A DOG WITH 4 SALARY.
Re Is Regularly Employed as a Street
 Advertising Agent.

One of the familiar sights about the business section and one attracting much admfrfng attention is a hand some black, curly dog, which walks along with sedate dignity, wearing a nat on his head, spectacles on his nose. pipe firmly clenehed between his teeth, and bearing large advertising eien on his back. This canine adver- Using agent, who attends to his busi- ness W.5h diligence, perseverance and decC9um which many of his human 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 ly Gordon setter. He has the long, fu- fellt9ent face of the setter, with almost numan soft brown eyes, and the black, curly coat of the Newfoundland, the white nn his breast being the only white bout him. He is quite accom- Qlished, though his training dates but little before Christmas. He can open doors, goes obediently and intelligently oa erfands, can climb a ladder, jump through hoops, and play leapfrog like a boy just out of school. He understands the sign language, and will obey a command communicated to him by his masters fingers without a spoken word. Te is not only docile, but ex- ceedingiy affectionate, and Is very po- lite. But he is not without spirit, as ne showed one day when mischievous 1ews5oy tried to take away his pipe, and succeeded in kno ekIng it out of his mouth.
