WHY A MAN LIKES A DOQ
Of Course There Are Other Reasons,
but These Are the Ideas of the
Suffragette Lady.
"Why does a man like a dog?" re
spoinded the suffragette lady, fierce?
ly, and repeated. "Why does a man
like a dog? Well, there are numerous
reasons, though a dog Is not a reason*
Ing being. A dog will lick the hand
that beats it; a dog will eat a crust
and a bone and bless the giver; a dog
thinks whatever a man does Is right
and proper; a dog has no rights that
a man is bound to respec*; a dog asks
no embarrassing questions; a dog Is
always grateful, no matter for what;
a dog does not ask the man to stay at
home nights; a dog is satisfied to love
the man whether the man loves the
dog or not; a dog submits to any and
all Impositions without protest; a dog
does not consider itself a man's equal;

Just as glad to see a man when be

PUT END TO FROG-FARMING
Audubcn's Scheme Might Have Been
Good but for One Small, Unfore?
seen incident.
There is an amusing story told in
connection with the first venture in
frog-farming ever made in the United
States.
Early in the last century Audubon.
the great ornithologist, went down the
Ohio river from Pennsylvania in a
Little steamer of his own. stopping at
various points to obtain specimens of
little-known birds.
While it Hendersonvllle, Kentucky,
which ho made his home for some
time, he built a mill and proposed to
raise frogs on a large scale, preparing
for that purpose a pond near the
river.
The frogs multiplied wonderfully,
and on warm summer evenings it was
the practice of Audubon to sit under
s tree near the pond, listening to the
concert given by his stock, and cal?
culating the amount of money he
should derive from the sale of the
grown frogs.
But one night, when the frogs were
nearly grown, they heard the booming
of bullfrogs in the Ohio. Their curios?
ity was aroused, and hopping out of
the pond, they made their way to the
river, into which they plunged and
disappeared^'
Feeding a Convalescent Child.
When my small son was convalea
cing from a recent illness the doctor
ordered hot gruels, broths, etc., aud
I realized tnatjt would require some
finesse to get him to take them.
So after I had prepared the little
dishes for the tray I rolled paper into
cones and stood one up over each lit
tie cup. Then I pinned a penny flag
onto one cone and, lo! I had Com?
pany "D" in camp and sonny and I
went visiting.
We stopped first at the captain*!
tent (where the flag was) and tt
partook of the treat offered. Then h*
went gayly from ^ent to tent, eagerly
lifting up the paper cones to soe what
was beneath.
The next day I made a log cabin
out of toasted bread strips piled lo?
cabin fashion. It inclosed a cup ol
beef tea, which he drank because It
was presented in a way that, appealed
to his imagination.
We played soda fount tin and h*
paid for his hot drinl.b with toy
money, and thus I accomplished mj
purpose without friction.?Hai per*4

Home Gambling,
A man may gamble at home with
impunity, according to the unanimous
"uling of the appellate division of the
New York supreme court. He may
(?r.gage In any game of chjnce, and
money may change hands, but it must
be at home The case which evoked
the court's decision grew out of the
it rest of a man who was caught !u
he act. with four others In the po?
lice court lie was held for the f;rand
jury on the charge of being a common
lambler. The county court sustained
the charge, and the defendant's at?
torney carried the case to the appel?
late division If the defendant had
neon caught gambling away from
home his ofTense would have been a
crime The Identical act committed
tsithiu his own four walls is not a
crime, for a man's home Is his
?castle." even If it Is only s flat Pre
Rumably the four other persons pres?
ent at the game also lived at the same
place, otherwise ihey would have
been offenders against the law -
