A TOOTHBRUSH FOR KOKO.

Coat! Toilet Artlclea Purehaaed by Klch

orte For Ihelr Pet IHga. A score or more of dainty toilet articles, gold mounted and jeweled, were scattered over the glass counter, and the obliging clerk in the fashionable shop was vainly endeavoring to satisfy the whims of a daughter of wealth, who had every appearance of having been spoiled by overindulgence. She had a costly toothbrush in her hand and: was poking the other articles with it in a dissatisfied way. "This is not small enough," she said, "and the hair is not fine enough. " "It is our very best grade of goods," j anggested the clerk half apologetically. ' "Then you onght to get something better. Yes. really, you ought," exclaimed the willful customer. "I can't take such a clumsy toothbrush as that home to my Koko. " "Ah'" mnrmnred the clerk, with a

scarcely perceptible air of impatience. "Thenyou want a toothbrush for your dog " "Yes, of course I do, and I want something very soft and very dainty," replied the youug woman. And, after a pause, she added, with an affectionate purr, "There isn't anything too nice for my Koko." "Certainly not," reepouded theclerk, with a cordial smile. "Here are some

brushes of rare quality. I had overlooked them. Here is one with hair as soft as silk and a handle of solid gold. " The girl fondled the expensive trinket for a moment, and, without asking the price, said, "That will do. Have it sent with the other things, please." When this spoiled maiden's father gets a bill from the fashionable jeweler, he will doubtless be moved to emotion by the entry, "One toothbrush for dog. $22. oO. " It is no uncommon thing for shopkeepers in New York to be called upon

to supply toilet articles for dogs, monkeys, birds and other domestic pets. Some stores maintain special lines of combs and brushes for pet dags, and us

a special concession to the

of the fair owners of these

prices of dog combs and brushes are kept aristocratically high. New York Times.

The Blaekmard of Mai

Besides my man Mohammed there were several other Arab passengers aboard, and the appearance of these, as they leaned over the bulwurks of the steamer, wus the signal for a shout of derisive laughter, curses and stone throwing on the part of the crowd of ill fed und ill conditioned hoys who thronged the quay. For downright blackguardism nothing can beat the type of the youth of Malaga, whose expression, like their morals, is of as debased a type as could well be imagined. Howls of filthy language greeted the appearance of the Moors, who, had they disem

barked, would have run a great risk of bring torn to pieces, so great is the antipathy of the Spaniards to their former conquerors. The captain of the steamer appealed to the police, but the two representatives of this noble body were hnsilv rmnloved in stealing fias from

the cargo and paid little or no attention to the fact that an infuriated crowd of the worst characters of Malaga that is to say. the worst in the world were pelting the steamer with stones and mud. Affairs, however, reached a climax when one of the Moors, who spoke Spanish, asked after the health of Oen-err-' Margallo, the general who had been killed before Melilla, and then the cap-

! tain was obliged to order them below, though the ill conditioned crowd hooted and jeered until at sunset the steamer i left. Harris' "From Batum to Bag

NOT THE WAY IT WAS.

Thinge Had Not Chanced at All Sine He Wae Voting. Three young men were sitting together m '.he rotunda of one of the big hoti Is. They were dist uasing the prog

ress of invention. "It's strange, " said one, "how completely old ways of doing things have been superseded. Yoo muy talk about its being hard to introduce inventions, but if a scheme is auy good it'll be uni

versally adopted nowadays in no time. , Why, you'll find even middle aged men who remember when everything in use The Indianapolis

was different. There a liaruly a tniug now that's doue the same way or by the same appliances as it was when they were young. Why, my uncle can remember the time when every kiud of goods was made by haud, and he isu't very old either. It's laughable to hear him tell how they uaed to get along. Everything, it seems, was done about the slowest and hardest way on earth. People used to think that they were in the world to work, and it didu't make i much difference what they were at. I tell you, boys, you don't appreciate what it is to live in these days."

i At this juncture a man with entirely

gray hair folded his paper preparatory to departing and looked at the crowd near him. One of them, observing him, ventured to usk what he thought about it "Prettv nearlv rieht, I guess, " he

said.

"Now, I suppose," began another,

Million of frog Rain Doat. One of the most curious phenomena of nature is the precipitation of froths,

fish, crabs, angleworms, etc, with J rain from the clouds. The story is told Bl the annals of the French academy j and may be found in the August number, 1804. The narrative is by one Pro-

ISBBSB Poutus. In it he gives an account of an instance of millions of frogs whioh fell in a shower near Toulouse. He states that he himaelf saw numerous ! youug frogs on the coats of two gentlemen who were out in the shower. Pro

fessor Pontus saya that be "forthwith repaired to the spot whore the storm had hurst and found the roads and fields literally alive with young frogs and tadpoles." "In atime places," says ;tbe professor, "they were three or four deep all over the ground, and the hoofs of the horses and the carriage wheels killed thousands of them. "

Getting Married. In "His Quest of the Golden (4irl" Richard Le Qallit ne, in one of his opeuing chapters says: "Undoubtedly the nicest way to get married is SB the nly, und indeed it ia at present becoming quitt fashionable. Many young couples of niy acquaintance, who hove had no other reason for conrealinff the fuct beyond their own

whim, have thus slipped off without saying a word to anybody and returned full blown housekeepers, with at home days of their own and everything tJSB like real married people for, as the

old lady said to me, 'You cau never be sure of married people nowadays unless you have been at the weddiug. ' " The author then further philosophizes as follows: "I don't know mynclf what getting mnrrnd feels like, but it cannot be murh more exciting than watching

other people getting murrif d. Indeed, I always get something like palpitation of the heart junt before the prieot utters the final fat ful words, I declare you man and wife.' Half a second before you were still free. Half a second after you were bound for the term of your natural life. Half a second before you had only to dash the book from the

priest's hands and put your hands over his mouth, and though thus giddily swinging on to the brink of the precipice you are oavetl. Half a second after "All the kinit' borne and nil the king's men Cannot make you a lawhelor strain. "It is the knife edge moment betwixt

time aud eternity.'
