Some dog deal probably originated the sayin» since many owpers of petted canines waondd not part with their possessions for much more than the cost, al- though that cost may have been hum- dreds, even thousands of dollars. of former genera- er Men and women tions loved dogs, no doubt, as well as do those of today, but they have heen astounded at the prices now paid for animals of high degree and aristocratic lineage. A bulldog valued at £5,000, a Bernard = costing $6,000, a collie which $3,500 is held to be a reason- would St, for able figure--sugh prices no longer ex- cite surprise. In fact, they held as bargains in some they would fathers. The constantly increasing favor which pet and high-class dogs have found with women, of recent vears, has had much to do with soaring prices.

Paris, May 28.--The inquiry which Hughes Leroux conducted in a morn: ing paper as to whether there exists , crisis in love affairs at the present time has just been "brought to a close, As was to be expected, nothing very conelusive has been the cuteome. Still, some very interesting deductions can be drawn from numerous, letiers pub- lished. The main point is that the present tendency of girls to leave home and work for a living, often in shops and offices conjointly with men, does not favor the birth or growth of love, Too great' familiarity between the sexes robs their relations of that glam- our of mystery which conduces to amorous inclinations. Girl typewrit ers who marry rarely select one of the clerks working in the same office. Another conclusion is that whey both husband and wife have an occu pation or profession marital happiness suffers. Women generally complain that the role which men wish them to fill as housekeeper is too often such ng to deprive them of all individual ity. Men complain that girls nowa- days demand greater comforts and luxuries than men in their own sta- tion of 'life can afford to provide them with. This is explaind® by the fact that girls, especially in Paris, become re fined and capable of rising in the sb- cial scale much more quickly than men and. sooner than marry below their ideal of refinement they prefer to re- main free and work for ther living. Men were also bitterly reproached for egotism in love matters, "Sweet Castor Oil," for children, 10¢.. Gibson's Red Cross drug store.

It is not that the £5,000 bulldog or th $6,000 St. Bernard represent so much worth from a commercial point of view--their beauty may appear to some in inverse proportion. Not long ago in London a coup le of setters of the finest blood were sold for 85.25, and. a pack of pure breed harriers for a similar amount. i harriers and setters had been the fad in canine possessions or pets for the time they would have been eagerly sought for at a hundred times that figure, Londoners. will pay $300 for animals of certain breeds that twenty a drug in the market pest of the world wall sums of money », years ago were at $50, and the likewise.
