to everything else. A bulldog never
forgets anything; whether it be kind
ness, or an insult, or college educa-
ton, and is in this respect quite unlike
the celebrated Thomas B. Macaulay,
who boosted he had forgotten more
things than most people knew.
The training of the dogs requires a
certain knack, with great kindness, pa
thence and frmness. For, although
they are sparing of the whip, when a
dog deserves whipping he gets it,
after being made to understand why
he is punished.
The first step in his training is the
placing of a mannikin behind the door
and making the dog understand that
this is a criminal he is to seize. This
lesson is not hard for him to learn, for
q bulldog would much rather jump on
man than not. Then the trainer
catches the mannilin by the shoulders
and lowers it slowly to the ground,
with the dog still hanging to the rags
around the neck. When the dog be-
gins to tear the figure the trainer
strikes him with the whip to intimate
that that is not what he is expected to
do. Finally he learns that he is not to
let go but to hang on without tear
ing the victim. If anyone moves the
mannil1in he has gripped ferocious
growl warns all bystanders that all
such nonsense had better stop at once.
When he carries out his role we'll he is
petted and caressed, for kindness plays
quite as important a part as The whip
in the school.
AS soon as it is certain that Master
Dcggie has learned his lesson they let
him loose on living model. This OK
pertinent is never quite free from dan
ger, so the man who feeds him is usual
ly chosen for the first experiment, as
the dog will not be so likely to tear
him, although in all cases the model
puts on leather collar around his neck
to guard against accident. Then these
experiments arc renewed on strangers,
who naturally demand pretty good pay
for their services, and who constitute \
sort of board Of regents. If the dog
passcL this examination, he takes his
degree and is ready for work. The
German government hopes to mako use
of these dogs in the service of the
customs to catch smugglers on the from
tier.
Apr opos Of these dogs, am reminded
Of story of a policeman in this coun-
try in u country town, who was always
accompanied on his beat by his devoted
bulldog. One day the policeman dis
covered two mon in n case OF assault
and robbery. When they saw him com
ing they took to their heels. OF course
he could not go two ways at once, so he
called Nicks attention to ono man,
while he made off after the other. He
secured his man, and, coming back,
found tho second man PROSTATE with
Nick standing guard.-St. Louis Re-

The Japan annual conference of the
Methodist Protestant church, which

While the japanese sake contains a
very low per cent of alcohol and is
much less harmful than foreign
liquors, yet nevertheless, since nine
tenths of all crime is directly or in
directly the result of sake drinking;
therefore,

circulation of sound temperance litera-
ture; (3) since children are so suscepti-
bic to good impressions as we'll as bad,
that all teachers in Sunday-schools be
diligent to instill into the minds of the
children the principle and practice of

the fluids of the eye; while the brain
substance and the nervous fluid have

ter have their proper proportion
OF tiuidity they report correctly;
but let this balance be disturbed by
alcohol and we lose our bearings,
though we get some sorts of reports, at
least until we are quite stupefed. The
brain, which takes the reports of the
nerves and gives out orders, is unbal-
anced and can form no correct judg-
ment and exercise no Self-control; and,
what Is worse, it does not usually rec
oSnize the cause nor the extent of the
mischief. and in many cases not even

will furnish abundant illustrations,
the confusion of ideas, the lack of CO.
ordination in muscular movements evil
denced in the staggering gait, and in
mental movements by the Stiffness, the
vacant stare and other symptoms.
More or less of these result even from
small doses, because of the exceeding
delicacy Of the nervous apparatus.
A due appreciation of these facts
would not only make us more careful
how we tempered with such a poison,
but it would demonstrate the necessity
OF careful and continued teaching and
illustration to expose the deceitful eff
fects of this common poison. The
more carefully we investigate the more
we shall be convinced that as rule
people do not understand the first
principles of this science. Men well
versed in other sciences not having
learned this, have been known to say
that every man must judge by his own
feelings whether alcoholic drinks are
good for him or not; which is precisely
what men have been doing for CEN
turtles, and we see what comes of that.
Alcohol has kept its place in public es-
TEEN for many centuries, mainly by it's
false pretenses, and nothing will so
surely pull it down as the exposure of
its innate deceitfulness Julia Col

