Many a man can trace his ruin to bis enemies and many another man could doubtless trace the origin of his downfall to his pretended mends. Many a man's success is dae to his 8luck. He plucks nearly everything lere is in sight. Anything that is mighty enough to prevail is mighty enough to set itself up as the truth anyway. Good Reason for Keeping a DOg. A prominent dog fancier and wealthy man of Philadelphia stepped into a grocery the other night and accidentally stumbled over a fat old German, who was sitting in a corner smoking his pipe. Under his chair was the most remarkable specimen of a dog that the gentlemen nad ever seen. It had the appearance of a pug, with rough red hair and a long tail. It was Impossible to resist laughing at the plaicid old man and his nondescript dog. "What kind of a dog is that?" asked the gentleman. t "I don't know," replied the German. "I suppose you use him for hunting?""No." Genius is the ability to get other people to carry out your ideas. It is said that liquor improves with age, but some men don't cmre to wait. Poverty has killed its thousands and wealth its tens of thousand* It costs the average young man a lot of money to trot on the course of true love. The last shall be first—when a woman picks up a novel. "Is he good for anything?" "No." "Then whv do you value him so ?" "Because ne likes me," said the old fellow, still puffing at his pipe.—Philadelphia Press.
