Dog Faithful to Dead Comrade.

Grafton, a fashionable Pittsburg
suburb, is prey to dog poisoners,
but there is one dog that won't be
poisoned because he will not eat.
He is Spotty, little animal, owned
by Henry Marcellus, who, the neigh
bors say, is dying of grief ever the
death of Bill, large animal, owned
formerly by David Rankin, near
neighbor.
Some one poisoned Bill week ago,
and Spotty, who had had romp with
Bill every day, found him dead in the
yard when he made his afternoon
call. Spotty mounted guard over his
dead friend, killed the first rooster
that stuck his head into the yard, and
fought viciously when members of
the Rankin family came to bury Bill.
Spotty followed the carcass, and after
the burial took his position on the
grave and has refused to leave it
since. Nor will he eat.-New York
Tribune.

Do YOU KNOW
HAIRS AND FEATHERS !?
And Some OF the Unusual De-
tails of Interest About IheSe
Common Things.

Should you be questioned as TO
whether you are familiar with hairs
and feathers you would probably be
indignant at the suggestion CT your
ignorance concerning such common
things. "Certainly l know hairs and
feathers. Don't we see them wner
ever there are cats or birds or chick
ems? What is there unusual about
such common things that YOU should
ask? Of course I know hairs and
feathers The ideal"
I thought that I knew hairs and
feathers, too, once upon time, until
one day my pocket lens opened my
eyes to the existence Of a world of
strange and wonderful shapes among
these common things and gave quite
a shock to my comfortable seIi-cOH-
ceit." Indeed, is it not owing to this
very so-calIed "cOmmOnneSs JIa. VS.

III y all peoples, however they
may have differed as to the
years length or the date upon which
the new year should begin, have uni
ted in this, that it should be properly
celebrated. From time immemorial
as we'll artists, sculptors, poets and
especially those versatile fellows, the
almanac makers, have with one ac-
cord personified the outgoing year as
a gray bearded veteran quite ready
to be gathered to his fathers, while
pated cherub, advances gayly to take
his place. Notwithstanding the great
English poet laureate sings:
Toll We the church bell sad and slow,
And tread softly and speak low,
For the old year lies a-dying,
the "tolling" is quickly drowned in
the merry chimes that welcome the
new incumbent. LIE roi 4est mort!
Vive lie roi!
The advent of the new year has al
ways been a time Of rejoicing, not
alone with the Greeks and Romans,
but with the nations still older. Va
ried were the ways in which the festi-
val was kept, but in this they were all
agreed, that a time of new life had
come, that old quarrels must be for
given, old debts cancelled and every
thing possible should be done to
create a feeling of good will toward
men"
AS New Years is celebrated its i'm
portation has reached us throu gh
France, which was in turn indebted
to the Latins. IN France it is still
the most important day Of the year in
the way of friendly meetings and ap-
pointments and social and family re-
unions. The typical Frenchman on
this day always dimes at home with
his parents, if he has any, and no out
side attraction is sufficient to lure him
away from the performance of this
filiaI duty.
Among the Chinese their New
Years is the great day of the year,
when all business is suspended, and
the most lavish hospitality prevails.
On New Years Day the children Of
the Wallachs and the trans-Danubian
Rumanians take olive branches and
go from house to house to cOmpli-
ment the neighbors with their SO0d
wishes, which are not altogether dis
interested, as they expect to receive in
return some little present. On the
second day of the year every stranger
entering a house is required to throw
on the fire small quantities Of salt,
which are placed in cups on the table
for that purpose. He must then go
to the henhouse and place an egg in
the nest for the hen to sit upon. Il
the hen consents to perform her duty
the guest is considered a fortunate
person, and is feted in that house un-
ii evening. This custom is called "the
lucky foot"
Like all other Eastern Christians,
the Greeks adhere to the old or Gre
gorian calendar, and their year be-
gins twelve days later than ours.
January l is dedicated to st. Basil,
who appears to have been a native of
Caesarea, in CappadOcia. In Asia Mi
nor, and also in Epirus, children go
from house to house singing Odes in
honor of the saint, which, however,
are generally extended to cover some
finely turned compliments to the Occu-
pants, wishing them "a good year.
and requesting largesse. st. Basil is
always represented in these songs as
a schCOlbOy, whose touch quickens i'll
animate objects with new life

FALLING OVER A PRECIPICE.

