Ono solution is that the "dog" Is really "dngga," a dagger, in allusion to tho prickles, a drawback from which tho Alexandra Day rose Is free. Unfortunately for this explanation, tho flower bears a similar name in countries where it will not apply. Tho Germans, for Instance, have-"nundsroso," and Pliny tells how a Roman mother was moved in a dream to send some roots of tho wild rose to her soldier son In Spain. They arrived just after he hail been bitten by a mad dog. Ho took,them and was preserved from hydrophobia, as wero others who adopted tho same treatment. And from that tlmo tho wild roso became tho "dog rose." London Chronicle.
