A Dog story.

Animals have sentiment, and they do
reason. Lord Sandwich had two intel
iigent, companionable little white dogs.
He was fond Of both. They were much
attached to him and devoted to each
other. One white pet fell sick, ana he
watched over the little creature. Bu9
no care suficed to save it, and lit died
The loving master said that he hin1seEa,
would bury the dog, and he did So.
The living Pomeranian stood by, griev-
ing as sincerely as the bereayed mas
ter. But the survivor could never
again endure Lord Sandwich, Stunned
him and was utterly irreconcilable for
all time. He thought that the master
had killed and buried his canine con-

SOCIETY KEPT MANAGES.

the Homes OF Ofhcinls.
One of the leading jewelers. Of the
capital was somewhat taken aback one
day, says a Washington paper. BY re-
ceiying from the wife Of a high official
an order for half a dozen gold nails
with jewel in the head of each and q
dozen small gold chains. He inquired
the uses to which the nails were to be
PIT, when his patron said:
| You see, | have number of very
valuable objects of art, which. al
though they are very expensive. are
very small and easily handled. AS the
wife of an official of the goyernme nt,
am obliged to open my house during
the season to the constituents Of my
husband and the Washington curiosity
seeking spublic in general On my re-
ception day, therefore, my house is
crowded with all sorts of people. and
last winter suffered the loss Of sew
eral Of my most valuable treasures.
Il have long been trying to devise
some plan by which can keep my
objects Of art outside of my cabinets
and yet not have them stolen, for that
is the only word can use in regard
to the loss Of my treasures. l have
concluded that must either nail down
some of the bric-a-brac or chain it Sc
curely to the table, and hence am go
ing to try this remedy. That is why
want these nails and chains"
This woman's predicament is not an
unusual one in Washington official cir
cles. The kleptomaniacs who commit
the most aggravated depredations are
for the most part well known leaders
in society.
One winter social circles in Wash
ington were greatly bewildered and
shocked by the doings Of one Of the
best known women in official circles.
A number Of hostesses began to miss
valuable doilies from their dinner ia
bles after they had given luncheons or
| dinners, and finally several Of them got
together and compared notes, and sus-
picion fell upon one of the women
who had been the guest at luncheons
given by those gathered at the confer
ence. '@

lomat determined to stop the raid upon
the doilies, and at the next luncheon
she seated the suspected kleptomaniac
next to her. When the doilies were
brought on, she watched her guest and
discovered that the latter laid her dolly
on the table and, carelessly dropping
her handkerchief over it, picked up
both.
The hostess, in a most charming
manner, turned to her guest and said:
pardon me, my dear Mrs. -, but
1 am afraid you have my most ex-
quisite dolly in your handkerchief. 1t
is so fine l am afraid it will be crush
ed and therefore call your attention
to your inadvertence in taking it up
with your handkerchief
The guest was not in the least abash-
ed, and with laugh she shook out her
handkerchief, and the dolly fell back
on the table, whereupon she exclaimed:
"Why, dear me, so have! How very
careless Of mer'
There were significant glances all
around the table, but no more doilies
were lost during that season.

remember to have once been taken
by a gentleman, on whom I had but
the slightest claim, to the. country
house Of another, on whom l had no
claim whatever. The latter was not at
all literary, and had not even the usual
vague English interest in American
affairs. Yet he gave up his whole aft
ernoon to drive me to Kenilworth,
which he had seen thousand times.
But that for which l liked him best,
and which afforded me wholly new
experience, was that as we entered the
outer doorway, he, going first, looked
back over his shoulder and said simply,
."They make you pay threepence for adj
mission here" and then added, speak
ing to the attendant, there is my three
pence"
After all the time and trouble he had
given to his stranger guest he left him
to pay his own threepence, a thing
which most Americans would not have
dreamed Of doing. 1t would have been
the American notion of good breeding
to save guest from expense, as it was
the English impulse to save him from
the sense Of obligation. confess that

One of the best possible manicure
acids is lemon juice, diluted with a lit

stains from the nails, but loosens the

STRANGE RECOVERY OF HEALTH.
How Frai Helpless Little Sufferer was Changed into Bright
ROsyCheeked School Girl
FROM the Huron Tribune. Bad Are. Mon.

4 gifted Michigan poetess, whose literary
work has given pleasure to thousands, has Just
made true and detailed statement of one OF
the sorrows Of her life and the strange manner
of its disappearance. The author is Mrs.
Annie II. Magee, of Port Austin, Mich, and
her remarkable statement is given in her own
words as follows:
"My daughter, Jean Magee, was fourteen
years Of age last August. She was always q
delicate child, had stomach trouble, nervous
debility and general weakness. From the age
of eight years she had been subject TO distress
after eating and frequent sick headaches She
had to be taken out of school and kept from
all study for nearly five years.
I" She was so extremely nervous that life
seemed at times almost unbearable. She
would say 'Ohl mamma, if / could only
sleep but as soon as she fell into a doze
some frightful dream would awaken her 80
that sleep was almost more dreaded than the
want Of it. At the age Of ten years she was
taken to DIR. r. c. Flower, Of Boston, who
said she had spinal trouble and gave her seven
months treatment. The spinal trouble was
cured, but the nervousness and stomach trou.
bic returned with such effect os TO render the
child very miserable. The bad dreams came
again.

ALBERT PACK DEAD.
Former Candidate for United states
Senator Passes Away ut His
Home in Detroit.

Detroit, June ALBERT Pack died at
his residence, 615 Jefferson avenue, at
6:15 o'clock Wednesday morning, from
the effects of surgical operation per-
formed last Monday. 1t was believed
Mr.. Pack would recover, but Tuesday
he suffered relapse, which proved
fatal. He was conscious and free from
pain until the end, and passed quiet
1y away surrounded by his family.

Michigan affairs for more than q genera

Y, November 10, 1912. When five years old
his parents removed 10 Lexington, Sanilac

for those days, and gave his children, 13 in

and at the age of % years was elected a
member of the lower house Of the state leg
islature. In 1870 his father removed to AL
pena, where he died in 1874. He had pur-
chased large tracts of pine lands. and in
his lumber camps Albert learned the busi-
ness that afterward made him rich. But
the father did not have much faith in pine.
He thought forest fires made standing tim
ber poor investment. Although Mr. Pack
was prominent in the politics of the state,
he never sought an office for himself until
last year, when he became candidate for
United States senator TO succeed J. c. Bur
