A DOC WITH A SALARY.
He Is Regularly Employed as a Stree,
 Advertising Agent.

one of the familiar sights about tha
 business section and one attracting
 much admifing attention is a hand. some black, curly dog, which walks aIong With sedate dignity, wearing a nat on his head, spectacles on his nosa
 9 pipe firmly elenched between his teeth, and bearing large advertising s1gn on his back. This canine adyer- using agent, who attends to his busf- ness With a diligence, perseverance and deeorum which many of his hnman rivals might do worse than initiate is named Chester, and is the property of Ernest Jones, who usually accompanies him and who has trained him to the work Chester is about five years of age, and is partly Newfoundland, part " Gordon setter. He has the Ions. iu- ell3gont face of the setter, with almost human soft brown eyes, and the black. curly coat of the Newfoundland. the
 white an his breast being the only white bout him. He is quite accom- QIlshed, though his training dates but t little before Christmas. He can open doors, goes obediently and intelligantly on errands, can climb ladder, jump through hoops, and play leapfrog like a boy just out of school. He understands the sign language, and will obey command communicated to him by his masters fingers without spoken word. He is not only doci1e, but ex- ceedingly affeetionate, and is very po- lite. Bnt he is not without spirit, as ne showed one day when a mischieyous neRsJoy tried to take away his pipe, and succeeded in lno 3kfng it out of his mouth. He sprang upon the scared urehin and protested so vigorously and foreibly against interference that 1t took policeman to rescue his tormen- tor from him, the sympathy of all the bystanders being with the animal. He has deep sense of the proprieties, and will not go out of doors without his hat. He has cause for his dignifed pride and evident self-respeet, for he earns a regular salary. Now he has 8 companion in younger Newfound- land, who Is also learning the adYsr- Using business. This is a handsome dog, about IS months old, named Gro- yer Cleveland. He is being broken to hat and speetacles, but does not take 1 to them very kindly as yet, while Ches> ter rather rescnts the loan of his old hat, which he is compelled to make the ] newcomer.

TURKISH BOYS IN SCHOOL
Some Astonishing Yarns Taught the
 Young Students.

Young Students.
 The beginning of a Mahommedan boys school life is always made an occasion for a festival It oa3urs on his seventh birthday. The entire school goes to the new scholars home, leading a richly caparisoned and flower bedecked donkey. The new pupil is placed on this little beast, a4N with his hodja, or teacher, leading the children form a double file and escort him to the schoolhouse, singing Joyous hss ms. To a stranger the common Turkish school presents a singular scene. The pupils are seated cross-legged on the bare marble pavement in the porch of the mosque, forming semicirele about hodja, who is, as 8 rule. an old fat man. He holds in his hand stick long enough to reach every student. By means of this rod he is enabled not only to preserve order among the mis- chievous, but to urge on the boy whose recitation is not satisfactory. But as q rule, hodjas are lazy and often fall asleep. A half-grown boy, in the pres enee of Q missionary, who tells the story, asked the hodja: What makes 1t rain?" "t1p in the clouds" en swered this wise teacher, "our prophet Mahomet and the one who belongs to the Christians went into business to- gether, the profits to be divided. One night Mahomet stole all the profits and ran away. In the morning when the Christian god discovered his loss Ae rarsued Mahomet in his golden char lot. the rumb1ing of whose wheels makes the thunder. The lightning are the bullets of fire which the god shot after his fleeing partner. Mahomet, finding he could not escape in midalr, plunged into the sea- the Christian god followed him, the shock splashed the water out, and it fell to the earth Tn rain" The young Turks, believing the teachings of their hodja, grow mp With out further Investigating the causes or rain, the true source of which is t9ught an American child in the kindergarten ,.Boston Globe.

HUNTING FOR PEARLS.
Two Stars in This PeriIous Line pf
 Work.

Work
 Two fanous pearl divers recently visited San Francisco to buy a large quantity of air pumps, diving suits and like paraphernalia of the sea. Opu and Taipu are their names, and they are generally regarded as stars in their pefilods line of work. They were born on one of the islands of the Dan- gerous archipelago group. They speak good English, however, and both arc thoroughly familiar with the civiliza- ton of West Australia, where they nave sp4nt most of their lives as pearl hunters, says the New York Telegraph. Taipu is the principal native pearl merchant of the many hundreds who have embarked in tho trade since the natives of the Paumotu islands first dabbled in that form of commerce. He owns a pearling dredger and a ship; both are engaged in the trade in south western waters. His ship, however, s 8 mere hulk that travels less than ninety miles along the coast. They depend principally upon pearl shells for income, since to stake earnings on the pearls alone would be to invite loss. Valuable pearls are not frequent >aough to make it pay, but the con- : ereial motbef-of-pearI is made from sthe shells that they deal in When t comes to hunting for the real pearl there is not any kind of a scoop or 1redger than can take the place ot mems eyes; diving and treading the deep is the only way to find valuable pearls. ks rule, these are some dis tance apart, scattered over the rocky bed of the ocean. Sometimes a man will pick up a fortuna Il a few weeks md sometimes he will hardly make expenses in a seasoa. Pearling is still profitable, for the crude shells are sold at from $500 to $750 ton, and theze Is always a chance that diver may make enough iD eae day to quit for life We do not dive farther than sixty to 100 feet, said opu for the pressure Is too great. Even at thesa depths men cannot remain down over i've or ten minutes. and the average life Of the deep diver is short"

Spy to Cheat His Enemies.
 There is a pretty general impression that the work undertaken by the spy is invariably disgraceful work, and that the professional military secret service agent is more or less degrad- ed ereature-degraded that is, for the lime being, by the very nature of tho mission he undertakes. Of course, nothing could be further from the truth. There are spies and spies. The paid renegade, who for mere pay, un. dertakes 10 pry into and betray the secrets of his friends, stands upon an entirely different footing from the off, ger who, taking his life ii his hands, ventures into the enemy's camp in or- der to gratuitously to obtain informa' tion which may turn out to be of inf1n- lte Balue to his own intelligence de- eartment Lord Kitchener was a spy of this latter sort, and it was his eleY- erness, energy and resourcefulness in this capacity which first attracted to him the notice of his superiors. Alone and unarmed he plunged into the re" volted Soudan in the autumn of 1882 and succeeded in penetrating, disguised hs a peddler of hurra cakes, as far as 0mdurman itself. Here he saw fei- low spy stripped naked, logged till the flesh hung in ribbons from his body. and then crucifed face downward iG the blazing SUD. Ever afterward, f7 his Wanderings among the wild deser' tribes, Kitchener carried with him ? tiny phial of cyanide of potassium. As be tersely put it: T did not fear death --bu. sueh deathl'
