DOG NOT THE ONE TO BLAME
Pet Could Not Help 1t If Owner Chose
to Initiate His Peculiar Style
of "Decoration."

This is a familiar fact, but the man
does not recall that he ever encounter
ed a case, before yesterday, in which
a human being was deliberately trying
to initiate the dog. But he struck the
case at last. Coming down Fifth ave-
nue. yesterday afternoon was woman
dressed in a clinging black satin gown,
around the bottom of which was ring
of black brown fur, which seemed to
be bearskin. The skirt was close and
supple, and it outlined the ladys limbs
as she walked. Around her neck was
another rim of black-broWn fur OF the
same kind. The skirt was SO close
that she trotted rather than walked.
And trotting at her side was black
French poodle whose legs had been
shorn. except for furry frings OF
coarse black hair just above the feet.
His body had also been shorn, except
for the space around his shoulders and
neck. His gait was an effeminate trot.
He was in the main canine dupll-
cate of the lady who was leading him,
but as the fringes were artificial, and
beyond the dogs own power to pro
duce, it was evident that the similarity
between the two was reached by the
woman copying the dogs style, and
not by the dog conforming to the
woman's.-New York Mail.

POOR WITNESS FOR DEFENSE
Was Himself Under Suspended Sen.
tence for Msdemeanor of Which
Friend Was Accused.

An attorney representing woman,
charged in juvenile court with neglect
ing her three children, subpoenaed
several character witnesses to show
that his clients reputation for the
care of her children was good.
A Russian, who has often been in
court for neglecting his large family,
was called as one of the witnesses. In
answer to questions he told the court
that he knew the defendant to be a
woman of good character who cared
for her children.
please state to the court" said
Earl Cox, deputy prosecutor, in cross
examination, "just how many times
you have been arrested and tried in
the last year for neglecting your nine
children"
Il don't know" was the reply.
isn't it true that you are under
a suspended sentence to the work
house on that charge now"
Eyes, sir"
you are waiting now to be tried
for neglectlng your own nine children
and ignoring an order of this court?
Your case is next, is it not?'

GoIuotha,

The one spot which more than any
other has controlled the history OF
Europe lies, strangely enough, not IN
Europe itself, but in Asia. For the
possession of the site where Christ
suffered, was buried and rose again"
more blood has been shed than for
any other. An immense number OF
lives were laid down during the Cru
sades; and for 600 years before the
Crusades, and even to the present
time, a constant stream of pilgrims
has poured into Jerusalem to worship
at the spot made sacred by the cruel
fixion of Christ.
From the fourth century after
Christ until fifty years ago this site
was generally conceded to be within
the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
Now two sites dispute the claim OF
being the actual Golgotha. The latter
claimant is known as "Gordon's Cal
vary" though to an American, DR..
Harlan P. Beach of Yale university, is
due the actual discovery of it. Gen.
Gordon, the hero of Khartoum, having
first secured for it general recogni-
tion.-Christian Herald.

TESTS. OF SENSE OF SMELL
Experiments Have Proved That 1t IsI
Much More Acute in the Male
Than in the Female.

Some interesting experiments have
Deen made in France on the relative
acuteness OF the sense of smell in in
dividuals. A series of solutions of oil
Of cloves, artificial musk, extract Of
garlic, bromine and oil of almonds,
were prepared by successive dilutions
until the limit Of perception was
reached, and then the solutions were
placed Unfortunately, and submit
ted to several persons OF both sexes to
classify them properly by the sense
Of smell.
The results showed, that, on the av-
erage, the sense of smell was much
more delicate in the males than in the
females; but the degrees of keenness
ranged widely as between individuals
Thus, three male observers we're able
to detect one part of oil of bitter al
monds in two million parts of water;
though it's presence was not revealed
by chemical test; but others of both
sexes could not detect the presence of
this same product in solutions of al
most overpowering strength.
The following figures give the aver
age limit of delicacy of perceptions:
Oil of cloves males, in 88,12S; fe-
males, 1 in 5O,667); artificial musk
(males, in 1880; females, in
81, $500: extract of garlic (males, 1
in 57,927; females, 1 in $4,000; bro
mine males, 1 in 339,254; females,
1 in 1924; oil of bitter almonds
(males, in 10000; females. in

HAVING A PURPOSE IN LIFE
Mental Positively, Declares Writer, Is
the Key That opens the Door
of Success.

Find what you really want of life
discover your highest ideal, your most
advanced aspiration. Then stimulate
it with the fire Of desire, and the
steam of will Furnish it with men
tai pictures Make mental paths for
it. Warm it with faith-hope, and con-
fdent expectation. Then move straight
ahead, bewaring of sidetracking or
wandering into bypaths. Choose the
positive thing every time, discarding
the negative on every hand. See
what you want, and where you are
going-and then move straight to
the mark, climbing over, or tunneling
under, or moving around, the obsta-
cles in your path-keeping your eye
ever on the goal until you and the
goal blend into each other. Be salts
fed with nothing but all of that you
seek for-disdain compromise except
as a step from which to attain the
balance of the whole. Take the half
loaf merely to sustain you until you
can get the other half. Demand, de-
mand, and reach out for that which
is yours ideally, SO that it may be-
come yours in reality Grasp it firm
ly when you get the chance-and then
never let go! Sing the song of the
positive-the glad major of progress
and achievement, leaving the weak
lings the minor wall of the negative.
Say to yourself: / can be positive; l
will be positive-yea, by the 'T' with
in me, l am positive, right now and
here" William Walker Atkinson, in
Nautilus.

Jimmy on Guard.

The county farm in an Illinois town
has an old character named Jimmy.
Somebody gave Jimmy a policeman's
uniform some years ago, and ever
since he has deemed it his lifework to
guard things. He goes around guard
ing motor cycles and baby carriages
and threshing engines when the own
ers are shopping or at luncheon.
One day when the Chautauqua was
in session Jimmy was discovered
guarding a hole In the fence. Some
boys wanted to sneak through the
hole. but Jimmy stopped them and
said:
That's what I'm here for-to keep
people out"
Then he added, in low tone:
But if you'll go around the corner
of the fence there's another hole

Birds Sino Rautime.

That many singing birds in captiv.
ity can be taught to pipe bars OF
popular songs is well known. But
Mr.. Thomas J. Dawson of Lower
Sloane street, London, states that
some of his bulltinches have been so
trained that they can sing with &C
curacy and uncommon sweetness the
Toreador song from Carmen" "The
Soldiers Chorus" from Faust" and
the hymn, Now the Day Is Over.
