The charming little girls of the Sloane
family own a kennel of dogs-brown,
woolly dogs. These dogs are the only ones
of their kind, in that they have no imita-
tors in tricks or manners. For many
generations they have been household
pets and their young owners have taught
them tricks and trained them until the
tricks are actual nature, and dog ways
are a second thought with these gifted
little black fellows.
Walking on their hind legs is the pet
accomplishment of these dogs. They do
monkey.
One of the little girls had her fayorite
poodle out to walk the last sunshiny day.
He was dressed for street parade, and.
In long walk, rested on four legs only
when his mistress back was turned.
The skirt he wore was o black and
blue striped silk. 1t was quite godet
all around, and was gathered upon a
band of white ribbon. 1t just escaped
his knees. Ills collar was blue ribbon
with many loops and his hat was a nice

tress told a little girl friend that JAG
quette had twenty-seven dresses and
wore different one every day until the
twenty-seven had gone the rounds.
Dogs that bark great deal, which
means all fox terriers and most tans,
have very nice little neck-piece for their
protection. On damp days a dogs voice

spots.

Every woman with dog dresses him up
nowadays, and most men secure blan-
ket from some feminine friend. For
negligee the richest bachelor in New York
has a dog blanket made by the handl-
work of half dozen very lovely society
