ptomaines or poison germs that set up

A RAILROAD DOG.
An Irish Setter That Used to Flag
Crossings on a Chicago
Engine.

The only ''active" railroad dog in
che country. the only one on the pay
roll of a railroad line. is dead. That
was Fido. who seven years ago, when
only a slip of a pup, was picked up
in the yard of the Chicago. Lake Shore
Eastern road, and, as the Chicago
Tribune says. chung to the place ever
after
One of Fido's accomplishments was
tagging crossings for locomotive No.
30. In the discharge of that duty,
three years ago. he prevented an
accident and probably saved the road
a lawsuit.
\ peddler was approaching the Wa
bansia avenue crossing when Fido
came along. looking. as usual, TO see
if all was well. The dog was so
wards ahead of the engine. and in
dog fashion he tried to warn the ped
dler of danger. The peddler, however,
paid no attention, but kept on. just
as he got within three feet of the
track, Fido jumped up and knocked
him back PROSTATE. A moment later
the engine passed. But for the dog
the peddler would have been killed.
When the president of the road
heard the story he put Fido on the
payroll. The dog got his wages in an
envelope every month. like any other
em7loye. and the men provided for
him lavishly besides.
Fido was an Irish setter. apparent
" with some claim TO pedigree; but
life about the railroad yards blunted
his finer feelings. and he became a
fighter that no dog could whip. Not
a man in the neighborhood would have
hesitated TO wager his money at odds
on Fido.
The dog had a system of his own
His was running fight. When an
other dog attacked him along the
road. Fido would manage to get his
assailant between himself and the
moving locomotive. which he followed
all the time. While doing this he
would watch for a chance. rise to his
best. and throw his assailant under
the wheels of the engine. Then he
would run ahead and flag crossings
just as if nothing had happened.
But it was in one of these fights
that the railroad dog lost his life
He disposed of his assailant in the.
usual manner. but in doing so he ran
too close to the track. and the loco
motive cylinder struck him and
knocked him under the wheels. The
railroad men shed tears when they
buried lido, and they intend that he
shall have a monument.

Keeping a Pledge.

A SharpsbGrg man who had been
drinking too much liquor for his own
good was induced to sign the pledge
the other day. His wife vas delighted.
She took the document and said:

So the paper was confded to her

The Wearin. of Tuck..

To be really fashionable one mus:
wear tucks. They are seen on every
thing, and the work on some of the new
blouses and bodices is enormous. Not
only are quarter-inch tucks closely set
in groups all over the bodice and up
the sleeves, but these are frequently
supplemented by tucked bolero and
by groups of tucks on the'skirt. Even
low cut evening bodices are arranged
with tucked draperies of Hsse. Some
times the tucks are horizontal, but more
frequently they are arranged to run
around the figure.-Philadelph Press.

ITO considersthis election az decisive
of the question would he a. absurd as TO
have regarded the election of 500 as de
cisiye Of the tariff question. 1t would
be more reasonable to regard the late
election as conclusive upon the question
o Imperialism or upon the trust ques-
ton, both Of which were discussed more
by our people than the money question.
But as a matter Of fact, an election is
not necessarily conclusive upon any
question.
Back Of all the questions which have
been referred to lies the deep and last
ing struggle between human rights and
inhumanrgreed. If greed triumphs its
victory will transform our government
into aplutocracy and our civilization
into barbarism.
Those who believe in equal rights

governed and deals justly with all who
are under its jurisdiction must continue
