A crutch supported him as no

car. His checks were hollow, and a
hacking cough escaped him at times.
just in front stood hale young fell
low smoking. The fumes seemed to
aggravato the cough. Finally the
invalid nudged the offender and
grumbled:
Young man, you oughtn't to
smoke. "
Tho young man pulled violently
and then rotorted, Whose business
is it anyway-yours or mine?"
Thore was no response but fee
Bile "hack, hack ~ from the sufferer.
Once again it sounded, and then the
smoker wheeled about. "Oh, I beg
pardon" as he surveyed for the
first. time his invalid follow passen-
ger. "Cortainly!" and he threw the
cigarette into tho street."
For dozen blocks the car jingled
on in silence; then the whilom
smoker swung off. AS he started for
tho curb the invalid peered out and
shouted in conciliatory voice, Good
| night, young mani"
Good night, popn' was the
choery response, and the "haok,
hack!' was lost in the darkness.

Dumas Unfinished Plays.

M. Alexandra Dumas has left two
unpublished comedies, La Route to
Thebes" and La Trou~1ante. 1t
is now known, however, that moi
Their will ever see the light. Strict
lnjuDctions have been laid upon his
executors by M. Dumas to burn all
his unpublished manuscripts, The
decision is regretted by his admir-
ers, as great things were expected of
ono at least of these comedies, LA
Troublante," which had been read
to certain intimate friends, accord
ing to whom it was q masterpieoe of
wit and satire.
The fact is that as he got old Du-
mas, who was always a laborious
writer, polishing and repolishing his
sentences with infinite care, found
1t almost impossible to please him
self. Latterly he had complained to
NJ. Claretie that he was not well
enough to revise the play he had
promised to tho Comedio Franchise.
Not long ago, however, he wrote,
You shall have it before the end of
the year, or | shall DO dead" AS
was always tho case, adds M. Clare
tie, he kept his word. - London

1t was remarkable to SEQ how the
plumage of the birds gradually
changed into lighter and lighter col
ors as we drew southwark, altering
with tho colors of the surroundings.
Whether the birds, like tho polar
hare, also changed their color with
the seasons had not an opportunity
to notice, but it is clear that within
the antarctic circle also Mother Ma
ture takes care of all her children
and protects the defenseless from
the eye of their larger enemies by
giving them an invisible clothing.
1t was thus almost impossible to dis
cover the magnificent white petrol
when it was on the dazzling snow.
1t was likewise difficult to discover
the white seal when it stretched it.

Financial Astutcness of a Collie.

One of the features of q popular
West Side retail store is collie dog
that possesses the peculiar faculty
OF being able to distinguish by their
step or touch on the door latch peo-
pie who have the price" from those
who have not.
For an hour the other day there
was steady stream of people going
in and out of the store, but the dog
paid no attention to them. Suddenly
she jumped from her hiding place
and rushed to the door, barking fu-
riously. The door opened, and in
came beggar asking for aims, and
the dog kept snarling and barking
until he left. Then she retired to
her corner and remained fully ten
minutes, unmindful of the Corners
and goers, when suddenly she again
bounded to the door and began bark
ing. This time the visitor was one
of those insinuating individuals who
pretend to buy old clothes, and the
dog drove him out without a word
of command.
The owner of the collie says she
has never been trained to this trick,
and he has no idea how she picked
it up, but for years she has been
able to tell in some mysterious man
ner before she can see the person
whether he is patron or an obiec-
tionable interloper, and she has
never made a mistake. Chicago

CATS AND DOGS.
Tho Moods. Tempcrs and Natures OF the
Canines and EeIineA.

Caninss and Feliness
Ca1s DO nos take Punishment as
Cogs d. Their tempers rise, and if
struck they arc apt to strike back,
bus beyond q gentle cuff to q kitten
now and then fad 9 scolding or an
exclamation ofrebuke enough. They
are also less intelligent and forgiv-
ing than dog if Internationally
kicked or trodden on. There is no
more beautiful expression in dogs
face than tho look he turns to the
friend who has involuntarily hurt
him before there is time to explain.
His whole demeanor expresses the
highest magnanimity, not only the
foregone pardon, but the eager de-
sire that the offender shall think no
more of the matter.
In many respects oats are moro
like men and women than dogs are.
They have moods, and their nature
is complex. A dog is very much of
piece. Ho is good dog or bad
dog, brave or cowardly, honest Or
sneak. Tho canine intelligence is
much higher than the feline, but the
disposition is simpler.
Cats are exceedingly irritable by
temperament, sensitive to changes
of the weather, to frost, to thunder.
They arc exoitabls and naturally
disposed to bite and scratch whom
at play. There is curious tendency
in them, as in i'll balanced or ovor-
strung human beings, to lose their
heads when in high spirits, and the
self command most of them show
when full grown in resisting these
impulses is q striking proof of con-
scious responsibility. A full grown
pet cat scarcely over scratches
young child, no matter how much
mauled by it. Besides being irrita-
bic thoy arc moody and subject to
depression, probably physical re-
action from the former condition.
Princess, though not sullen cat,
would sometimes forsake the hearth
or veranda and pass days by herself
on garden wall or under a bush,
not i'll or oIt of temper, but out of
spirits, morbid and wishing for soil
tude instead of the sympathy which
she always sought in her real all
mentS and bereavements.
Her peouliarities, both of race and
individuality, were remarkably de-
fined, even when she held them in
restraint; but, with one exception,
all tho cats / have known are cap
tious. Their instinct when i'll or sad
is to be alone, but this Is entirely
noutralized by petting. They be-
como as dependent on caresses and
sympathy as children and much
wiser than children when they are
Ill or injured, as they apply for re-
lief with the most unmistakable
suggestions, sometimes Indicating
plainly whore they are in pain and
presenting the suffering member for
treatment. They are not so patient
as dogs in taking medicine or sub
uniting to surgical care, but show
their recognition of its benefit by
coming back for it under similar
circumstances Temple Bar

The Pet Goat.

There are few better pets for q
ship than well conducted goat.
She soon gets passionately fond OF
her quarters and will eat anything
from a banana to marline spike.
This goat became sadly debauched
character. She acquired in a few
days such taste for tobacco that
she would refuse the most entioing
delicacy in the way of green stuff
for the noxious weed, and indeed
she was never happy without guild
in her jaw. But this was not her
worst bad habit. No one on board
knew the grOg bugle better than
she, and punctually she was stand
ing beside the tub at one bell in the
afternoon watch, when two glasses
of water and one of rum per man
are served out to tho different
messes. There is naturally always
a glass or two left when all are
served! This was poured into q can,
the grog tub turned upside down,
the liquor poured into the shallow
bottom. Then Nanny drank her tot
like man. 1t was too absurd to
watch her conduct after this. She
would skylark with any one, charge
up and down the deck, butt anybody
who came in her way and, in fact,
play the "giddy goat all around
for half an hour or SO. Then, like
many depravcd human beings, she
would coil herself up in a corner
and sleep off the effects of her in
dulgences. Chambers journal.
