If this story did not come from Nova otia, we would have difficulty in believing i1: A Newfoundland dog belonging to a gentleman in Halifax was in the habit of go - ii g every morning with a penny to a certain b tcher's shop and purchasing his own b eakfast. On one occasion, finding this Market closed, he walked into another, here he deposited his penny on the block d licked his chops, the dog's usual man- ner of asking for breakfast. The butcher, hpwever, instead of serving his would-be castomer, took the coin and drove the poorl fellow from his shop. The next morning,on receiving his usual allowance, the dog went directly to the shop frbm which he had been diaven the previous day, laid his penny upon the block, and with a growl, as if to s y, "Don't you dare play any more tricks o me!" placed /his paw upon it. The b I tcher, not caring to risk, under such eir- c mstances, the perpetration of another fr ud, gave him a piece of meat, which the d g quickly bolted, and, seizing the coin, started for the shop of the more honest ll, t desman with whom he usually dealt. ere he purchased a second breakfast,- and thus made up for his loss of the previous daar- r 1 . , 1 Glrl and Engine. The folloWing is a girl's description of how ai engine is made. It is certainly .very geaphic, and might clo as an account of a ralway- wreck: " You pour a lot of sand into a box, and throw a lot of old stoves and things into a 'fire, and empty the molten stream into a hOle in the sand, and the men all yell, and ite awfully dirty and sm.oley. Andthen you pour it out and let it cool and pound it; 4 then you put it in a thing that goes d, and try to break it; then you screw o a thing that goes back and forth, that u.can ride on, and that scrapes it and it eaks_ ; then you put it in -a thing that s it round, and you take a. chisel and eut it ; then you put it in a thing that bores ho es in it. Then you screw it together and pant it, and put steam in it, and it goes fully; and they take it up in the draft- -room and.. draw a picture of it, and make of wood just like it. And oh! I forgot hey have to make a boiler. One man s inside and one gets outside, and they Ind just terribly; and then they tie it to . other thing—and oh ! you just ought to it go." ro it yo sq tu THE M.A.AKETS. aseacaru, Febrtutry 22, i004.

Those who profess. to know say it is wonderful how quickly professional tramps communidate the fact that one house is easy to work and that another is guarded by a dog with a keen appetite for tramps, all over America, so that none of the craft may make a mistake and go to the wrong house. It is just as wonderful how soon people learn where they can get the beat value for their money in Clothing, and. how far the knowledge spreads. Recently we had an order for Custom-made Clothing from the STATE OF WASHING- rON, on the Pacific Coast. The gentleman who sent the order was visiting here a year ago, and ordered a Suit from us.
