The simplest facts, quite unchal lenged and taken for granted, are often the hardest subjects for in vestigation. “Did you ever ask a sailor or a know-it-all why the dog watch is so called?” queries a writer in the New York Sun who has himself made the experiment. The chances are that the answer will be, “Why, the dogwatch is two short spells from 4 to G and from 6 to 8 o'clock in the evening to break the regular four hour watches, so that the same men will not have to stand watch during the same hours every day.” Simple and lucid. But why “dog?” In a hunt after an expla nation the first question was put to the officers’ mess of a big battle ship. Not one, from the executive officer of a quarter of a century's service to the ensign with his first stripe, could answer. A boat’s crew from the same ship failed to throw any light on the subject, although a gunner’s mate allowed that “it might be they once had dogs on ship and they was let loose when this watch was on.” An officer of an Atlantic liner said he never had heard so silly a question. “Why, the dogwatch is the dog watch,” he explained. “There’s no why or wherefore about it. It’s always been the dogwatch, and it always will be.” * Having had the matter so airily disposed of by this officer, inquiry was pushed to the East river, where may he found men who have been going down to the sea in real ships for many years. The pursuit of the “dog” was useless. “Say,” said a Harlem boatman, “what’s the matter with trying ‘Fighting Boh?’ If he can’t tell you the great American navy will lose caste.” So up to Rear Admiral Evans went the query. And from Fort Monroe came the answer: U. S. S. Connecticut. Sept. 2. Dear Sir—l am unable to give you the information you ask about the dogwatch. Of course we all know why the watch 1b made two hours, but no one seems to know why the name dog was applied. Yours very truly, R. D. EVANS. At last a public library was re sorted to. The dictionaries were merely provoking. “Five Thou sand Facts and Fancies” was the only book found that threw light on the matter. Its explanation reads: “Dogwatch, a corruption of dodge watch. The dogwatches were intro duced to prevent the same men from always keeping watch the same hours of the day; hence on these oc casions the sailors are said to dodge the routine, or to be doing dodge watch.” It may be added that Murray’s great English dictionary gives a quotation introducing the term dog watch from a book published in 1700, but gives no theory of the origin of the term. Now She Feels Safer. A certain Bronx housewife has been terribly worried of late. She has been in the midst of a palm reading fest, and all her palmist friends have told her f>f dire things that are going to happen to her in the future. She finally got a book on the subject and began to study it carefully. She was really unhap py about the situation until the other day. Now she declares every thing is all right. ‘'You see, 1 employed a new 7 cook,” she said, “and there’s a lot about cooking she didn’t know. I looked into her palm and fourj her head line beautifully developed. When I discovered her- cooking tur nips with the jackets on I knew there was nothing in palmistry or she would have had no head line at ” —New York t^lobe.

Remember the name—Doan’s —and take no other Tom Lawson’s Mistake. “For one, I aint never been able for to understand Tom,” said Mr. Billy Sanders. “He done a mighty good day’s work when he shuck up the insuraee companies an’ caused ’em to be touseled by the minions of the law; but what did he expect the people to do except setback an' tiujoy the whole show? What could they ’a’ done? How could they ’a’ backed Tom any more than they did? The people can’t organize a mob an’ eorreet tilings except in certain specified cases; they’ve got to get things done iu the regular way, an' sometimes that’s harder! to do than to git a bunch ofehawin gum out’n a slot machine.

A big majority of ’em was for free silver, but when it come to a show down they blushed like the play actors does, an’ give me an’ Billy the back of the’r hand.
