FOR the Chill DREN
Talking Dogs.

Away back in the seventeenth cen
tury boy of Saxony owned mastiff
which had Il peculiar bark. The boy
thought that there was Il resemblance
in the sounds made by it to some Ger
man words. and he determined that
he would teach the animal to speak.
The task was difficult one, but the
boy had great patience and finally
taught the dog to speak thirty words.
Il few of them French. but the major
ity German The words We're simply
uttered by the dog after the boy had
repeated them.
1t is said that in the year 171S dog
was exhibited in Holland which could
pronounce all the letters of the alpha
bet except i. m and n. In the year
1719 there was speaking dog at Ber
lin, and the "Bibliotheque Germa-
nique' for 1920 asserts that there was
then dog which could speak sixty
words and that it showed preference
for short words, never attempting to
speak q word Of more than three syl-
tables.
These cases are. of course, remark
able. and yet it cannot be said that the
dogs employed speech in the real sense
Of the term. for there is no evidence
that thought determined them in the
choice Of words. They simply initiated
the human voice.

The Pepper Vine.

The most common and widely used
of all spices is pepper. 1t is native
of the East Indies. but is now culti
waited in various parts Of the tropical
belt of this hemisphere. The plant is
a climber and has a smooth stem
sometimes twelve feet long. The fruit
is about the size of pea and when
ripe is of bright red color. In culti-
vation the plant is supported by poles.
In some localities small trees are used
instead of poles. for the best pepper is
grown in a certain degree of shade.
