Two Collars on a Doc.

Having bought a dog that he admir-
ed, man undertook to buy dog col
lar. The dog had a neck nearly as big
as his head, and the dealer advised the
man to buy two collars. -. --a--a
"What for?' said the man. "He's
only got one neck, so 1 guess he can
get along with only one collar, can't
he?
maybe so," said the man, so the
man went away leading the dog by his
new collar and chain. In less than a
week he, brought the dog back. .
I'm afraid 1 can't keep him. he
said. "He is too obstreperous.4 can't
keep him tied up. His neck is the big
gest part of him, and he is as strong
as an OK, therefore it is a cinch for
him to slip his collar off," g..
THAT was why wanted you to take
two collars said the dealer. PUT
both on and fasten the chain to the
back collar, and he can tug away al
night without getting loose. He may
commit suicide, but he won't get
loose. New York Sun.

ADMITTED HIS ERROR.

1t was during the course of de-
bate over the Klemer episode that
Bob" Dunn called Clinton Robinson
the young democratic representa-
tive from St. Charles, Winona
county, "whiffet,,.
Afterward, when accused by Rob-
tnson of having used unparliament-
airy language, Dunn arose and
humbly-so humbly in fact as to be
sarcastic-offered complete
apology which calls to mind the
neatness with which a member of
the British Parliament got the bet
ter of his adversary
An irate member of the House of
Parliament had described another as
mot having even the manners of a
pig"
At the cry of withdraw" he
promptly did so, by rising to his feet
and saying:
Il withdraw and apologize and
beg to say that the honorable men,
Der HAS the manners of pig"
