DOG WITH GOLD TOOTH.
Philadelphia Canine of the ssBuIl's
 Breed Has Remarkable Mouth e-. Adornme ent.,

A well-known Philadelphia pet stock dealer some years ago hit upon 8 very odd and effective way to iden- tify a dog, says the Philadelphia Rec ord. The owner of this dog called on him and said:
 "Jack, my valuable bull is running away all the time. So far he has been traced and found in each of his flights, but it has been amatter of difficulty, and am afraid that some day he will be irretrievably lost be- cause of the lack of some positive and striking mark of identification. ?
 "You want.'' said the dealer. ga good identifying mark? We'll, I'll tell you what to do. Go to dentist and have gold crown put on one of the dogs front teeth. The crown won't hurt the tooth; on the contray, it will preserve it; and always 1t will be a mark whereby your dog will be readily known"
 The other did as the dealer advised. and since then there have appeared from time to time advertisements in the newspapers that began:
 :Lost-A bulldog with gold front tooth" "A. .

a wonder, but isn't there just as much sap in June as in March?"
 More, perhaps, but after about the list of April 1t has circulated all through the tree, and if you get any at all in the buckets it soon sours. It's when the sap is coming back up from the roots that 1t is sweetest. After the buds have started no one can boil the sap into sugar"
 What! Do you mean to say we didn't use to make sugar in May and JuneT'
 Tt wasn't possible. You are simply mistaken about the time. The season Is from about the 20th of February to the 25th of March. If it becomes very warm, the season is shortened"
 "Then I am a lunatic and a fool, am IY'
 "No, of course not As I said, you are simply mistaken as to the season. Any farmer will tell you that"
 Indeed! It seems that I have liv- ing encyclopedia for a wife Perhaps you can give me pointers on the plant ing of corn and potatoes. Did that wonderful father of yours SOW wheat in January"
 Mrs. Bowser had nothing to say in reply and after walking up and down for awhile MT. Bowser started for his hat and overcoat.
 Are you going out?" she called.

 My dear sir, did you ever live in the country?"
 "All my life till year ago." was the reply.
 "Did you ever make maple sugarY'
 ''Thousands of pounds"
 "What time of the year?''
 February and March, of course. I'll bet the sap was running to beat the band today. You didn't think any body tried to make sugar in July, did you?''
 MT. Bowser didn't call the man an idiot, though he felt like it. He turned for information.
 Maple sugar?' repeated the man of steaks and bones. "Why, I have gath cred and boiled more barrels of sap than you've got hairs on your head" Was it in May or June7'
 "Of course not. No one except a fool would try to make sugar in those months You might make buttermilk out of your sap, but you couldn't make sugar. Have you been buying farm? ?"
 Mr. Bowser turned red and coughed uneasily and left the store without re- plying. There was a plumbers shop next door, and the plumber was work ing at his books as the seeker after information entered and inquired:
 t'You know what maple sugar is, of course?"
 'T ought to- smiled the man, 'as I still own the old farm where helped make the sweet years ago. Do you want to buy a hundred pounds?''
 "No. I got into little dispute as to the season. I contend that it used to be made in May and June."
 "In what country"
 'In this, of course"
 ''Well, wasn't alive then. The peo- pie on my farm tapped the trees three weeks ago. and two or three weeks more will end the season"
 ''But it used to be May and June"
 "Yes? And geese used to have four legs, you know" Eta
 MT. Bowser got out without row, but he was not at all satisfied. He stood on the corner for five minutes and then tackled another pedestrian with:
 My friend, let me ask you ques- tion."
 "Well?' queried the man as he came to halt.
 Do you know anything about maple sugarT'
 By George, but that's funny. It wasn't over an hour ago that had dispute with my wife over maple sug- ar. She said it was made in February and March, and I said 1t was made in May and June."
 That's exactly my case, and know I'm right Have you looked up any authorities?"
 'T have and am now on my way home"
 ITO prove to your wife that you are right, of courseY

 "Then your father was an ass, and don't believe he ever made ten pounds of sugar"
 Mrs Bowser knew that she was right, but she thought to drop the sub- ject and avoid dispute. MT. Bowser wouldn't have it that way, however. After a minutes silence he said:
 T can remember one or two years when we were making sugar on the Fourth of July, but we generally end ed about the 25th of June. What was your father wading around in the snow for2'
 To tap the sugar naples"
 And did no one ever tell him better? He might as well have been looking for green corn in December"
 ''I have known of his making a hun dred pounds of sugar the last of Feb ruary," she quietly replied.

 From the sap of maple trees, of course" ''You happen to be right about it, for

Trust and Subsidies.

The collapse of the shipbuflding
trust IS eagerly attributed, as mat
ter of course, to the refusal of con-
Rress to pass the Frye. Hanna subsidy
bill. There is something in the plea.
It may not be doubted that with lib
erar subsidies of government money
this trust might not only have sur
vived, but have been able TO pay fat
dividends on the enormous valuations
of the Bethlehem Steel works and the
different ship building plants in the
combination. At the same time the
trust would have been enabled to pay
magnificent salaries to its officials out
of the treasury subsidies. The pub
lie need not have been told what kind
Of business operations flourish under
favoritism of the government but this
does not afford strong argument in
behalf Of ship subsidy. - Philadelphia

An Innocuous Trust.

The latest Industrial combination
is that Of the toothpick trust There
are six independent factories and they
have combined, their joint output
being 100, 600, 600 toothpicks day, or
more than one toothpick to every
man, woman and child in tho country.
This plainly proves that we are a
great toothpick nation, our consump-
tion Of toothpicks being something
marvellous. The price has steadily
declined until now 1000 toothpicks
are sold at Wholesale for two cents.
There is said 70 be 100 small a profit
at that price. and hence the combina-
tion. This is one trust against which
there will be no great ontcry. Tooth
picks are not a necessary Of life; in

tortionAte trust price everybody hav-
ing last resort to a penknife. =
