TRIBUTE TO A BULL DOG.
He Was DisHsured with Scars, But q
Faithful Brute.

few remarks upon the loneliness OF
that horrid bulldog. says a writer In
the New York Times. My dog was a
yellow and white coated animal, with
the wet, pink mouth, with little black
spots upon the pink. He was the
most faithful brute I eve knew;
ugly as could be to his W kind;
was disfigured with scars from fierce
battles. To me he was a gentleman.
He had the misfortune to have one OF
his toes nearly severed from n OF
his hind paws from coming too close
to a moving machine. | covered 1t
with an ointment and sewed the paw
up in an old kid glove. Every other
day | would remove the bandage and
place the foot in a dish of warm bi'
carbonate of soda water.
When cleansed and taken out OF the
water | would rebandage 1t again
He would turn, as wise as he coulc
be, look at it and put his wet moutf
up to my cheek and lick my face anc
hand. Gratitude was in his great eyes
He would guard me all day long
When night came l would invite mn
into the cottage and make a bed o
straw-hlled pillows upon the oor
and after rubbing his chewed-up ear
he would lick my hand and cheeI
and we would part for the night. HoN

She took me softly by the hand and tight

crystal lake
And saw the silent beauty OF u Christmas night.
Our yacht was ashore-in peace we rested on
its deck.
The Ginning floated out into is universal space.
The brilliant ice saluted by thunder sounding
crack.
The stars I'm view, afar the moons fun face
And in the CLASSY lake the heavens reflection
Did show II splendor and n royal grace.
The eve was quiet. To earthly recollection
No sound reca, led our sense. but silence taught:
We were with Gods Spirit In close connection.
Oh mother dear tell me who has brought
That Christmas tree we see upon the hill?

'Our Father gives to US; lie knoweth best
But mother, at the top there is a beautiful

That's your star. my darling! You are blessed !.
And still, my star, I love thee In thy height.

John Reese. I do not subscri be
to the doctrine that the public land
in the cattle country comprises a
series OF barren sand hills as is so
often asserted by cattleman and
Others who desire to monopolize the
lands for private use 1t has been
discovered in recent years that seed
ing these lands to bronze grass has
had beneficial effect. A fine sod is
now appearing all through western
Nebraska. For actual agriculture
there are doubtless many drawbacks,
but for grazing purposes, even for
small cattle men, they are excellent.
Water can be found in abundance in
any OF the valleys at from forty to
100 feet and on the high lands thev
seldom have to go deeper than 200
feet. With the introduction of bronze
grass and the facility of obtaining
water at easy depths, the future of
the sand hill country is settled. In
stead of the cattle business being
ruined by the land Investigations
and consequent restorations of the
public domain to actual settlers, |
take it that the cattle business 10 on
the eve OF its greatest and continued
prosperity.
