THE BULLDOG a COOP DOG.
Yet We Do Not Care to Take Liber-
ties with One.

No member of the canine family has
been more persistently maligned than
the bulldog. Writers who have no init
mate knowledge Of the dog and his at
tributes have described him as stupidity
ferocious. and illustrators have pic
tured him as a sort of semi-wild beast,
I'll the general public has come to look
upon him as dangerous. says Outing
Give a dog q bad name" is an old
saw and perhaps true one, but when it
is applied 10 the bulldog, it is manifest
~ unjust. Writer'S, too, have fallen into
grave error in claiming that the bull
dog is deficient not only in affection, but
in intelligence.
No greater proof of the fa,sity of the
latter could be given than was wit
messed at the late Westminster Ken
mel clubs dog show, when Col. Shuts
exhibited his trained dogs. with the
bulldog Nick performing all sorts of
wonderful feats, especially that of
walking tight rope. and, when in the
center Of it, turning round and retrac-
ing his steps, amid the applause of an
admiring audience.
Stonehenge, who is considered one of
the greatest of canine scientists, claims
that the bulldogs brain is relatively
larger than that OF the spaniel, which
dog is generally considered to be the
most intelligent OF the canine race.
while the bulldogs affection is never to
be doubted,

JUDGED BY THEIR WALK.

Pace Sometimes Indicates the Char
acter of the Girls.
You have seen the woman who Jerks
her head as she walks, suppose? The
habit is not uncommon, and on close ac-
quaintance you will find that woman
so afflicted is given to fickleness. She
trifies a little too much with love, and
is just the woman to miss good hus-
band and be sorry afterward, says the
Boston Traveller.
The quiet man will never be happy
with the woman who digs her heels into
the pavement and scurries along as if
She were running a race. She is bust
ness-like and most likely the oman to
succeed in trade affairs, but her man
ner is one of those simple things that
worry the quiet man to death.
The girl who cannot walk without
skipping is very cheerful girl and en-
joys life with much the same gusto as
the girl with an elastic step who tips on
her toes at every stride. But perhaps
the girl we like most is the girl with the
brisk, musical walk, who loves TO peep
for moment into shop windows and
then walk briskly on, and who goes
through life with the fixed resolve of
getting the most PLEASURE out of every
thing.
