Story That Contains a Moral 1t Might
Be Well to Keep In
Memory.

A little King Charles dog, pet in
a family where he had been the play
mate of a little boy, slipped through
an open door some time ago and dis
appeared. Servants and the children
of the house searched everywhere,
asked questions at all places where
it was thought possible the dog might
be in hiding, but to no avail, and the
animal was finally given up for lost
and there was deep mourning in the
nursery. One day recently the wom-
an who owned the dog met a neigh
Dor at florists shop, who had on
leash a dog strangely like the lost
pet, and asked where he came from.
why, he ran into our house few
days ago and we don't know where he
belongs The dog knew his old mis-
tress and was quickly surrendered.
You might have had him sooner, had
you advertised" said one woman. And
you could have found the owner soon
er had you advertised" said the other
and the newspaper man who heard
the story added the moral.

H. G. Wells thinks that some day
there will be universal flight from
our northern climate TO live through
the winters in the south. That time
will never come. For the person born
in the northern climate that is best
The monontony Of tropical life is op
pressive; every day the same; no
frosts, no freeze. no icy blasts-this is
sad lot. The particular commenda-
tion Of the tropical life Is that it Is
mostly outdoors; that one gets pure
air and sunshine. But one can get
these things in the north and In a way
that makes them real. The bedroom
window can always be open. The house
may be kept temperate, 65 TO 20. an
moist, says the Ohio State Journal.
Then one can robe himself and strike
out into the keen air with relish.
These are better than a monotony Of
warmth There Is the variety of life

gives it spice and zest That is the
makes man get move on himself
LET one walk along the woodland ways
of the tropics as the sun goes down,
and feel all the soft luxury of tho

as grand as when one puts on his

sunlit morning, when the theTmome,

self got out of the situation. They
howled with mirth over the feeblest
Jokes. and when Max told a story
without any point whatever. they all
had hysteria. Immediately after din
ner Aunt Selma had begun on the
family connection again, and after two
bad breaks on my part. Jim offered
TO show her the house. The Mercer
girls trailed along, unwilling to lose
any OF the possibilities. They said
afterward that It was terrible: She
went into all the closets. and ran her
hand over the tops Of doors and kept
getting grimmer and grimmer. In
the studio they came across a life

her eyes and made the girls go out
