Dogs of Luxury.
The appearance of little dogs as ob
ets of luxury goes back to the most
aclent times. Documents are not
'anting that go to show that Greek
a*1 Roman women had little dogs
'hich were idolized by their mistress
;. Even men, particularly among for
Igners, were not ashamed to walk the
treets of Rome with pet dogs under
eir arms. Speaking of this subject,
lutarch relates that Julius Caesar,
eing one day in Rome some strangers
us loaded with their dogs, asked
2em ironically whether the women of
eir country did not bear children.

On a New Footing.
Mr. Absalom Foote, an eccentric old
entleman who had grown tired of life
the city, decided to move to some
mailer town, free from the roar of
raffic, the bustle and confusion of the
bronging multitude, where he could
nd his days tranquilly, as became a
aan of his age. In casting about for
location, his eye chanced to light
pon the advertisement in a village
aper of one Thomas R. coote, who
ranted to dispose of his boot and
hoe sto.re at a bargain, having made
ip his mind to remove to the city.
"That's the very thing," he said.
Selling shoes is a nice easy occups
ion. It will give me just enough to
o to keep me from stagnating, and it
von't wear me out with overwork.
'I investigate it. It's queer, though,
hat his name is Foote. my name is
'oote, he wants to come to the city
tnd I want to go to the country."
A visit to t:he little town decided
um. He liked its appearance and lo
2ation. He was pleased, moreover,
vith "Foote's Shoe Store" and bought
t good will and all, at a bargain.
"Well," said the other Mr. Foote,
'you won't hare to change the sign."
"No," he answered slowly. "PIl just
idd a little to it."
,The next day he added this, just
below the sign: "This place has
tanged feet "
For Sore Feet.

SHE WAS INSULTED.
The Sting In the Letter That Came
For Her Husband.
"Harry, love," said Mrs. Knew to her
husband when he entered his home a
few evenings ago, "I've been dread
fully insulted."
"Insulted?" repeated Mr. Knew in
dignantly. "By whom?"
"By your mother."
"My mother, Flora? Nonsense, dear.
She's the kindest woman in the world.
And how could she insult you? She
isn't here; she's miles away."
"But, Harry, she did insult me," per
sisted Flora, "and it was done in a
letter."
"Show it to me."
"I'll tell you about it. A letter came
for, you this morning addressed in
your mother's handwriting, and so, of
course, I opened it"
"Of course," said Mr. Knew dryly.
"It was written to you all the way
through, you understand?"
"Yes, I undertsand that, but where
does the insult to you come in?"
"In the postscript. When I read
along to that it said, 'Dear Flora
Don't fall to give this letter to Harry;
I want him to have it' Now, tell me,
wasn't that an insult?'- Pearson's

The Unprodigal Son.
The president of a club of New York
waiters said the other day of a par
simonious young man:
"He resembles a chap they tell about
in Bucks county.
"This chap lived alone with his
father. On the old man's death he
would inherit the farm.
"Well, finally the old man took sick.
His end drew near. The son sat up
with him a night or two, expecting
him to pass away, but he lingered on.
"On the fifth or sixth night the son,
J'nstead of sitting up, put a lamp,
turned low, very, very low, on a table
by the bed and went ofL' to his owi
room with the caution:
"'When you feel that it is all over

WHICH WAS RIGHT?
See if You Can Untangle the Knots In
This Problem.
A young man named Enathlus de
sired to learn eloquence and art of 1
pleading, and he bargained with Pro- t
tagoras, the ancient Greek sophist, for 1
instructions, agreeing to pay one half
of the fee down and the other half on
the first day he gained a case. It took
the young man so long to learn that
his tutor came to the conclusion that
he was delaying his start in business
to avoid paying the other half of the
fee, so Protagoras sued him for the
money.
When the case came up for trial Pro
tagoras said to the young man: "You
act most absurdly, young man, be
cause in either case you must pay me.
If the judges decide against you, you
must pay, and if they decide for you
you must pay, for you will then have
gained your case."
"You are wrong," replied the young
man. "I will win either way. If the
judges are for me, I will not have to
pay, and if they are against me I will
not have to pay, for this last was the
very bargain between us-namely, if I
did not win my case."
The judges considered the case inex
plicable, and as they could not see
their way to any decision they ad
journed the case to a day that never
came for any of the principals. On
Protagoras' side it was a case of los
ing when he won and on the young
student's side winning when hb lost.
ANIMALS AMBIDEXTROUS.
Why Man Gives Preference to Right
Hand Over Left.
Right handedness and right eyedness
came with genus homo. Dr. George M.
Gould has watched for them in squir
rels that use their front paws to hold
nuts, cats that strike at insects in the
air or play with wounded mice and in
many other animals, but he is certain
no preference is given to the right side
over the left
But in the lowest human savages all
over the world choice in greater ex
pertness of one hand is clearly present
One cause for its development is in
primitive military customs. In all
tribes and countries since man used
implements of offense and defense the
left side, where the heart lies, has been
protected by the shield, and the left
hand was called the shield hand, while
the right hand was called the spear
hand.
Next to fighting came commerce.
The fundamental congition of barter
ing was counting with the low num
bers, one to ten. The fingers of the free
or right hand were naturally first used,
and all fingers today are called digits,
as are the figures themselves, while
the basis of our numberings is the deci
mal or ten fingered system. Every drill
and action of the soldier from ancient
Greece to modern America is right sid
ed in every detail Firing from the
right shoulder and sighting with the
right eye bring the right eye into prom
inence.-Exchange.
Her Protector.
"Well, sir," explained young Mr.
Sooberbs, "It was like this: I thought
my wife might be afraid of tramps, so
I boutght her a watchdog. He was a.
fierce looking bull, and I reckoned he'd
about fill the bill I got him in the
morning and had him sent right out
to the house. When I got home that
night one of the toughest looking ho
boes you ever saw was sitting on the
porch. 'What in thunder are you doing
here? I asked. 'Well, boss,' says he, 'I

