THE STORY OF A DOG.

am 3. dog, and my fur is. long and
 smooth. I do not like cats, for they
 are afraid of me. My mistress is very kind to me and she pets and keeps me clean. I like her to pet me. One day she tied a pretty red ribbon around my neck. I did not like this very well. After tying on the ribbon she took me to a dog show, where I won the first prize. was very happy to see my friends. as did not ever go out alone. My mistress was always with me. One day when I was going home my mis- tress said: Come, Togo (for that was my name), you have beeen good dog today and you have kept yourself clean, so I will take you for a walk with me in the park" While she was saving this she patted me. We went for the walk, and when I was going home I ran ahead of my mistress and took off the ribbon which made me look so pretty. My mistress said was very naughty dog. I was after ward very sorry for taking the ribbon off My mistress never liked me so we'll after this and she was often cru el to me- I ran away one day and I wandered around the streets: One night when I was very cold and hun gry a woman brought me in and fed me. She also let me sleep in a warm corner in the kitchen near the fire.

BRINGING DOWN PRICES.

There Is no doubt Champ Clark's recipe for bringing down prices will work. It has been tried and has work cd. for under Cleveland in 1892 it brought down prices and brought dowr business at the game time.
 Any policy that checks industry in rreases fdieness. decreases demand and increases supply is sure to make things cheap.
 Tn 1892 it made labor so cheap that ft went a-beTsfng. and workmen who had no means went to the soup houses and those who had money ahead lived upon that until fires were built under the boilers of the factories and the storks which had nestled in the chinrneys were smoked out.
 Champ Clark has a tested recipe and it brings about conditions SO cheap and distressing that if steam yachts were selling for 80 cents apiece the majority of American workmen could not buy a gang plank. What advantage Is 1t to American workmen to have meat 10 cents a pound if they cannot earn the money to buy it? When a policy makes labor the least in demand of all things it has pro- duced a condition which starves labor and adversely affects the being of the people.
 rt win be wiser on the part of con- grouD to listen to the good recommen- dations of President Taft and to make the extra session as short as possible.
 The prospect of a deadlock is fore shadowed since the insurgents will de- cline to train with the democrats in fariff revision to the extent they wish

WHERE PPIDE COUNTS.

We have all been notified that pride goeth before a fall. but this is the pride of vanity. most unwholesome and unproftable quality. There is, pride of nationality and pride of char acter. and pride of home a trio. which are rational and promotive of good spirit
 Just note where pride counted with Abraham Lincoln: I like to see a man proud" said he. of the place in whicl: ne lives I like to see a man who so lives in 1t that the place is proud of him Be honest and hate no one Overturn a mans wrong -doing; but dc not overturn him unless it must be done fin overthrowing the wrong Stand with anybody who stands right. stand with him while he Is right and part with him when he goes wrong"
 Lincoln in this gives a definition O good citizenship that 1t is safe to tic mp to. It is free from all prejudice and pledges only to the right. k boosts right always and stands for honesty. No better citizenship can he devised than a strict adherence to this policy will produce.

ROOSEVELT HITS AT CLOSE
 RANGE

None of the assailants of Theodore Roosevelt have ever claimed that he lacked courage. He doesn't assail evils across the country. but follows them to their lair and does his work.
 He has been at Reno. New. and he did not clofhe his words in wool when he called their attention to their bad practices and notorfety. In the face of thousands he denounced Reno's xrn test disgrace with no mincine of words
 ''There is one colony of which you want 10 rid yourselves" he declared T don't care what you do with those of your own state who seek divorces but keep citizens of other states who want divorces out of Nevada Don't allow yourselves to be deceived by the argument that such a colony brings money to your city. You can't afford No have that kind of money brought hare"
 He dares f7 preach cfean gospel anywhere and when he refers tn taint- cd money there is no question what he means.
 This Is what makes Roosevelt pop tflsr with the people His honesty and his courage commend him in all his public work.

