One of Seattle's leading physicians
who brags that he fe “a descendant of
one of tlie first families of Virginia sab!”
tells a story of a dog’s sagacity that is
rather astonishing to say the least.
“When I was a boy” said the doctor
“my father used to keep a large number
of hogs. Sometimes he would have as
many as a hundred on the farm. We
were constantly annoyed by hogs be-
longing to our neighbors getting in with
ours. The only way we could tell them
was by a branding mark on their should-
ers. But Fido’s sagacity used to save us
a great deal of trouble. Every morning
the dog used to run in among the hogs.
“It is difficult to believe but it is an
actual fact that that dog got so that he
knew the branding mark. He would go
up to every hog in turn put his front
paws on the porker’s shoulder and look
at the mark. If it was ours he let the
hog go but if it was any other mark he
would take the hog by the ear lead
to the gate and then stand there bark-
ing until some one came to let it out.
“But Fido’s sagacity did not end there.
He soon got so that he knew every mark
so that when the gate was opened he
would lead the hog by the ear a short
distance in the direction it ought to go
and then stand there barking until it
was out of sight.”—Seattle Press.
Worked by the Gang.
A gentleman wllo makes it a point al-
ways to carry a few nickels in his jiocket
for any apparently worthy mendicant
whom he meets during his day’s wan-
derings started to cross City Hall park
from the Park row side yesterday after-
noon when he was approached by a
seedy individual whose face was almost
blue from the cold.
“Excuse me sir” said the seedy one.
“I have been down here for two days
from Boston and I haven't eaten—oh
thank you sir; you’re a gentleman” his
smudgy fist closing over the nickel.
The gentleman turned after taking a
dozen steps and saw the seedy one drop
his handkerchief. Instantly another
beggar sidled up and also got a nickel.
Like the first he was profuse in his
thanks and emphasized them by drop-
ping his handkerchief. Then came a third
with the plausible tale of a long and
weary walk from Philadelphia.
“See here” said the gentleman “I’ve
just been held up by two of your pals
and I think you are a gang of profession-
als. Skip!”
Number three took the advice but
failed to drop his handkerchief.—New
York Times.
Mrs. Stanley.
Mrs. Stanley is unlike any one I know;
she is quite herself. In the first place
she is tall much taller than American
women grow as a rule but she carries
her inches well and you would not sus-
pect her height unless you stood by her.
Her features are regular and are more
striking in profile than in full face and
she has a quantity of dry brown hair
that seems to be flying loosely about her
head though it is held well together
with unseen pins. Her house gowns are
what we call “aesthetic* for want of a
better word. They at least those that
I saw are made of soft clinging stuflte
and the collar that lies flat about her
neck is made of the same material.
She is a bright conversationist with-
out trying to be and a very enthusiastic
admirer of Mr. Stanley. Nothing ap-
parently makes her happier than to be
doing something for him. She told me
With great glee the other day that he
found that she could answer some of his
letters as well as be could himself.
About her own work she is very modest
and yet there is no artist in all England
who better depicts the life of children
than she does.—New York Letter.
Changes of Climate
Kill more people than is generally known.
Particularly is this the case in instances
where the constitution is delicate and
among our immigrant population seeking
new homes in those portions of the west
and where malaria and typhoid fevers
prevail at Tertain seasons of the year.
The best preparative for a change of cli-
mate or of diet and water which that
change necessitates is Hostetter’s Stom-
ach Bitters* which not only fortifies the
system against malaria a variable tem-
perature. damp and the debilitating ef-
fects of tropical heat but is also the lead-
ing remedy for constipation dyspepsia
liver complaint bodily troubles specially
apt to attack emigrants and visitors to
regions near the equator mariners and
tourists. Whether used as a safeguard
by sea voyagers travelers by land min-
ers or of agriculturists in newly popu-
lated districts this fine specific has
elicited the most favorable testimony.
