One day when there was a pouring nut a uuui cuuwawu w mu Lvr mo &L illw Kin where I was staying. He brought Lis collie with him and both of them were dripping wet, so he put off his flaid and laid it on the floor by the dog.

The dog took the end of it between Ids teeth and dragged it out of the room. After I bad finished the drover's por trait I asked Jbim if he thought his dog would lie quiet for a time, as I wished to akfitori him r ....... "Oh, yes, mon," he answered, "he'll o-' anything , I say i to him. ; Watcht "Watch!" he called, and then "whustled" for him, as the Scotch say.

The cedar chests in the As tor mansion which contain the superb underwear of .the queenly Mrs. Astor are perfect house hold ornaments in themselves, with deep ngraven gold lockers with the initial "A" wrought in finest carving upon its surface. Inside the chest, neatly folded in webs of choicest linen, are the dainty garments of society's queen. Each week, aa they leave the ironing sheet, they are laid within the chests to await the bid ding of the owner. Every article of this Buperb wardrobe is stitched by hand, and no materials but the purest and finest of linens and cambrics are used. They are all elaborately trimmed with lovely point and duchesse laces, and the initial "A" is daintily embroidered on every article. In the same orderly manner Mrs. As tor arranges her footwear, which is equally as exquisite; only the cedar chests have apartments molded in which each slipper and boot fits perfectly and keeps its shape. By the way, Mrs. Astor has a very ' pretty foot for an old lady. Her ankles ATA ATTlnll OT1 (1 QT-ml TT a-nA fnaa n extremely narrow. Her daughters, Mrs. Coleman Drayton and Mrs. Orme Wil son, have neither of ( them such, pretty feet, and they are eternally envying their mother her beautiful feet and adorn ments. New York Cor. Pittsburir Dis paten. -- Charles Dickens and the Dog. "Every one remembers Dan Brosna han, the old sexton tf St. Patrick's," said Mr. H. A. Preston.' -"Dan had a little dog, a homely cur, with . the most plebeian blood in his veins, ', but a re--markably clever animal. He would fol . low the sexton everywhere, and the only way to restrain him was behind closed doors. One night about twenty-three years ago Charles Dickens gave a read ing in Carroll hall. Dan was on hand to look after the hall, rigged in a dress coat out of deference to the great occa sion. He had forgotten the dog, but the dog was on hand. "In one of his readings the great nov elist came to this passage, ' "Bow-wow-wow," barked the little dog.' He gave it a realistic rendering, and almost with his words came a responsive and lifelike echo,. 'Bow-frow-wow.' There stood Dan's little yellow cur, directly in front Mf tKia Tt4 ni m.nnA .1 i e .-i v wv.w wuim?v, UUO great men of the nation, mocking their guest . Dan dragged the dog out, terri " bly mortified, but Dickens said it was one of the finest -compliments he ever re ceived." Washington Post No Excuse for Late Hoars. ' There would seem to be no excuse for the late hours which society prescribes for its ceremonies. Late evening par ties for children are admitted to be in jurious. ' But we are all children or ought to be, so far as the laws of health are -concerned. We ' do not, as many think, by age earn a right to violate the laWfl of hAAlt.1l Nairn tolriifi na H. in one way or another. - One difficulty at the foundation of our social life is that we do not admit We do not set apart time for them, but insist, if forced into them by fashion, upon taking them out of time that ought to be given to rest of mind and body. The day must all be given to business, up to its latest : available hour, and then we take from hours that should be given to sleep time. for social duties.

"I noticed a short time, ago," said a Washington official, "that some objec tion was made by a Mr. Pell, of the San Domingo Shore Line road, to the open ing of a private letter by the chief of the secret service bureau. It is not generally known that the rules of the postoffice department empower inspectors to. open suspicions ; letters at discretion. The public appear to be very much astonished at this proceeding mentioned, but I assure yon that it is carried to a greater extent than even those who know all about it suppose. In fact, under the rules of the postoffice department almost anyprivate letter can be opened and read. This will surprise some people, I presume, but it is nevertheless brae, and a reference to the private instructions to postoffice in spectors, which are in printed form, will convince anybody of it. Whether such secret privileges are ever used illegiti mately would be difficult to find out. It is a good deal like arresting a man on sus picion. As a matter of fact, therefore, yon will see the United States mails are no more sacred than the mails in Russia or any other country so f ar as govern ment espionage is concerned." -New York Herald. - OItIic Wood a Good Color. -Many hard woods of superior color and grain may be greatly improved by treatment. The graining or marking of the wood is always a beautiful feature, and it can be greatly improved and ac centuated, if faint, by giving the entire piece one coat of raw oil, and then with a camel's hair brush going over the vari ous' lines and yeinings several times. Each coat increases the color. A Blight coat of varnish will help ' to keep the color. New York Tribune. . The common afflictions of women are sick-hcad-aoIie3, indigestion and nervous trembles.
