as a rule, they are no.. What is

Faithful Dog.

The loyalty Of well-bred pointer
dog to his work is remarkable. A
writer in The American Field gives
the following instance:
'More than month ago I was re-
turning home FROM Old Dominion's
Kennel at White Post, Va, with my
latest purchase, Comrade, and while
visiting my cousin in Elkhart, Ill,
one morning, he wanted me to kill
him some ployers. I drove out on
his farm, taking Comrade with me. I
saw a bunch of plovers and tried to
sneak up to them, but they flushed,
keeping Comrade at heel, the birds
flying close to some Usage orange
brush. While creeping up again I
missed the dog, and looking back I
saw him on a staunch point Zone of
those twisted points, with his body
one way and his head the other).
Not knowing that he was pointing I
walked LEX and before I had taken
eight steps the dog jumped back and
changed his position but held his
point. I then ran up and to my sur
prise heard rattlesnake, which had
struck the dog and was ready to
strike again when I shot. Just after
shooting close to the snake out flew
a Bob White. The dog held, stood,
never rushing, but watched the bird
fly away. I then went to my spring
wagon, and drove as fast as I could
to the town of Elkhart. There ! pro-
cured pint Of whiskey, mixed it
with a pint Of milk, and gave it to
Comrade. The dog then became
drowsy, fell asleep, and never awoke
until next morning, apparently none
the worse for the snake bite. He is
at present here with me in good con-
dition, not showing any effect at all
of the bite, but just small scar
above the eye"

Borrowed Troubles.

There are troubles which come to
US, and some which we must meet
and endure at the call of duty; there
are others which we go out of our
way to seek.
These are what I mean by borrow
ed troubles The mother of certain
little boy gave him dime to spend.
On his way to the store, it somehow
slipped from his fingers aud rolled
away out of sight.
He searched and searched, but it
was of no use, the coin was nowhere
to be found.
Here was a sad misfortune. He
wept with sorrow and vexation.
Presently kind woman, touched
by these signs of woe, stopped to IN
quire what the matter was, and' on
learning of his loss, she opened her
purse and gave him 10 cents.
Eagerly the boy grasped the kind
ly gift, his eyes frightened, a. smile
began to creep into the corners OF bis
mouth, and then, all at once, he broke
out into fresh lamentations.
"Why, what is the matter now?'
exclaimed his astonished benefactor.
Haven't you got your 10 cents?"
Yes" sobbed the lad; ''but Oh,
if only I'd got the one I've lost' too'
then I should have 20 cents"
He had suffered loss, and it had
been fully made up to him. That
ought to have ended the difficulty;
but no, he must needs 60 back to
what had been settled and atoned
