BLIND JOHNS DOG is DEAD
After Many Years the Old Man
Must Look for New
Guide

Blind Johns dog is dead and Blind
John is all alone. OF course you know
him, the old blind man with the great
yellow st. Bernard. John Britt is his
real name, but no one calls him that.
Very few know that he has any last
name at all.
For years he has gone about in
sunshine and in rain, day and night.
No danger ever came near him because
he trusted his dog as he would have
trusted a human being. 1t was a COM
mon sight to see the two standing on
corner, the dog looking right and
left for a good chance to start across.
Blind John waited patiently. knowing
that as soon as the coast was clear
the journey would begin.
1t was a great blow toEthe old man
when the faithful dog began to appear
sick. because he had never been sick
before in all the years Blind John had
had him. The old man tried doctoring
the dog at home. but none of the rene
dies did any good. For days the poor
animal tried to get about as usual,
but finally he just couldn't day
came when he couldn't lead Blind John.
Then his master took him to doctor.
The doctor looked the dog over, said
he had tumor and would have to be
operated on.
Perhaps he was too old Blind John
doesn't lay the blame anywhere, only
life is very sad and duh now. For
days the old. man did not even try to
get out and he isn't a bit ashamed to
say that he cried.
He is about again now, trusting to
those he knows--and he knows so many
people--to help him across the most
dangerous places. But it is a risky
thing, besides being lonely, so Blind
John has to look for another dog.
The new one can never take the place
of the old one, but there is nothing
else for old Blind John to do.

MAN WHO HELPS HIS BROTHER
His Boys" Call Him the General Ad- wiser Without Pay"-He Is
 Partial to None.

When a man loves to live he usual ly can go among men who care little whether they live or not and do good. Such a man is Augustus E. Vaughan, immaculate of dress and Of heart ven erable in years and usefulness, whom one may see almost any day either on Boston Common or at the Young Mems Christian Union.
 His speciality is helping his fallen and discouraged brother, whether he be a cigarette smoking boy or a rum sodden and disheartened derelict of man. His creed is cheerfulness and his passion is books.
 Often enc may see him. tall and straight, faultlessly attired in a frock coat with his flowing white beard and his long and carefully trimmed white locks, standing with or sitting beside some ragged and unkempt victim of circumstances who has sought the only place where the police will not tell him to move on, the Common, and then one is sure to be struck by the contrast Many a man he has met there has later become as clean of body and heart as himself, and all through his infectious good nature and brotherly comraderie.
 Among the younger men with whom this old young man of 75 unceasingly labors he is known as the general adviser without pay" and he is as in terested in their ambitions as they can be, and so youthful is he in their presence that he is always one of them
 Mir Vaughan is not engaged in ac- tive business this summer, but he comes to Boston every day, rain or shine, to talk with his boys" as he calls them. Some of these have never before known a real friend. He is highly educated, and counts among his friends many college presidents and professors.
 He was born in Middleboro, nearly seventy-five years ago, and traces his lineage back to Peregrine White of Mayfower fame.
 ''I love to live" said he to me, "and 1 want to help the boys to enjoy liv- ing, too"
