BULLDOG Is STRONG,
he Positively Has No Equal for His
Size on Earth.
You've Met Him Frequently, Hut Per-
haps You DO Not Know All His
Fine Points, which Are
Here Described.

In point Of strength, tenacity and
endurance no animal in the world
can compare. size for size, with a
well-set-up bulldog. Its fighting
qualities are, of course, proverbial.
Most people, however, only know its
exploits from the pictures in the
comic papers. Anyone who will take
the trouble to examine the peculiar
equipment of one of these powerful
little engines will end by having a
greatly increased respect for its quail
tiles, says the New York World.
The enormous strength of the bull
dog lies not so much in the size of
it's muscles as in their arrangement.
Years of careful breeding have de-
veloped great layers of muscles
where they may be used TO the best
possible bulldog advantage.
Compared with most dogs a bull
dog may be said to be deformed. The
head, shoulders and forelegs have
been developed at the expense of the
rest of the body so far as symmetry
is concerned. 1t would almost seem
that the breeders had gone out of
their way to produce as ugly speci-
men of doghesh as possible.
A bulldog, of course, never runs
away. There is no object, therefore,
in growing legs on him which would
give him speed. His appearance, on
the contrary, suggests a battering-
ram. The muscles seem to be placed
on the legs for pulling, not for prop
cling the body. In extreme cases
we find the bulldog bowlegged, which
gives greater power to drag heavy
objects or to resist being dragged.
The shortness of the legs by bring
ing the body as near as possible to
the ground, also suggests great sta

bility. In training bulldog it is
found that all superfuous flesh dis
appears more quickly than in the
case of other dogs, and that bull
dog in condition carries less super
fluous weight than any other breed.
The heaviest layers of muscles are
laid on the bulldogs head and neck.
The efficiency of fighter is, of
course, measured principally by his
quickness and the strength of his
jaws. Every well-set-up dog, 1t will
be found, has thick bunch of mus
cles at the side of its jaws. In any
other breed of dogs this abnormal
development would be considered a
deformity. It is this powerful little
group of muscles which gives the jaw
its vise-like grip. The form of the
jaw is particularly well adapted to
the work it is called upon to do. 1t
is long and broad and set with un-
usually heavy teeth.
The two long teeth which help to
give the bulldog its ferocious APP
pearance are also very valuable weap-

up the vise-like jaws when they are
once closed upon an object.
The most powerful muscles in the
entire frame of the bulldog are those
which control the jaws. In case the
prey, whatever it may be, slips from
this grip, it is certain to be caught
and held by the interlocking teeth in
the front of the jaw.
Almost any bulldog, whether in or
out of condition, can support it's own
weight by the grip of it's jaws. The
marvellous tenacity of this grip is
largely due to its ability to hold its
own weight by the grip of its front
teeth.
Even the young bull pup can lift
its own weight by the grip of its
jaws. AS the dog grows this grip
becomes so strong that a bulldog
may be swung and jerked about vio-
lently without disturbing its hold.
The muscles come to maturity
about the fourth year. A bulldog is
considered capable of doing its best
fighting in its fifth and sixth years.
The average life of a bulldog is

cure for seasickness. In addition to
a light diet and a mild purge before
starting on a voyage, and loose
clothing and a recumbent position
in the open air on board ship, the

GOOD WORK

Ever heard Of the man who
sold his horse because it was
growing thin? After awhile
he saw a fine looking horse he
wanted to buy. 1t was his
own old horse grown fat. The
new owner had found the right
medicine.
SCOTS Emulsion does that
kind of work with sickly chill
dren. Sometimes it changes a
child's whole nature SO much
one would scarcely know the
child. SCOTS Emulsion starts
the small ones to growing like
weeds. The scrawny ones get
hearty and fat. Color begins
to show in the pale face.
SCOTS Emulsion does this
good work without hurting the
little stomachs. No extra bur-
den. All help.

BIG ADDITION TO HOBART.
Queen City of the Southwest Having
Bio Lot Sale.

Hobart, o. T., Jan. 25.-Hobart was
opened August 9Th, on the Mangum
branch of the Great Rock Island route,
in the very heart OF the IIiowa country.
surrounded by the very best and most
fertile land of all the new country.
With handsome stone and brick blocks
now in course of constructions. with
volume Of business rivaling older and
larger cities; with a trade from the old
counties OF Greer and Washita; with
population of 4,0o0 of the most enterpris-
ing, pushing. hustling people that was
ever gathered into the folds of a single
city; with new north and south railroad,
the 3. E. & S. W, which is part OF the
Frisco system, giving a direct route to
st. Louis. now building through the city
limits; with waterworks and sewerage
system incorporated and starting work,
giving the city a fifty thousand plant:
with an electric light plant and tele-
phone exchange in operation; with
hundred and fifty-thousand dollar cotton
seed oil and ginery in the course of con-
struction by Waggoner & Son, the Texas
capitalists; with a thirty-thousand dollar
ice plant nearly completed; with the
Moore Mill and Gin company buying lots
for the construction Of thirty-thousand
dollar mill and gin; with the Chickasha
Oil Mil company on the ground, deter
mined to construct a gin that they may
get their share Of the trade Of this fer
tile valley, Hobart bids fair to become
the distributing point, the metropolis OF
the southwest.
The predictions of the conservatives at
the time of the lot sales by the go gern-
ment have vanished like a mist; in that
not a single individual has purchased a
lot but could be sold at a handsome
profit today. and all real estate has adj
vanoed in price from 50 TO 200 per cent
in the last thirty days, and the only
drawback to the sale of property is the
fact that there is not sufficient land
within the townsite to answer the fast
growing needs Of this thriving city.
As there is only $40 acres in the present
government townsite the people have
adopted a novel manner to increase their
townsite and give the people the benefit
Of the same They have purchased an
additional one-half section OF land, which
even then. with the addition is hardly
half as large as any city of its size in the
territory, and are selling the lots to one
and all at SO per lot, the proceeds to be
given TO the B. Z. & S. w. r. r. for
their bonus for entering the city. and TO
other public enterprises.
AS most of this property lies within
four blocks Of the public square. and viii
be worth ten times what the people give
for it, the lots are being taken like hot
cakes, and all who want TO take advant-
age of this splendid offer should do so
at once.
There viii be a public drawing for the
position Of the lots. so that one and all
viii have the same chance, and there VIII
be favors to none.
Those desiring lots are sending s. in
cash to ]. a. Hyndman. Secretary Hobart
Railroad and Townsite company, and he
is returning receipts and notes to sign for
the S25 balance.
