DOG Policemen.

In the Century magazine William G.
Fitz-Gerald tells the interesting story OF
how the use of carefully trained dogs
has greatly reduced night crime and cut
down the cost of police service in Euro
pean cities:
That policeman on night duty in a
great city would be more respected If
accompanied by a powerful and saga
cious dog, is a reasonable supposition; yet
It remained for little Belgium to carry
out this innovation I'm Antwerp, Client,
Mons, Bruges and Ostend-an innovation
which has now spread to other parts of
Europe.
AS time went on and the number Of dogs
was increased, 1t became apparent that
night crimes, even in the worst quarters
of Client, almost disappeared Cunning
ruffians had often contriVed to outWiI the
soldiery patrol, but these big. swift,
silent-footed and sagacious sheep-dogs in
spired terror in the most desperate evil
doors.
The night service OF the city is now
made by about 1870 guards, assisted by
so or 60 perfectly trained dog police. The
city is divided into 120 sections so ar
ranged that man and dog can always
count on their neighbors' support If oc-
caslon should arise. Careful check is
kept upon the men, that they visit every
yard of their beat; but even If the men
are inclined to shirk their work, the
dogs will keep them up to it. If the night
guards are used by day, they get extra
pay. and a corresponding number OF
hours is taken from their next night
watch.
Relating to the achievements of his
dogs, NJ. Van Wesemeal told of an arrest
by one of them named Beer. One night
Beer came upon five drunken fellows
wrecking a saloon on the outskirts of the
city The men were making a great up
roar, and resolute resistance to the law
and the fine animal sprang forward with
out a sound When the patrol reached
the spot four of the men had fed, and
Beer was clutching the fifth by the leg.
The moment the officer appeared Beer
gave up his prisoner. and was off like
the wind on the trail of the fugitives,

A Flnhter Who Is Afraid.

General Frederick d. Grant says In
the New York Defender OF May II, 1906:
Tell the young men through your paper
that General Grant does not drink a drop
of liquor-has not for IS years,-because
he is afraid to drink 1t. tried to drink
with extreme moderation, because knew
that alcohol is the worst poison a man
could take into his system; but / found
out 1t was an absolute impossibility to
drink moderately Because moderate
drinking is a practical impossibility, /
became an absolute tetotaler-a crank, If
you please. l will not allow 1t even in
my house Drink is the greatest curse,
because practically all crime and all dis
aster are the result of 1t. Nearly every
great calamity in the country, barring
accidents of nature, are due to drink.
Ninety-five per cent? will make II no
less-95 per cent. of assertions and acts
of lawlessness in the army is due to drink.
If could, by offering my body sacri-
fee, free this country from the fell cam
Ger, the demon drink, I'd thank the AL
mighty for the privilege of doing 1t. II
I had the greatest appointive powers In
the country, no man would get even the
smallest appointment from me unless ne
showed proof Of his absolute tetotalism.
AS 1t is, my own appointees, the members
Of my staff not one of them touches a
drop. They know better"

The Probate Judeeshlp.

AS soon as the election of Judge Water
man to the superior bench of the state
became known last Friday afternoon the
frerfas of Anthony r. Schwenk, for the
last ten years the resister of probate for
this district moved actively for his APP
pontment as judge of probate to fill the
vacancy caused by Judge Waterman's
promotion. Several men of prominence
addressed letters to Gov. Proctor in Mr..
Schwenks behalf and on Saturday pc
titions for his appointment were put In
circulation and received many signatures.
Similar petitions We're circulated In every
town in the county except Somerset, and
the endorsement received by Mr.. Schwenk
was almost unanimous These petitions
are now in the hands of Gov. Proctor
Representative r. w. Gibson of Mont
pelier was announced as a candidate at
Montpelier after Judge Watermans cleo
ton, but decided to withdraw when the
home sentiment in Mr.. Schwenk's favor
became evident Judge Waterman hav-
ing forwarded his resignation as Judge of
probate to take effect Dec. l, immediate
action by the governor is to be antici-
pated.

A Home Transformed.

I know a family whose members COM
pletely reversed their condition by re-
versing their mental attitude. They had
been living in a discouraging atmos-
phere for so long that they were con-
WINGED that success was for others, but
not for them. They believed so thor
oughly that they were fated to be poor
that their home and entire environment
were pictures of dilapdation and fail
ure. Everything was in a run down
condition. There was almost no paint
on the house, no carpet on the floors.
and scarcely a picture on the walls
nothing to make the home comfortable
and cheerful. All the members of the
family looked like failures The home
was gloomy, cold and cherries Every
thing about it was depressing.
One day the mother read something
that suggested that poverty was largely
n mental disease, and she began at once
to reverse her thinking habit, and grad
ualy to replace all discouraging, de-
spondency and failure thoughts with
their opposites. She assumed a sunny
cheerful attitude. and looked and acted
as If life were worth living
Soon the husband and children caught
the contagion of her cheerfulness, and
In short time the whole family was
facing the light, OPTIMISM took the
place of pessimism. The husband com
pletely changed his habits. Instead OF
going to his work unshaven- and un.
kempt, with slovenly dress and slip
shod manner he became neat and tidy
He braced up, brushed up, cleaned up
and looked up. The children followed
his example. The house was repaired
renovated within and without. and thi
family forever turned their backs on tn,
dark picture OF poverty and failure.
| After two or three years of the crea
tive inspiring atmosphere of hope anC
courage the entire family and the nom'
were Iransformed-CSuc

sherman,s March to the Sea.

He received Susy very pleasantly, and
then fell to talking about certain mat
ters which he hoped to be able to dictate
next day; and he said in substance that,
among other things he wanted TO settle
once for all a question that had been
banded about from mouth to mouth and
from newspaper to newspaper, That
question was, with whom originated the
idea of the march to the sea? Was It
Grants, or was it Sherman's idea?"
Whether / or some one else (being anx-
ious to get the important act settled)
asked him with whom the idea originated
I don't remember But ] remember his
answer. I shall always remember his
answer. Gen. Grant said Neither of us
originated the idea of Sherman's march
TO the sea- The enemy did it."-[Mark
Twain's autobiography in the North
American Review.

Development of the Automobile Industry.


There were $50 900 600 worth OF motor
oars manufactured and sold this season
in the United States, according to David
Beecrooft, who writes on Motoring OPP
portunities' in the Technical World mag
azine. To put our this tremendous cara
van Of automobiles there are 1856 factories
entirely devoted 10 the manufacture of
motor cars and $50 more which make au-
tomobile parts and accessories. Al the
factories a score Of firms employ 1900
men all the year round, and In every case
these are young men generally under
thirty; and 1t is surprising In visiting a
factory employing 200 men, to find the
head engineer n man only three or four
years out OF college, who has not yet
completed his quarter century and who
frequently has not entered the benedict
stage. Here is an infant industry which
has become a prodigy in proportions and
which offers untold opportunities to
young men. Not only does the manufac-
turing end of the industry deserve consi-
deration but the selling part is equally
important. Every city In the United
States OF over 10000 population contains
agencies and branches of many or all OF
the automobile manufacturing companies.
Each salesroom or branch has iCs force
OF statesmen, demonstrators, repairmen
ana clerical STAFF, aggregating in all from
a dozen to score of employees.
The problem of the motor car has yet Ia
be worked out. Properly combining
maximum strength with minimum
weight is the problem coupled with
that of selecting grades of metal equal tc
the vibration and strain. Entrants intc
motoring must first of all study what has
been done-the achievements OF a decade
are invaluahle-and after Ihac continue
the work. 1t is a great, expanding field