 The farmer could not bear the thought of losing Jerry and was so neglectful that the cats old mistress became very fretful, for week had rolled around before he, referred to it, and almost another week before he got Jerry into bag headed for his old home in the city
 There are some things in life that are hard to get used to, and the close ba E
 is one that no self-respecting cat can abide in peace. Jerry did not give voice to his feelings in wild Meouws. as he did before; but he thrashed around uneasily, and the farmer said: Be easy, Jerry-we may meet again.
 The old Mistress was pleased when
 Jerry ran out of the bag in the cellar where he and Toots first became ac- quainted and Jerry became tolerant of the enemies of the house. But she said right out.
 Jerry is not as pretty as he was" and Jerry said to himself: Madam don't look as kind as she used to- free life changes the ideas and tastes of cats as we'll as men, and he was not satisfied with his return. He was made welcome and was we'll fed; and he looked around and waited at the corner where he first saw Toots appear, thinking he might turn up; and also expecting to meet Robbie, his successor, who had been shut up in the laundry and bagged by the farmer and taken back to the farm Robbie was afraid in the bag, and howled to get out, acting much worse than Jerry had done; and on the same day Goldde missed Jerry, Bobby ar rived, hence the chum- cat blamed Robbie for Jerry's disappearance. and he was not long out of the bag before he was being harrassed by all the cats on the place.
 Jerry's old ( iistress made as much of him as heart could desire; but after looking over the place and waiting and
 watching for weeks, he decided that he would try to find the way back to Goidie and the farm, so one morning as the milkman drove away he fol-
 lowed. He could not follow like dog,
 and he was outfooted and was Mo-
 body's cat again for two or three days; but by waiting on the milk route and
 watching mornings he used to get sight of the farmers wagon; and on the third day after he left his old city home. having been gone a month, he
 arrived back on the farm. He had
 such a lean and worried look that
 Goldie did not hardly know him. When
 they had chummed little and talked
 the matter over Jerry was well re- ceived by all the other cats except
 Robbie, for he had been made so un-
 welcome that he had fled from the farm.
 The farmer and his daughter both regarded Jerry as a prize, and they were glad to see him back and decided not to say word to anyone about Jerry's being there; and his old mis- tress bemoaned his departure and caIl- ed him an ungrateful cat. for she did not realize that cats do not like to he separated from their friends any better than human beings

FOR LITTLE STAMP COLLECTORS
The Stamps of the Rajahs.

Throughout British India the para mount postage stamps are those which bear the head of the late King -Emper- or Edward VII; but there are others. In various states of Indian, which are swayed by rajahs and maharajahs, by jams and begums and gaekwars, there are local issues of postage stamps con- trolled by native postmasters. As a matter of fact there are three distinct classes of postage stamps in use in the eastern empire.
 l. Imperial postage stamps, bear ing the head of King Edward VII. These are good for postage throughout India and also to any portion of the outside world.
 ?. Imperial postage stamps, spe- cially surcharged for use in particular states, such as Glaior, Jhind, Nobha, Patiala, etc. These provinces of India are known as the Convention states, there being a special agreement be- tween them to recognize and accept each others stamps. Thus the imper- ial Indian stamps surcharged in this way are available for postage within the various "Convention'' states, but not outside India.
 8. Local issues for the various na- tive or feudatory states. or, as l have called, the stamps of the rajahs." There are stamps with which the British authorities have nothing what ever to do. They are issued solely on the responsibility of the native rulers and their advisers and are only avail able for postage within the borders of that particular state. In some cases there is a genuine postal sys- tenn, and in that event the stamps are a great convenience for local let ters, but in other instances the stamps are produced merely as means of getting money out of collectors.

An UnsratefuI Owls Fate.

