"Goina to the Dogs."

The phrase going to the dogs" has puzzled the explainers of metaphorical expressions rather needlessly. It has even been suggested that 1t is pro- fame perversion of going to the gods" and an allusion has been detected to "canis." the dog throw, the worst throw with the dice among the ancient Romans. Shakespeare's 'sThrow physic to the dogs" and the Scriptural "Give not that which is holy unto the dogs' have been quoted in connection with the expression. But it seems a fairly obvious reference to the fate of the wornout horse, condemned to be slaughtered. The old Greek curse, GO to the crows!' may be compared, re- ferring as it did to the Greeks horror of having his body left unburied as food for carrion birds.-London Spec. ia tor

The Circus and the Arab Steed.

Circuses are perhaps more to blame for the misrepresentation of the Arab horse than any other source. A friend of mine owns a circus, and 1 saw his posters few years ago claiming to eX hibit eighteen or twenty of the only Arabian horses brought to America. He said they were captured with great difficulty and brought to New York by a special permit of the sultan; that they were of the family known in his tory as the eagle feather horses, so much p1izei in the queen of Sheba's days; that they were snow white, with big markings in their spots of the tip of eagle feathers. We don't have to believe everything we read on the cir GUS posters. In this case am mighty certain these spotted Arabians" were bought at Albany, Ore. The most pc culiar part of this spotted horse busi- nessds this, and it is not very strange reason when you know 1t, that spotted anything is created by mixture of different races or different breeds, and that likely accounts for the fact that the Arabian desert in all It's history has never produced a spotted, or pie bald, horse, possible from the fact that there is never any mixture of blood Homer Davenport in Woman's Home Companion.

Popular Approval of Theft.

The idea of private property has never been fully accepted by the mass es of the people and never had their cordial approval as an institution. The most popular songs and ballads of our nation in all ages, it may be noted, have been those which described sym pathetically attacks on private proper ty from the Robin Hood cycle to the broad sheets in which Turpin and Sheppard were made heroes; Even nowadays the literature that really touches the people, the literature that the educated classes seldom so much as see exposed for sale, the literature that is sold in the small general shop in the back street and costs fewer pennies than the novel we know costs shillings, still very largely deals with the romantic exploits of the robber He is never a villain; he is noble and generous to a fault, but he is con vinced of the impropriety of persons having too much money. - London News
