advise everyone whose vision is defec-

neglect of the eye and its needs will

show me mans dog l will tell you
what manner of man the owner is,
with particular reference to tempera-
ment and his moods. The melancholy
man, the man who grovels mentally
along the gloomier grooves, the pessi-
mistic man, who is always looking at
the dark side of the picture, all the
men who come within these unhappy
classifications rarely own a cheerful
dog. The dog unconsciously takes to
the ways of his master, and in his
moods initiates the masters way of
thinking. But turn to the dog of the
jolly, cheerful fellow. Watch him
show his teeth in laughter when the
master approaches. He is darting
across the yard ana dancing and frisk-
ing around the masters feet in the
happiest way imaginable, but he is
up to all kinds of FRANKS and does
all kinds of little things to indicate
the good nature that is in him. He
does as his master does and seems to
take the same general view of life.
These are small things, I guess, but
they show just how important ones
actions are in life. Even ones way
of thinking may influence ones dog
and change his whole view of life.

Rival for BiltmOre.

The famous residence of George
Vanderbilt at Asheville, N. c., known
as Biltmore, is to have a rival erected
by man who but few weeks ago
was a day laborer. Michael Minke.
wincz is the name of the new capital
list, and he has fallen heir to $4,000, 900
through the death of a relative in
Germany. He has gone to claim the
money, but before leaving secured an
option on one of the most beautiful
tracts of land in the suburbs of Ashe-
vile. 1t includes several thousand
acres, and runs out in The neighbor-
hood Of the famous Switzerland dairy,
which George Vanderbilt tried hard
to BUY before he purchased the Bilt-
more estate. The plans of this up
start, as he is called, have thrown the
Vanderbilts into a state of consterna-
ton, and there is promise of serious
social upheaval. An attempt is al.
ready being made by friends of the
New York aristocrats to secure the
vitiation of the option secured by the
German-Pole.

force of $4,000 armed and drilled
men for the rebel army in August,

you that this would have prolonged
the civil war at least two years, and
added to the cost in treasure and

the whole thing was a plot put up

snake so that it would scare the
maidens in order that he might get a

Joy to the hearts OF those who fish for
eels. The soft hnned creatures are

it is estimated that from the numer-

Friday night. A gentleman, residing
at Herndon, informed the CoLUM-

that single person had caught over
