Nature demands sleep, and
it is as important as food; it

FELLOWSHIP OF DOGS. I
Always Hope For a Man Who Is Fond
of an Ordinary Cur.
I have seen n few wretches in my
day, never saw one so utterly
lost to decency he could not be
flattered by the friendly attentions j
of a strange dog. There is a great
lesson in that. No matter how
c try to seem to ourselves
and others, a small voice within us
will not let us wholly forgot what
we are. In the presence
of our kind we are brawn. The
calm of a child sometimes

knowing look of a c it.
There is something in brute
that perplexes the
man and his in-
tuition. Man is so made that what
he understand exercises
greater over him than that
which he can. In the presence of
many phenomena he reveals himself
openly and quite unconsciously. He
is then no longer master of the
of his soul. He drops his
grotesque outer garb-
his brazen shield falls to the ground,
and he cowardly retreats or
succumbs without resistance.
There is some hope for the man
who is capable of feeling ashamed
in the presence of an honorable dog.
That man bus avenues open to him
for advancement His soul is still
fit for expansion. His brain is some-
thing more than a dried nut. His
heart has not turned entirely into a
thing rubber and valves. When
a strange dog greets him he thinks
better of himself. Unconsciously he
that am, I am
not so bad after all as I might be.
You can't fool I and a dog is no
hypocrite. Therefore have good

noble dog shows him marked favor
he becomes almost

they would at once insist upon

a friend through his disgrace and
disaster I cannot deny that a dog re-
pealed this nobility of character to
me for the first time in my life. If
have gratitude, I saw it tint in a
dog. If have enterprise, he did
not neglect my early lessons. If I
have initiative, so had my first
friend. If I am affectionate, so was
he. If I nm patient in adversity
without arrogance In affluence
I could have acquired this noise
of mind better from men than from
dogs. If am watchful over weak-
