Chivalry of DoIs.

DR.. Woods Hutchinson tells num-
ber of new anecdotes to prove that ami
mails have a distinct sense of chivalry,
which reaches its highest developments
in dogs. Dogs seldom or never bite or
injure females or the young OF their
species, being, i'm fact, more chivalrous
in this respect than men. In hunting
the wolf the hounds almost instantly
give up the pursuit if they discover the
quarry to be vixen. 1t has been ad-
mitted always that animals have cour-
age and fidelity, but the traits have
been attributed to mere instinct, and
their virtues have not won any general
moral credit for the possessors. DIR.
Hutchinson says one of the most de-
lightful things about the human spe-
cies is ''its colossal but quite uncon-
scious conceit" in arrogating to itself
all the moral qualities. But this conceit
is giving way before the advance of
science, just as men no longer believe
that the sun and the stars were made
for the sole purpose of furnishing light
to people of the earth.-Contempo
