, and engaged q
veterinary surgeon to dissect him, and
he said the dog died Of a broken heart,
caused by my having matched him
against q dog that I had never seen
aud minus his left hind leg. The de-
ceptiOn was too great on the dog, and
I never made another match after
that until had seen what I was up
against." -Philadelph Call

GENTLEMAN BROWN.

A Benevolent Dog Who Cared for
His yagrant Brothers.
Brown was simply large dog, Who
was SO strong, SO fearless, SO intelli-
g.Lt and SO active in affairs that he
was .ccnsidcrd, the champion Of tho
town. w.
He could thrash any dog round all tut,
and always did it when 1t was ncces-
sary.
But he was extremely kind and be-
oeIelent. He showed great kindness to
tiamp dogs, and protected many a
wretched little vagaboni. AMI saw him
safely out Of the town in good condi-
ton.
One day he brought a specially bad
specimen home with him. He On no

room where the family were ut dinner,
the wretchcd little tramp dog at his
heels.
He looked up at his master wagged
his tail, asking f1r something to eat.
A plate of food was set down and tho
little dog snatchcd it ravcnocsly.
Brown seemed to think that was all
right. He did not offer to touch the

he asked for another plateful and had
his own dinner.
He kept the little dog for quite a
while, always permitting him to cat
first. At night lie took the dog into Ills
kcl mel, himself sleeping outside.
He was not ut all intimate with the
dog. but treated him as a visitor, not
ut any time as a friend. The tramp
finally went on his way, strong and
well, and rs plump and sleek us any
dog need be. What was said between
these two dogs both at meeting and
parting would be very interesting to

"Nothing to Speak Of"

The youth stood moment, dazed.
Then he fed aud walked the streets
for four hours with quick, nervous

muttered.
With resolute face he proceeded to

SURPRISED THE ENGLISH Wis.
ITOR.

The Severe Criticisms Exchanged by
Partisans at IL Washington BAN
quet.
I. NJ. Weston, who is one Of the chief
pillars of the Michigan Democracy,
though he originated in the Republican
State of Maine, and who used to be
mayor Of Grand Rapids, and. Of late
president Of the Michigan board of
worlds fair managers, was chatting
with his intimate friend, Private Sec
rotary Thurber, the other evening ut
the Arlington, says the Washington
Post. The conversation turned on the
peculiarities of some specimens Of the
genus Briton who find their way to
these shores and the difficulty they cx-
periencc in getting at correct UNDER
standing Of our institutions.
II shall never forget" said Mr.. Wes-
ton, ~ banquet that I attended ut
John Chamberlin's some time ago,
which an Englishman of some note in
Ills country graced by his presence.
The force bill was up for discussion in
congress Mt the time, and, Of course,
was u general topic Of talk everywhere.
The stranger, who sat next to me,
seemed rather worried by the earnest
ness with which the dinner party de-
batcl the subject, and said to me in a
confidential way: I can't understand
why you Americans seem never to talk
about anything but politics. We choose
other matters at social gatherings in
my country-art, letters, women,
horses, anything except politics; and
for the life Of me can't make out
what it is that your rival parties are
contending over.'
ut happened that in the course of
the evening some speeches were called
for, and among those who responded
was Hallet Kilbourn, who delivered a
glowing euloglum on the Republican
party, reciting Its origin. its great tri-
umphs the deeds of its famous leaders,
and. lambasting the Democrats for a
thousand sins. Others spoke in some
what similar vein, until ut last It was
discovered that l was the only Demo.
crat present, and nothing would do but
that the solitary exponent of Democ.
racy should lift his voice III defense of
his assailcd party. 1t was done with
all the vigOr ut the command of the
speaker, and entering into the spirit
of the occasion, branded the Repub.
licans as the perpetrators of a long
series Of crimes against the people,
stigmatized them as the party of the
classes versus the masses, and all that
sort Of thing that is often heard in
heated campaigns.
Everybody, except the gentleman
from London, took the speeches at their
real worth. He listened as one en-.
| tranced and understood them as meant
seriously. When l took my seat be.
side him again he seemst wrapped in
thought, and for several minutes said
nothing. Presently he leaned over and
whispered In my car:
81 am glad we don't have any such
politics III England, for d me ii
our politicians were as rascally a lo)
Us yours, they'd all get in prison.

IL IL now IN operation ON the Streets

The latest development of electric
traction is the new electric parcel and
advertising van fer ordinary roads. now
in use in London. By a careful ar
rangcment the working parts are re.
duced to minimum. leaving the whole
Of the interior Of the body free for
passenger or goods. The accumulators
supplying the motive power are s,,s-
pended in special carrier beneath the
body Of the yam, so that rcclmrged
set may be substituted in two minutes
without interfering with the contents of
the van. The steering gear, which il
of the greatest importance, is said to
be satisfactory, the driver having per-
feet control Of the vehicle. The van
is also lighted by electricity, and is con-
trolled by single switch, giving six
degrees of speed. An estimate shows
that the cost Of working van by
electricity, equal to a two-horsc vehicle,
including charging, maintenance, etc,
is about cents per mile. The car
runs about thirty miles with each
charge.-Philadelphia Record.
