salt pork-well, fat salt pork, even
of the best quality, is not desirable as a
steady diet Of food, and we got more
salt pork than any other meat, and it
was most always not of the best. In
fact, no old soldier will ever forget the
salt pork of the army. But his recOllec-

aurora borealis of delight.
Not everybody liked beans, but &C

DOGS OF INTELLIGENCE.
A strict sabbatarinn and . Traveller In
Hansoms.

Hansoms.
The Ladies' Kennel Journal consists
Of a number of dog anecdotes select
ed from many sources, new and old.
The stories are arranged TO illustrate
different features of tne dogs character.
Here is an example of what is called a
dogs ''~tenacity Of impression, vouched
for bv an Edinburgh minister:
"Ono sacrament sunday the minister
left his house to the care of the servants,
who thought il Il good opportunity to
give a party. During the day the dog
"a Ncwfoundland) accompanied them
through the garden, and indeed wher-
ever they went, Ill the most attentive
manner and seemed we'll pleased. In
the evening, when the time arrived that
the party meant 70 Sparate, they pro-
ceeded to do SO. but the deg, the instant
they went to the door, interposed, and,
placing himself before it, would not al
low one of them to touch the handle.
On their perslstlng and attempting TO
use force, he became furious and in a
menacing am drove them back into
the kitchen, where he kept them until
the arrival of Mr.. and Mrs. Simpson,"
From which it would appear that
some dogs are Sabbatarians. At all
events, he seems to have been Of opinion
that jewellers in "a mansc on sacrament
Sunday were out Of place.
Another story, illustrating the reason
of a dog. is quoted as having been told
by William Robson of Penshaw, the
owner Of the animal. The dog was in
the habit of going about in hanson cabs
with his master. One day, after being
lost. he went home by himself in a
hanson.
The cahman rang for his fare, and,
thinking he had somehow captured the
runaway, l inquired how and where he
found him. oh, SIR said cabby, L
didn't hail him at all; he hailed me. l
was standing close by ST. James church
looking out for a fare. when in jumps

he wouldn't stir. So | gets down and
tries TO pull him out and shows him my
whip, but he sits still and banks as

name and address. My fine gentleman
settles himself with his head just a-look-
ing ont, and drives on till I stops at
this gate. Then out jumps my passen-
ger, a-clearing the doors, and walks in
as though he'd been a regular fare. }"
The driving in cabs dog is by no
means a rare variety. 1t is told Of Lady
Ashlurnham's collie that, after jumping
into a handsom, be sc plainly intimates
that he wants his collar read that, as
one cabman said, ''Blowed if he didn't

happiness. The laws of heredity are infex-
ible. The mothers weakness will surely
show in some way in her child. A mother
can make her child life happy and success
full, or miserable and a failure. She can do
it by making and keeping herself perfectly
strong and healthy during the period Of ges-
tation. She can do this by taking Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. 1t is a most
wonderful cure for all forms of female weak
ness and disease, and perhaps its greatest
usefulness is in preparing for the trials and
dangers of child birth. 1t is A strengthen
ing, purifying tonic. 1t acts directly ON the
organs distinctly feminine, drives out all i'm
p~urities, promotes regularity and restores
cure any form of female weakness or disease.
1t is the preparation of a regular, medical
practitioner, whose great success as a spe-
cialist in the treatment of diseases of women
has made him famous all over the world.
DR.. Pierce is now, and has been for thirty
years, chief consulting physician in the

Complete information about the Favorite Pre-
