George Sand at seventy-one.

La Revue de Paris prints d statement
by George Sand on her views of novel
writing and her views of life in general
1t was written when she was II years
old and was meant as preface to a
new edition of her works, but the prof.
ect of the new edition was given up
Though she was looking forward to
death at the time, it expresses only the
most cheerful sentiments, for there was
a stubbornness about her optimism as
about her idealism. Concerning this
last she has good deal to say, of which
the substance is this: she has been
charged with idealizing her personages.
Well, she meant them to be as they are.
And, which is not the same thing, she
saw them SO, and often met people like
them in the world. But if she had only
met one such noble parsonage that
same would havo been real, and she
would be within her rights in depicting
him. She is aware the present temper
OF the world is hard. She has done her
level best to soften the feelings of her
contemporaries and altogether failed.
But she means to go on her old way at
II, and, if she can persuade a single
soul Of the reality of ideal virtue, will
say her time has not been lost. And all
will come right. AS for the world going
to the dogs or dying of feebleness-not
bit OF it. The groaner only echoes his
own miserable condition. - London

On the Trek.

We have now had real trial of trek
KING life, and thus far it is the greatest
success. This is how our day passes
We trek from about in the morning till
about z. AS the road is usually pretty
jolly, and therefore not conducive to
slumber, Mrs. Grey and I sleep on for
another hour after we stop-that is,
from to 8. During this time the tent
Is put up, and some water got, if posi-.
pie, for our baths. Meanwhile the men
have gone out shooting. We have break
last on the veldt about 8 80 or 10. Aft
er that till about 80 is FREQ. I some
tlmes sketch, but usually want to walk
as well; or I ought to be writing jour
nal or washing clothes or dusting out
the wagon Or skinning birds or darning
my stockings Especially the last), and
the time available is all too short. At
we have cup Of cocoa and biscuit,
and then pack up for another two hours
trek from to 4. One has to pack ev-
erythlng in most carefully, as otherwise
IL would be either jolted to pieces or
tossed out. Washstand, camp stools,
ladder, books, etc., are all located in
our wagon and have to be taken in and
out at each trek. From 10 to is the
only quiet time for sleeping, so one tries
TO make the most of it. The "boys"
usually sleep under the wagons Almost
the only drawback of the life is the dirt
ana dust. For the first week the roads
Were muddy, and our buck wagon got
stuck" several times-once for about
eight hours. They had to use 20 pairs Of
oxen to pull it out, taking the spans
1rom the other wagons, and even then
only succeeded after "off loading" and
much digging in front of the wheels

The Dog Remembered the Joke

A we'll known physician in one of the
suburbs Is the proud owner Of dog that
is almost humun and has in his make
up strain of humor that no English
man can boast Of. The canine is just 8
years of age. The first four years of his
life were spent under the care of young
man who worked for the doctor, and
who had penchant for teasing the
dog on all occasions. The young fell
low was an excellent mimic Of animal
sounds, and whenever he co2ld catch the
dog asleep he would creep up behind
him and bark loudly in his ear. The dog
invariably woke with start and would
jump out Of the door or window in a
jiffy or turn to defend himself.
After four years Of such misery. the
dog saw the young man leave the en-
ploy Of the physician, but recently he
returned and was again given his old
position. When he entered the house,
the dog was lying on the floor. The
young man greeted him, but Mr.. Canine
did not notice the salutation. He did,
however, take in the situation at
glance. A few hours afterward the
young man lay down by an open win
dow for short nap. Presently the peo-
pie in the house noticed the dog get up
from his resting place and make his
way toward the young fellow. Every
body silently awaited developments,
holding themselves in readiness in case
the dog made any attempt to bite the
man. But he did nothing of the kind.
Only his sense Of humor came into play.
Creeping up to the sleeping man, he
placed his mouth close to the ear of the
sleeper and barked loudly. The man,
upon hearing the sound, was SO fright
ened that he leaped out of the window
and fell into tub of water beneath.
The joke was so good that the doctor
has been deluged with offers for the dog,
but his valuation has so greatly in
creased that it would take a pretty good
figure to get thim.-Cincinnati Enuuirer.
The Rev. Thomas Alexander, Pres
byterian minister long resident in Chel-
sea, and well known as brother Scot.
was most anxious to know Carlyle, but
had no opportunity Of getting an intro
duction to him. One day, in the Kings
road, he saw Carlyle coming in his di-
rection, and took advantage of the op-
portunity by going up to the sage and
saying, "Thomas Carlyle, I believer"
Carlyle's reply was, 'Tom Alexander.
I knowl'' They became good friends,
and later Mr.. Alexander wrote to Car
lyle for a subscription toward school
building fund, and Carlyle wrote back
a refusal in doggerel. whereupon Mr..
Alexander replied that if he did not
send him e5 he would sell his poetry to
a collector or publish 1t. The e5 was at
once forthcoming. San Francisco Ar
