Brice's Hired Man.

A disgruntled Ohio democrat of the
name of Thomas helps to start good
campaign cry by expressing the fear
that the epithet "Brice's hired man."
which has been applied to Candidate
Campbell, may stick. The fear" Is
certain to be justified, for it is seldom
that the campaign orator is provided
with better ammunition than is con.
tanned in this same epithet- The ex.
governor was compelled to proteas
when this last nomination was thrust
upon him that he had lost his fortune
by devotion to politics. and was too
poor to resume her improbable bust
ness. But this mattered nothing to
the millionaire senator, who is quita
willing to put up for Campbell in or
der to strengthen his own hand. OF
course Campbell will be defeated, bua
it is generally admitted that he is the
most popular democrat in the state.
and Brice will turn this popularity q
his own account-Cbicago Journal

The Clever and Useful Design OF an In

That necessity is the mother of in

it was the necessity of an unfortunate
bachelor which prompted a clever
woman not long ago to devise a most
ingenious means for bis relief and, in
cidentally. for the comfort of a consid-
cradle number of persons who are not
bachelors. The man in question
was painfully endeavoring TO thread
needle, and confessed that his
occasional button sewing was a
difficult operation. because of the
effort to thread the needle.
So his friend put her wits to work and
by the next day she had evolved a most
valuable bachelors friend" as she
called it. The scheme is as simple as
it is ingenious. It's designer has be-

A Judges Forty Winks.

Sir Frederick Pollock, chief baron of
the English court of the exchequer,
like a once renowned justice of the
supreme court, took a nap pretty regu-
larly about midday. His waking was
comical. For when his forty winks"
ended he would start TO seize a pen,
and with imperturbable gravity say
to the arguing counsel: what page
was your last citation?' The harmless
deceit was humored by the bar, and
only once did it provoke tartness.
This came when an old sergeant re-
torted: Did your lordship refer to the
last citation made before your lord
ship gave Somnus a new trial, or the
citation l made when your lordship
produced a gap in my argument"
Nothing net:led, Baron Pollock I'M
perturbably answered.: The one i'm

from a provincial circuit, about to
make a suggestion regarding an infant

BLACK AND TAN.

Reasons for the Peculiar Color of Certain
Dogs
When in Melbourne last year, went
carefully over all the dogs in show
with one of the stewards, and we found
the spots in all the black-and-tan ter
riers, foxhounds, dcerhounds, collies,
lurchers, ETC.; but could get no infor.
nation regarding them from the ex-
perts.
In some of the highly-bred toy dogs,
as the small blaclS-and-tan terriers,
found on inquiry that these spots, for.
mcrly so very conspicuous, were being
bred out, and had nearly disappeared.
Their persistence through so many
strongly-marked varieties, except those
of late date, is singular, for there is
fairly good proof that when first do
mesticated the dog was red or bright
brown, like the pariah, dingo, etc.
AS far as l can see, we do not find
the spots white on black or dark
ground; nor yet black or dark on a
white or light ground. My explana-
ton is that they have arisen as a
permanent marking after the dogs
''sported" to black under domestica-
ton, and have been preserved and
developed through natural selection.
Possibly they are protective, and simu-
late eyes.
One morning in Asam, just at dawn,

me. The use of the tan spots--in this
case at least-then occurred to me.
May it not be that the spots thus serve
protective purpose, and have often

A Saying That Has Caught the
Town" Make Your Feet
Glad.p

olaus
Not long ago there was introduced
into the advertisements of a certain
Chicago shoe house a pair Of grin
ming feet with the words, "make
your feet glad"
This expression has been Dor
sfewed, -paraphrased and quoted until
1t has become q common saying all
over town. You will see other shoe
advertisements headed Make your
feet happy, clothing advertisements
that read Make your boy glad"
Nowadays the favorite invitation to
drink is "Coms in and make your
stomach glad" In the morning we
suppose it's cracked ice to make
your head glad"
The other day a man directed a
boz to hurry on an errand with the
words run along, make your feet
glad"
The firm that coined this can't be
forgotten catch phrase is coming
money as we'll, if you Judge from its
monthly sales. They make report,
and back up the statement with I'M
qualified proof, that their sale of
shoes for July amounted to more
than that Of any other shoe house in
the country, and more than for any
preceding July in their business.
Four factories employing 1000
men and turning out an average of
1000 shoes a day are always on
the go.
That Chicago should hold the
greatest American boot and shoe in
dustry is a pride worthy fact, espe-
cially when the product is of such
unvarying excellence. Any one who
is at all familiar with the leather
business knows Of the stormy times
through which the trade has just
passed. There was an advance in
the price of leather--an unavoidable,
unconquerable raise.
The shoe firm of which we are
writing, true to its patrons interests,
was the last 10 succumb to this con-
dition. For months after other
houses brought up their prices they
stuck out at their old prices and
smaller profits.
1t is such policies as this that make
the firm Of SELF, Schwab & Co.,
Monroe and Market streets, Chicago,
successful above all others. .
