came kind. Last fall an agent came
along, selling soap that would do
everything you can think of, from
identifying the female complexion to
chasing the cows out Of the corn. The
agent talked as though he had eight
day works in him. like our old grand
fathers clock, and he didn't make any
impression until he said the soap
would heal all skin diseases of man
or beast. 1t happened at that period
that Mr. Curfew had an imitation bird
dog that he traded good watch for,
and gave a dollar to boot, said dollar
having been extracted from my pri-
vate savings, and never returned.
This dog had$ the mango or some
disagreeable disease that caused him

rubbing against everything he could
find, first and last. One day he up
set my. parlor table and broke all my
best china, which l had placed on the
table few minutes before He also
upset the sewing machine and the
churn, and don't know what else.
$50 when Mr.. Curfew heard that
the agents soap would cure skin dis
eases. he insisted upon buying cake,
and after he had gone he began to
wash the dog with that marvellous
SOAP I don't know what ingredients
said soap contained, but after 1t was
rubbed into the dogs skin that I'M
fortunate animal became frantic aud
acted as though its reason tottered on
its throne Mr.. Curfew tried to hold
the beast, and 1t reached around and
bit his ear almost off, and of course
he released 1t then, and the uproar
he made, as he danced around the
house, holding his ear with one hand,
and summoning the police with the
other was simply scandalous.
Meanwhile the dog ran off, en-
tirely demented. Mrs. Turpentine
vas crossing the road pushing her
)aby buggy, when the animal collided
with said vehicle and spilled her OFF
spring into the mud. am willing
to admit that such an experience was
aggravating, but l don't think 1t was
ladylike in Mrs. Turpentine to come
over to my house with her muddy in
FAINT under her arm, and shake her fist
under my nose and tell me that for
five cents she'd pull all my hair out.
"Old Mr.. Poppinjay was standing
on the corner, leaning on his cane,
waiting for street car, when the
crazy dog ran against his cane and

him going home ten minutes later,
dripping slush and mud like sea-
serpent, but | couldn't sympathize
with him SO very much when he
picked up brick as he was passing
our place and smashed panel in our
front door.
"For two days people were coming
here claiming that we ought TO reim-
burse them for damages done by that
dog. 1t seemed that the unfortunate
animal made a circuit of the town,
and left a trail of desolation behind
him. He upset six pans OF milk for
