Were human nature in it's family re- lations to be judged solely by the incl dents which are reported in the news papers. the -skeptic and the pessimist might prehaps have reason for the un- faith which is in them. There are always sons who have been disinharit- ed, daughters who are estranged from parents. or sisters who are yentilatIng a quarrel in court Yet not infreuuent- ly. says Youths Companion. the news papers also show the other side of tine shield.

DOGS OF WAR.

Two hundred dogs. chiefly sheep dogs. are at present attached to the German forces operating in HerrerO Land under General von Trotha. One of them. Flock. has been sent home to Kiel invalided. He was wounded by bullet in the engagement of OpajbO while scouting in front of the skirmish- ing line. He displayed the greatest fearlessness under fire and worked faultlessly until disabled.
 The JaD2nese are using number of dogs for accommodating purposes: they are attached to long ropes and well trained. The Russians are employing dogs for sentry and messenger work.
 Captain Persidsky of the late Count Keller's staff. writing from Odessa. says: ''In finding the wounded men with which the millet fields are strewn nothing has succeeded like our seven dogs: their intelligence, especially the English bred ones. is extraordinary"
 I have been asked several times to supply dogs to the Russian army. and only quite recently was commissioned to purchase sheep dogs in the High lands for the German ambulance dog training establishment Perhaps. in- stead of breeding and exporting dogs for foreign armies. we may some day find our dogs of service to their own country.-Nineteenth Century.

the family are the very circumstances which ought to bring all the members closer together, and make them more charitable and more forgiving. In some cases, no doubt, the testator him. self is at fault. By common consent humanity has accepted the motto, Nothing but good about the dead;" and if enmity is thus to be cast aside by the living who look into an open grave, why should it be cherished and carried over by him who has received the great summons? Why should he wish to stretch from the unseen world a hand clenched to inflict pain rather than one open in blessing and benetic- ence? The love that keeps family together is worth any amount of jus tice" at court or of bonds at the bank CTS. The way to preserve it, when an inheritance is in prospect, is exactly to reverse the rule usually followed. When your own interests are at stake, keep still; speak and act only when those of the other members of the fam fly are affected.

We are hearing good news from Chi cago. where Judge Dunne, the demo- cratic candidate for mayor is running on a municipal ownership platform, against Mir Harlan. the republican call didate says an exchange. Harlan rep resents the traction crowd. of which j. PicrpOnt Morgan is the head. Judge Dunnc wants the immediate munich paIization of the Chicago street car lines, under an ingenious plan, which will not add cent to the taxpayers burden. Harlan is daily attacking William R. Hearst because the latter is conspicuously supporting Dunne. Har Ian is making the fight flor or against Hearst" Chicago went republican last fall by 100000, so that if the democrats cut this down to any extent it will be in the nature of democratic victory. But. strange to say it looks as if Dunne would be elected. The betting is 3 to in Dunne's favor.

One of the most difficult things to do in the world sometimes is to keep ones temper A calm serenity of temper and a self-control which keeps per son unruffled amid the petty annoy ances and lies of everyday life, says the Chicago Daily News, indicate the possession of perfect mental health. Nowadays people are very fond of say ing so-and-so was just mad" meaning very angry; but it would be Well if temper were more often seriously re- garded as madness. It may be pre- ventable madness, but madness 1t is while it lasts, and there is seldom any one who is made more unhappy by it than the person who gives way to it. In our treatment of the ill-tempercd the cultivation of the art of not hear ing will be very helpful. It is q use full art all through life.

 serves little further along. And he continues.
 "With this extraordinary material development it is natural that, in the United States, business-that is to say, industry, commerce and finance = should have more and more come to overshadow and dwarf all other inter- ests, all other occupations. Every European who visited the country since the beginning of the last cen tury seems to have been struck by this fact. It is more striking now than 1t was thirty-five years ago. But the contrast with Europe is not greater now than it was then. Rather is it less, for ir this respect England and Germany have been following in Americas foot steps,"
 Mir. Bryce also makes this observa- tion with regard to the trend of the population of the country:
 "They are ceasing to be folk of country dwellers. It is not only that the greater cities extend themselves with amazing speed and that many of the mineral areas are becoming so covered with villages as to differ little from cities-there is general disposi- tion to migrate from rural districts to centers of population, where a brisker life and more amusements can be en- joyed. The change is all the more re- markable because agriculture continues to be prosperous"
 Mir. Bryce also notes a decided im- provement fin our educational facilities.
 There has been within these last thirty-flve years," he writes, "a devel- opment of the higher education in the United States perhaps without paral- Tel in the world. Roughly speaking for it is impossible to speak with ex- actness-America has now not less than fifteen or perhaps even twenty seats of learning fit to be ranked beside the universities of Germany, France and England as respects the completeness of the instruction which they provide and the thoroughness at which they aim.
 "The improvement in the range and quality of university teaching is a change scarcely more remarkable than the increased affiux of students, and whereas in England the vast majority of students go to prepare themselves for some profession-law. journalism. medicine. engineering or the ministry of the Established church-there is in America a considerable proportion Gin one institution I heard it reckoned at a third or more) who Intend to choose a. business career. such as manufac- lures or banking or commerce or rail roading.
 Among the minor changes which the traveller notes be must not forget the growth of what may be called aesthetic sentiment. The desire to have beauty around one. to adorn the house within and without the grounds. if not new. has developed apace since 1870"

