THE DOG THAT DANCED.
It was Satttrci,x,, and so, of course,
there was no school, All the week the
ice, on the ponds hod been growing
thicker and thicker, to the groat joy
of the,Conway Boys, James and Arthur,
end their friend, George Arooid; for
their fathers hod told there that if the
Ice was strong enottgb by Saturday
they might skate down across Long
Pond and go through the pass to Big
Island Lake.
11 was found that the ice was thick
enough% so about; len o'clock They start-
ed. Their mothers had put up lunch-
eorts for them, and the boys were go-
ing to build a fire on the ice. neer the
shore, to keep warm while they ale,
and perhaps cook some bacon by stick-
ing the slices in the ends of split sticks,
and holding it over the fire.
TO ice was so clear that the boys,
by putting their faces down close to
it could look through it like a pane
ct glass, and see things on (he bol
tom, near the shore, and dead leaves
moving slowly ..along toward the out-
let, Once Qeorge saw a fish—a big pick-
erel, as long as his arm.
13y the tame they reached the toot of
Long Pond it was nearly noon, and
the boys were so hungry that they de-
cided to have their luncheon et once.
They wanted some dry wood to make
the fire, so they all took off their skates
and laid them down on the ice by the
boxes of luncheon. Then they went
back a little way into the wends on the
shore, for the stinks.
Each boy gathered a big armful—so
tag that it stuck way up in the air in
front of him end almost kept him from
seeing where he was going. But they
pushed their way through the bushes
to the ice again, and dropped the wood
13 a pile for their flee.
Just then they heard a crackling in
the bushes. They turned and saw a
big, funny -!coking dog Doming out. He
was shaggy, and a kind of dirty brown
in color; and he had small eyes, very
black, that twinkled, and a sharp nose.
that kept quivering and wrinkling up.
When he saw the boys he stopped
a moment, and put his nose up in the
ale and sniffed. Then he walked slow-
ly out on the ice toward the boy's
luncheon. llis walk was ungainly.
'What a big dog he 1st" said James;
and indeed he wos—bigger than any
the boys had ever seen before.
"And what a funny walk he hese' said
George. Then the other boys noticed
it, too—a kind of roly-poly, waddling
walk, as if he were made of jelly, all
stinky. They had never seen a dog
walk" lilce that before.
The dog did not pay any attention
to the boys, hut kept right on toward
the lunch -boxes they had left on the
ice. Ile did not seem to be cross, and
they went a few .steps toward him, and
sheeted and shook seeks at him. which
they look from the pile 01 wood. Then
he growled, but kept right on toward
the luncheon.
"Throw your stick et him,•' saki
James to Arthur. "Perhaps that will
scare him."
Arthur threw the slick, but as it
whirled through the air, the big dog
suddenly eked up on his hind legs and
caught the stick in one of his paves,
just es a boy will catch a baseball bat
which another boy tosses to him. Then
fie boys were astonishe.i and terrified
1C Pec him begin to dance on his hind
legs, moving in a circle, balancing the
slick, swinging his head up and down,
and malting a funny noise that was
partly growl and partly es if he were
trying to sing when he had a cold.
"It's a bear!' It's a bear!' cr'ed George
and Arthur together; and getting James
by the hand, they all three started to
31113,
Now every boy knows how hard It
is to run on Ice without skates. You
keep slipping and sliding, and you can-
not then quickly al all. Before the boys
could reach the shore, the bear, mov-
ing in o circle, had got between them
and the land, and in trying to turn,
Samos slipped and slid right ahead, to-
ward Lhe bear. hie set up a great cry,
but George and Arthur did not let go
al hlm, although they, too, were very
much frightened.
Then, all at once, there came a great
shouting and crashing in the bushes,
and out popped a little man wltle high
Islets and a red flannel shirt and a
fur cap. His eyes were big and black,
and his hair curly; and In his ears he
bad little rings of gold, He talked very
thud to the bear, old seemed to be
yielding him, but the boys could not
understand nvhat ho said. Ho walled
right ue to the bear and slapped him
twice noose the face with his hand.
The hear whined, and began to dance
al; the. faster. Then the little man toolc
a Lig collar from his pocket and strap-
ped 11 round the bear's neck, and be.

