The master had . always treated the terrier well m fact, it had never been punished. On the day in question the gentleman was at his table. The little Skye saw a cutlet near the edge ot the board, and yielded to the temptation to steal the meat. The cutlet was slyly seized and taken nnder the sofa.

'"Prove all things, hold fast that which is good, "has as much to do with the practical side of life as it has with the moral side. Our leaders will bear testimony that in all questions dis cussed in the Index, the practical has been duly set forth, in this paragraph therefore, we only seek- to present an article worthy of commendation. After subjecting it to the above test we have tried Swift's Specific and found it good good as a blood purifier, good as health tonio.
