Tho program com mil tee for the approaching State Convention is now working on the program for this conference, accord ing to Mr. Palmer, and at t'ho con ference various phases of Sunday school work with practical plans and methods for promoting lt, will bo discussed. "In my judgment," Mr. Palmer went on to say, "ono of tho weakest points in Hie work of tho local coun ty and district associations is the lack of publicity work. Few of our local Sunday school association workers appreciate tho importance and necessity of publicity, and fewer still know how to propare articles in suitable form. "Al this conference the program committee will endeavor to have an experienced newspaper man speak on the subject, "How to get and write Sunday school dope that the editors want to print." S. $. S.

Can I havo ,tho dog? Say, pa, can I? Can 1?" This somewhat incoherent and hazy query cam? from an elder bro ther, who had arrived at the ago of shot-gun and dog, and cigarettes made of rabbit-tobacco. He was now sitting on tho top step of tho piazza, with knees drawn up and hugged to his chest. Father, to whom this ear nest appeal was addressed,'was quite comfortably tilted back against the piazza post Iii his reading chair, try ing to peruse bis daily budget of news. With ext rome deliberation he brought the fore legs of'his chair lo tim lloor, folded his paper, carefully placing it near on thc door. "Just what am i to understand you to moan, my son? he asked, af ter due reflection. This did not sound ono bit encouraging, but a bit less hopeless as he glibly quoted from our recently recited grammar lesson: "The indefinite article a o? an belong to nouns of tho singular number; the definite articlo tho be longs to nouns of the singular or plural number." After having duly impressed this lesson "upon us, he again requested a repetition of the query. The barom eter was most decidedly declining, but the very earnestness of the sup plicant gave him courage to explain: "Sir, "a dog" moans are you will ing that 1 should have a dog; "the dog" pertains lo a very particular dog Davis Cant (our sub-tenant) has promised me, by your leave." After this daring explanation I ex pected to seo Ervine unseated and stand at attention, but tho humor bf tito situation seemed to have gotten under the skin of the pater, and ho was thouroughly enjoying himself. He appeared to give the matter very grave consideration, then asked: "My son, can you specify any par ticular reason why a dog should be annexed to my household." "Yes, slr-oh, yes, .sir!" quickly replied tho boy, adding as explana tion which bo foresaw would bo coming: "Ho will grow to bo a clog just right, and a dog that ono might well he proud of-a great protection lo the house, and a terror to the prowling rabbits." "Who will keep him, feed him and water him, and 'cherish him in sick ness and in health'? again asked tho inquisitor from tho seat above. To which Ervine replied, very much Uko a scared bridegroom, "I will." As an after-thought, running truo to his sex, he added, by way of distribut ing responsibility, "Emma will help me." Then to mo, perhaps remem bering that he had omitted the for mality of consulting nie on tho sub ject, he asked: "Now, didn't you?" Being placed by "Providence" right In tho midst of a bunch of boys, and having two brothers older than myself and two younger-and tills by no means being all of the family-il had long since learned the unwritten law of "sticking up to a buddy." I therefore ran my neck into the noose by answering "yes," and that settled it. This settled, Er vine and J adjourned to the hack on try, whore our committee on ways and means wont promptly Into exec utive session. Wo were soon inter rupted, however, by the voice we had better hoar, clearly calling,"James, James, como hither!" Ervlno's face registered concern; and well lt might, for, his name be ing "Jamos Ervine," pa had a way of calling him James upon occasions all to closely nilled with the chas^ kening rod-when there had been mischief afoot. This was indeed omi nous. As the same rule "applied to mo as distinguishing between Emma and Emily, d quickly rocognizod tho symptoms, and, through sympathy, closely followod In his wake. "Did I call you, Emily?" tho pater asked, ns he looked up from the pa per he was again perusing. "No, sir; I did not hoar you." "Then why did you come-out of curiosity?" "Just came with Ervine," I floun dered. "Yos, when ono comes whore they have no business, .they usually got into some. As you carno unbidden, my lass, you shall havo your work to do. Go and sot tho table; put the slipper on, and call us when all is rcr.dy" To Ervine ho gave sonio direction about feeding (he stock-a chore al ways put off by him until reminded of lt hy a senior member of the household, or by highest authority * Bright and early on tho' morrow LILY HIIONICDED INCIDENTS IN THE^ HOUND DOO." ll. Dendy.) Ervine, who usually had to bo prod 'ed along with his turn of corn to mill, shouldered his sack promptly, and made off In the goneral direction :.no trail . J -.ho mill. Ills prompt ness was not a sign of his zeal in supplying the "full meal barrel," but to get out of sight before pa should have a chane's to recall him and say that he had ieconsldored the matter of the dog. The negro cabin where lived the prized pup was only a shoit le toil r off the beaten path. As Er vine rounded tho trail around the garden, well'ct of siglu of the pa ternal oyo, he vigorously beckoned < io him, and :old nie of a certain nystorious looking bundle hidden behind tho wh!t? oak; which he bade me fetch to him with all s^ecd. This bundle had bee.:! carefully placed be yond the range of the paternal eye, I and upon bein;.; released turned out to be a crocus s; ok wound with much hemp string. This had been surrop . itiously pilfered from a hoarded pile neatly stacked beneath the crib shel ter for