One day as an old hen was wander : ing about in the woods she found an owlet. "Come! Come! Sleepy she said, but the owlet was asleep. The hen scratched until she found large yellow worm. She coaxed him q little piece toward the barnyard. It was noon when she got home with her OWL ct. Some of her neighbors were mak- ing fun of her chick; others were laughing at her. All day she coaxed him around and finally when night came she took her chick into the fowl house with her for she knew nothing more to do. She was just dozing when the owlet stuck his head out. It was dark, just as he liked. Now is my time" So he pulled feather out of her back. Quit that and go to sleep With that she gave him q kick. s'Whoop, hah, ha-ha, don't do that againl' At that he pecked Profes- sor Cock on the toe. Quit that, sir! Iris a shame for me to be awakened at such an hour of the night of with his head" said an old hen, in the corner. Well have a funeral to- morrow Not out of me- said the owlet, T am going to have breakfast of you" Then Professor Cock spurred him and the mother kicked him. He crawled through a crack, just in time to be eaten by Judge Fox, who had been waiting for him.-Written by an Illinois boy.

AN UNFINISHED STORY.
 Lazy Bob.

Mother. will stand this no longer; he has got to go to work, said the angry brother.
 But, Horace; do be calm; you must remember he is not as old as you, and it is true you attend school. but other wise he does as much as you Now, please don't have any fuss, for here he comes," his mother replied.
 Robert did not enter with a quick step. but was a rather slow step for a boy as young as he was. He was rather tall. His shoulders were very rounded, he wore eyeglasses, and, al- together, bore the appearance of a student. His steps were directed to the sofa, upon which he threw himself laziiy. T believe l will read little, he remarked half to himself and half aloud, reaching for a book But he said it loud enough, for his older brother heard him and said with a sheer: That's right; lie down and read the entire evening. and let your poor mother sew to support you, you lazy thing!" Robert did not remove his eyes from his book, and the si- lence on his part made his brother an- grier than before Horace com manded his mother, 3let him alone! all I hear from morning until night is fussing, fussing, fussing.'
 Robert ignored the dinner bell, as he did not care to leave his book; and when he came to the dinner table they had finished dinner. At the table Rob- ert remarked: Mother, I forgot to tell you -
 Wonder you don't forget you are alive" replied Horace, who had ling cred at the table, and who was fond of fussing.
 Well, mother, you know there is a show in the village, and the only hotel there is full. and they asked me to see if you would take them. They said they would pay whatever board you asked" continued Robert.

THE NEARLY ADLE.

We have often wondered whore all the second hand automobiles 10 to, and an exchange informs us they be- come the convenience and Joy of the nearly able. Some of these machines serve their purpose and some are like the celebrated "one horse shay" which went to pieces all at once, and the owners of this kind get into the papers in the most annoying way. Read the following from an exchange from a nearby city:
 An old-fashioned automobile that had lost its usefulness and refused to move, two women who sat in the ma- chine, the chauffeur who worked with out results to make the one hunger continue it's journey, assistants from a downtown garage, and a trio of cops rEade living picture at which resi- dents in the vicinity of Austin and Oxford streets gazed for several hours Sunday afternoon and into the night. The had seen better days machine turned into Oxford street from Chand- Ter street and baked at the foot of the hill near Austin street. The driver took his kit and tried to remedy the trouble, but there was no relief in sight after he had worked on it for an hour while his two women companions re- mained in the car complacently chew ing gum. The driver went for help to a garage. but the workmen with whom he returned could do no better on the job than he had done himself, though they worked for another hour. the passengers showing no signs of un- easiness and still chewing. The men went away and returned with an auto they said could go They hitchAd on to the broken down one and tried to start, but there was no start. The women by this time. after remaining in their seats for about four hours, thought they did not show well in the picture any longer and took a walk. Even then the double header re- fused to work uphill. A turn about was made, and the outfit went down hill all right the last seen of it was turning into Chandler street toward Main street"
 And these has-seen- better days machines are constantly presenting vexatious scenes in all parts of New England just because the nearly able like to be in the swim.

Ev- eryone said how lovely she looks. l know was the envy of all the girls i; but pride will have a fall: and sure enough one day broke out all over in punches
 Oh. how frightened I was! What would my friends think of me now What could I have? Boils, erysipelas, or what? Even a little boy turned pale and sick when he looked at me and, holding his hand on his stomach. he shook his head and said: No green apples for me this year."
