People take newspapers nowadays,
read them and then throw them away.
They never think what source of
pleasure and profit-or "reminiscences

The man who owes a debt and per-
sists in spending money for luxuries
is spending money that does not be-
long to him. And yet how often it is
done.
A man who sent a dollar for a "po-

wood with the following directions:
Take the block which is No. / in the
right hand. place the bug on No. and
press them together. Remove the un-
fortunate and proceed as before
Every school boy knows that a kite
would not fly unless 1t had a string

nothing to keep him steady is always

After a man has spent his whole life
as the devil wished, 1t doesn't look
reasonable to us that he can lie to the
Lord on his deathbed and go straight

from entering the pearly gates.

Origin Of Names Of Breeds.
First pub Feb. Is, 90.
Last pub March II, 90.

epaniels were 30 called because the
original breed Of this type came from
Spain. The Blenheim spaniel got his
name from Blenheim palace. where
this dog first gained popularity in the
time OF the great duke Of Marlborough.
In the same way the King Charles
spaniel owes Its name to the merry
monarch. Fox terriers did not gain
their names from likeness to the
fox, but from the fact that formerly
they were used in Aunting foxes.
Many years ago they were sent by
their masters down the fox's burrow
to draw and kill their quarry. II was
in those days a saying that good fox
terrier never came out OF a burrow
without the fox. He either brought
out his prey dead or never came out
alive himself.
