Moving tioiselcxsly nhout through ths prass and underbrush or perhaps a field of K'idn, they will uot be apt to ut tract attention. The French have tried the Ppitz dog for a similar service, but with indifferent success. He lacks courage, and while very bright he docs not possess the grit and self-control of the Herman shepherd doi. lljs color, which is milk white, is nlso against him, for he run bo very eius iljr seen tt tiiht. Oddly enough these Herman dogs take kindly to beer. A Ber lin paper tells of n dog belonging to an oflicerofn North tirrman regiment which takes his brer regularly, mid to such ucciss, whenever eunuch is offered him, as to beronie exceedingly hilarious. When he and his master go out for a good time they return in it state of hearty good fellowship and intoxication. Tlcer being the national bevcriiue the dogs nro offered more or h of it in every house hold, until they find it tpiite as satisfying s wrtcr.

UOKDS OK WISDOM. Modesty is the politeness of conceit. HrackLsh water is sweet in a drouth. Oblivion is the older brother of stoic Ism. In the journeys of life the pleasures aro halls. Don't clean your fish til! you catch them. A hungry stomach is ready for any. thing. lie that loves to be flattered is worthy of the flatterer. It is better to be sensitive than to be dellcietit in sense. Much money, many dishis; 1 i 1 1 1 c? money, little wishes. The tuosf manifest sign of wisdom is continued cheerfulness. Compulsory society destroys the object for which society e.xis's. Never marry but for love, but s, e that thou lovest what is lovily. There wouid be none to reform if the reformers were all reforimd. The most lonesome man is he who is seeking some one to lean upon. likcessive labor is wrong, but judicious labor is the sufcty valve of life. Industry tired no! wish, and he that live upon people will die fasting. The man who niccccd. in imitating another will be an original failure Falsehood can make tin lu st spurt, but truth can do tiie siniulii st trotting.
