t l l l a that, for the wedding of the daughter Dog Tailors in Paris. l In Paris the most fashionable of the “ dog tailors " has a store in the Palais Royal, where he keeps an immense stock of apparel for dogs only. There are on the shelves overcoats for summer and winter, rain coats and dusters, traveling coats, fur coats, suits for “ at homes " and with pockets to admit of handker- chiefs and railroad tickets, for such must be purchased in France ii the dog is taken along in the car. The great novelty of this season is underwear and linen for dogs. Shirts are made of batiste for healthy dogs, and of sot-ah silk or wool for dogs suffering from nervous diseases or subject to colds; these shirts are embroidered with the monogram of the dog and that of the owner. The handkerchief, which is not so much used for the nose as to wipe the eyes of the canine, bears the name of the dog embroidered in one corner. After many unsuccessful at- tempts, it has at last been possible to make shoes for dogs, which are made of soft rubber and fit the feet of the dog as a glove would a lady's hand. It appears that the stores where the fash- ionable necessaries for dogs are sold do an excellent business. These articles are naturally purchased by wealthy peeple only, and they don't care how much they spend upon their pets. One of these “ Tailleurs pour chiens ” stated Why Bother of a foreign diplomat, special suits were made for the dogs, to imitate the livery of the respective embassadors’ servants; a wealthy banker, whose daughter mar- ried recently, had dessed up the two pet dogs of the family in white silk, and during the civil ceremonythese dogs were drawn up in line with the bridesmaids.â€"â€"Paris Letter. Tall Stories About Giants. There are no books in the world that are equal to the two Talmuds as far as outlandish stories of fiction and prepos. terous superstition and tradition are Concerned. According to the Talmudic writers, the early giants, those which lived before the flood, and which were giants indeed, as compared with' the so-called colossal specimens of the human family which lived just before the deluge, were the children of angels and the daughters of men, concerning whom there is an account given in Genesis. 03.: was the hero of the Talmudic romancers. They say that he was over six miles in height, and that he “ drank water from the clouds and toasted fish by holding them near the blazing rays of the sun.” Og was a contemporary of Noah, and often visited the old gentleman while the latter was engaged in the famous ark building experiment. Finally the giant incurred Noah’s dis- pleasure, and the upshot of the whole :affair was that when the ark slipped her moorings after the flood had been racing for several days, the man of great stature was flatly refused a berth. After the flood was over and the waters had subsided Noah is said to have been greatly chagrined by meeting 0g, who was quietly strolling about as though 11 ithinu had happened. He had actu- ally survived the deluge (so the Rabbis say) by wading the water, which only came to his armpitsâ€"St. Louis Re- public. Cutter and 0.. Benefits of Cycling. R'I'P‘A'N'S The bicycle, which is made respon- sible tor all kinds of things, good, bad and in-lifl‘erent, is now charged with having enslaved. at a low calculation, 500 000 males who were formerly ad- dicted to the smoking habit, and who have now abandoned it because it is difficult to ride and smoke at the some time. There is, of course, a corres- ponding loss to the tobacco trade. The journal argues that if these 500,000 lllfllt'S of the bike craze have weaned themselves from smoking only tWo cigars less a dayâ€"and this is a mod- trate consumptionâ€"then the consump- ti-m of cigars is decreasing at the rate nl‘7tlll,0l|0.000 in a year. These figures may be exaggerated. but there is never tireless a perceptible decrease in tobacco Consumption. and it is no discredit tn the whorl that in that direction it is t-xtcntlruginu economy. It has also as- sistrd the Cause of temperance by dim- inishing the consumpti \n ofiutoxicants.
