things that would be expected of a dog
with such a name; so he chose a simple
title for his pet and called him Rover.
That's an old name, )" said he. "and if
my dog does nothing grand, no one
will be disappointed in him. But l bet
he will be a fine fellow
Poor little Lillian was at a loss as to
what she should do in the matter of
naming her dog. She thought first of
naming him Spot, but that did not
seem appropriate; then Uno suggested
itself. What fun it would be to answer
''Uno" when people asked what the
dogs name was. But grandma did not
like that so much, and suggested Dash
So, finally Dash was decided upon.
Then came the training of the dogs
Every afternoon as soon as school was
over Harold, Ralph and Lillian hurried
home to play with their pets. Ralph
soon taught Rover to run away after
sticks that he would throw into the
yard or down the road, and he would
also take things in his mouth. But
there was one thing that Rover posi-
lively refused to do, and that was to
make friends with Mamie. They SEEM
ed from the very beginning to agree to
disagree, and friends no one could
make them
Dash however. learned to like Nan
ME quite a deal and often when Lii
liam was playing with the fine big cat
Dash would come up and join in the
game. And, too. he became so fond of
Mamie that he would never let Rover
fight her.
But Victor! Well he was just incor-
rigible you could not do thing with
him and he would never mind One of
the finest amusements that the children
had was racing with the dogs They
would all get out into the big broad
road and stand beside their dogs; then
Harold would count, "One, two, three"
and off they would run with the dogs
behind theml lillian and Dash sell
dom won a race, because Lillian would
get tired and stop running and Dash
would stop too. But Harold and Vic
tor and Ralph and Rover used to have
some spirited contests.
Finally Lillian lost so many races
that she became discouraged and said
that the boys ought to play something
else that she could win at Harold
and Ralph liked nothing better than
racing and were not willing to give up
the sport; so they begged Lillian to
lfy just one more time ana II she did
not win that game. they would find
something else with which to amuse
themselves.
IN the meantime Harold and Ralph
had gotten together and planned to let
Lillian win the next race.
Eat how viii we do about the dogs?"
sked Ralph.
I'll tell you" said Harold, joyously.
for he loved to be al the head of every
thing. 'we'll just do this: AT first we
will start off, and then when we shall
have gone little piece Of the way we
will slacken our speed and the dogs
will not run so fast either. Finally,
when Lillian gets little ahead Of us,
we will almost walk; but when she
gets nearly to the end of the race we
will run again so that she will not sus-
pect that we let her win.
On Friday afternoon the children
went out to the big road where the
great race was to take place
When all was ready Harold began to
count, but before he got to three some

The care OF Windows.

If paint or putty discolors the margin
Of the glass of windows dissolve some
crude bicarbonate Of potash in hot
water and saturate the paint adhering
to the glass. Allow it to remain on
until 1t is nearly dry, then remove it
with woolen cloth. Having removed
the CRIME from the glass; a mixture
made from the following ingredients
will give glistening results: One ounce
each of olive oil, ammonia and water,
and two ounces Of lime. This will make
a paste. The paste is to be smeared
over the glass and the window cleaned
in the usual way with warm water and
the customary clean cloths and leath-
ers. When the labor of the paste is
considered too great, dry whiting may
be used with very satisfactory results.

Stories are Lies and Their

Chiago, Oct. 5.-The following tele-
graphic correspondence between Secre-
tary Perry S. Heath Of the National Re-
publican committee, and overnor Roose-
welt was given out today at Republican
national headquarters:
Theodore Roosevelt: Following matter
being widely circulated on hand bills in
Kansas and other states:
Governor Roosevelt said in a speech
in Cooper Institute, in New York City. in
1895: THE way to get rid of Organism
and its child, labor troubles, is to stand
it up against the wall and shoot to
reath.''
And IN a speech delivered in Chicago
just after the great strike: Amy person
who would join a strike or go near one,
ought to be shot" VIII a man who
earns his bread by labor support the
Roosevelt ticket?
Please wire me today, If possible, spe-
cific answer to the above, so that I may
repeat it by wire wherever it is being
used.
(Signed) PERRY S. HEATH.

tee, Chicago, Ill.
Both statements are absolute lies,
without one particle of foundation of any
sort, character or description I never
said anything remotely resembling either
statement either in Chicago or Cooper
Institute or anywhere else. If responsible
people circulated them I would suggest
a suit for criminal libel. I explicitly de-
MED them in Kansas City speech. They
are slanderous lies which would only be
circulated by scoundrels and which were
known to be lies by the people who in
vented them and the people who circulat-
ed them.
