WHEN DOGS POINT GAME.
They Do Not All Behave Alike-one
Extraordinary Case.

Extraordinary Case.
The wonderful intelligence Of the
we'll broken bird dog is often strik'
ingly shown at field trials. The field
trial, which is becoming more popu'
lar in this country, gives good
chance to study the psychology OF
the dogs, the instinct to point game
affecting them in various ways.
A litter brother to the consistent
and high class field trial winner
Uncle B. at times did most unusual
thing when he found birds. If the
conditions were such as to make the
finding very difficult and he was
obliged to search far and wide for
them, constantly getting a good dis
tance from his handler, when he
found covey he did not break his
point, retrace his steps and look up
his handler as many dogs do and
then by actions lead back to birds.
But he would draw off a suitable
distance at his own judgment where
he knew he would not flush the birds
and would sit down on his launches
and bark, bark, bark-short, sharp,
loud barks-until his handler came
to him, then he would go right
straight back to the birds, assuming
long-drawn out pointing position of
the cautious style.
Many dogs whine and squeal while
on point, many drool and snap their
jaws during the excitement of point
ing, but very few draw off and bark
good, resounding, locating bark.
On a cold perfect winter day Mr..
Tomlinson was handling the noted
in normal health and very keen. At
ter hunting about two hours his
handler cast him over into a patch
OF low growth sedge and the party
watching him run came up near a
fence to get a better view of his
work. Just as all eyes were turned
upon him they saw him tumble to
the ground fiat and limp, just as
though he had struck an obscure
stump or stone
Mr.. Clemson, his owner and a
party Of friends went cautiously up
to him; there he lay, stretched list
lessly on his side, not muscle NOV
ing, his eyes dull and glazed. Con-
ISOLATION was offered Mr.. Clemson by
the gentlemen witnessing the sad
death of SO capital field performer
as Uncle Sam and the very remark
able manner in which he had died.
Presently his handler came up and
saw him lying there just as the
others had-with glazed, dull eyes
and no perceptibles breathing. AS
Tomlinson said Poor Sam!" he
thought he noticed just the slight
tst movement OF his tail; he spoke
again and was sure OF 1t.
Turning to Mr.. Clemson and his
friends, he said: Gentlemen, there
are birds here. Though | cannot
explain the actions OF the dog, I am
positive of it; he is very close to
them"
At that he kicked the tufts OF sedge
directly in front of the dogs nose,
who all this time had never moved
nor regained his animated express
sion. Suddenly Tomlinson flushed
three close lying birds. To the sur
prise Of all the dog was instantly on
his feet eager again to be cast off,

FIGHTERS IN THE MAJORITY
Veteran Member Of Congregation Was
Tired of Part He Had Been

Representative Harry Maynard of
Virginia tells the story of how re-
ligious old negro in his district put a
stop to the exercise of Christian char
ity in the congregation of which he
was a member. 1t seems that it was
practise In the church to excom-
municate for one year any member
who had been guilty of blood fight
that is, any man who had attacked
another with pistol or razor.
At the end of the year, If the of
fender wished reinstatement, he could
go to the "mourners bench" rise and
declare his repentance, and be forgiven
by the congregation. This went on
for many years. AT last a young
darky who had been in particularly

had buried the church uncovered It
and exposed 1t to view upon the other
side of the dune. The churches OF
st. Piran and Gwithian in Cornwall
passed through similar experiences,
while in 1868 part of Santon (Sand-
town., near Thetford, was over
whelmed by sand which had been
slowly blown in from five miles to the
west. In the course of a century this
dune had travelled four miles and
spread over 1000 acres Of land.
The northwestern coast of France
is specially exposed to the destructive
movement of dunes. On the coast OF
Gascony "the sea for 100 miles is so
barred by sand dunes that in all that
distance only two outlets exist for
the discharge of the drainage OF the
interior AS fast as one ridge is
driven away from a beach another
forms in it's place, SO that a series or
huge sandy billows, as 1t were, is con-
stantly on the move from the sea mar
gin toward the interior"
The entire coast of Flanders and OF
Holland and northern Germany is girt
with these drifting sand hills. In Hol-
land they sometimes rise to height
of 260 feet, but average only from 80
to 60 feet. Dunes of smaller extent
also line the western shore of Ireland
and Scotland, but on the Dutch coast
they are sometimes as much as five
miles wide. On the exposed shores
of the Bay of Biscay, where vegeta-
tion has not had time to protect them,
they are travelling inward at the rate
of 16 feet per annum, while in Den
mark they are in some places moving
as fast as "a feet per annum. The
only method of protection against
them, which, happily, is partially sue
cessful, is to plant pine forests, which
readily grow in the sand and through
the production of turpentine become
the source of considerable revenue.

