One of the moat eloquent tributes ever paid to the dog waa delivered by Senator Vest, of Missouri, some years ago, and although it has been published several times since, we are reprinting it once more, in response to many re quests. The distinguished Senator was attending court in a country town, and while waiting for the trial of a case in which he was interested, was urged by the attorneys in a dog case to help them. Voluminous evidence was intro duced to show that the defendant had shot the dog in malice, while other evi dence went to show that the dog had attacked defendant. Vest took no part in the trial, and was not disposed to spiak. The attorneys, however, urged him to speak. Being thus urged he arose and said: “Gentlemen of the jury: The best friend a man has in the world may turn against him and become his enemy. His son or daughter that he has reared with loving care may prove ungrateful. Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our hap piness and our good name, may become traitors to their faith. The money that a man has he may lose. It flies away from him, perhaps when he needs it most. A man’s reputation may be sac rificed in a moment of ill-considered ac tion. The people who are prone to fall on their knees to do us honor when suc cess is with us, may be the first to throw the atone of malice when failure settles its cloud upon our headB. The one absolutely unselfish friend a man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proveB ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog. A man’s dog standB by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness. He wilt sleep on the cold ground, when the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his master's side. He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer; he will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounters with the roughness of the world. He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince. When all other friends desert, he remains. When riches take wings and reputation falls to pieces he is as constant in his love as the sun in its journeys through the heavertB. If fortune drives the maBter forth an out cast in the world, friendless and home less, the faithful dog asks no higher privilege than that of accompanying him, to guard against danger, to fight against his enemies, and when the last scene of all comes, and death takes the master in its embrace, and his body is laid away in the cold ground, no matter if all other friends pursue their way, there by the graveside will the noble dog be found, his head between his paws, his eyes sad, but open in alert watchfulness, faithful and true even unto death. ” Then Vest sat down. He had spoken in a low voice, without ,a gesture. He made no reference to the evidence or the merits of the case. When he fin ished judge and jury were wiping their eyes. The jury filed out, hut soon re turned with a verdict of $500 for the plaintiff, whose dog was shot; and it was said that some of the jurors wauled to hang the defendant. The little boy was evidently a firm believer in the old adage, “Of two evils, choose the least.” Turning a corner at full speed, he collided with the minis ter. “Where are you running to, my little man?” asked the minister, when he had regained his breath. “Home!” panted the boy. “Ma’s go ing to spank me. ” “What!” gasped the astonished min ister. “Are you eager to have your mother spank you that you run home so fast?” "No,” shouted the boy over his shoul der, as he resumed his homeward flight, “hut if I don’t get there before pa, he’ll do it!” Usually when a man falls in love he getB bumped.

It is of greater importance to keep native Southerners at home than to at tract immigration, according to Presi dent Harrison of the Southern railway. Speaking before the Chamber of Com merce at Selma, Ala., recently he said in part: “I would like to impress upon the Southern people my conviction that keeping our own people at home is even more important to our progress than attracting settlors from other localities. I am sure (hat 1 speak for you when I say that we will welcome the desirable immigrant frtim any other part of our own country or from Europe, that we will make him one of us, that we will undertake to teach him our language and imbue him with our aspirations, but it is fair to add that we can best insure the preservation of the ideuls and traditions of the South and the ad vancement of our prosperity if, in ad dition to welcoming the stranger, wo keep our own people at home. This is a matter that is having the attention of the Southern Railway Co. Through out- land and industrial departments and all of our agencies working for Southern development, we are seeking to impress upon the people along our lines the su periority of our own section, and, so far as we are able to do so, we endeav or to persuade individuals contemplat ing removing to other parts of the country to remain in the South.” A glance at the figures will show that this is a matter of greater importance than might be supposed. There are 31,- 954,325 natives of the South in tho Uni ted States, and only 29,695,474 of these reside in the sixteen Southern States. There are 2,256,851 natives of the South residing outside of the South and only 1,722,514 natives of other sections re siding in the South. Thus the balance in interstate immigration against the South amounts to no less than 526,337. In this connection President Harrison says further— "Great as has been the progress of the South, we have only fairly begun to realize our opportunities for agricul tural arid industrial development. The rapid progress being made by Southern farmers in the adoption of improved farming methods will greatly increase our steadily growing agricultural out put. The economic law tending to the location of manufacturing enterprises in proximity to supplies of raw mate rial and to power resources, and the advantages of home markets based on a prosperous and increasing agricultu ral population, will stimulate the devel opment of diversified manufacturing in all of the Southern States.” There haB been organized in Brussels a league for obtaining a Saturday half- holiday in Belgium, as now practiced in England. “Be a Man Like Father.” In the Woman’s Home Companion Mary Heaton Vorse, writing a story entitled “Ilis Manly Dignity,” com ments as follows on the practice of urging small boys “to be a man like father:” “Prom earliest infancy they implore their boy children to 'be a ma„.’ That glorious goal is pointed out to a boy baby from the moment he can under stand anything. Ho is not only told to ‘be a man,’ but to ‘be a man like fath er.’ I often wonder how the fathers bear it; I often wonder how they can stand there, apparently so smug and contented, when this ideal of conduct is suggested to their innocent babies. Don’t they really see themselves, I wonder? Aren’t there some of them who have a sudden, beneficent im pulse to exterminate their own Bona if the feat of growing to bo a man like father is all that awaits the innocent youngsters before them? How can they hear the adoring gaze that their little sons faBten upon them? “Some little boys have a trick of looking so’ much like real men, with all the qualities that we love to think of as belonging to the moHt manly of men, that I have seen them stamping down the street, still in skirts; and a man in the fullness of his powers couldn’t havo better exemplified the finer masculine traits. “No one tells little girls to hurry up and ‘be a woman like mother.’ ’’ MUST BELIEVE IT When Well-Known Newnan People Tell It So Plainly.