The effect of cheap electric power in encouraging and conserving small in dustries has already been well demon stratcd. particularly abroad. In sev- cral regions on the Continent it's irtro- duction has preserved the industrial autonomy of large groups of villages threatened with extinction by the very forces more conspicuously active in the United States, says a writer in the Engineering Magazine. Since the ex- istence of small industrial center means increased prosperity in all the region about it, the value of such a policy to the community is all the more evident. In caring for small in dustries and developing local re- sources. Continental Europe is far ahead of the United States. In France, Germahy and Switzerland there has been keen interest in preserving man. ufactures against the inroads of cen traliZation, and good many electric plants. both large and small, have had this aim in view. The task is rendered easier by close governmental control of transportation. In America, on the contrary, the tendency toward indus trial centrali.ation is at present very strong. and almost wholly uncontrolled. Each census shows worse conditions in this respect, without compensating ad- vantages. It is small glory to have rapidly growing cities fed by depletion of the rest of the country, when at the same time economic waste Is increased. The practical problem to he solved is to make the non-urban regions indus trially more useful, and as already pointed out. electric power distribution and communication gives at least one efficient decentralizing agency.

English Historian Finds the United
 States Leads Tn Condition of the
 People-Absence of Pauperism Re-
 mark able, He Says - Universities
 Rank With Europc's Best-Growth
 of Aesthetic Sentiment Noted.
 The Right Hon. James Bryce, the English historian and parliamentarian who a quarter of a century ago visited America and produced as q result of his study of America and her institu- tiOns that remarkable work, "The American Commonwealth" again visit. ed America short time ago, and now in a recent issue of the Outlook he sums up the changes which have taken will appeal to most readers most strongly is what Mir. Bryce has to say on American morals.
 "The general moral standard of the United States" he writes, ''still ap- pears to me, as it did twenty years ago, to be, on the whole, higher than that of western Europe. Even in the wealthiest class, where luxury weak ems the sense of duty and lays men and women most open to temptation, there are apparently fewer scandals than the same class shows elsewhere.
 "Nor is the morality of any country to be measured by the number of di- vorces. Its condition may be really worse if people cynically abstain from obtaining divorces where there are grounds for obtaining them.
 That which most strikes the visitor to America today" he writes, ifs its prodigious material development. In dustrial growth, swift thirty or forty years ago. advances more swiftly now. The rural districts are being studded with villages, the villages are growing into cities. the cities are stretching out long arms of suburbs. which follow the lines of road and railway in every di- rection.
 "The increase of wealth, even more remarkable than the increase of pop ulation. impresses a European more deeply now than ever before because the contrast with Europe is greater. In America every class seems rich in comparison with the corresponding class fin the old world. The huge for tunes. the fortunes of those whose in- come reaches or exceeds s1.OOOOO0 C year, are of course far more numerous than in any other country
 But tue absence of pauperism is still more remarkable. In 1870 I care fully examined the poor law system of two great eastern cities and found that. although there were very few persons needing or receiving support at public expense. the number was ex- pected to grow steadily and quickly as the cities grew. Today I am told that in these cities pauperism. though of course absolutely larger. increases more slowly than population.

Tomorrow morning in the superior court Judge George W. Wheeler will hear motion to have the verdict in the case of the state against Morris Dobkins set aside. Monday evening Dobkins was found guilty of theft of Sl4 worth of copper wire from the cleo tric light station in Naugatuck on Feb ruary l last. The jury was out four hours, and Dobkins was sentenced to not less than two nor more than three years in state prison. When sentence had been pronounced a terrible scene took place. Dobkins's wife screamed and nothing would induce her to cease. She embraced him, and his son em- Draced him also and screamed at the top of his voice. In vain Sheriffs Gil lette and Doherty tried to part them, but they finally succeeded. only tohave to go through the same trouble again.
 Mrs Dobkins, it seemed. was deter mined not to be parted from her hus- band. When the officers were taking him to cell in the basement the wo. man and her son clung to him and made an awful scene before he was removed.
