hundreds of times the ignorant partner
uses up a very unfair share of the
earnings of the firm, wholly uncon-

she did not calculate that twenty yards

There is a very great wrong done by
many fond wives in the loving desire
to spare their husbands pain, and with
a recognition that they are actuated in

Where wealth makes expenditure

TRAINING SHEPHERD DOGS.

AS soon as it is old enough, put it t.

to do you have no business with shep

belong to him, and he will become eager
and anxious to do it. If he is head
strong, or wants to 60 too far, or 60 to
the head instead of heels, make close

and have enough string to let the dog
go just rs far as you want him to 90 ano
no farther. Make him stop at your
command. BE prompt and resolute
but never whip or abuse; chastise, il
necessary, 10y pulling the ears or cutting
a little, but be careful Teach him tc

AS soon as you make him understand
what you want him to do, help him to
do it as near right as possible, and ca

right. Always tell the dog what YOU
