BEST'OF HUNTING DOGS.
' The Beagle in the Future to lie‘the spurts-
man's Delight.
Beagles are useful little hounds, and
not at all commOn in this country,
although bound to be in the near fu-
ture, that is, where hunting is a sport.
The beagle may be kept with little
trouble at no very great outlay. This
in itself is one of the reasons that they
are the hunting dog of the future.
You must have three couple at least,
but to take a fair. average, five couple
is the best, and with this number one
may have many a stirring run. Indeed,
there is no member of the canine spe-
cies with which so much may be dOne
as the beagle. He is a very clever dog;
his qualities are patience, reflection and
endurance; invariably the pack
hunt in a lump, and seldom straggle
away from their companions.
The great thing is to let him have his
own Way.’ He understands far better
than you do the twists and the doubles,
the shift and dodges, to which the hare
resorts when pursued. .
When it is purposed to take the
beagles out hunting on the following
day, they should be fed about 1 o’clock,
and then be shut up until they are
wanted. The start should not be de-
layed a. moment later than 10:30
o’clock. The sooner you are at work
the better, as, if your beagles have
been fed at the proper hour on the pre-
ceding day they will be quite ready for
their work.
Judiciously handled, many a day of
most delightful amusement may be
obtained with'a few couple of beagles,
but do not, on any pretense whatever,
allow‘ people on horseback—Chicago

ECCENTRICITIES OF A CAT.
Always Ascends in the Elevator When
\Vishing to Visit an Upper Floor.
A slender black cat in the Boston
Postoflice building has developed a
number of traits that make her a most
interesting study. She is fearless and
independent, and yet quiet and tame as
a lady’s pet. She has a number of
places in the building to visit, partic-
‘ularly on the third floor, where there
is a young lady whom she likes to call
upon at frequent intervals, and instead
of running up and down the stairs, as
other cats naturally would do, she
takes an elevator. With an air of im-
posing dignity, she takes up a position
among the rest of the passengers wait-
ing for the elevator and when she gets
on board the elevator she looks earnest
ly through the domes the elevator as-
cends. Lacking means to signify
where she intends to get off she re-
mains in the car until it stops at her
desired destination, : and even
force, unless it is irresistible,
cannot make her leave the el-
~reaches the : floor
where she wants to go. The elevator
men-knowher habits so well-that it
she hapens to be the only passenger
going up they generally offer her the
third floor first. As she returns from
a visit, she: again avails herself of the
elevator service, whether she wishes to
go up or down for it is a matter of
course with her to complete her round
injthe upper part of the building while”
she is up that wayL

see a Slender figure in a plain black
gown, with white cape and apron,
moving around among the pews. She
is, perhaps, dusting the hymnals, ar-
‘ ranging the cassocks or putting notices
-in the racks. She will, however, come
forward, answer your questions, direct

part of her duty to remain respectfully

their fancy and walk off with it. The

and gives to the edifice many touches
of which the janitor is incapable.

A CLOCK FOR THE DEAF.
The Pnpils’ Attention Called Hourly B)
It to the School Programme.
One of the interesting items of the
State expense charges for July, says
the St. Paul Globe, appears in the cura
rent lists of the State school for the
deaf. at Faribault. It is an item of
$252 for a. clock, which is remarkable
in more elements than lumen; of its
expensive character. ,
But this mechanism is certainly a.
wonder, for it is so arranged that it
calls the pupils’ attention hourly to
the school programme and the calcu-
dar, in spite of the fact that they are
all deaf and the usual alarms do not
affect them in the least. '
Of course one clock would not be
visible to all the pupils, so there are
ten secondary clocks, with 12-inch di-
als, which tell the teachers and schol-
ars who cannot see the main clock
what class in mathematics is now due
to count up fractions on its fingers, or
,when the scholars in English gram-
mar will write their lesson leaflets.

HOW TO FIND OUT.
urine and _let it stand twenty-four
hours; a sediment'or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the“ kidneys
When urine stainsl-inen it is evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back, is also
convmcmg proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order.
WHAT To-Do.
There is comfdrt in the» knowledge so
often -. expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
SwampéRoot, the great kidney remedy
fulfills every wish in relieving pain‘ in
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the_.urinary passages. It
corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad ef-
fects following use of liquor, wine or
beer. and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to urin-
ate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
It stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases. If
you need a medicine you should have
the best. Sold by druggists, price fifty
cents and one dollar. You may have a.
sample bottle and pamphlet both sent
free .by mail. Mention THE GAZETTE,
and send your address to Dr. Kilmer &
Co_., Binghamton, N. Y. The pro-
.prletors of. this paper guarantee the
genuineness of this affair. -
