to that object when he fred. Nearer
and nearer it came while he sat as
if asleep
"Why, it is Corporalr' he suddenly
exclaimed.
Corporal was q fine, large Newfound-
land dog, pet of the garrison, which
had mysteriously disappeared from the
post two weeks before and which
everyone supposed to have been stolen.
Rogers first impulse was to call the
dog, when he remembered his resolu-
tion-''shoot any moving object that
comes within range" He therefore re-
strained his impulse, and no one would
have guessed that the apparently
sleeping sentinel was closely watch
ing every movement as the dog ap-
preached.
It was lucky idea of Rogers to
feign sleep, for as the dog came nearer
he thought he noticed something
peculiar in its appearance, and it's &C.
tions did not seem quite natural.
POSSIBLY Corporal may be exhaust
ed from hunger, or it may be the de-
ceptive light of the moon" thought
Rogers. The dog was now within
range, and he could hesitate no longer.
Its matter of life and DEATH" he
reflected, land if / make a mistake
everyone, even Corporal himself, will
forgive me-"
Slowly and imperceptibly he brought
his rifle to his shoulder, short but

only an Apache who has received his
death wound can giYe-startled the
whole garrison.
As if by magic everyone collected on
the spot, each as he approached evi.

the tragedies.
The story was soon told. The skin of
poor Corporal had been used as dis
guise by the Apache, who, with bow in
hand, had been creeping up on his
third intended victim. Deceived by
the apparently sleeping sentinel he
had been led to hetray himself and

Exceptions prove the rule, and the
wrong conclusion which a dog may
reach from wrong premises may be the
best proof that he possesses reasoning
power. The following story, says the
Youths Companion, shows plainly that
the dog in the case lacked information.
but not the faculty of reasoning:
When the Gloucester lifehoat was
launched in 1867 it was deemed neccs-
sary for two men to throw themselves
into the sea in order to show the great
utility Of cork jackets in keeping the
upper part of their bodies bove water.
Among the thousands Of spectators
who were watching the men floating
about was Newfoundland dog, who
became much excited at what he, no
doubt, considered the serious condition
of the men.
The dog ran hithcr and thither, bark
ing furiously, and in his best and most
emphatic language trying his very best
tc prevail upon some one in that large
multitude of human beings to go to the
mems assistance.
Finding no one to go, splash into tho
water went the dog and swan directly
to the men, one of whom he caught by
the sleeve, with the intention of help
ing him out of danger.
A struggle ensued; the man tried to
shake the dog off, but it was of no
avail. The dog would not give up his
hold, and finally two men in small
boat were obliged to go to the rescue.

While discussing the problem an
orderly appeared and reported:
Private Rogers would like to speai.
to the commanding officer"
The commanding officer went into
his private Office, and after the inter
view returned to the room where the
officers were assembled.
| Young Rogers has asked permis-
sion to take charge of post No. at
night until he solves the mystery, and
have granted his request"
The faces of the officers showed
plainly the anxiety they felt. Young
| Rogers was the son Of brother cap
tain in their regiment, who at that
time was stationed in an eastern city
on recruiting service.
The young man had enlisted six
months previously with the object OF
obtaining an officers commission,
| which may be won by worthy and
/ capable man.
The young fellow had gained the
| esteem and respect of everyone by his
| manly qualities and strict obedience
to orders. Many of the officers had
known him from his childhood. He
had been the playmate of their chill
| dren and q great favorite with all.
Later on many tried to persuade him
| to withdraw his request.
'Take the post if it falls to your lot,
but don't volunteer" they pleaded.

Seated on the ground, his back

knees, he was apparently asleep. Ap-

case, had not crept upon his victim un-

some disguise which had completely
deceived the sentinel. What was this
disguise?

betray himselfif he thought me asleep

Through the long hours of the night

rifle. He was a dead shot, and woe be

doubtedly he had by the same device
deceived the other sentinels and had
very nearly succeeded in adding an
other scalp.
Young Rogers was overwhelmed
with congratulations, a special report
was at once made to the war depart
ment, and before long he received as
reward his much-coveted commission.

Postage stamp perforation.

In performing postage stamps a die
plate is placed below the needles of a
machine carrying three hundred
needles. As about one hundred and
eighty million holes are punched per
day the wear on the die plate is exces-
sive; brass plates wear out in 4 day, and
even steel plates are rapidly destroyed.
The use Of aluminium bronze has caused
the die plates to last fer months with
out renewal.