Cure it by Enriohing the Blood
With Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,
There Is only one way by which rheu-
matism can be cured, it must be treat-
ed through the blood, Liniments and
outward' applications may give temper-
ary relief, but they can't possibly cure
the trouble. And while you are experl-
meltting with liniments the trouble Is
every day becoming more firmly root-
ed in the system, and more difficult to
cure. The poisonous cid that causes
rueumafism must be driven out of the
blood, and you can only do this by
making new, rich, red blood through
the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
Mr. Chas. H. Lumley, of Brickfor i,
Ont., is one of the best known fanners
in Lambfon county. About three years
ago, while Mr,4cumley was engaged in
threshing, he became overheated, and
this was followed by a severe chili that
started the rheumatic pains. Mr. Lum-
ley says: "I did not think anything of
it at the time, as I was accustomed to
being exposed to all kinds of weather.
As a result I was unable to go about
next morning. 1 had severe pains in
my arms and lags which 1 treated at
first with the usual Immo remedies. As
these did not help me, and the trouble
was growing worse the family doctor
was sent tar, but he did not have any
better success. He told me I was suf-
fering from a severe attack ol-rheuma-
Wern, and there can be no doubt about
11, as I was confined to my home about
four months before I was fortunately
advised to try Dr. Williams' Pinic Pills.
I sent for a supply, and it was not
long before I found they were heiping.
me, and by the time I had taken a hall
dozen boxes the trouble had entirely
disappeared. In other respeets the pills
also greatly improved my health, and
I never felt better in my life than 1
have since taking them. I therefore
mast cheerfully recommend Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills to other similar suffer-
er's."
Dr, Williams' Pink Pills make cures
of this kind after doctors and common
medicines fall, 'because they actually
make new blood. They don't euro tee
mere symptoms. They go right to the
root of the trouble in the blood. Thal
is why this medicine cures anaemia,
indigestion, neuralgia, palpitation of the
heart, and the headaches and back-
aches brought on by the ailments that
fill the lives of so many women with
misery. Do not take any pills without

MUSIC AND INSANITY.
Some Instruments Useful in Some Cases,
Harmful in Others.
The effects of nnlsic on boll the sate
and insane depend more on the kind of
inebrunlent or instruments employed
than on the variety of the musical pro-
duction, writes a physician in the Mede
eel Journal.
Strings anti horns have a soothing
effect; more stirring effects are obtain-
able from wooden wind instruments;
more enlivening yet from brass; and the
most agitating and thrilling of all from
drums and the upper octuve instru-
ments, such as the piccolo.
A string orchestra when playing lively
dunce music caused same increase in
Pulse and blood pressure and an awak-
ening of attention among the depressed,
and increased motility among the e:<crt-
abla, Such Instruments as strings and
horns, especially playing soft or plain-
tive music, would bo positively harmful
in depressed conditions, but are useful
10 some mania cases, etc.

on Lhe effects of music on breathing that

certain cases. depending on effects de-
sired, as previously described. Pa-
tients should also he allowed freedom
of movement <luring concerts. Pallia-
tive effects at least are nearly always
obtainable.
In matters of onntsement, diversion
and occupation, in disordered mental
slates, it is found necessary to have var-
iety. The same diversion cannot as a
rule be long used with the same pa-
tients.
If physical training is utilized, various
methods are employed; music may be
used to accompany the exercises, and
the music and instruments may bevar-
led. Baseball games interest the entire
heusehoid and cause diverting converse-
licn. The same is true, irk These hospi-
tals, respecting pool and billiard and
howling matches; and tine benefits of
patents' dances have been a matter of
common observation and comment for
years.
Rhythmic exercises, such as btcycle
riding on level ground, are useful in
stales of partial exhaustion and in the
spasmodic neuroses. Golf is frequently
prescribed in many nervous disorders as
a form of exercise, the dosage of which
is easily regulated.
Calisthenic drills to increase the teem
ben are apt to be too exhausting for
mental cases unless sufficient reaction
tine is permitted, or the teacher accom-
pany his commands with a performance
et the same movements himself, thus
permitting imitation, which is. not as
commuted by nearly as much mental
exhaustion as the close and prolonged
fixation of the attention demanded by
following rapid commands only.
Duplicate whist I have found of im•
mense value in many mental cases of
keg standing in which there is not
nm013 dalertornlion. It controls the at-
tention for considerable periods, to the
exclusion of annoying delusions and
hallucinations.
Many hospitals are provided with
pedsgogie schools, the object of which
is the awakening and re-education of
dormant energies by actual participation
to study or discussion. Spelling and
mental arithmetic; geography of coun-
tries and places of special current news-
paper mention; reciting or reading aloud
--all have their value,
