What a singular way for a dog to act, says Life, especially as he ap parently, so lar as we can learn from his past, had no actual knowledge of the real value* of human life. He conducted no laboratory experiments upon human beings, nor upon any of his own species, in order to perpetu ate the race of dogs or men. He had given no lectures nor had taken fees for work done In connection with the saving of human life. He occupied no important scientific post of honor. He had engaged in no re search labor, and, in fact, he had no knowledge whatever of the scientific necessity of sacrificing some lives to save others. And yet, in spite of this, he seem ed to have the true scientific spirit, and, although but a dog, he was willing to sacrifice himself for oth ers.

All that is asked in return for these valuable services is that every person treated will state the result obtained to their friends and thus prove to the sick and sUJlicted in every city and locality, that at last treatments have been discovered that are reasonably sure and certain in their effect. These doctors are considered by many former patients among Ameri ca’s leading stomach and nerve spec ialists and are experts in the t reat ment of chronic diseases, and so great and wonderful have been their results that in many cases it is hard indeed to find the dividing line between skill and miracle.

The Papyrus plant, which once flourished in large quantities in Egypt, hut is now almost extinct there, still abcundu in the Jordan Valley, as well as in the neighborhood of Jaffa and Sidon. It growß best in a marshy soil, easily attaining a height of eight to ten feet The stems of the plant, which are hollow, like bamboo, are leafless, and as thick as a man's arm at the lower part, tapering away to a point. This wood, says a writer in the Wide World Magazine, is used to day in the east for a variety of pur poses, both ornamental and useful. At Jaffa it is converted into sandals, boxes, various articles of furniture, and even into boats, in ancient times, particularly when thd Pharaohs reign ed in Egypt, the papyrus was culti vated and converted into paper, and many museums can boast of speci mens of these ancient papyri manu scripts. Solemn Visage Adds Ysars. “If a woman is as old as she looks,” then, for goodness' sake, don’t look old! This doesn’t mean to straight way adopt giddy and youthful attire if you are on the Bhady side of forty, nor does it mean to try and look as simpering and kittenish and coy as your little sixteen-year-old cousin. But did you ever stop to realize that by looking too serious —by looking too much as if you had all the weight of the world on your shoulder and ita woes in your cranium and on your soul you added ten years to your countenance?

Resuscitation after haging, as the Southwark Coroner remarked, is not uncommon. In 1705 'a housebreaker named Smith was hung up at Tyburn. A reprieve came after he had been suspended for a quarter of an hour, and he was taken down, bled, and re vived. One William Duell, duly hang ed in London in 1740, was taken to Surgeons’ Hall to be anatomized, but came to life again, and was transport ed. At Cork a man hanged in Janu ary, 1767, for a street robbery, was im mediately after hurried to a surgery, where an incision was made in tits windpipe, and he recovered and went to the theater the same evenirg. And after Fauntleroy, the banker and for ger, was executed in 1824, there was a widespread rumor that he had es caped death by the insertion in his throat of a silver tube which prevent ed strangulation, and that on being re stored to consciousness he went abroad and lived for many years. — London Chronicle. Dogs and Music. Dogs as a rule like music. But it must be remembered that thei acute ly developed nervous system, which renders them such faithful watchers, also rc“kes keen and high pitched sounds extremely painful to them. Thus the high notes of a trumpet or even of a violin are tenuring to a dog, who will howl ender the inflic tion. On the other hand, noil, me dium tones undoubtedly give many dogs pleasure. Cats, also, like many other animals, are fond of music. But no animal* appear to suffer so much from .Veen, harsh*aounds as dogs, and more in smooth, soft harmonies. A soothing “diapasoa movement" is the kind of music most agreeable to the Intelligent dog. FOR PEDIGREED CAI C ENGLISH Bull Bitches including service to either mv famous stud dogs.
