before the right one is secured. Then
again there is no way of estimating
how many will be needed and we do
not care to lay in large stock unless
the law is going to be enforced and
people are going to buy"
WANT TO BE SHOWN.
This last point seems to be the key
to the whole situation. No one is
going to get a muzzIe until absolute
ly compelled to do so. AS stated,
muzzles were found yesterday at all
of the stores visited. One firm stat
ed that it had never been more than
two or three days at time out of
a. stock of them, another claimed not
to have been out this season and yet
none have stocked very heavily in
these goods. From the estimates of
sales given, probably 400 muzzles
have been sold this summer. There
seems to be a disposition on the part
of the merchant as well as on that
of the owner of the dog to wait to
see if the law is to be enforced in
spite of the fair warning that has
been given. One owner will muZZle
his dog If his neighbor does, and so
it seems that a good many dogs are
to pay the penalty of this procrasti-
nation and show me" attitude.
II is to be hoped, however, that
owners of dogs of real value will not
neglect to take proper precaution
and either keep the dog of the
streets or keep him muzzled.

A visit to three of the principal
markets for these goods showed that
there were probably six dozen muz-
zles in stock. At two Of these places
wire cage like concerns were sold
and as stated by one Of the clerks
considerable dificulty is experienced
in fitting them. There is no mean

to buy without any idea Of what size

An indisposition on the part of dog
owners to go to the trouble of deter
mining the size of muzzle required
by their dog and then purchasing
one, is resulting in the death Of many
fine animals these days. AS told in
The Argus last evening some 200
have been put to death by the police
thus far this season and the pros
poets are that there will be as many
more before the dog days are over.
The general apathy about the pur-
chase Of muzzles has had it's effect
upon the dealers in such about the
city and there is a shamefully small
stock Of them on hand.

AS the work of missionaries in the |
task of evangelism, it is good to re-
port that there has been real pro-
gress during the year in the deve.- |
opment Of churches and in the more
aggressive spirit of evangelism in |
ps-dny lands. A successful Armenian
merchant in New York maintained
| an experienced and tried native
evangelist in Central Turkey. The
! Central Turkey Mission is putting
evangelists of its own number into
the field In Japan, the kumi-at
churches are beginning to organize
a systematic and aggressive cam
paign to evangelize the masses out

In a breach Of promise case the bar
rister who held the brief for injured
beauty arranged that his fair client
should be so placed that her charms
should be we'll under the observation
of the jury. He began most pathetic
appeal by directing their attention to
her beauty and calling for justice upon
the head of him who could wound the
heart and betray the confidence of one
SO fair. concluding with peroration
of such pathos as to melt the court
to tears. The counsel for the de-
PENDANT then rose. and after paying
the lady the compliment of admitting
that it was impossible not to assent
to the encomiums lavished upon her
face he added that nevertheless he
felt bound to ask the jury not to for

he sat down. The important fact OF
which the fair PLAINTIFFS counsel was
unaware was presently established.
and the jury, feeling rather sheepish
at their tears. assessed damages al
