Police Dogs "Wolfsh"

The police dogs are not a distinct
breed. but are shepherd dogs police
trained. The German police dog
should stand % to &c inches at the
shoulder and show in every linea the
qualities which he is supposed to pos
sess-intelligence, alertness, loyalty
gentleness, courage, obedience, willing
ness and devotion. While the stand
ard allows great range of color, those
most often seen in this country are
of the so-called wolf colors dark
tipping of hair over a tawny or buff
ground. The muzzle (unlike that Of
a wolf) is usually blackish. Both the
German and Belgian dogs may be di-
vided into three general types name
iy rough-haired, wire-haired and
smooth-haired. By their erect ears
and general expression they betray
their near relationship to the wolf.

Galleries of Paris
Are Rapidly Passing

Slowly the calvaries of Paris are
vanishing. The old walls on which
penitence and alteration erected them
have crumbled, have been swept away,
and the new walls know no caivaries
Here and there, however, writes ST.
G. H." in the continental edition OF
the London Mail, the great and sor-
rowful symbol of the Christian faith
may still be seen.
In remote corners, just out Of the
swift current of the city's life 1t stands
UNDECIDED by the busy crowds. Only
the birds sometimes f1utter round 1t,
and in the manner of some medieval
legend, we might believe the feathered
things cared for something that hui
mainly had almost forgotten. Of such
calvaries one may be found at the cor
ner of the Rue d'Aubervilliers and the
Rue de lEvangile.
1t has its place not In one of the
loveliest parts OF the great city, and
we might be disposed to question the
work itself from the standpoint Of
mere art. But there 1t stands, and
a creeper droops half caressingly
around the head Of 1t. 1t breaks sud
denly the level contour Of an ugly
wall. And sometimes 1t may seen
that nothing was ever broken in
manner more wonderful than this poor
wall is broken by the dolorous cal
vary.

Cookery and Slang
in Odd Relationship

WHY the business of the cook should
be used as a vehicle Of scorn and re-
venge is mystery of our mysterious
language.
We boast that we "have settled his
hash" when we have "squashed" a
man and when counsel very severely
cross examines q Witness or a mis-
tress gives a servant what is common
" called "a piece Of her mind" we
say that both got ga jolly good roast
ing" If anyone has been. thoroughly
bamboozled or made a fool of we say
he has been "done brown"
Why do we say that certain circun-
stances or happenings have put man
into a pretty stew" or that certain
young man has "got himself into boil
ing water" which almost certainly re-
fers to the dropping of some living
animal, like the lobster, into the pot?
And why do we refer to some one who
has shown lack of intelligence as
only half baked?"
The phrase Tive cooked his goose"
has an ancient origin. When Eric,
king of Sweden, reached certain
town with very few soldiers, the
enemy hung out goose for him to
shoot Finding, however, that 1t was
no matter for Jest, the townsfolk sent
heralds to learn what he wanted. Els
reply was: "To cook your goose for
you. London Tit-Bits.

Musical Instruments

Certain musical instruments are
used almost entirely by one sex. 9th
ers by both. The harp is largely a
woman's instrument but when men
do take it up they show marked abil-
ity to master it. The piano is very
evenly divided between the sexes.
Brass instruments are played mainly
by men, ukuleles by women. The
banjo is mans instrument, while
mandolins are well divided between
the sexes. The saAVphone, the most
popular of all ms Yuments at the
present time, is played by both men
and women.-John Howe in the Amer
lean Magazine.
