Parisian Dog Doggers.

While the police of New York city have been importing dogs for patrol work. the Paris authorities have been training men for tracking down dogs.
 A tax of eight shillings year is i'm posed on every dog and the owners are supposed to declare themselves. Many of the owners evade the tax by giving four shillings year to their concierge. When the fiscal authorities make inquiries the concierge denies the existence of the dogs and the revenue is defrauded.
 The authorities are now paying $30 a month to a number of men who can bark. The men walk along the streets at night, bark outside every house, and when a dog replies take note of the address and send round the tax col. lector.
 Owners of dogs are now attempting to educate them to dodge these dogged dog doggers.-Harper's Weekly.

Ready 10 Pay Fine.

T know where $3,000.000 in cash Hes concealed" said New York law yer. This vast sum lies concealed in the inside vest pocket of the 30,000 sutomobiists of New York state. Each man carries sl00 of 1t in one crisp note, ready to be paid out in a fine, if he should be arrested for speeding. Fines, though, don't appear to stop speeding" he continued. Perhaps the rich automobilist regards them much as the Suabian wood thief did. The thief was arrested. The magis- trate said to him: You are brought up on the charge of stealing wood. This charge has been proved against you But you are old and poor and you shall be let off this time. Only don't do it again 'Nonsense,' retort. ed the thief Let us not have any false sentimentality here. I steal my wood, pay my fine, and there's an end of it.'"

DESERVED TO WIN HIS CASE.
Really Able Argument Put Forward
 by Accused Sailor.

A very good story has recently been told in the fleet of an incident which happened when Admiral Evans was in command of the Indiana. An old-time bluejacket was at the mast before Capt Evans, charged with getting food out of mess chest outside of meal hours. This getting of food for night watches is a common and strong desire on the part of most men aboard ship.
 Capt Evans asked the man what he had to say and the man, sizing up the delicate situation, said:
 Captain, I didn't take no food outer that chest. Why. captain, there weren't no food in that chest! l looked in that chest, and, captain, met a cockroach coming out of that chest with tears in his eyes."-Har' per's Weekly.

college with the idea that he will sur pass as easily there as at home. He usually finds, however, at least 50 others quite as clever at his own spe- cialty as he
 Again. many a freshman who has in him the material for a fine athlete, sees less powerful man put into some team position over his head sim ply because the latter youth has got ten into shape" more quickly. College coaches" are often too busy to spend overmuch time on an aspirant who does not give immediate or at least moderately quick promise of success
 There are also many youngsters whom the forcing system in vogue at colleges will develop into good ath- letes, at the same time failing to glve them the groundwork of strength and endurance on which all real athletic prowess should be built It is such men who break down, acquire "ath- ietic heart and die early. They have been introduced to an entirely new order of life without sufficient prep aration, and that is something to which nature never consents.
 With all this in view l would warn boys not to enter college athletics without previous practice, and here outline the most important details of such practice.
 To the boy who has followed the foregoing lessons and who will for year go through the exercises l have prescribed college athletics will be an open book. He will be practically immune from injury and will be eligi- ble for far higher position in his alma matters athletic work than will the average strong boy But no matter how much general exercise of any sort boy may have taken, cer- tain specific exercises should be learned fin advance if he intends to compete for collegiate honors.
 I will suppose you intend to enter college next fall. You will therefore have at least six months in which to train. Training" and exercising are two widely different things. Here tofore you have been exercising Henceforth you must train.
 Exercise is like the fiexing of the fingers and the mastering or notes' chords and scales on the piano. Training is the application of such ex- ercises by playing a difficult plano se- lection. Do you see the difference?
 The ground work of training IS sound wind in . sound body. II your body is not sound leave college ath- letics alone. They can bring you noth- ing but harm. As for your wind, how ever. you can bring that to state or perfection. If your wind IS not good you can never be a good athlete.
 The deep breathing have described will do more for the wind than Will anything else. But running is the best exercise for wind and body alike, when a man starts in training.

WORK FOR A YOUNG
 ATHLETE M SCHOOL,

crease this by a block each day until you get the distance up to two miles a day.
 Run steadily-not with alternate fits Of rushing and of lounging.--and sprint for the last 200 yards of the distance. This you cannot do at first Indeed, some of you cannot run a mile without stopping. Such boys should begin with half-mile and increase the distance as rapidly as they are able to, to one and then to two miles.
 The reason it is so hard for begin ners to do long-distance running is not so much the strain on the leg muscles as the fact that most lads don't know how to run. Here are a few hints that may make the task easier:
 In walking the heel should always touch ground before the toe. In run nlng the heel must never touch ground at all In running there is never a time when both feet are on the ground at once. The toe alone. from the ball Of the foot forward, should touch the ground, and the next stride should be spring from the toe. Don't run fiat rooted nor force your legs to do all the work The toe should supply the spring. Avoid stiffness of motion in ankle, hip and knee. All of them should bend freely, and the entire body should be free from all rigidity.
 The bent arms should swing in har- mony with the motion of the body, thus aiding instead of impeding the momentum. The left arm should move with the right leg, and vice versa. This keeps the balance true and aids the speed. The body and head should be naturally (not stifiy) up- right. Never lean forward when you run. It cramps the lungs, gives a false and awkward balance and does not bring as many muscles into play.
 Run short distances on the toes; long distances more on the ball of the foot.
 Put down each foot in a perfectly straight line in front of you Never "toe out" You waste space and strength by such fault Make your stride with one foot while the other is directly beneath the body. Breathe with slow, deep, regular respiration, the mouth, of course, being shut. Avoid tricks when running, such as kicking the heels up behind you or making any unnecessary motions. You cannot afford to waste strength and energy that way.
 There is no form of college athletics which does not include running, either in training for the event or in the | event itself.
 If you decide to try for laurels as a runner while in college you will great ly aid your chances by practicine | starts beforehand. In a mile or even half-mile race the start counts fo, comparatively little In a 100-yard dash it counts for everything.
 The "cronckirg start" has grown ir favor of late years. Place the left foot for this start about ten inches back oi the line,s both heel and toe touching ground. Place the right leg far enough bShind, so that when you crouch you. right knee will touch the heel of the left foot. Place the hands (fingers spread) about foot and a half apart
