THE WHITE LIE.
Truly. the Tongue Il often 'ral OF
Deadly Poison"

Although the law takes cognizance
OF direct slander, and the culp 1T
may be. and in any instances is,
brought TO account, there seems to lie
no redress, for the lie which Is half a
truth, is ever the hardest to fight" and
which does vastly more mischief than
the direct falsehood, which may be met
and conquered. says the New York
Tribune. The hardest part of such
Injurious gossip is. that the tale, or
insinuation. or whatever 1t may be,
emanates generally from among the
victims own familiar friends; some
one who often has no realization OF
the harm she-for. alack, II is often a
woman-has done. but not infrequen;-
ly also rather enjoys the situation. In
every community there exists one or
more OF these born mischief makers.
who are the stormy petrels OF society,
as 1t were. and who seems always to
be the harbingers Of some trouble
wherever they go. Whenever see
Mrs. u" said one OF her acquaint-
ances. Il know that She will have
something TO say that will leave me
with disagreeable impression, which
Affects my opinion, and. rather, per
haps, my liking for some one else: for
although ! know that whatever she
says may be taken with a grain OF salt,
still she generally has something TO
start on. and one never knows Just
where the line between truth and-to
put It mildly-gross oXargeration is
drawn" Such people are the curse Of
society. They breed trouble wherever
they go. and yet they can rarely le
held to account, because there Is gen
orally a minimum Of truth in their as
sertions, but they so twist and con-
tort the simplest remark. or put such
a construction on some thoughtless but
innocent act, that they seem absolutely
different from what was originally In
tended. Truly. the tongue no man
can tame. as It is an unruly member,
full OF deadly poison when belonging
to a social mischief maker.

RARE CASE OF BUSINESS HONOR
Amos +. Emo of New York Pays $500. 900
to Settle Debts Of War Time Failure.

The most remarkable case of busi-
ness honesty and conscientiousness
ever known has come to light in the
action of Amos +. Emo of New York,
who. at an estimated outlay of $500
600. is paying OFF old claims against
firm in which he was member, and
which failed two weeks after the out
break of the civil war. Before the war
Amos X. Emo, now of the Fifth Ave
nue. hotel, was the head OF the FIRM
of Emo. Roberts. Rhoades 4 Co. In
1857 his son. Amos +. Emo, succeeded
to his fathers interest. In 1859 the
firm dissolved. and was succeeded by
the firm OF Emo. Bcuren 4 Nalentine.
Amos +. Emo being at its head. 1t
did most extensive business in iiicks
dry goods, its customers being almost
entirely in the South.
At the outbreak of the war the
southern merchants refused to settle
their balances. Many firms crashed.
and two weeks after Fort Sumter was
fired upon the firm of Emo Benr.n \
Valentine went down. The stock and
business We're sold, and the procceds
proratcd among the creditors, who
gladly signed release on receipt OF
the small dividend thus secured. The
firm passed out of memory, but after
the war Mr.. Emo rc-cmbarkcd IN bust

Nothing more was ever thought Of
the old firm and its debts until quite
recently. when Mr.. Emo began ulstrib
uting checks among the old creditors

since 1861. He cnjoincd confidence on
the receipt OF each check, but the cxhi-
hp
news leaked out. Mr.. Emo positively
refuses TO say word about l.. Many
of those who have received tie checks
know nothing about the old claims, be-
ing sons, nephews and grandchildren
of the original creditors of the old

THE PREHISTORIC DOG.
Breeds Known In Europe rhpusands of
Year, II. q.

In the Roman period not only were
sight hounds and scent hounds fully
differentiated, but there were also va
rious kinds of lap dogs and house dogs,
although none quite like our modern
breeds says knowledge. Even as far
back as about 5000 B. c., Egyptian
frescoes show not only greyhound-like
breeds. but one with dropping ears like
= hound, and third, which has been
compared to the modern turnspit; while
house dogs and lap dogs came in soon
afterward. Whether any OF these are
the direct ancestors Of modern breadt
or whether all such have been pro-
duced by subsequent crossing Is very
difficult question to answer. more es-
pecially when we recollect that II an
ancient Egyptian artist had to draw
the portrait OF a modern dog 1t would
be very doubtful whether 1t would be
recognized by the master or mistress.
But the record of the antiquity OF do
mesticated dogs does not even stop with
earliest known Egyptian monuments.
Not only were such breeds known i'll
Europe during the iron and bronze ages
but also during the antecedent neolith-
ic or polished stone period. Those
have been described by Profs. Ruti-
meyer and Woldrich. and those who
are acquainted with the difhculty Of
distinguishing between some Of the
living species by their skulls alone will
understand the laborious nature OF the
task. Still these authorities appear
to have made out that the Swiss neo-
lithic dog tCanis palustris) had GER
tain cranial resemblances to both
hounds and spaniels and thus indicated
an advanced type, which is considered
to have been derived from neither
wolves nor jackals. but from some spe-
cies now extinct Two other breeds
have also been recognized from the
superficial deposits of the continent:
and II, as is very likely to be the case.
any or all of these races are the fore
runners of some of the modern breeds
1t will readily be understood how COM
plex is the origin OF the mixed group
which We now call canis familiaris.
