Frank ff. Stockton's Account Of His
Dog , "Fax. "
"One Sunday , as with n well-dressed crowd I
was goingr to church , I found Fax following
me. Knowing1 that he never entered n church ,
I took no particular notice of him ; but hap
pening' to look back a second time , I saw him
at my heels with a twist-loaf in his mouth !
He had been in the shop of an irreligious
baker in those few minutes. This was too
much for my sense of propriety , and as I fail
ed utterly to drive him off , and began to at
tract considerable attention , [ was obliged to
go down a side-street and so home. That dog
was never abashed. I have seen him chase
chickens into the very house of their owners ,
and , boforo their astonished eyes , pin the poor
fowls to the floor. Of course , at such times ,
I did not wish any one to think that I was ac
quainted with the dog. But on being discov
ered in any disreputable intrusion into house ,
store , or garden , it was his habit to run to us ,
and jog along demurely behind us , as much
as to say , "These aro the folks I belong to : If
you have anything to say , Eay it to them. "
And very often people did say it to us. "
From "Dogs of Noted Americans , " by Gert
rude Van li. Wickham , in St. Nicholas for
July.

A BAD CASE OF FLUX CURED.
My little bey about eight months old , was
taken with flux. After several days , wo com
menced giving Chamberlain's Colic , Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy according todirections.
"We were very uneasy about the child , and
sent for a physician. I told him what we had
been doing , and showed him the medicine.
He examined it , and told us the best thing we
could do , was to go ahead and give the remedy.
We used about half of a small bottle , and cur
ed the child , although the child was so slow ,
that he had no use of himself. Wo thought so
much of your Remedy that we would let no
one else have it. I told my wife a few days
ago that I must write , and tell you what your
medicine had done. G. W. Luoau , Zion's Hill ,

The following is the way New York has
gone for the last quarter of a century :
1S& . Republican.
1S6S. Democratic.
1&72. Republican.
• 1870. Democratic.
1SS0. Republican.
1884. Democratic.
So you see that no time since 1800 has the
state been carried in succession by the same
party. The indications are in favor of the re
publicans this year.