Some Factories in America, But About
100000 Is Contributed Yearly
to Foreign Makers.

Dolls have amused the world for
ages, and seem to have been well
known in the days of the Pharaohs,
for, in the tombs of ancient Egypt,
figures of painted wood, of terra
Gotta, of ivory and of rags have been
found whose limbs were made mov-
able for the delight of children.
In the ruins of Etruria similar toys
have been discovered, and in China,
as well as in India, movable figures
were made to act from time fmmemo-
rial by hand and on strings, or as
shadows behind a curtain.
The ancient Greeks were experts
in the manufacture of puppets, in
Guiding wax dolls, and several of
their poets allude to offerings of dolls
to Artemis and Aphrodite, made by
maidens before their marriage.
Dolls were evidently first intended
to amuse children, but the adults
soon adopted them as source of en-
tertainment. Puppet shows were all
the rage in Europe in the sixteenth
century, arriving at such perfection
that the performances rivaled in at
traction those of living actors.
In Covington, KY, is the largest
doll factory in the United States, and
there are many other establishments
in the eastern states. But the most
dolls, and we are sorry to have to
say it, the best dolls, are imported,
and the American children contribute
about $2,0OO,0O0 every year to Europe
for dolls.
There are some very fine dolls
made in England; but the very finest
come from France and Germany, and
they are made with a degree of per-
lection most surprising. Even cheap
dolls can close their eyes and say
papa" and mamma" For a little
more money you can buy creeping
doll or walking doll Then there
are dolls that sing-only the music,
of course-and the very latest doll is
provided with a phonograph, and will
recite prose and poetry.

Where Our Dolls Are Made

facture of toys and dolls, and the
small town of Sonneberg, in the
Thuringian forest, alone produces ar
ticles for the amusement of children
to the value of $1500O0 yearly.
German ladies are expert doll
dressers, and there is yearly Christ
mas exhibition of dolls at Berlin. A
great deal is made of the Berlin doll
exhibition, and society turns out in
large numbers to patronize 1t.
There are whole towns in Germany
that do little else. but make dolls for
American children. They are mostly
simple country folk. They get small
pay for making even an excellent
doll, but it must be remembered that
their wants are few.

miles from it. This consists of belt
of sand hills a half-mile or so in
width, which is slowly travelling east
ward across the state. The prevail
ing southwest winds are constantly
blowing the material from that side
and drifting it over onto the north
eastern side, thus gradually shifting
the line of the belt. So irregular are
the drifts, however, that innumerable
hollows are left between them, and SO
slow is the movement that vegetation
covers their slopes and water is pre-
served in them; hence they furnish
favorite centers for ranchmen.
The source of the material of this
travelling embankment moving so ma
jestically across the western plains
of Nebraska and the manner Of its
movement are even more interesting
than the similar phenomena around
Lake Michigan. The sand of which
this belt of dunes is composed is prob
ably derived from the trough of the
Platte river, where during the great
floods of former period it had been
brought down from the Rocky noun
tains and deposited along the banks,
whence it was lifted by the winds and
started upon it's victorious career over
the uplands of the interior. The whole
movement is exceedingly slow, but it
is easily perceptible, especially to
those who have built their houses and
cultivated their gardens upon the
eastern side But when one considers
the vast amount of material that is
being transported by the wind along
this entire belt the movement is ma
jestic in the extreme.
The arid lands of Utah and Arizona
and other portions of the great west
afford innumerable illustrations of the
activity of wind in drifting sand into
regions distant from it's original
source of supply. The desert of Saba
ra, Arabia and the region about the