the purpose of sacking grain and nuts at harvest. Davis had assured Ervine that 'dat ar pup'U sho' hatter be plum hinefblded, so's he won't fine his way back home, fo* sho's he ketch sight er me, ain't nothin gwinter keep him from fol lorin' me homo-jes ain't nnt?herly nothin'." Hence Hie sack. Ervine now out ot sight around tho ben 1 of tho hill, I busied myseif with my morning's work, which somehow held no interest for me my mind was on other things. The old hen with her brood of young chicks, Mt too young to turn out in Hie dew, had to ho fed; John Calvin, our big brindle cat, also, had to have his breakfast. Timo hung heavily, however, and I had to go constantly to the crest of the hill to sec if Er vino had yet hove into sight. Hoing at last rewarded by hearing a keon whistle, made In the manner known to all boys, by that of Inserting the little finger into the inner side of the cheek, I hurried to meet him and get avglimp8o of tho probation pup, willoh was carefully lowered to the ground for inspection. 1 was per mitted to take a peep at him through an air vent made in tho sack to keep the pup from being asphyxiated. We then marched, somewhat shakily as to kneos, right up lo the front, piazza, where pa sat in his accustomed seat awaiting us, that court might open. Himself being the judge and jury, and the all things pertaining to tho court of common pleas to tho court of last appeals. Ervino opened the gannie sack, and out came the dog-not playful and hounding, as one would natur ally suppose, but ho slunk out. in a regular "nigger dog" fashion. If any thing could bavo marked the pedi gree this act surely did. Whatever good trait might be developod In thc futuro certainly was not forecasted in his present appearance, for he was certainly not a pleasing aspect. Ills body was long and- thin, ribs pro nouncedly all visible, legs thin and wobbly, ending in large splay feet; oars long and floppy, oyes without one glint of humor; and over each was a single eyebrow-ono long, bristly hair, surrounded by a yellow patch of hair about the size of a dime. This gave him rather a sinis ter appearance of having four eyes. Ills tall, howover, was tho most ex pressive thing about bim. lt being | long and slim, and rising and falling ns belltting tho occasion. 'Unable to stand the suspense any longer, Ervine ventured to ask, "What do you think of him, slr?" (At this inquiry pa, without remov ing his eyes from tho pup, arose alertly and fairly capered about the pup, oxecutlng a sort of war danco, and, still with his eyes closely ob serving the pup, quoted: "And In that town a dog was found, lAs many dogs there be, Doth mongrol puppy, whelp and hound, 1 And curs of low degree." Thon, looking most gravely, as befitted tho occasion, at tho anxious face of my brother, ho continued: "I hardly know how to classify this specimen, but it occurs to me that I have never yot seen quite such an unattractive specimen of 'nigger dog' -no, not ono." This was indood disconcerting, hut lt did not exactly sound final. "Just what do you think ho will bo good for, and can you give any good rea son why a 8poclmen Uko this should bo attached to my household?" Ervine roadily roplled: "Yes, sir; J think in tinto you will find that ho In a new packag At a price that The same unmat TURKISH. VIRGIE is a 'dog just right, and ti dog that ono might well bo proud of. Ho will bc a most valuable watch dog, and a terror to tho prowling rabbits, and lo other dogs." "You may koop him, my son, pro vided you don't let him suffer for want of food and^rink, and that ho is not permitted to cross tho thresh old." .Being now In possession, tho next step was to give him an appropriate nome. On account of ibo yellow spots over his eyes tho name of Argus was suggested by me and was promptly vetoed by Ervine. "Sirius," 1 again ventured, but was again "steam lolled by the male voters, who were In the majority. Being allowed one more suggestion, no doubt for tho! purpose of enabling them to knew what they dido'i want, l hazarded 'Cassius,' for he certainly had "that lean and hungry look" that the name implied. 1 was again in the* minor ity, and thereafter held my ponce. Pa, representing the balance of |)ower, suggested "Tally" as being the right and proper name for a dog of his low origin, and 'Ervine, with Liuo political instinct, quickly agreed to that, afterward explaining to me that if pa named him ho would then have a sort of personal Interest in him, which would ho most desirable for tho good of the pup, as lt look ed rather as though he was foreor dained to havo rather a hard time of lt anyway. Being accepted and named, we now carried him around to the back door, where he was fed on tho choic est scraps from the table. He bolted, his food in a manner indicating that ho had never had a great deal to eat during his short life. Then, being satisfied with food, he began Hie du ties of tho day by accumulating and depositing tho choicest rubbish on the front door step right beneath the critical oyo of the pater-a thing ene of the children would not dare do. This was error number one, bul he got away with it. Ho chasod tho chickens, chewed the broom, moved pa's garden shoes from their accus tomed place, laying them with pride on tne piazza immediately in front of pa. In fact, bo managed to make himself, In a remarkably short time, quite a nuisance , After ho had been with us for three (lays, and had loamed tho lay of the land, we decided that it was about time that Tally should bo Ini tiated into tho ancient and honora ble rite of "dog canning." At. the first auspicious time, when pa had gone to the postofflco for his mail, we quickly assembled tho necessary Implements - four, empty tomato tins; a pocket full of shelled peas, supplied from tho harvest basket on the piazza shelf, where pa had care fully placed thom; a cow bell, a (Continued on Seventh 'Pago.)
