reveals the honest wife, the loving

less. After any successful piece Of
when forbidden to go on a journey, or
creeping behind hedges that they may
accompany their masters upon a for
hidden walk-they show signs of eX-
traordinary contentment and pleas
ure. On the other hand, a really clever
and devoted dog will strain every
mental faculty that he may enter
into the mood of his master, and be
able to show him sympathy and re-

tated by temper or caprice, will for

On the whole, dogs are, of course,
highly courageous animals; but indi-
Kiduals among them have timld lido
syncracies, which alone they seem
unable to control; yet anxiety for the
safety of a master or mistress will
supply them with moral force to keep
down physical fear The writer can
vouch for the fact that dog who all
his life has exhibited an extreme and
ridiculous terror for cattle, refusing to
go through a field in which he could
see a few cows, and insisting on max
ing long detours to avoid going near
them, one day saw from a distance
that his mistress was being chased by
a COW, who finally knocked her down.
He rushed to her aid, and by the
time some laborers could get to the
field the animal was not only driven
off, but severely torn and injured
That dogs prefer to meet death with
their masters rather than to save
their lives alone is a fact too we'll
known to need insisting on.

Why the Boy Lost His Job

When Perkins came out of the priv
ate office he was purple with sup
pressed wrath, so, he, too, must
needs look about for vent He
found it in the person of the chief
clerk
Mr.. Brown. why isn't the mail on
my desk?' he demanded, angrily, and
thereupon, before the whole office
force, he proceeded to berate the
chief clerk, ignoring the latter's pro-
test that this task never had been
and never could be, accomplished
before 10 o'clock
Then Well open the office at 81
said the manager.
Then it became the chiefs turn to
find a scapegoat.
Miss Smith, why wern't those let
tiers sorted earlier?" he demanded,
turning upon the stenographer
why, 1 didn't think" began the
astonished Miss Smith
NO, you never think" interrupted
the chief clerk tartly.
Miss Smith had an mnfailing weap-
On of revenge and she promptly re-
sorted to it. She wept. This so
scared the chief clerk that he hastily
diverted his wrath to the officeboy
John, why didn't you get the let
ters up earlier" he demanded quite
sternly.
THE train on the L was stuck"
answered the boy.
That's no excuse" said the chief
clerk. So the officeboy being the
member of the staff who could be
spared with the least inconvenience,
was dismissed, for, of course, that egg
had to be expiated by someone.
The officeboy had a widowed mother
who was really the ultimate victim
of the chain of circumstances which
began at the senior partners break
fast table. She thought Johnny mad

women are so unreasonable.

London Spectator.

That a moral sense may exist in
animals we think no one who has ever
kept dogs will deny. 1t is not easy
to compare it, however, with the
moral sense as it exists in men. If we
set a dogs conscience beside mans,
the first thing we shall notice is that
the former is upside down. To avoid
violence and deceit, and to distinguish
between his own property and some
one else's are the ideas which form
ter of an average civilized man.
Standing on this foundation We find
in greater or less degree the higher
virtues loyalty, self-sac-
rifice, resignation; all these things in
short, which may be roughly summed
up in the word "selfdevotion." Now
all these fine qualities form the basis
of the moral character of a good and
civilized dog Upon this basis some
of the palmer virtues may be super
imposed; but unless supported by dis
cipline, the upper part of the edifice
is never very steady.
The truth is that dogs nave no alb
stract sense of right and wrong, but
they have, in addition to a high de-
gree of intelligence, which teaches
them to avoid pain by virtuous prac-
tice, a faculty analogous to the relig-
ious faculties in man. They worship

1t all began with the egg the SEN
ior partner had for breakfast. An
egg, the senior partner always main
tanned, should be like Cesar's wife
above suspicion; and the odor that
emanated from this one reduced sus-
picion to certainty. Not only that,
but to add insult to injury, it spurted
over his cuff.
Even then all might have been
well had the senior partner been mar
ried, but, having no wife to vent his
anger upon, he wendell his way down
town, his wrath rising to the danger
point and the safety valves shut
down tight. Then, of course, on that
particular morning the elevated
trains had to be delayed by ice on
the tracks, and the senior partner was
forced to hang by a strap while he
watched mis- officeboy comfortably
reading the morning paper in cor
ner seat.
When he reached his office, the
senior partner looked eagerly about
for trouble. His eyes cleaned with
satisfaction as they lit upon the man.
ayers closed desk and unoccupied
chair. Half-past 9 o'clock, and the
manager had not arrived. Nine thir-
ty-five and that gentleman opened the
office door and entered, flushed and
breathless.
Il should like a word with you in
my private office, Mr.. Perkins," said
the senior partner in icy tones. The
clerks pricked up their ears and list
ened curiously to the loud and angry
tones that presently reached them
over the partition. 1t avaied moth
ing that Perkins lived in darkest
Jersey; that the blizzard had stalled
the trains; that he had not been late
before in ten years. The senior
partner had had an unpleasant egg
for breakfast, therefore, the thirty
five minutes became an offense of
first magnitude.

VERY LITTLE PROGRESS IS MADE

CHICAGO, Feb. ia Washington
special to the Chicago Tribune says:
AS usual, the house of representa-
tives is doing business and the senate
of the United States is loafing shame
fully. There could not be a greater
contrast than that which exists today
in the legislative progress of the two
houses of congress.
The record shows that while the
house of representatives has been
working steadily, day after day, and
has disposed of much important legis-
lation, the senate has done worse than
nothing. 1t has neglected every op-
portunity for work
glance over the pages of the Con-
gressional Record proves conclusively
that the people would have been Just
as well off and would have been saved
an immense amount of money if the
distinguished senators had stayed at
home since the first Monday of De-
cemDer. Ihere nave been dozens of
things they might have done, and yet
the senate has accomplished practical
ly nothing in the way of public inter-
est. 1t has passed number Of uni
portant bills, but from the first day
of the session until today, there has
been practically nothing in the upper
house of congress but unadulterated
wind jamming"

Pressing Subjects.

There nave been a dozen pressing
subjects properly presented for the
consideration of the senate. There is
not one today which has any prospect
of immediate settlement. There have
been executive sessions and open SEES
siOns, and the debate has run the
gamut of every important subject
nominally before the senate. Certain
things remain unfinished business
and as soon as they have acquired
that status are laid aside temper
arily," in favor Of other subjects and
these, in turn, are laid aside without
any particular reason.
And so the senate goes along drift
ing from day to day like a ship with
out a chart, a derelict on the legisla-
tive sea, where it's only function, at
the present time seems to be to act as
menace to such ships as are safely
launched in the dockyard of the house
of representatives.
Do-Nothins Policy.
This do-nothing policy of the senate
Is nothing new, but it is more pro-
nounced than ever before, and states
men On the house side Of the capitol
naturally are chatting over this sena-
torial Indifference to all legislative &C
ton. There have been many hard
fought battles in the house, parties
have split up. the influence of leaders
has been exerted ceaselessly on either
side, absentees have been drummed
back from sick beds, and one great
bill after another has been railroaded
through the house in response to the
wishes of the president and the pres
sure of public opinion.
All this time the senate has done
nothing. 1t mas not seriously consid-
cred any one of the great public
measures. but has considered them all
indifferently and systematically with
out the slightest regard to the ques-
ton properly before the senate.

No Progress Made.

Every important measure which
