Consider the QaM.

The question is often asked, Does the

accompanied by motion in the vertical
plane. hence there can be no question
of rise or fall. Under, certain condi.

Beware of the Doul

In Jersey they have an interesting
device for keeping off tramps and bur.
glars. A watchdog, too ferocious and
too valuable to be allowed to run loose,
is tied to rope about four feet long,
and this rope is tied to ring that runs
loosely over long wire about four feet
from the ground. The wire stretches
from the back porch to a pole at the
end of the yard, and as the ring slips
easily over it the dog has the full run
Of the yard without being able to bite
visitors or innocent passersby. The
wire is practically invisible by night,
and many a prowler has gone on his
way sadder but wiser man after
assuming from the looks Of things in
the front of the house that there wasn't
any dog.-New York Mail.
