To the mind of the true dog lover there are few human passions not shared in by the dog. The dog is sub ject to anger, Jealousy, hatred, envy, love and grief, and it shows gratitude, pride, courage, generosity and fear. It sympathizes with its master In bis troubles, and there are numerous cases on record where dogs have rendered the most valuable kind of service at great risk to their own safety and com fort The dog has an excellent mem ory, It is capable of associating ideas, and Its Judgment is often singularly correct. These are the qualifications which raise the dog above all other animals and fit him for the compan ionship of man. It has the physical and Intellectual faculties that never fall to arouse our love and admiration. Pet and companion of old folks, guar dian and playmate Of children, friend and servant of man, behold the dog! Long live this noble animal! William Wood In Philadelphia Ledger. First Sleeping Cart.

The middle tier consisted of the back of the omnibus seat, hinged and supported in tbe same manner. The lower tier was the day seat along the side of the car. There was no charge for sleeping ac commodations. Philadelphia Press. Your Watch and the Sun. In addition to telling you the time of day your watch may be used for keep ing track of the sun. When the orb of day finishes its day's Journey and dis appears in the west note the time by your watch. Then draw a horizontal line (Imaginary, of course) from the point of the hour hand to the opposite side of the dial. The time Indicated by the line on this side will be tbe time at which the sun rises lu the morning. Thus if the sun sets at 8 at night the line shows that it will rise at 4 in the morning; if it sets at 7 it will rise at 5; if at 5 It will rise at 7, ami so on. - A Round About Trip.
