SCENTED DOG is LATEST
New York Fashionables Select an Ap-

Nowadays the pet dog must be per-
fumed, says the New York Sun, but It
is not enough to scent him with any old
perfume Modish women who con-
slider their pets try to select an appro-
pirate odor for them. Thus japanese
poodles are perfumed with frangipani.

suggests the oriental nativity Of the
animal. Mexican hairless dogs, which
are enjoying quite vogue just now, are
scented with chypore, which has a
heavy, tropical odor that suits these
dogs Of the south. Very little Of It Is
used, as the scent is powerful. Two or
three drops on the long hair behind the
head, where the dog cannot indulge IN
his tendency to lick 1t off, is all that f.
needed. The shaggy skye terriers are
scented with a stimulating extract Of
Scotch heather sold by one Of the Fifth
avenue druggists and redolent Of the
Scotch flowers perfume. French
pOodles, which are not nearly so popular
now as they used to be, smell delicately
Of some Partisan perfume. Boston ter

NO GIRLS IN THIS FAMILY.
For Generations Back Every Child
Born in Roesch Household
Has Been Male.

A remarkable condition in the family
Of Capt. Roesch, master of the barken-
tine Wrestler. is reported to exist. Fe-
male children are absolutely unknown
to the men of the family. According to
story told by Capt Roesch, for gen.
erations back every child born to the
family has been a male. Capt. Roesch.
Of the Wrestler, is one of four brothers.
He has three children and all Of them
are boys. One of his brothers had IA
children and another had nine children.
All OF them were boys. These boys have
also married and have families, but in
every instance the children have been
males. In no recent instance has a f.
male child been born to the men Of the
Roesch line. Capt. Roesch says that this
remarkable phenomenon has existed for
generations in his family. He says that
1t had come to be family tradition that
. girl child is never born to the name
Of Roesch.

BIRDS INITIATE ANIMALS.
Ostrich Leads the pathological Set
by Mimicking Roar Of the
Lion.

''The roar OF the ostrich resembles
the roar of the lion because the ostrich
stole from the lion this sound, even as
one playwright steals from another a
plot"
An ornithologist made that odd asser-
ton in a taxidermist's shop. He went
on to elaborate it as follows. SAYS the
Washington Post:
Birds from the ostrich down are ini-
tative. The ostrich, where he lives
alone, is silent, but in a country where
lions abound he roars. Why? Because
for centuries, admiring the majesty and
grandeur Of the lions roar, he gradually
learned to roar himself. Believe me. it
is fine to see an ostrich throw back his
little head and emit roar like thunder.
outings initiate pipits, and greenfnches
Initiate yeilowhammers. They seel,
their food in the winter together. and
they gradually steal each others calls.
The Jay is an Unsuitable imitator. Some
jays will include in their repertory not
only the whoo-oo Of the kite, the scream
OF the buzzard and the boot of the owl,
but also the bleat of the lamb and the
neigh of horse. Even the nightingale
Initiates. In a nightingale's perfect
song have often heard the tip-sip-sissis
OF the woodwarbler and the bub-ub-ub-
bic of the nuthatch."

ASK TIPS FACING DEATH.
In Two Instances in Which Lives We're
Being Lest Coin Was Demanded
Without Compunctlon.

Money is so hardly earned by the Paris
an workman and workwoman. and ex-
istence is such struggle, that we need
not wonder at the deadly tenaclty with
which earnings are clutched at. When
someyears ago the Opera Comique blazed
amid a scene awful as that of a battle
field, the women attendants thought of
their tips, the half-franc due here and
there for a footstool. Unmindful of their
own peril and that of others. they rushed
TO and fro, besieging half-suffocated,
half-demented creatures for their money.
A similar scene happened during the
terrible catastrophe on the Paris under
ground railway last year. Although the
delay Of few seconds might mean life or
death, many workmen refused to move
from the crowded station, claInoring for
the return Of the forfeited twopenny
ticket.

Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumPtive needs
most.

ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptiye. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachS.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hyPophos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has special
action on the diseased lungs.

that I should tell you what a won

Cough Remedy has produced.
The day before Easter I was so
distressed with cold and cough
that I did not think to be able to
take any duties the next day, as
my voice was almost choked by
the cough. The same day I re-
ceived an order from you for a
bottle of your Cough Remedy.
L at once procured a sample bot
tie and took about three doses of
the medicine. To my great relief
the cough and cold had completely
disappeared and I was able to
preach threetimes on Easter Day.
I know that this rapid and eff
fective cure was due to your
Cough Remedy. I make this tes-

Godsent remedy. Respectfully

A Revolution Under Our
Noses.
Among the many amazing
changes which have taken place
in the economic life of this coun-
try during the past few years,
none have been more wonderful
than the growth of the rural de-
livery system.
The rural delivery system is
the mushroom of yesterday but
today it IS oYer5l d wing IN i'm
portance the entire postal system
of the country. One year ago
there were $4,000 rural routes:
today there are about 10000.
while the hunger of the people
for the service is but whetted.
But more amazing than the rapid
growth of the service is the
transformation in conditions of
life which it is bringing about.
The farmer begins to be a reader
of daily papers. He is no longer
a week behind the world. He is
as fully informed on social and
political questions as is his neigh
Dor of the city and the part
which he plays in the settling of
these questions grows larger and
larger. The markets of the
world are brought each day to
his door and a great revolution in
trade follows hard upon the es.
Enlistment Of the rural delivery

We have suddenly found our
selves in the midst of a wonder

to measure how far it may go.

The Blackduck American says
that the Pioneer has not yet given
one reason why Senator Clapp
should not be elected. The
American is right. In fact there
are three or four which we have.
not given. It is enough that the,
republican party Of Minnesota
has twice pledged itself to the
senator's reelection and that
majority of the mem bers of the
legislature have publicly prom
ised to vote for Senator Clapp in
case they were returned. No
body denies that Senator Clapp
is an able man and that he has
worthily represented the state.
We believe that the republican
party should keep it's promises.
If the Pioneer were an active
personal adherent of Senator
Clapp it might give good. many
other reasons, but as it is the
above is sufficient.

IT Is most palpably artificial
Like DR.. Botkine, at St Petersburg, Sir Will
lam Jenner was celebrated for his kindness to
the poor. and recall old guinea piece which
he wore at his watch chain. and attached to
which was pleasant little story. One day he
found among his patients in his consulting room
a humble carpenter on remarking to the man
that his disease had. through neglect of treat
ment made great progress. he received the fol-
lowing reply:
u have been waiting tc see you for three
years. SIR"
why. my man. couldn't you afford to come
sooner?" queried the physician.
"Oh, yes" answered the carpenter. "but 1
couldn't get gold guinea piece anywhere
none had been coined for more than half CEN
tury-and 1 had heard that you take nothing
else"
Sir William from that time forth wore the
guinea In question fastened to his watch chain;
but. though he completely cured the patient in
the course of eight months. he never took an
other fee from the poor fellow who had striven
so hard to find this now rare coin, and who had
waited so patiently to consult him.
Let me add that physicians in England are de-
barred. not by law, but by etiquette, from suing
patients for the amount OF their bills. which
leads so many of them to cOnfine their practice
to a cash basis. In France there is such
obstacle placed in the way OF the recovery by
medical men of the amounts due to them In
deed the claims enjoy a priority Of all other
creditors. save those OF the law.

pensating physicians for their care and attention
