Why a Dog's NOHO In Cold.
Everybody is aware that a dog's nose
is always cold , but very few people know
why , declares the St. Louis Globo-Domo1-
crat. The cartilage composing the
outer surlaco of a dog's nose is alino.it
destitute of blood vessels , but plentifully
supplied with glands which exude a
watery secretion that , by Its evapora
tion , keeps the nose below the normal
temperature. The dog's sense of snoll
Is located In the nerves within the nos
trils , and it is probable that these are
kept In bettor condition by the low tem
perature of the cartilaginous tip of the
nose. The state of a dog's health is at
once indicated by his nose , for no dog
witli a hot , dry nose can bo healthy , and
one of the first signs of rabies is dry ness
and Heat or the nosu , for these symp
toms indicate fever , and fever is the be
ginning of hydrophobia.

1'rojf AVIitoh Hi * * Advertisers lie-
( | iiire Usually.
Some of the big mercantile firms that
rely largely upon liberal advertising
for'their patronage , " said u big bill
poster , ' "go to great expense to attract
attention. The cost of advertising with
thorn is not limited to the mere
payment of the newspapers.
painters , bill posters and ethers -
ors who undertake to display
their announcements ; but there are a
number of necessary expenses incidental
to these which are by no means small
items in the total expenditure , says the
Now York Sun. Many employ men to
originate striking forms of advertise
ments , and the demand for mon of
special genius in that direction is so
great that very largo salaries are of
fered thorn. Some of these firms , es
pecially those who deal in patent mod-
ioinos , employ a man whoso solo duty H
is to see that the contracts for display
ing before the public their advertise
ments tire can led out us ngroo'd. This
man has to do a great deal of traveling.
"Ono of the forms of advertising ,
which is extensively indulged in by these
firms , is the painting of signs on the
fences and rocks along the lines of the
railroads which outer this town. In
making a contract with a bill poster ,
who usually does this work , the firm
specifies the style and size of the signs
it wants and the .place . in which it wants
them displayed. . The bill poster then
sends out his men , presumably to fulfil
the terms of the contract ; but these
men travel over hundreds of miles of
territory , and the question arises , how
can the linn bo'certnin that its provis
ions have been uroporly carried out ? It
Is impossible fi > r the members of the
firm to spend time in going over all
those miles personally , and , as a result ,
they have to employ a man who can do
it for them. This man can do little
olso.
olso."If the firm would rest content with
his assurances dils labor would bo com
paratively llghtbutonoof the first prin
ciples of a big mercantile firm scorns to
bo that , so far as possible , the assertions
of an employe dhould bo supported by
material proof. ' It would , of course ,
bo possible for the man who under
takes this work to defraud the firm by
conspiring with the bill poster , and , to
prevent this possible collusion , a novel
form of proof that the work has been
properly done has been dovibcd. The
firm's agent follows in the footsteps of
bill poster's workmen. Ho is provided
with a camera and ho photographs
every ono of the firm signs. As each pho
tograph takes in not only the sign but
the surrounding scenery , the firm Is of
course convinced that the number of
signs contracted for have been duly
made , and also that they are in the
places designated by it. Thoho photo
graphs are kept until the terms of the
contract have expired , and frequently
ono firm will have a collection of thou

Forgotten Ho Had Ajjcd.
"Mon who are approaching old ago

an officer of the Seventh cavalry to a St.

sjlf-dccoption of which ho is guilty gen

buoyancy and vigor of youth are still

blind confidence and its inevitable result
was presented the other evening down

doing duty lately. An olTort to estab

fruit last week in fitting up a nuihcle-

Peculiar Find.
Joseph Paultis has made a discovery
oi a peculiar kind of oil or gas well on
his farm , throe miles northwest of Go-
slion , Ind. Paulus runs a sawmill in ono
corner of his farm and has it located
near the edge of a largo manch. Some
time ago the water supply which fed the
engine boiler gave out. A 40-foot open
well was dug and the customary iron
pipe driven down still further. Subse
quently a good supply of water was ob
tained , and it was fed into the boiler.
The engineer noticed three or four
duys ago that the water acted
strangely in the boiler. Ho said it
spluttered and bubbled. The water
was examined and found to have a pecu
liar odor something like that of arti
ficial water gas. It was heavy and oily.
This peculiarity increased , and the engine -
gino had to shut down. The samples
which have boon submitted Hero show a
substance in mixture with the water of
about the consistency of glycerine. Un
like ordinary oil in mixture , it cannot bo
disconnected or shaken Into globules.
It has a clear color , unlike that of reg
ular petroleum. Paulus is positive ho
has inado a rich strike , and has sent
samples to exports for analysis.

Ho replied , "Yes , ' ' and ono of those

Heroic .Mothers of the Poor.
From ills experience as a physician In the
east of London , Dr. ICdward Uerdoo says In
the Fortnightly liuvlew that the mothers
among the poor , and oven among the paupers
pors , are willing to make any sacrifice for tin
sake of medical attendance upon t'uiir chil
dren. " 1 could not give the fathers , " ho said ,
"by any means so good a character in this re
spect. The beery and self-indulgent paupo *
male imrent is too often careless enouirh ol
his family ; but of the mother I can , on tha
whole , say nothing but good. 1 have very
rarely known a sick child to want for any
thing within her means , even if she had to go
without necessaries for herself. " Ono exam
ple which he gives ot the self-sacrifice of pen-
nilcss mothers is worth quoting in full. "One
Monday morning , " ho says , "in the depth oJ
the late winter , a thin , poorly clad little
woman came through a .snowstorm to nn East
hml workhouse to aslt for food for her chil
drcn. Her husband was lying ill in the iu
Urinary and she had live children to support
by charing and doing odd jobs. The reliev
ing officer at once assisted the family with
food. Ten minutes after the applicant hail
loft the relief olllces I was fetched in hasf
to see the poor woman , who had Just readr * "
homo. She had placed the bread and mea !
on the table and had fallen dead on the bed.
I was surprised to see live chubby , well-fed
children standing by the bed on which lay
their dead mother. The story was a conuuou
ono the oread had all gone to the little ones.
The mother had sacrificed her life to snva
theirs. 'A mother , ' says Coleridge , 'is th <
holiest thing alive , ' and'l should indorse tha
sentiment , even had 1 no oth'cr experience
wherewith to Illustrate it than thai gleaned
from my East London parish work. "