escaped to the roof, whence they could
pass to the roofs OF the adjoining build
ings.
Among the people who escaped to the
roof was an elderly lady, Mrs. Leary by
name She suddenly flew into a state
of distress upon remembering that she
had left her parrot, a tenderly cher
ished pet, in the rooms below. AT tho
risk of her life, she went down to get it.
She secured the bird, but when she
attempted to regain the roof she found
her way completely barred by the fire.
Size could pass neither up nor down. All
she could do was to go to q window and
mingle her screams with those of the
parrot, which she held in her arms.
An attempt was made to reach her
with ladder, but this proved impos-
sible. She was about to jump out OF
the window, when the people below
down to her from above.
This was the case. Several firemen
were on the roof. One Of them, Dennis
Dyer by name, tied strong rope
around his body, and his comrades
lowered hira 10 the window at which
stood Mrs. Leary and her parrot. 1t
was at tho risk of mis- life, for the
flames were already envcloping the
front of the building.
Ryer reached the window and seized
Mrs. Lcary firmly in his arms. Then
the fireman on the roof carried or
dragged them both along until they
were opposite window Of the adjoin-
ing building. Through this window
Ryer thrust his human burden, and
then climbed in himself. AS soon as he
had seen the woman to place of safe
ty, Ryor returned to his regular duties
in distinguishing the fire. Mrs. Leary

A POWERFUL CEIVER,
One of tho Prominent characteristics OF
1.-The Devil in Solution"

One of tho Prominent characteristics of
1.-THE Devil in Solution"
This seems fanciful name to be
given by SO staid and practical body
of men as the notable English physi-
clans to a substance in common use,
but it has repeatedly been applied by
several of them to alcohol. We can
find reasons enough for doing this in
the disease and death, the poverty,
crime, squalor and general wretched-
ness which meet practicing physicians
at every step as the consequence of it's
use. But while these would be ample,
and we could easily fill volumes with
illustrations, there is another reason
}ually widespread, but not so readily
aiken into account, and chat is it's de-
ceitfulness. To this characteristic we
have not given 50 much attention as it
deserves. We have, indeed, often read
the ancient assurance of Solomon that
wine is mOcller, and whosoever is
deceived thereby is not wise" but we
may never have taken in the full force
of the expression nor the width of its
sweep, how it deceives all who take it
and literally makes them fools.
The cause of all this dreadful de ceit-
fulness lies in the nature of the drink
itself, and its action on the nervous
iystem. 1t is notably a brain and nerve
poison. We feel with our nerves and
are peculiarly prone to believe every
thing we feel. Tell anyone that the
particular alcoholic drink he is taking
does him no good and he will most
likely laugh you to scorn. Thy, l
know it does me good" he exclaims:
81 can tell by my feelings!" That is to
lost minds the end of the controversy
they recognize no appeal from the de-
cision of the feelings.
But what if the nerves with which
we feel have been tempered with so
much that they do not report correct
~? Let us see what happens in this
case. The nerves and brain form a
sort of telegraphic system in the hui
man body, receiving all sensations
and governing ell movements, both
voluntary and involuntary. The brain
answers to the instrument and the
nerves to the wires The latter, how
ever, are not solid. They consist
OF strings of cells filled with nerv-
Gus fluid. The correctness with
which messages are transmitted de-
ponds largely on the proper consistency
of this fluid. Now alcohol is a chem
zeal substance very greedy of water.
1t unitcs with it in all proportions, and
can be separated from it only with
great difficulty. So when brought in
contact with any moist substance,
alcohol sucks up the moisture pr ompt-
ly. This explains it's preserving quail
tiles.
A large proportion of water aud its
free circulation ara necessary to all the
processes of life. The human body is
much more than half water, physiol-
ogists differing as to the exact pro-
portion. The tough skin gives it a
Arm appearance; but II you doubt its

THE CONTRARY BOY.


lam the quecrest sort of boy the world has
In fact don't suppose before my like has ever
been,
Because, from early dawning to tho setting OF
the sun,
always want to DO the things that really can't
be done.
For instance, when this summer comes, I SIT
down by the gate
And almost tear my hair with rage because
cannot skate
AID through the heated August nights often
lie in bed
And moan and groan because can't go coast

Then when the frigtd winters here, and thiEgs

apple trees
And pluck tho blossoms from the twigs; but
blossoms mona are there
When winter winds are blowing and the apple
boughs arc baro.
At brcakfast-time l sit me down, and often
deeply sigh
Because there's toast and buckwhcat cakes
instead of pumpkin pie:
Yet, when at dinner-time we've pie, my tears
como down like lakes
Because by that time I've q taste for toast and

