Beer in Factories.

So serious has the drawback oi beer

and so thoroughly is it recognized, that a
movement has been started to exclude the
drink from the factory premises. 1t has

ten pints q day in his shop. while the av-
erage is put at not much below a gallon
per day, excess being especially marked
among moulders. Several experiments

A new field Of usefulness has been
opened for especially intelligent dogs by
the keeper of the kennel in England. The
animals are trained to lead the blind, and
with this object in view they are taught
pace. To accomplish this result with a
Young puppy requires about two months OF
constant daily practice. The dogs are also
TAUGHT to avoid carts on the street, and
their sense of locality is developed to a
high degree. 1t takes about five months
to train dog in all branches of the work,
and when he has thoroughly mastered his
profession he is sold for $40 or SIS.

Coats of Arms Tabooed.

We second the motion of the New

that all Americans refuse to display
coat-of arms in public. The fact that
there is more fraudulent heraldry now
in exhibition than at any time in a
hundred years, will be an added incen-
tive, aside from the greater question
of good taste, for the desired reticence
on the part of those who have the
genuine coat-of-arms.-Bost Budget.

An artist was complaining to q friend
that American artists cannot afford 20
paint large pictures because they could mot
get prices that would pay for the work on
them. He said that those who. could ap.
preciate good pictures had not the money
to buy them, and those who had the money
could not appreciate the amount OF work
that must be put into picture.
Happening to- pass large house 1uss
then he said, on chance, "This man, tor IN
stance, would only buy small pictures, +
he bought any" The friend, who hap.
pened to know something OF the occgpant
of that house, dissented from this opinion,
saying that If that man bought pictures
at all he would want to buy them by the
yard. 8,
