Elegy on the Death of a Mad Dog Good people all, of every sort, Give ear unto my song; And 1f you find it wondrous short, It cannot hold you long. In Islington there was a man, Of whom the world might ‘say, That still a godly race he ran, When’er he went to pray. A kind and gentle heart he had, Yo comfort friends and foes; The naked every day he clad, When he put on his clothes. And in that town a dog was found, As many dogs there be, Both mongrel, puppy, ‘whelp and hound, And curs ‘of low degree. This dog and man at first were friends, But when a pique began, The dog, to gain some private ends, Went mad and bit the man. Around from all the neighboring streets The wondering neighbors ran, And swore the dog had lost his wits, To bite so good a man. The wound, it seemed, both sore and - sad To every Christian eye; And while they swore the dog was mad, They swore the man would die. But soon a wonder came to light, That showed the rogues they lied; The man recovered of the bite, The dog it was that died. —Oliver Goldsmith, Of all heavy bodie the woman we have ¢ Lemontey. the heaviest is ed to love.— Coquettes are the quacks of love— La Rochefoucauld.

HE 1912 Haynes car, product of America’s oldest and most experienced automobile manufacturers, is bigger in every way, more powerful and more pleasing in its lines than any of its splendid predecessors. ‘The time-tested, sweet-running Haynes motor has been built with greater stroke and bore, giving more power, greater flexibility and decreased vibration. The wheel base has been lengthened. The brakes are larger, providing 1 square inch braking surface to every 13 Ibs. of car. And with these improvements there are many refinements in style, such as the rich black body and running gear, with black enamel and nickel trimmings throughout. ‘The 1912 Haynes is now ready for delivery.

This feeling, if it produce only emu- lation, is right; y, it is wrong. For a high degree of intellectual re- finement in the female is the surest pledge society can have for the im- provement: of the male. But wit in women is a jewel, which, unlike all others, borrows lustre from its setting rather than bestows it, since nothing BI covered that as she grew old the men could not find out that wit in her at fifty which she possessed at twenty- and yet the external attractions of this lady were by no means equal to those of her mind.—Lacon, Discretion is more necessary to women than eloquence, because’ they have less trouble to speak well than to speak little —Father Du Bose. comicbooks.com
