Association Causes the Brute to Imi tate the Human Bcinc. One of the most curious traits to be 'oilnd in the animal nature , said an ob- ipn-ant citizen , is that which grows out t the unconscious iinitativeness of creatures of the lower order. I have observed many Instances of where the creatures of a lower order have taken on the characteristics in some notice able degree of members of the humau familjOne might know , for instance , the beggar's dog , just from the look of the dog , from the droop of the eye , the pathetic hang of the lip and a certain general air of despondency and hope lessness which seem to speak in the very nature of the animal. 1 mention the beggar's dog because it is a fa miliar example. The beggar's dog nevet looks cheerful , never smiles , never frol ics , but simply sits by his master and broods and begs for whatever charity ma3' give. "I have seen the dog character mold ed under happier influences and the doii become more cheerful. lie was a light- hearted , free-and-easy sort of creatun and seemed to get something of tin1 sun- tier side of things. I am almost tempt ed to say that if you will show me n man's dog I will tell you what mannei of man the owner is , with particular reference to tempera men t and lite moods. The melancholy man. the man who grovels mentally along the gloom ier grooves ; the pissimistic man , Avho is always looking at the dark side of the picture ; all the men who come within these unhappy classilu-ations rarely own a cheerful dog. The dog uncon sciously takes to tinways of his mas ter , and in his moods imitates the mas ter's way of thinking. But turn to the dog of the jolly , cheerful fellow. Watch him show his teeth in laughter when the master approaches , lie is darting across the yard and dancing and frisk- Ing around the master's feet in the hap piest way imaginable , and he is up to all kinds of pranks and does all kinds of little things to indicate the good na ture that is in him. He does as his mas ter and seems to take the same general view of life. These are small things , 1 guess , but they show just how iiriport- ant one's actions are in life. Even one's way of thinking may influence one's dog and change his whole view of life. Xew Orleans Times-Democrat. HOTBEDS OF BRIGANDAGE. The Numerous Baud it Bands of Bul garia ami Macedonia. Bulgaria and Macedonia are the hot beds of brigandage , known as such for ages. The territory is mountainous , crossed by no regular thoroughfares except the paths worn in the rovks l > \ the K-et of the caravans of centuries. These districts : ue populated Jy Bul garianslbaniaus , and Turks , living in small towns among the iuouiaius , where a hard and precarious living fan be wrung from the stony soil only un der the most favorable conditions. With little or no protection from the iroeminent , and subject to repeated and heavy assessments upon their > canty crops and straggling herd : , by the rovfng bands of brigands , whose itroiucliolds are in the same mountain fastnesses , it is not a surprise that the people become restless and learn to look upon the brigand leader as a great and powerful man. Fathers appren * tice their sous to these leaders of law lessness and crime to learn the profes sion , with the earnest hope and prayer that by their prowess and strength , they , too , in due time may be at the head of a robber baud of their own. The region , moveover. is especially adapted for brigandage , because it ia the meeting place of Europe and Asia , wh < re lawlessness and rapine are fos tered by the intense race rivalry and hatred that consequently prevails. liev. Dr. .Fames L. Barton , in Woman's Home Companion. A Jjineal Descendant. The fruit that grows ou the genealog ical tree is generally dry , but occasion ally has a flavor of humor. "Sylvanua Urban" tells in the Cornhill Magazine a story which is good enough to per petuate. One need not question its au thenticity too closely. A man applied to the herald's collega for a coat of arms. In such a case it id pleasant to be able to borrow one from u celebrated ancestor. The man in question could not remember any thins about his great-grandparents , and therefore , of course , could not mention any achievement by them which could be used as the basis of a coat of arms. But the orlicial to wliouj he appll * d was not easily discouraged. "Have you not done something your- self ? " he ask'Ml. 'Nothing. I fear , ' ' said the man. add ing as a pathetic antithesis that once , having been lucked in Lmlgute prison Cor debt , he had found means to escape from an upper window. , v "And how did you get downV" "I got a cord , fixed it around the neck of King Lud's statue , and let my- * t'lf down.

"Now that the Danish West India- rill become an insular possession of he United States upon the completion if the diplomatic negotiations for then tcquisition , and the eastern shore line if this country practically extended iver 1.-100 miles into the broad expanse if the tempestuous Atlantic , it will ) rove of interest to show the postal pos- libilities of this country as to the car- 'iage of a letter weighing an ounce for t cents , " said a gentleman familial K'ith postal affairs. "I venture to say that even an off- laud statement 'of these remarkable ) ossibiliitus cannot really be given , tfaving occasion to go into this question ecently. 1 made a new calculation , ivhich is approximately correct. It is iased upon the island of St. Thomas , n the Danish West Indies , as an east- irn starting point. Upon the completion > f the negotiations American postof- ices will be established on the islands. IVe will proceed to the recently estau- islit'd postofiice at Point Barrow , Uaska , well within the arctic circle , on parallel far above the northernmost mores of Iceland , and not so very far listant from the north pole itself.
