at any time such a book as the Apocalypse
in an intelligent manner.
But this belongs to the Apocalypse in
common with all, or, at any rate, with
most Of the prophetic looks. The Para
disc Lost Of Milton, and other poetical
works in our language may indeed be read
by all who can read English, and many
things in them can be understood and ap-
preciated in good measure, even by the
lower and middle classes OF readers But
to comprehend the whole, lies within tha
province Of only a few.
The speaker next proceeded to give
examples of other individual opinions OF
this book and its meaning, including thoss
OF Luther, Calvin, Augustine, BOssuet, and
others, together with some extravag ganCes

with the vision OF the last end OF the
earth. and his number OF csc.
After Mr.. GouId's address the discus
sion on the two papers previously read
was begun 1t was a lively argument
which the ministers presented for and
against the methods of criticism, nearly
every speaker being stopped in his re-
marks because he exceeded his time
limit for discussion.

The second days session Of the council OF

time business meeting was held. In the
afternoon the Rev. s. s. Seward OF Ne W

The hour was set apart for the reading
OF papers on Ministerial work" Biblical

read, however, the time being too short
and the unavoidable absence OF two gen.

The first paper OF the afternoon was that

Gould said in part:
The present phase OF Old Testament crit

the last century, and all subsequent eriti-

Protection. A'
The key to protection is that which
forms the basis Of the first law Of
nature, viz, Misrepresentation"
Protection under the Mckinley tariff
policy puts a tariff on imports which
is equal to the difference between the
cost Of producing the article in this
country and in foreign countries. The
object Is to preserve every American
job for resident Of America and to
prevent our citizens from sending their
orders abroad while their neigllbors
need the jobs at home. We cannot
legislate for the benefit Of the world:
only Americans protect the American
government; it is just therefore that
the American shall protect American
laborers. The distress Of the last three
years Is not due to the financial situa-
ton, because for many years before
the panic of IS! 3 there was unprece-
denied prosperity, and this present
financial policy has existed for several
decades. The distress due to the shut
ting down Of American workshops he
cause American trade was no longer
protected. This threw thousands out
Of employment. Idle men have gone
hungry because they had no wages to
buy food. Farmers have suffered be-
cause the idle men could not buy their
food; and so with enormous crops beg
ging for customers amongst moneyless
men, hundreds have starved within
sight Of wasting overabundance.
Self-preservation is the key, there
fore, to the question of protective tar
i'll, as honesty is the key to the money
question. There may be two sides to
the policy Of self-preservation, but
there can be but one side to a matter
OF honesty.

seven car loads of frogs, but was in

large quantities, but they would take
ten dozen. So the man agreed to de-
liver them soon. A few days later he
walked in and said he had the frogs,
but had only five instead of ten dozen.
The dealer wanted to know where the
balance were: The man explained that
there was pond near his house, and
from the amount Of noise the frogs
made he thought there must be at least
seven car loads in the pond, but when
be investigated he found there were
only five dozen. The free silver men
are making lots of noise, but we think
the proportion will be about the same
as the frogs.-Hardware.

As for the dainties upon which pet

dandy develops eccentrioities Of appetite
Of his own and is not happy unless his
pampered palate is tickled daily by his
favorite dishes. Sometimes it is for
game that doggie hungers. and there is
a story told of one high bred terrier who
would turn up his nose at anything less
choice than broiled breast Of pheasant

No wonder dog doctors and dog den
lists are often in demand and that dog
hospitals flourish. The dog dentist is
particularly busy man. Naturally
dogs teeth do not require any attention,
but after they have been subsisting for
months on an unnatural diet their teeth
begin to show the effects, and, although
they enjoy many pleasures which their
more democratic brothers of the streets
never heard of, yet they have to pay for
it by their suffering with toothache and
in the dentists chair. Sometimes false
teeth take the place of the natural ones
that have been destroyed by candy and
other dainties. A Chicago dog dentist
once made complete set Of teeth for a
pet setter. Each tooth had to be manu-
featured separately, and then the plate
had to be fitted to doggie's mouth. The
bill for the job was $3.50 and was paid
without murmur by the wealthy
woman who owned the unfortunate
beast. Gases of filling dogs teeth with
gold are frequent.
Dog doctors also charge good prices
for their work. Most of them run dog
hospitals, where they can take the pa
tients and have absolute care Of them
for few weeks. Often the animal is
found to be suffering from nothing but
want of exercise and too rich food. A
week or two with dog biscuit as diet
and daily run about the yard soon
brings them around all right.
Dog etiquette is carried to the utmost
limit only in Paris. In that city, where
the word home is unknown, it is con-
sidel ed extremely bad taste for lady
to be seen driving out with her chill
dren. If she wants to be entirely cor
rect, she leaves her children at home

JEEMs TAKES THE PETS FOR A WALK.

carry their fondness for dogs he would
have used different and more appro-
pirate metaphor. for Homer was very
particular about such things
In fact, the modern pet dog is just
beginning to have his day. And such a
day it is. Sensible persons will scarcely
credit the extent to which feminine
foolishness in regard to pet dogs is car
ried. Now, almost every one admires
dogs, and nearly every dog owner will
own up to being guilty Of certain
amount Of mild lunacy in petting them,
but all must agree that some Of the
extravagances which the fashionable
worldlings go to in their treatment Of
their canine pets is rank idiocy.
1t is in Paris, that city of eccentric
modes, that the aristocracy of the dog
is most complete. London society wom-
en- are almost as inane, and the fashion
ables of New York and Chicago are fast
adopting these senseless customs.
There are very few of the women
who pose as leaders Of society in either
Of these four cities who do not own from
one to half dozen toy dogs. Some of
them employ maids whose sole duties
are to look after the wants Of these
canine swells. A few years ago about
the only method of pampering the pets
was to load them with jeweled collars
and feed them on expensive dainties. OF
late years, however, the equipment Of
toy dogs has been increased until it
now cuts pretty figure in the expense

Las to settle.
X The canine aristocrat Of today not
only wears collars Of gold and silver
which sometimes blaze with diamonds,
but he has complete costumes for every
occasion. He has his morning suit or
dress, his calling costume, his reception
gown and his robe de mutt or pyjamas.
lie IS "'ruDped'- regularly, he has his
morning walk in the park with Jeems
or the maid, he drives in the afternoon
and he is prominent figure at teas and
receptions In both Paris and London
there are dog tailors who make bust
nes Of furnishing dog clothes. There are
dog hairdressers, dog dentists and dog
doctors.
London has even dogs club. This
institution is called the Dogs Toilet
club. It is located in New Bond street,
where it is handy to the fashionable
quarters. The club occupies luxuriously
furnished rooms and is used as a place
where wealthy dog owners may have
their pets barbered and bathed and
dressed according to the prevailing fash
ion. Perhaps you think that dogs
toilet is q simple affair. Far from it. A
dandy dog must have his hair sham
pooed, oombed, brushed and clipped.
His eyes must be bathed in rosewater,
his nails filed and oiled and polished
with all the art OF q manicure, and then
he must be dressed in the mode before
he ia ready to appear in society. .
It IL said that in Paris no less than
5000 dogs have their clothes made b5
their own tailora An outfit Of plain
dog clothes may be bought for about $66.
This will include six nightgowns Of
