Mourning for Pet DOGS.

Dog funerals are no longer an un-
common thing in New York. Every
day the local Office of the dog ceme-
terry in Twenty-ffth street has a few
visitors who shed copious tears as
they make arrangements for their
dogs interment. And some of the
numerous mourners are willing to pay
large sums to give their favorite pet
comfortable resting place, even to
the extent Of buying tombstones for
them. A ramble through this dog GEM
etery, which is at Hartsdale, will dis
close many remarkable instances of
the devotion of owners to the memo
ries OF the animals they loved. Most
OF the graves have monuments erected
over them with inscriptions telling of
the good qualities OF the pets which
have gone to the happy hunting
grounds" Some of these monuments
are very pretentious affairs and cost
as much as $1,000. The cemetery is
well kept and flowers bloom on prac
tically all of the plots.

gust 10, has located the identical stump
from which Daniel expatiated % years
ago. '-Brattleboro Reformer.
Webster did not speak from a

What empty cider barrels there are
today in Windham county, or elsewhere
in Vermont, it is safe to say will be
filled this fall, and thousands of others
besides. Vermonters are provident for
the future and hard cider will be on
protected list under the Perry state
wide prohibition law, effective May
next, if the people pass the law at the
next March elections, as now seems
wellnigh certain.
