BULLDOG RESCUES A CHILD.
Terror of Neighborhood Jumps Into
Lake After Little Boy and
Brings Him Ashore.

Affection proved stronger than nat
ural instincts in the case of a bulldog
at Peacedale, R. l., when the animal,
feared generally for its savage temper,
jumped into the water and saved the
life of a little boy. The devotion of the
two for each other has been the subject
of comment about the neighborhood,
for, though the boy is only two years
old, it has been found that he never is
safer than when with the big bulldog,
and while few grown men outside the
owners family care to have anything to
do with him, he let's the child, who is no
relation of the owner, play with him and
pull him about as if he were a kitten.
The boy, Edward Mcclure, was play
Ing neal a brook, and. as usual, the bull
dog was not far away. Suddenly the
child, reaching for a toy boat, slipped
and fell into the water. No one was
near, and the boy must have been
drowned had not the dog jumped in and
caught his clothes in his teeth. The
bank was too steep for the animal to
climb out with his burden, but, true to
his breed, the dog held on pluckily,
swimming round with the child until
some men who had seen the accident
from a distance ran up and pulled the
pair out.

When It Comes to Frying Into Things
Tom Has No Equal, Says
His Master.

Speaking Of cats, | have one at DJ
house that is simply a marvel when il
| comes to prying into things" said
man who is fond Of animal study, in
the New Orleans Times-Democrat
land it is really interesting to watch
him. If there is anything around the
place he doesn't understand it is be-
cause it is new, and hasn't been there
long enough for him to inquire into it.
Generally when anything new is
brought into the house he Immediately
attempts to look into it. If the thing
is wrapped up so he can't get to it, he
will do his best to find out what it is,
and if he fails to reach any satisfac-
tory conclusion at the time he will wait
until some more suspicious time. Tbs
other day Tom discovered for the first
time that a couple of pictures of dogs
were hanging up in one of the rooms.
Since that time we have not been able
to see any peace around the house.
He Is simply crazy to get to the pic
lures. He, no doubt, recognizes the
fact that his old enemy is bodied forth
in the pictures, and it may be that he
thinks they are alive and want to
make a rough house, if l may use a
slang saying.
"At any rate. he is always clawing at
the wall and whining and jumping up
on chairs and doing other things to in
dictate that he is simply dying to find
out something about the dog pictures.
| suppose we shall have to take the
pictures down and allow Tom to salts
fly himself as to the nature Of them.
Tom has manifested another evidence
of the curious part of his nature. II
the members Of the family are scat
tered in different parts of the house
and happen to be talking, he simply
runs from n group to another. He
seems to be afraid he'll not hear all
that is being said, and he nearly runs
himself to death going from one group
to the other. l cannot say how much
of the conversation he understands,
for l do not know definitely the extent
of Toms vocabulary, but I know he
takes an immense interest in all that
is being said. Let the conversation
turn on a humorous point and produce
a hearty laugh, and he will enter into
the spirit of the thing and will appar-
emily laugh with the family. But this
is all beside the question. l was
merely speaking of the fact that Tom
is inordinately curious and l may add
in conclusion that | have seen but few
human beings who were so keenly GU
rious as this little family pet"

s'So-so."

I saw a little chap one day
Who loitered slowly on his way:
No snap nor vigor in his pace,
No sparkle on his smooth round face.
He stopped sometimes to trim a whip,
Or white at a roadside chip;
But everything he tried, alas!

"We have two minutes when the bell

food is scarce. Then wolves will at.
tack horses, pigs and cattle. When a
lot of hungry wolves get together they
are afraid Of nothing, and will some
times fight men as we'll as all kinds OF

Farmers hunt wolves because they
steal sheep. That is why there are
very few wolves now in the well set
tied districts. O. the western plains
and in part of Canada there are places
where there are many wolves; but

Little Bit Shy of Service.

Donald's father is a clergyman. A
short time ago he preached a sermon
the theme of which was Training the
Affections" Donald was in the audience
and an attentive listener. The preacher
said, IF your child tells you he loves
you, give him some service to perform;
for love strengthens by service" That
afternoon at home Donald sidled up to
his father as if about to hug him, and
then drew off with a roguish look in his
blue eyes. What is it, SOM" said the

IT HE greatest discovery which man
L eve makes is the discovery of him
self; that is the discovery of his true
condition and need before God. Man
never does this of and within himself.
1t takes the Word of God to reveal it to
him. David never knew what manner
of man he was until he had looked into
the mirror of Gods Word and there he
saw reflected and revealed his true like
ness. And as he realized what he had
thought he was and then what God had
revealed him to be he exclaimed: who
can understand his errors?" And the
answer throughout the ages has been:
No man! No man can know himself ex.
cept as God reveals that self to him
through His Word. And with the rev.
citation comes the consciousness of hope
less and helpless state of sin, and the
prayer: Cleanse thou me from secret
faults" David as he uttered this prayer
saw the blood of the sacrificial lamb as
it pointed to the coming Of the Perfect
One who was to become the Lamb of
God to take away the sin of the world
And to you and to me comes the revela-
ton Of the saving and keeping Christ
And the note of true harmony Is then
struck. LET the words of my mouth
and the meditation of my heart be &C
ceptable in Thy sight, o Lord, my
Strength and my Redeemer." We rec
ognize the harmony which exists
between God and obedient Nature.
Oh, that we would realize and rec
the harmony which should
exist between God and man. But
such harmony can only prevail as we
follow the example of obedient Nature,
and in turn become obedient to Gods
and Gods will. What a world this
be if we would!
