A Dog That Tolls Time.

H. e. Peterson. workman st the cot
tonseed mill of Paris. Tex, owns dog,
Nick, that can tell the time of day. It is
Nick's duty to take his masters dinner to
hi m in little pail every day, and should
Mrs. Peterson by any mischance overlook
the matter the dog is sure to remind her
in proper time by bringing the bucket and
urging her to fiji it. At first it was sup
posed to be the dogs intuition merely
that enabled him to know the hour. but
he has many times been seen watching
the clock, and once, when Mrs. Peterson
set the hands ahead to test the matter,
Nick brought the dinner-pail promptly on
the stroke of IL, though in reality it was
only II.
Nick is as familiar with the whistles as
Peterson is himself, and always sees to it
that his master is awake at the proper
time each morning to begin his work. If
Peterson oversleeps himself Nick is sure
to be on the alert, and at the first sound
of the early whistle runs to the bedside
and barks till his master is awake.-Phila-

Talk at the Cosmos of
Moving to the McNutt
Residence.
House Now Occupied by the Pa
c fic-Union to be Converted
Into a Hotel.
The Landlord May Compel Members
to Vacate Before the Van Ness
Avenue Home Is Ready.

Club men in the Pacific Union and
Cosmos institutions are greatly agitared
over the impending changes. The mem
bers of the Cosmos are inclined to
take extreme measures. The proposition
now under consideration there is to lease
the DIR. McNutt residence on California
street, near Franklin.
The location is desirable and the prop
erty can be secured for club purposes. so
it is said, on agreeable terms. Ii a con-
solidation with the Pacific Union could be
effected many of the members would be
gratiied, but plans to bring about sucn
union have not been pressed.
The trouble with the existing Cosmos
Case rests on the fact that it was laid out
on all ascending scale. The prosperity OF
the club has not kept pace with the con-
stantly increasing price of the rent.
In order to meet current obligations and
provide sinking fund for future contin-
gencies members have been obliged to con-
tribute something in addition to annual
dues. The idea of dissolving the organi-
cation is not seriously considered, but a
firm determination is manifested to move
unless the landlord agrees to make some
concessions.
Some of the members of the Pacific
Union have been alarmed by report that
the owner or agent of the Union-square
mansion which the club occupies has
given notice that the premises must be
vacated by May unless ten years lease
is negotiated.
The present lease expires April 1, and
it will take eighteen months time to
build and properly equip the new home
on Van Ness avenue. 1t goes without
saying that the Pacific Union is an insti-
tuition that cannot be bulldozed by the
landlord.
The building on Post street now used by
the club is owned by the Walkeriey estate.
Mr.. Burbank, formerly an Oakland news
paper man, is the agent for the property,
as he married the widow who owns il.
He has an idea, so the gossip goes, of
converting the house into modern hotel.
Mr.. Burbank is credited with having
fixed notions and since the club has finally
determined to go to Van Ness avenue the
agent seems TO desire that the order OF
going should be put into immediate effect
Members of the Pacific Union, in the
event of compulsory measures, would seek a
temporary home or engage suites of apart
men.s al one of the leading hotels. There
is talk of taking the Cosmos clubhouse
for year or more should the CosmopoIi-
tans yacate.
Steps will certainly be taken to main
tain club headquarters until the new
home on Van Ness avenue is ready for
occupancy. The members will have the
courtesies of other City clubs extended to
them, but they would not feel like using

A Master of Medicine and Surgery.

There has probably never been q ply.
sician or surgeon in San Francisco who
was SO literally patronized by the sick and
suffering, and at the same so highly praised
by them, as the dist 'nguished specialist,
Doctor Cook, whose Offices are permanently
located at S65 Market street.
His private consultation rooms are dallv
visited by people not only of San Fran.
cisco, but from all over the West. They
come from every station of life. Among
them are bankers. lawyers, merchants.
mechanics, ministers, farmers, Iaborers
and literary gentlemen, many of whom
have repeatedly sought relief frcm other
physicians, and have repeatedly met with
disappointments.
While they go to Doctor Cook full OF
disease and dependency. they come away
from him full Of hope, confidence and ioy.
and feeling better in every way. From
that very hour they begin to permanentIy
improve. What the great specialist does
to them, or the kind of treatment he adj
ministers to them, is secret known onIy
to himself-a secret upon which his re-.
markab bic success is founded.
Inc vast volumes of testimonials in
DOCTOR Cooks possession are the stron gest
ana most convincing proof of his ability
TO combat and conquer ali the different
diseases that come within his speciality.
They show that he has cured numberIess
cases OF female com plants, mems private
ailments, rheumatism. chronic catarrh.
niood and skin diseases and functional
diseases OF the heart, lungs, liver, stom

fessional career. 1t is treatment known

months it has been tested on more than six

were tortured by the woes of nervous de-
bility or sexual decay. 1t has never yet
failed, even in the worst of cases, to bring
back manly power and to remove every
symptom of weakness.
There are several reasons why Doctor
Cook has won his way to the very front
rank in the practice of medicine and sur
gerry. All who consult him are satisfied
with his fair, honorable and upright meth
DDS. His extensive experience, profound
learning, and superb skill are also power
