Dogs Always Honest.

s"There is one peculiar thing about
dogs" remarked a well-knOwn local
fancier and huntsman, "and that is
you never saw one pant and wag his
tail at the same time. A dog is not
capable of double emotion. He can't
growl and wag his tail at the same
time, for it is impossible for him to be
mad at one end and glad at the 9TH
er.
EFF dog is glad to see his master
he will bark and wag his tail. If he
wants to get into the house he will
paw at the door, whine and wag
his tail, but they are all symptoms of
one and the same emotion. But if his
master opens the door he will cease to
show anxiety Immediately by whining
and will show pleasure only by the
wagging of his tail.
''In order to get a mans temper one
must watch his eyes, but for a dog
you have to watch his tail. The dog
is likewise incapable of deceit and
hence he is nothing of politician. He
deceives no one, not even his master.
If he is overjoyed every emotion is in
dicative of that fact, and his whole
makeup gives ample testimony to it.
If he is displeased or angered it is the
same way."-Boston Post.

Boston Is Bic.

Taking SO miles as the basis of
measurement, Boston in the 1895 cen
sus stood second only to New York
as a city Of Importance in the western
hemisphere. On that basis of meas
urement New York served a popula-
ton of over 4,753, 600. Boston was sec
ond with population Of 1892, ,294,
Philadelphia third with a population
of 2,289, ,314, Chicago fourth with a pop
ulation of 1,7SS,355, and st. Louis
fifth with population of S74 ,486 In
the five years from 1895 to 1900 there
was an increase in population within
Boston's SO mile circle of almost half
a million, and it is quite certain that
the state census now being taken will
disclose population for a circle of so
mile radius, of which Boston is the
centre, in excess Of 3,000,000.-New

Corn for Young Pigs.

At the Wisconsin station an ex~erl-
ment was conducted to determine Lie
effect of feeding corn to young pigs.
Two lots of pigs consisting OF three
each were used in the experiment.
One lot was fed cornmeal. The pigs
were given all the meal mixed with
enough skim-milk to make a thick
slop. These pigs were at an age when
they should have been growing Done
and muscles and the corn-fed lot were
given unnatural treatment. The mixed
feed lot made profit four times as
great as the other, made four times
as much gain, and their thigh bones
were so percent stronger. Corn is
one of the best feeds that we have to-
day, but those who use it with certain
classes of animals would do well to
always bear in mind that although 1t
is an Al food it's use should not be
abused when feeding it to growing

The Slow Horses.

The farmers and stock raisers OF
this country would save millions OF
dollars every year if they could but
realize that the basis Of all perform
ance of more than ordinary worth is
blood. Any COW will give some milk.
any steer or hog will make some
meat, any sheep will produce some
kind Of lamb or some sort Of wool.
and any horse pull, run Or trot some
but what every farmer needs and
should want is an animal that does
its part well. We have seen hundred
of men laugh at and ridicule the horse
that finished away in the rear in the
race at the county fair, and a whole
lot of these same men were keeping
cattle, hogs, sheep and poultry that
couldn't come within a mile of any
good animal Of their class because
they were not bred right. When we
make fun Of man who goes to the
races with slow horse let us tnlnk
Of the man who is raising scrubs for
meat, dairying without dairy blood, or
breeding horses that are not intended
for anything neutrality-suspicious.

We can not always charge it to old
age when we find our foreheads are
crossed with distressing network OF
tiny lines. It is not always age that
makes those disagreeable rows across
our foreheads and around the eyes,
There are some grandmothers whose
faces have hardly wrinkle, and some
granddaughters whose brows are as
scanned as they might be at sixty. Time
is not responsible for these vexing lit
tie lines. A good many Of them may be
charged up against worry. If one gets
in the way of fretting over everything
that has gone wrong and everything
one thinks likely to go wrong. the rec

People and Their Weight.

81 believe that nearly everybody is
sensitive about his weight" said a
cigar dealer on Walnut street who has
penny weighing machine out in
front Of his place Of business yester-
day. "The thin people think they do
not weigh enough and the fat people
think they weigh too much. I have a
lot Of fun watching people who use
that weighing machine. Usually be-
fore person drops in his penny he
will make sure that no one is near
enough to read the figures on the dial.
If anybody approaches before the hand
has stopped sensitive person will
sometimes get off the scale. Women
are more sensitive about their weight
than men. Few women will weigh
themselves while anybody is looking.
They seem to guard their weight as
closely as they do their ages. Here's
a little advice: If you want to be
popular with thin women exaggerato
when guessing their weight. If You
would have fat women like you guess
below what you think they weigh
