pon Died at His Post.

He was just a dog, a black and tan
cur with tattered ears and no pedl-
gree. lie didn't even have n regular
name, answering to the general appel
l0tion of pup" But he died as n
hero when his masters car was
burned on n road seven miles from the
city. Pup ms left in the car while
his master went away on an errand,
and admoniShed to remain in the ma
chine. Pup remained. Even when
the flames started by a leaking gaSo-
line tank In the battered ear began to
scorch his paws and SINCE his hair, he
stuck to his post.
When the smoke fumes blinded his
eyes and choked his yelps for assist
ance he hung grimly on. He met the
most glorious death that can come TO
a dog-that Of making the supreme
sacrifice in the service OF n beloved
master. A charred and stlfTcned tlg-
IRE surrounding the ruined car was
all that met the masters gaze when
he returned. He was only Il dog, a
black and tan cur with tattered ears
and no pedigree.-Rlchmond Evening

DOGS H0T-WEATHER NEEDS
Let the Pet Have Chance to Exercise
and See That He Gets Plenty
of Water.

A dog must have freedom and ex-
erclse or he cannot be well and happy.
If your dog must be chained a part Of
the time, fasten a wire from the cor
ner of the house or barn TO n tree or
n post, or between two trees. This
wire may be 30 feet long. Suspend
from the wire a chaiq or leather strap
by a ring, which must he large enough
TO run easily on the wire. The 9TH
cr end of the chain must have n fast
cning which can be attached to the
dogs collar; then he can run up and
down the length of the wire and get
some exercise, and also get into the
shade when the sun Is hot. 1t should
he so arranged that the dog can get
up or lie down or run without danger
Of being tangled in the chain or leash.
Never tease or torment a dog. 1t is
likely to make him lll-tempered. If You
treat a dog well, he is one of the best
friends you can have.
Dogs do not p%erspire through their
skins, as We do, hut you may often
see the water dripping from their
tongues. They need to drink often.
A dog should never be muzzled so that
he cannot drink or put out his tongue,
as he naturally would in hot weather.

REAL MONEY WIZARD.
John Law May Well Be Called the
Daddy of All the Get Rick Quick
Schemes Floated.

Two centuries ago there ~"relgned"
in Paris a greater parsonage than the
young king, Louis NV, or his regent,
the duke of OrleanS-a money wizard,
whose operations are recalled by the
Ponzi speculative scheme in Boston.
He was John Law, n Scotsman, who
through his friendship with the duke
Of Orleans, established Il credit bank
on the theory that money is the cause,
not the result OF wealth. He obtained
for the bank a monopoly Of the ma
tons foreign trade, the profits Of
which would repay Tie investors.
In 1716 Law established a private
bank with a capital of 100000 livres,
with power to issue notes, 1t became
an instant success, and his paper cur.
rency became more valuable than the
mlnted currency of the government.
Then he formed his company of the
west, developing Louisiana territory,
with a capital OF 100, 100000 liyres.
New Orleans was built, Trade eX-
panded. Shares in the company rose
in value until first Paris and then the
whole Of Europe went mad, Every
one was growing rich. Law became
director general OF finance for France.
But the height was reached in De-
cember Of 1710, when his enemies, by
side schemes, began to break him. He
suddenly found himself bankrupt. He
escaped from France, became a a
derer and died in poverty.

NY TROUBLED 6.

I took my troubles up the road
All on @. summer morning.
The sun from out its blue abode
The meadows was adjoining.
My troubles were a sorry pack;
They clung like care upon my back.
And there was Doubt. a dubious thing,
And there was foolish Fretting;
And there was Sorrow, with its sting,
And hollow eyed Regretting,
A %grievous brood to bear along
When all the air was filled with song.
Then came / to the wide free crest
With naught but sky above me.
A soothing wind my cheek caressed;
Methought 1t seemed to love me;
And there breathed upward from the
earth
The fragrant messages of mirth.
And seeing far below me roll
The lands so green and spacious,
My troubles lifted from my soul,
And life again grew gracious.
And so ] trod the downward road
Without a trouble for a loadl

NO HAY FAMINE HERE

Just at time when Richmond hay
and grain dealers believed there
would be a aearth of hay on the 10
cal market, they received a surprise,
since there has been steady flow
of hay into the city during the past
two weeks and situation is not going
to reach the serious stage, as was eX-
pected, local dealers state. White
there is grazing at this time of tie
year, this time there was decided
shortage for local consumption, al
though the price was not what it is
today. There seems to have been more
hay grown by the outside county far
mers this year THIN last, and they are
taking advantage of the present price
which is very high, it is admitted,
and are selling their product. Owing
to the great amount of public worl:
going on, there is big demand for
hay, and the supply continues to ar
Rive in sufficient; quantities. There
ere all grades being brought in for
sale, from the coarsest alfalfa to the
finest grade OF timothy.