A Girl After His Own Heart.
A Scotchman, wishing to know his
fate at once, telegraphed a proposal of
marriage to the lady of his choice.
After spending the entire day at the
telegraph office he was finally reward
ed late in the evening by an affirma
tive answer.
"If I were you," suggested the opera
tor when he delivered the message,
"I'd think twice before r'd marry a
girl that kept me waiting all day for

Lace Made From Hair.
The most curious lace Is called point
tresse. It is very rare and was made
of human hair. French collectors say
that It exists in the present day only
in their cabinets. It was confined to
the early part of the sixteenth century.
Margaret, countess of Lennox, the
mother of the wretched. Darnley, sent
from the tower, where she was im
prisoned when her son, Lord Charles
Lennox, married the daughter of Bess
of Hardwicke, a bit of this kind of
lace to Mary, queen of Scots. This is
a very strong proof of her belief In the
queen's Innocence of the guilt thathad
been imputed to her. The little square.
of point tresse was worked by the old
countess' own hands from her own
gray hair. It was, in fact, hair mixed
with fine flax.-London Express.
Knew He Was Dead.
Some time after the occupation of
Manila by the American fors one of
the army officers was shown through
the old Spanish prison in that city. He
noticed a small opening through a
brick wall. Upon asking its use he
was told that prisoners were placed in
a cell behind it and walled up alive.
"You see, senor," said the guide, "as
long as the prisoner lived his food was
handed in on a plate, and he handed=
the empty plate back, but when he
handed the plate- back with the food
on it untouched, then the jailer knew
he was dead and didn't give him any
more."
Unterrifled.
The traveler was hurrying along the
unfamiliar trail that led in the gen
eral direction of his destination, when
suddenly a large abyss yawned before
him.
He was not in the least perturbed.
He was a lecturer, between travels,
and was accustomed to have things
yawn before him.-Chicago News

M PALS FOR BRAVER.
Decorations That -May Be Bestowed

Uncle Sam is not averse to bestow

Press. While the constitution prohb

president has the power-to'award in

Preserving the Balance.
A well known professor of architec~
tre, commonly referred to as "Ham
my" by his pupils, told a story illus
trative of the 'remarkable degree. to
which certain persons possess the sense
of symmetry.
It seems that there was once a
Scotch gardener who had charge of a
good sized English estate. and )mnder
whose direction the formal garden at
the rear had been laid out with abso
lute symmetry, even the two summer
houses, one on each side of the garden,
being identical in even the most minute
detail. On one occasion the English
man became angry at his son and
locked him up in one of the summer
houses. As soon as the Scotch garden
er heard of this his sense of symmetry
was so outraged that he Immediately
sent for his own son and locked him
up in the other summer house to pre
serve the balance. "Hammy" neglect
ed to mention whether both boys were
dressed exactly alike, but It is to be
presumed that even this detail was at
tended to by the aesthetic Scotchmian.

tThe Palisades.
To see New York city from the Pali
sades is to witness the multiple beau
ty and wonder of the Palisades them
selves. One of the most astonishing
Sfacts concerning these towering
masses of grandeur is that they lie so
.close to the most artificial, man sub
jugated area that civilization has
evolved, writes Philip 'Verrill Mighels
y In Harper's Magazine. To come upon
.the Palisades from the rear at night
is like stepping to the edge of the
world, where the slender, dark Island
lies low beyond as it it were only
a part of space, its countless lights
Slooking like millions of stars stretched
s for miles across the sky. The 111lu
eslon is dispelled when the 'wind flows
up with the tide to the base of the
'cliffs and lifts up the full throated
. ar f tensustantial city.
