A DOG STORY
Rescue Two of Their Kind That Were
in Distress
One of the most peculiar inci-v
dents in the annals of animal in
stinct occurred in Rutlandshire.
recently, the facts of which, says
r-earson s,are as follows: Squire
X is one of the best known char
acters in that part of the country.
A lew days ago he missed two of
his best pporting dogs, and his
general supposition was that they
bad been stolen. Recently how
ever, he was surprised to see one
of his pets walk into the house.
followed a minute later by the
other, both wearing the annear-
ance of utter destitution.
Investigation revealed the 'fol
lowing facts: While out shooting
a neighbor came across a brokeu
bank on his estate, and two of his
dogs showed uneasiness at a hole
iri the ground. Nothing he could
do would induce the dogs to leave
the spot, and lie finally secured a
spade and began digging for the
cause of the trouble,. Eight feet
of j earth was dug away before the
truth was out. Then he discov
ered the two dogs, evidently
buried from their own exertion in
endeavoring, to chase a rabbit.
They had been there for 13 days
and were nearly famished. On
their return to the Squire's house
they were followed by the animals
who had rescued themand prompt
treatment saved the lives of both.
Here's aTgood on from the Mon
roe Enquirer: "'VvV heard a story
some time ago which struck us as
being an exceedipgly good one
illustrating the greatness of being
a true Democrat. The atory run
neth thus: A good man died and
all his neighbors turned out to the
funeral. As there was no minister
present, an old friend of the de
ceased was asked t6 say something
after the coffin had been lowered
in the grave. The old fellow
walked slowly to : the- foot of the
open grave and delivered - the fol
lowing oration pvef the dead body
of his friend: "My friends there
lays as good a- Democrat as 7 water
ever wt or Ban ever dried.'. He
then turned slowly away with the
consciousness that he had done bis
full duty ? and had heaped the
highest praise upon bis fellow
being." .
We Have Not Yet FaUen so Low.
Jfew Berne Journal.
However desperate the position
of the Democratic-, party may be,
the majority of its 'members have
not fallen so low as to become the
political chattel of ar few design
ing and office-seeking politicians,
who, wearing the badge of Dem
ocracy in public, are in secret will,
ing to see their party destroyed, if
their own ends can thereby be
served.
The faithful and sincere Demo
crats of North Carolina, " however
they may individually stand upon
the currency question makes no
difference, cannot fail to denounce
these betrayers, and utter a protestl
against anything of a character
which means betrayal of the party
to Butler.
Not a word will be said against
the return of the Populists to the
Democratic ranks; and the indica
tions of a State convention for free
silver can be a sufficient excuse for
their returning, but for the Demo
cratic party to give itself up to
Marion. Butler, and follow his
beck and call; ought to arouse the
fury of every Democrat.
Let the anything-for-office Dem
ocrats go in to the Butler camp if
they will; let the Democratic party
go down in the next campaign,
but let it be defeated with its face
to the enemy, its principles intact,
and its political integrity un
sullied. Away with all offers of exchange
of principle for office, of fusion
with Butler to insure success! If
Democratic success can only be
attained through B'utlerism, may
the party perish rather than suc
ceed through such agencies.
Learn to Laug;h.
A good laugh is better than
medicine. Learn how to tell a
story. A well told story is as wel
come as a sunbeam in a sick room.
Learn to keep your troubles to
yourself. The world is too busy
to care for your ills and ssrrows.
Learn to stop croaking. If you
cannot see any good in the world,
keep the bad to yourself. Learn
to hide your pains and aches un
der a pleasant smile. No one
cares to hear whether you have the
earache, headache or rheumatism.
Don't cry. Tears do well enough
iu novels, but they are out of
place in real life. JLearn to meet
your friends with a smile. The
good-humored man or woman is
always welcome, but the dyspeptic
or hypochondrioc is not wanted
anywhere, and may be a nuisance
as well.
Selection of Seed Corn.
Farmers as a general rule are
not careful enough in their selec
tion and care oJ corn for seed.
Many practice storing their seed
corn in an open corn crib before it
is thoroughly dry. The germ of
corn being porous, absorbs mois
ture and being subject to hard
freezing during the winter. As a
result the germ re nartiallv or
wholly destroyed and the chances
of its growing under the most
favorable circumstances is very
limited. An authority says while
husking the best ears should be
saved and placed in a dry room
andycured by fire drying. Corn
treated in this way is sure to grow
and make vigorous and healthy
grow thiDro vers' Journal.
Wanted a Big- One.
The annual report of Biddefords
city missionary, just made public,
shows some queer sides of human
nature, as well as many pitiful
cases of suffering. For instance,
one woman, who had two or three
small Bibles, asked the missionary
fo get her one of thoaa nice family
Bibles, worth about ; $14 One
family who applied for aid were
found breakfasting' on fricasseed
rabbit, bread andA butter,' mince
pie, and tea, when the missionary
surprised them by the, unexpected
call.

How to Make Lemonade.
Here is a good way to make
