A new religion has sprung up In France
that OF dog worship. These darling pets
of smart women have charming time Of
1t when they are not being vivisected by
brutal scientific men, rs is often the case,
for pet dogs, like refined people, are pecul-
iarly sensitive, their nerves as well as
their tastes being ultra developed The
priced fayorite of his doting mistress is
armed at all points. He has his own tailor,
who provides him with variety of clothes,
of which the fashion changes monthly. He
has winter couts, summer wraps, mackin-
toshcs, oomforters, pocket handkerchief,
even respiratOrs. Dogs have been trained
to eat their dinner off tablecloth and to
carry sunshade over their devoted heads.
False teeth, too can be provided and den
lists arc found specially prepared to minis
ter to the canine race.
And with all this luxury the charm Of
the dog S company will be destroyed. Ar
tiflcial and civilized, ho will differ nowise
from men, and we all have experienced the
value of dog who is our friend, who is
funny and naughty and mischievous and
frolicsome and faithful and undiscrimi-
mating, who loves US when we are unjust
as well as when we are good, who bears nc
malice, and never philosophers, and lives
only for pleasure and to have good time
innocently expecting us to share 1t with
him and looking to us confidently for sym

Plant life is not dormant during the
winter when the thermometer is below
freezing point, us any observer of vegeta-
ton in winter may note for himself. Tho
Towering buds Of the red maple, the dog
woods, willows and many other plants,
scarcely diseerniblo in the axis at the fall
of the leaf become so large by spring as to
be ready TO burst ON "a moments notice, !"
and this though the Thermometer may
have been continuously near zero Observ-
ers in the Alpine regions of Europe have
noted that contains and similar plants
will grow and even flower under the
snow which has enyeloped them the whole
winter through, thawing out by their own
internal heat little chambers In the pro
tecting SNOW, And the same Is recorded of
the American snow plant, the Sierra Ne
yada's SarCodee sanguinea. 1t Is often
found in full bloom when tho snow melts
away from it and indeed derives its com
mon name from this fact. 1t would thus
appear that before the laws which deter
mine the behavior OF plants can be fully
developed the physiological conditions of
plant life will have TO be more carefully
studied and perhaps more weight given to
the plant $ own internal powers than the
mere conditions of enyironment.-Inde-

N.,o,.on and Ceremonies,

Tho ceremonial that the revolution
swept away the first Emperor Napoleon
was careful to revive in less extreme
form, and 1t is characteristic of the man
that he made a special study Of 1t and
went so far as to prescribe the special
forms to DO observed on great occasions.
Before his coronation, NJ. Isabey, tho mini
allure painter, gave seven rehearsals with
wooden dolls appropriately dressed of the
seven ceremonies that were to BIO enacted
And, one ceremony being especially intri-
cate, the functionaries rehearsed it in per-
son in the gallery of Diana at the Tuil-
cries, a plan having been carefully traced
with chalk on the floor.
This was the sort of thing in which Ma
poleon especially reioiced, and he himself
arranged beforehand all tho details Of the
entry of Maria Louisa into France and OF
his subsequent marriage with her Among
other particulars, on reaching what was
then French territory the archduchess was
conducted into tho eastward room of a
three roomed house near Braunau. The
French commissioner entered the west
ward while the third room in the middle
was occupied by the rest of the party. And
NJ. de Bausset, who gives an account Of
the proceedings, having bored holes with 9
gimlet in the door of the middle room, hat
splendid view of tho unconscious prln
cess. But, he quantity adds, it was tho la
dies who took most advantage of his fore
thought-London Standard.

Ins TEACHER cAswsp GUM.
other Methods Hsd Failed to Break Up
an Epidemic Amoiig the Pupils.

an Epidemic Amohe the Pupils.
Last winter West Side grammar school
suffered an epidemic of gum chewing.
The disease manifested itself In mild form
at first, and the teachers thought they had
stamped it out by the time honored method
Of compelling the children to throw the
gum out of the window. just as the teach
ers began to congratulate themselves on
their success the disease all ct once broke
out again in violent form. 1t Is compare
lively easy to deal with one culprit but
when there are So lawbreakers among 40
pupils the situation becomes delicate and
requires high degree of diplomacy. Some
of tho teachers tried despotisn, with moth
ing to back it up, others ridlcule and
sarcasm, another arbitration. With the
latter the compromise consisted in giving
permission to leave the gum in the cloak
room So each girl put her hat on her
own particular hook and stuck her gum
on the wall above IL, and her rights were
respected.
But one day ono of tho boys who was
sent to stand in the cloakroom made
collection of wads Of gum, and the girls
were borcft. After that they brought their
gum into the schoolroom and stuck 1t on
the ink wells. Having the tempting NOR
sells under their eyes all day long was too
much to be resisted, and they soon re-
lapsed into more hopeless state than be-
fore In another room the gum chewing
had gone on uninterruptedly for a couple
of weeks, the teacher apparently taking
no notice of 1t. This was all the more as
tonishing because she WAS a strict disciple
MARIAN
Ono morning when the class was called
to order the teacher was sitting on the
platform as usual, but with the absent
minded, vacuous expression characteristic
of the confirmed gum chewer on her face.
She was chewing gum with variations
all the variations she had seen In the
schoolroom. She kept this up the whole
day, laying her gum aside with sigh OF
regret when she had to hear class recite
and putting it into her mouth again as
soon as the lesson was finished. Not a
word was said about 1t. The pupils looked
at each other in silent amazement, but
never smiled. At noon they discussed the
matter among themselves. In the after
noon some OF them appeared without theiI
gum. They watched the teacher and II
gradually dawned upon them that she was
giving them an object lesson Did they
look like that? The next morning there
was no gum in the schoolroom, but thu
teacher asked the pupils to spare her a!
much as possible from talking-her law
