A Dog Hero.

says a friend and admirer Of our ca

ever come to light, for they cannot tell

relates the exploit of a st. Bernard
The incident occurred recently at
Bloomfield, New Jersey.
Bruno is splendid specimen of his
kind, and his behavior in an emergency
has endeared him more than ever to his
owners heart.
The dog is deeply attached to a fine
pair of horses, one of whom is his spe-
cial friend. The dog has often led the
animals to water, carrying the end of
the rope in his mouth. His air of pride
and proprietorship on these occasions
has been the source of no small amuse.

Stops the Train.

With view to preventing accidents
at level crossings and collisions in the
neighborhood of railway stations very
ingenious mechanism has recently been
tried in France. It consists essentially
of a huge hook, or catch, made of iron,
which is connected with lever at the
station by means of a wire, through
which current of electricity passes.
When it is lying in its place the train
passes over it quite easily, but as soon
as it is raised it catches lever which
is attached to the engine. The lever
thus caught causes an air valve on the
engine to open automatically and ap-
plies the brakes at once. SO that the
whole train is brought to a standstill
within a short distance. In foggy
weather the use of such an apparatus
cannot be overestimated, as it is calcu-
lated to prevent train running into
another which happens to be delayed
at station.

WHY HE DID NOT PLEASE.


From the Louisville Times: About
the greenest apple on the bough is the
young fellow whose fond mamma is
trying to introduce him into society.
He is as awkward as bear, ali hands
and feet, and when sent to call on a
girl he glares around her parlor for
some means of escape, and looks like
ne was sitting on porcupine.
One of these young fellows paid a
party call on a beautiful girl in So
ciety."
Had a mighty pretty party, Miss
Bee.' he said.
THANK you," was the reply, "I am
glad you were pleased"
1T was real handsome party"
Again the hostess smiled affably.
Ma said she heard it was a splendid
party"
Now, tell you what, Miss Bee," he
continued, irrelevantly, don't you
know, when call on girl don't care
whether she's pretty or not. No; just
call anyhow. 1 don't care if she's as
ugly as SIM
Had the hostess been homely she
would have slain him for that, unless
she possessed sense of humor. AS it
was she put her fan before her face,
and history has never stated whether
the conversation and visit ended there
or not.

TO LEARN TO SWIM.

1t seems marvellous to me that more
women do not learn to SWIM" said a
girl at Narragansett Pier the other day
as she shook her hair over her shout
ders to dry in the sun. ''It seems such
waste of time not to utilize the days
at the seashore by acquiring the sci
ence of swimming.
Hard to learn? Not bit Of it. The
first thing is to learn to float. People
generally do not begin with that, but
think that one will have less fear If she
knows that she can float if by any
chance she should get beyond her
depth. It is harder for slender people
like myself, but stout girls ought to
float without difficulty. All you have
to do is to lie on your back, keep the
mouth and nose above water and keep
the lungs well inflated.
1t Is almost always possible at the
seashore to find some one who swims.
and swimmers are always delighted to
teach others. Sometimes, however, there
Is no one, and then one should not hesi-
tate to try it alone, of course taking
proper precautions. On the whole, am
tempted to advise girls who are exceed
ingly sensitive to try to teach them
selves. I have known a number give up
the effort because they thought they
looked awkward or ridiculous while
learning. It is good idea to practice
the motions in ones room until they
are thoroughly acquired. This will be
found to relieve the first attempts o.
some preliminary awkwardness.

ART IN DRESS.

The artistic faculty is one OF the in
lerited traits of woman. 1t is betrayed
in her earliest efforts at adornment of
her person and surroundings. 1t is the
temperament of woman, as well as her
natural birthright, to guard the beauti-
full in life, and to make her whole ex-
istence visible manifestation of it,
Civilization has given to her oppor-
tunities in this direction denied her in
the past, says the Ledger Monthly.
She has been emancipated from the
slavery of conditions which narrowed
and destroyed those possibilities of per-
sonal expression born within her. Yet
even in barbaric times she was not
blind to the influence of personal
adornment. The evolution of her dress
may have been from the rude blanket
and wild boar's skin to the modern
silks and furs Of unrivalled beauty and
picturesqueness; but there was al
ways, even in the beginning, a method
of wearing the garments that betrayed
the dormant gifts. She could be srtis-
tic even with the simplest and rudest Of
garments.
The art of dress becomes factor Of
Importance, not only in the life of the
woman who devotes her time to it, but
in all those who associate with her.
The expression of her artistic tempera-
ment may be manifested in no other
way than that of dress, and yet she
may produce an effect of unreasonable
Importance on the world. 1t is hardly
consistent to belittle the effect of wom-
ans dress even when carried to an ex-
IRENE, and thoughts of it absorb all
other considerations of life The paint
er is justified, according to human
standards, in devoting all his time and
strength to the production of beauty on
his canvas; and the poet, is considered
legitimately employed if he merely
strives to express in the highest artistic
form those thoughts and emotions of
love which come to him in the highest
degree. The decorator, the musician
and the singer are all appealing to the
sense of sight or hearing through beau
tiful forms of sound.
The woman who understands the art
Of personal adornment finds gratifica-
ton Of artistic expression in her dress.
she studies it from many points of
view; considers the harmony of colors
and style; views herself apart from her
personality and environments; and
finds in the whole work service of
love which is little lower than that
which the poet or painter feels for his
productions. Dress performs the dou-

would apply the ak to the underpin-

fore women meet the responsibilities

That is, if women are to have free
scope for their intellectual develop
ment during the present century, they
must abandon the cooking stove and
the pantry, the refrigerator and the
china closet, the kneading board, the
rolling-pin and the broom, and devote
themselves exclusively to what Nine
Schmahl regards as the higher pur-
suits.
How are they to do this If they ex-

the happiness for which the soul of
every good woman yearns in these

and still preserve domestic peace? Or,
to put it in broader way, will it be