FALLING OVER A PRECIPICE.
To fall over a precipice in the Alps
and then live to tell the tale was the
remarkable experience of Albert
Helm, German scientist. His fall
could not have occupied more than a
few seconds, but his train of thought
was long and interesting. Il clearly
saw" he says, "the possibility of my
fate. l said to myself: The rocky
wall from which l am now being
hurled prevents me seeing what is at
its base. The snow may be melted
there, or there may be none; if there
is any my life may be saved. Other
wise death is inevitable. If am con-
scious on reaching the earth, have
by me bottle OF arOmaticS and my
alpenstock l will still grasp it, for
it may serve me in good stead
thought, too, OF removing my eye
glasses lest their splintering might
cause injury. Other and gentler
thoughts for those | was to leave be-
hind came upon me. For myself
felt Indifferent, caring really little
whether l should be much injured or
not, but from motives of considera-
tion for others l felt compelled, as it
were, to make light of the matter
1 seemed to call aloud, 4 am not
much hurt l 7ecollected that in five
days more I was to have delivered an
inaugural discourse, and thought of
the grief my death would cause to
those near and dear to me. Anon,
lying as it were on the limit OF a far
distant horizon, appeared distinct and
diverse images and episodes in my
past life. The whole mental picture
stood out clear and illumine1 by di-
vine and mysterious light
"All things seemed lovely and of
good report. There were no misgiv-
ings, no anXieties, no sorrow, pain or
terror. There were n sensations Of
contest or strife. All was merged in
feelings of genial good will and kind
ly feelings. Such feelings predom-
mated over all and formed what was
truly unique and lovely picture.
Gradually heaven of glorious blue,
fecked with rimson clouds of gos-
samer lightness, surrounded me. In
them l was waited to and fro, borne
up from below, but painlessly and
pleasantly, while a vast and moving
snowfeld seemed to accompany me.
Anon the perception of objects, sub
iective thoughts, a ledley of various
feelings, seemed to circle in concen-
tric mazes as around common cen
tre. Then came a dull thud, which
1 heard very distinctly, bul did not
feel-and my fall was ended.
"At that instant q darl- veil passed
before me. I called aloud three Or
i0ur times, L am not much hurt,
grasped my glasses, which lay near
me, and touched my limbs to make
sure they were not broken. Then I
saw my companion@ slowly approach

SIIccnIpSS Creatures.

There are several species OF hsh'
reptiles and insects which never sleep
during the whole of their existence
Among fish it is positively known that
pike. salmon and goldfish at no time
sleep; also that there are other men,
bers of the fish family that sleep only
a few minutes during the course OF
a month. There are various species
of flies that never indulge III slumber,
and five species of serpents also that
do not sleep.-Philadelp Record.

and the Highest of the officials three
times, according to the Russian fash
ion.
In the streets the people kiss each
other, whether acquainted or not. The
favored ones who have been kissed
by the Car are permitted to kiss the
hand of the Empress as well. The
ceremony of handkissing was sup
pressed for a time, but was re-estab-
lished a few years ago under the
reign of Alexander II. O. New Years
Day at breakfast, dinner and supper.
the guests, standing about the table,
touch glasses, drink the I-ealth of the
Emperor, and offer good wishes to
each other.
In England and America the hap
piest revels for children are over be"
fore January 1, but in Scotland they
are Just getting under full headway.
This custom doubtless arose from the
fact that the old Calvinists held II
detestation the ''Popish' celebration
of Christmas, and it became sup
planted by "Hogmanay," usually held
on New Years Eve. This euphonious
name is doubtless derived from the
ola greeting, "Au gui menez' C1o
the mistletoe go!'D The festival is
distinctivcly juvenile function, ard
they prepare for it weeks beforehand
by memorizing songs and making
"guisers" costumes.
Housewives lay in stock Of oaten
cakes and bake a store of ''bridles,
which they hand out to the children
when they come to the house door to
claim their "hogmanay, crying:
"Get up, good wife, and shake your
feathers,
And dinna think that we are beggars;
For we are BARNS come out to play
Get up and g;e's our hogmanay.
This custom of the ho3manay is al
luded to in that most delightful book,
Sentimental Tommy" Sometimes
several guisers go around in a mild
sort of theatrical entertainment be-
fore an appreciative audience gath
cred beneath the smoked rafters of
the great farmhouse kitchen. Among
the old customs we of to-day still
cling most fondly to is the one CT
| ringing the church bells at midnight,
| heralding the birth of the new year,
Although the poetic figure of the
old gray-haired sexton pulling his bell
with might and main in the belfry
tower has been supplanted by the fin
| de-siecle individual who, snug and
warm, sits at a keyboard and reels
off the music with as much ease as
though playing "Moneymusk' in the
| parlor, the sentiment fingers and, lis
| tening to the mellow chimes cleaving
the frosty air, one hears the singing
in unison Of:
ring out old shapes of foul disease,
Ring out the narrowing lust of gold;
Ring out the thousand wars of old,
Ring in the thousand years of peace"

Truce of God.

In 1882 the Bishop of Aquitaine de-
clared that he had been made the re-
cipient of message from God order
ing men to cease from fighting. From
this resulted the Truce Of God. "
The first arrangement lasted for seven
years; but it was resolved that such
peace should always prevail during
the great festivals of the Church, and
from every Thursday evening until
Monday morning. The regulation was
speedily extended over Christendom,
confirmed by several Popes and en-
forced by communication,
