DOG CARRIES A Pipe.
Philadelphia Nature Faker Has an
Original canine.

Philadelphia The Washington man
who is followed about the street by a
tame goose has nothing on the Phila-
delphian whose dog constantly carries
pipe I'M his mouth. The little white
dog attracted more attention than a
pretty girl as he trotted along behind
his master. His pipe wasn't smoking
as the mans was, but he carried 1t
with the stem in his mouth, and stick
ing straight out in the manner Of
smokers
oh, he'd carry It all day" said the
man III he had 10 drop il, he'd pick
il up again, and III bet none of YOU
could get it away from him Yes, he
has other tricks He'll bring me MY
slippers or a newspaper or book, any
thing ask him for that he can carry
or drag. It looks funny to see him
carry the pipe. OF course. but no fun
nier than to see a man with a pipe IN
his mouth if YOU weren't used 10 it.
Just think how queer a man would
look walking along Chestnut street
with a biscuit in his mouth Bu no
dueerer chan pipe or cigar when you
come TO think OF It. NJ. You bet
wouldn't sell him Here, Box. lay il
down for a minute. That's right. Now
tell the gentlemen whether you want
to be sold The dog gave a few
angry barks. then he picked mp the
pipe by the stem again aud trotted
away With his master

JUSTICE COURT

Michael Teel and Charles Harding,
two milkmen, got into little trouble
that finally eliminated in Justice
Barrick's court. 1t appears that the
price of milk is now seven cents and
Teel accused Harding of trying to
take some of his trade by selling the
milk to them for six cents. Blows
followed from the fists of Harding and
Teel filed an affidavit charging assault.
Acting Constable Richards served the
warrant and when Harding appeared
before the justice he entered a plea of
guilty and paid a fine of 81 and costs.
