A RrmnrhnblF DogHe Prnys ami :
.Swears Lost for Two Years ICuw
He was Found.
Some yeaW ago 31r. F. II. Lane
took a snialPshwl Rpjjlisli hare dog to
his home in Xew York City. As tlie
tlojf wih veiT saptciou- iiih! of ";nI
disposition, no soon became a jier in
tlie family. They talleil blsi Beauty.
When Mr. Lane came home be wns
in the ftahil of takinff rtff hi eoai nnd
fretliiig liis slipx'rs. In a short time
utter Bentity beeaop n menilierof ilw
hoUJe-liold. as soon as Mr. Lane licjfiui
to take off liis coat. Beauty would
bring tlie slipper and lav tliem at liif
master's feet, without Is'itift lr)ulted
or tauirlit to do so. It KM the custom
of Mrs. Lane to have her little daujrh.
ter kneel before lier and say lief pray
ers immediately before retlriiifrto bra.
Beauty, after quietly obseivlng tlie
devotions for a tew evenings, would
invariably creep up to the little girl'"
side, and laying it head between its
paws in a reverential manner, remain
in that position until the prayer was
Huislasl. Other evidences of surpris
ing intelligence were shown bv Beau
ty, which endeared him to the nmily.
Two years ago Mr. Lane lost Beau
ty in the streets of Xew York. The
loss was keenly felt by Mr. and Mrs.
Lane and Iheir daughter. Since that
time tliey never passed a dog without
looking to see if it was not their lost
beauty.
On Saturday, while Mr. Lane was.
parsing through Fulton street, in Hill
city, his eves wen; gladdened by a
sight of his long lost dog. It was in
tlie possession of young Mr. Moft'llt,
son of Mr. David Moffat, merchant, 5
Jacob street.
"You have my dog, sir." said Mr.
Lane, tapping ' Mr. Moffat on tint
shoulder.
Mr. Moffat turned and saw the dog
leaping for joy around Mr. I.anc's
legs.
"When did you lose your dog?" in
qulred Mr. Moffat.
"About two years ago. down In the
swamp," replied Mr. Lane.
"It was about that time that some
toys chased him into my father's
store," said Mr. Moffat. "M'e have
taken good care of him since, and our
folks will grieve to part with him;
but if you can prove that be is yours,
1 am not the man to keep another's
property."
"Here, Beauty." said Mr. Lane,
pointing to a Iws, "jump up there,
and don't get dow n until I give you
leave."
Beauty instantly sprang to the top
of tlie Iwx.
"You have taken good care of him
for two years ; now try to get him
down." siiid Mr. Lane to Mr. Moffat.
At tbc least attempt on the part of
Mr. Moffat to coax him down, Beauty
snarled and showed his teeth.
"Xow gueeze," said Mr. Lane to
Beauty.
Beauty sneezed.
"Xow swear."
Beauty seemingly growled out, "D
m ml t."
"I am satisfied," said Mr. Moffat,
"that he Is your dog. I was just tak
ing him up to our summer residence
at Cold Springs. There will lie tear"
in the eyes of two lads there, who play
hide antl seek with the dog, when I
arrive without him."
The joy experienced by Mr. Lane'"
family on the return of Beauty neu
tralized the pain they felt on taking
the dog from tlsj people who had tak
en such good care ot him.

Nae stockings on Iter feet,
Her supple ankles white as snow
Or early blossoms sweet
Her simple dress of sprinkled pink,
Her double dimpled chin ;
Her puckered lip and baumy mou
With nae ane tooth between.

Her lace is like an angel's faee

The following gem, hi one of Wen
doll Phillips' speeches, should be read
hrevery family :
A rriotner.oti the green hills of Yer-
i moot was holding by the right hand a
! son, sixteen years old, mad with the
love of the sea. And as lie stood by
the garden gate one morning, Am
said :
"Edward, tliey tell me for I never
saw the ocean that a great tempta
tion of a seaman's lite is drink. Prom
isi! me. before you (juit your mother's
hand. Hint von will never drink."
"And," said he, for he told the story.
"I gave the promise, and I went tlie
glone over, to Calcutta, and the medi
terranean, San Francisco ami theCais;
of Oood Hope, the Xortb Pole ami the
South ; I saw them all in forty years
and I never saw n glass tilted with
sparkling liquor that my mother's1
form by the gate did not rise up be
fore me, and to-day 1 am innocent of
the taste of liquor."
Win rtot that a sweet evidence of
the iiowcr of a single word ? But that
is not half-"For, "said he, "yesterday
tliere came into my countingrooin a
man of forty years."
"Ho von know me?"
"Xo."
"Well," said he, "f was brought
drunk in your presence on shipboard ;
yon wis ti passenger ; tliey kicked mo
aside ; you took me to your berth anil
kept me there until I had s'ept off the
Intoxication : you then asked me if I
had a mother? I said I had never
known a word from her lis. You
told me of yours and the garden gate,
and to-day I am master of one ot the
finest ships In New York, and came
to ask you to come and see me."
How far that little candle throws Its
beam. That mother's word on (he
green hills of Vermont? God be thank
ed for tlie mighty power of a single
Word".
The following raey examination of
a candidate for admission to tlie bar is
taken from tho IPesterM Imc Jwwnul,
and is decidedly a good hit :
The examination commenced with
"Do you smoke, sir?"
"I do, sir."
"Have you a spare cigar?''
"Ye, sir." (extending a short six.
"Xow, sir, what is tbc first duty of
a lawyer?"
"To collect fees."
"Bight. What is the second ?"
"To increase the number of his cli
ents." "When does the position towards
your clients change ?"
"When making out a bill of cost."
"Explain."
"We then copy the antagonistic po
sition I assume' the plaintiff and he
becomes defendant."
"A suit decided, how do you stand
with the lawyer conducting the other
bill?"
"Check by jowl."
"Knough, sir; you promise to be
come an ornament to your profession,
and I wish you success. Xow, are
you aware of the duty you owe me?"
"Perfectly."
"Pcseribe if."
"It is to Invite you to drink."
"But suppose I decline ?"
(Candidate, scratching his head.!
"There is no Instance of the kind on
record In the books. I cannot answer
tho question."
"You are l ight ; ami the confidence
with which von make tlie assertion
shows that you have read law atten
tively. Let's take a drink and I will
signy our certificate."
Some few years ago there was a no
tary public iu Washington, an old and
highly respected gentleman, who had
held his office through all the political
twistiugs and turnings of our capital
for nearly twenty years. A young
friend was in his oillce one day, ami
while sitting by the table picked up a
small, old, leather-covered book which,
upon being opened, proved to ts
"ThaiUicus ot Warsaw." iiecasuaiiy
remnrked to Mr. Smith, tlte notary :
"I sec you have a copy of Thaudcus
of Warsaw here."
"Tliaddeus of Warsaw!" was the
reply. "What do you mean?"
"Why, is this a copy of it."
"Thaddeus of Warsaw !" exclaimed
the old gentleman. He snatched tfw
book, gave one glance at it, and then
cried out, "For twenty years I have
been swearing people on that book,
thinking it was the Bible ! AH those
oaths nhrt worth the paper they are
written on!"
That very day he patronized the
Bible Society Agency, and got a finely-bound
copy, which could oy no pos
sibility be mistaken for a novel.