A Widow Secures Damages for tho Loss

A Widow Secures Damages for tho Loss
of Her Husband Through Drink.
In 1890, Mrs. Mary E. Sawyer, of Sa-
line county Neb., by her attorneys, A.
e. Wolfen barger and W. Henry Smith,
of Lincoln, brought suit for damages
against several saloon keepers for con-
stantly supplying liquor to her inebri-
ate husband, causing his death, and
thus depriving her and her minor chill
dren of needful support. The evidence
produced at the trial showed that An
drew j. Sawyer, the husband, was an
honest, Woodworking farmer when he
began patronizing the saloons of the
defendants in Crete; that he continued
drinking until he became incapable of
performing the necessary work on his
farm; that he would go on peri
odical sprees of many days dura-
ton; that one period of drunken
ness would be speedily fol-
lowed by another, until at last, in 1888
and 1889, by his reckless squandering
of his property through drink, he and
his family were reduced to abject pov-
erty, and friends and neighbors assist
ed the mother and children with food
and clothing to keep them from starv-
ing. The case was bitterly fought by
q. prominent ex.district judge and his
associates on behalf of the liquor men,
but the widows lawyer won judg-
ment of 81 500 for her and the children,
The liquor men carried the case to the
supreme court, where it has been pend
ing since 1892. Judge Morris appeared
for the saloon-keepers and A. G.. VOL
fenbarger for the mother and her chill
dren. A few days ago the case was de-
cided in favor OF the woman and her
children, her lawyers winning the case
on every point. This was the second
judgment Mrs. Sawyer had obtained
against the saloon-keepers in Crete,
the former one being for S7OO, and
against other parties The $7OO judg-
ment was paid.-Union Worker.

Figures on the light and heat of the
sun are the most startling that can
possibly be presented. The astrono-
mers measure the amount of heat and
light emitted by the sun by estimating
that The earth intercepts about the two
billion three hundred millionth part of
it. Thus it is found that in every
second of time the sun emits as much
heat a would result from the sudden
combustion of II 800, 0OO 600, 900 tons of
pure coal! In closing this short mote"
may be interesting to the reader to
knoy that each portion of the suns
surface as large as this earth emits as
much heat per second as would result
from the combustion of 1000, 0Oo, 900
tons of the best anthracite fuel.-St.

SELL SECONDHAND PAPERS.
How Trainmen on City and Suburban
Lines Help Out Their Monthly Salaries.

How Trainmen City and Suburban
Lines Help Out Their Monthly Salaries.
Owing, no doubt, to the large and
open-handed style of living which char
acterizes the American there is very
little regular traffic in secondhand
magazines in this country and practi-
cally none in secondhand newspapers
so far as the general public is con-
cerned. In England great many peo-
pie are regular subscribers to second
hand papers, and the business is so inn
portant that one concern finds it suffi-
GENTLY profitable to quote its prices
for read copies of the leading Lon
don dailies at considerable length in
the Times.
In Chicago although nobody is will
ing to wait few hours for his news in
order to save few cents, the business
of selling secondhand newspapers is
carried on pretty extensively, owing to
the exchange privileges allowed by the
papers to railroad news agents and To
the newsboys The brakemen on the
suburban trains, the guards on the
elevated roads, and the conductors on
the street cars gather up the cast-off
papers on their trains at the end of
every run. The street railway con-
ductor as rule, has no market for his
papers, and, after giving the gripmen
and the men in the barn all they want
to while away idle moments, he de-
stroys the rest, but the men on the
suburban trains and the elevated roads
dispose of their surplus to the news
agents on the trains in the case of the
suburban roads and at the station in
ease of the elevated For twO-cent
paper the agent pays one cent, and for
the one-cent papers fifteen cents for
fifty. If the news agent gets them
early in the day he can resell many of
them. If there is some big piece of
news in the market he has no trouble
in disposing of all he can get up till
noon. Those he doesn't sell he can ex-
change within twenty-four hours for
new ones of the next issue, so that he
cannot lose by the transaction, no mat
ter what the condition of the market
may be.
This extra money, if the paper col
lector is lucky. amounts to several dol
lars in the course of the month. One
of the curiosities of the business is the
fact that the conditions which make
business lively for the news agent
make it dull for the paper collector and
vice versa. If the weather is stormy
more papers are sold by the agent, be-
cause people expect to be kept indoors
more and to have fewer Interruptions
from visitors, but for the same reason
they are less apt to leave their papers
in the car seat. During the cold snaps
the trainmen have rather slim picking
comparatively, and the same thing is
true on rainy and stormy days in the
summer time.-Chicago Tribune.
