.TaleS Worth Telling
ONE KIND OF LOVE.


Health Commissioner Darlington of
New York says it is a crime to keep
a dog in a city.
Aside from the cruelty to the neigh
bors through the dogs bowls" said
the commissioner, there is the cruel
ty to the dog itself to be considered,
dogs having been made for an open
air, active, country life.
These city dog owners profess to
love their pets. 1t seems to me that
their love is about as selfish and for
getful as that of the young Brook
Ign plumber.
"A young Brooklyn plumber went to
Shawnee last month to spend his va
cation with his sweetheart
"One lovely morning, as the two
were strolling in a green and perfum
ed meadow, a bull appeared.
"The bull studied the intruders. His
head lowered, he paved the turf.
Then. all of a sudden, he rushed up
on them at laundering gallop.
"Oh' cried the young woman on
he's coming straight for us! What
shall we do?'
Here, shouted the plumber, don't
stand there doing nothing. Come and
help me climb this tree.

American temperament.
We placed him, u few hours preced-
ing death. upon Il scale platform, which
iiad constructed and which was accu-
rately balanced. Four hours later, with
five doctors in attendance. he died.
Tho instant life ceased the opposite
scale pan fell with n suddenness that
was astonishing-as II something had
been suddenly lifted from the body. I'M
medlatcly all the usual deductions were
| made for physical loss of weight, and 1t
was discovered that there was still a
fun ounce of weight unaccounted for.
My fellow physicians were mystticd
and only half convinced. l myself had
| grave doubts that our calculations were
! correct
.'As Il result OF this doubt, l submitted
another subject afflicted with the same
disease and nearing DEATH to the same
experiment. The result was the same.
| The instant the heart ceased to beat
there was the sudden and almost I'M
| canny diminishment in weight"
! AS eAperimenters, each physician ir
| attendance made figures of his OWL
| concerning the loss, and at a consulta-
ton these figures were shown.
| The question then arose as to what
| the loss meant. 1t was a loss of sub
| stance W1lcn could be OBTAINED In knoWr
| figures, which was also such a singular
! appreciable loss as to place 1t beyond al,
doubt that it might be due to clerical
/ error in calculations.

corresponded, each being of about an

"When life ceased for full minute
there appeared to be no change il

happened that had occurred in the Other
cases There was a sudden dimnishmen
in weight, which was found to be tbs

Il believe that in This case, that Of
