THE WIND IN THE CHIMNEY.

And chanted n melody no one knew.

And thought of the one she had long since lost
And said, rs her teardrops back she forced.
II hate the wind in the chimney"

And chanted Il melody no one knew.
And the children said as they closer drew
'Tis some witch that is cleaviug the black

It's some witch that Is cleavng the black
And we fear the wind IN the chimney. "
Over the chimney the night wind sang
And chantod melody no one knew
And the man ia he sat on his hearth below
Said ia himself, ut will surely snow,
And fuel Is dear and wages low,
And IN stop the leak In the chimney"
Over the chimney the night wind sang
And chanted melody no one knew.
But the poet listened and smiled, for he
Was man and woman and child. all three.
And he said. alt is Gods own harmony,

DOGS IN WAR.
How the st. Bernard Ministers to the
Wounded Russian Soldier,


In the present day the British army
seems the only one in which dogs are
not trained either as spies, messengers
or to help the wounded. The Germans,
French, Austrians, Russians and Ital-
ians have all found them to be worth
the trouble. Tho Germans have devoted
themselves chiefly to the training Of
dogs for carrying messages to and from
ontposts and piekets and the main bodies
of troops For this purpose they find
pointers are tho best, but Scotch sheep
dogs and short haired sporting dogs are
much liked, as are also tho clever little
Pomeraninns, which learn very quickly
and are very strong and swift. In the
German army the best trainers are the
mon of tho jaeger regiments, and spe-
oial officer and special body of men
are told off to look after the dogs. They
are taught to march without frisking
about, to avoid barking, but, with their
wonderfully quick ear to warn If stran-
gers arc near, by pointing or by low
growl, They are trained to carry mes
sagos up to az miles by known roads,
and beyond that distance to find their
own way across country. To in the
same uniform they arc taught to be
ohedient.
In the Russian army kind Of big st.
Bernard mastitf is used; also wolf and
sheep dogs These, equipped with a
flask containing brandy or soup land u
packet of bandages hung round their
nocks, are taught TO find out the wound
ed lying among bushes or uneven ground
and to offer them restoratives, standing
meanwhile with their forefeet planted
and barking to attract attention. They
are even harnessed to little handcarts.
