Stray pigs, cows or horses foraging

pounded by Triggton and the owners
mulcted for their keep Frolicking
dogs which had ventured upon the
Triggton estate had been found mys-

the vicinity Of his house had failed
to return to their roosts, and the va

The Clayesmore School, at Enfield,
England. is trying a curious experiment
in allowing its pupils to keep dogs. A
kennel club has been formed with a
master for its president, and every boy
is responsible for his own dog and the
state Of its kennel. The head master
writes: 1T has been found that the
care of dogs is a sound means of moral
discipline to the youth of mankind,
while thoroughly agreeable to boyish
inclinations. Every one knows how
dearly an English boy likes to keep a
dog, and under proper supervision the
possession of such a pet tends to make
him kind to all animals. while it also
enables him to enjoy the open air, and

According to the Brooklyn Eagle a
man died the other day in a hotel in
New York City, al which he had lived
for many years. When he was carried
out i'm his coffin ii was the first time
for over five years that he had been
without the walls Of his hotel There
is scarcely a considerable hotel in a
large city that cannot point to guests,
as they are called, Of similar habits
of seclusion. Perhaps the case cited is
an extreme one, but inquiry at any
large hotel is likely 10 develop the fact
that among the permanent guests
there are one or two who will not step
on the pavement o2tside the door for
weeks at time. As a rule these men
are bachelors or widowers, having no
immediate family and no business oc-
cupation. Each large hotel is a world
unto itself, and it by no means follows
that these people are recluses. AS a
matter of fact, they find all their wants
supplied under the roof. Apart from
the demands Of nature, they may find
human association, amusement ex-
citement and even conviviality within
doors. The necessity for going abroad
does not exist.

Within that other place Of graves
The wild rains tall, the wild wind raves
In every duslIy alley met
Sad ghosts, who beat an aching breast
With anguished longing and regret,
Remember that they once were blest,
The heart gone out of them, the soul
Fled onward TO some unknown goal.
For them no glad and further year,
Ashes the rose, and beauty sere,
Without a wish except to hll
Their eyes wit dust-the dead who still
With ruined hope and joyless mirth
Go to and fro upon the earth
