Yet it is said that they have outlived their original neces- sity. and that their continuance is be reduced. Still, enough were left to carry on the work and traditions assas- ciated with them. In respect of these, they have often exhibited a sagacity and perseverance little short of human. Tireless and faithful. neither blinding snows nor thick enveloping mists have As was perhaps to be expected, the St. Bernard pack was hard bit during the war; and, confronted by a serious. shortage of food, their number had to credit, his body was stuffed and for- warded to the museum at Berne. In memory of his exploits, the biggest and strongth specimen in the pack is al- ways given this name. The most fagnous member of the Hospice kennels was one called “Barry". When he died after long service and with numerous gallant rescues to his Like their masters, the St. bemard dogs suffer severely from the rigorous climatic conditions to which they are exposed. They develoo rheumatism and heart trouble, and seldom live more than six or seven years. brandy. They carry some more useful, viz., blankets. The training of the St. Bernard dogs in their rescue-work is a systematic business, and begms when they are mere puppies. The first step in the pro- cess is to send out a young memter of the pack leashed to a more experienred one. This prevents it getting lost among the passes. After a time. it is taken some miles from the Hospice, turned loose, and left to make its own way home. It soon discovers this, and can then be allowed out by itself and without fear of mishap. Before long. a young dog deve10ps a very keen sense of direction, and will pick up the track in the heaviest snow and mist. He is them employed as a guide when the monks set ofl to bring food and fuel from Bourg St. Pierre and Orsiers. During such periods as they are used to search for and assist storm-bound travelers attempting to reach the Hos- pice, the dogs are despatched in couples. The object of this is to permit one of them to remain at the spot where the wanderer is found, while his com- panion hurries back and brings the rescue party. There are many well-es- tablished accounts of the intelligence ,and courage arid devotion they exhibit in this work. By the way, there is a p0pular delu- sion about the St. Bernard dogs that should be dispelled, if only to prevent disappointment among American tour- ists visiting the Hospice. This is that they carry a small keg of brandy slung round their necks, with which to refresh such travelers as they may meet. In fact, there is a poem on the subject. It is unauthorized. The dogs do not carry The average strength of the pack maintained in the Hospice kennels is fifteen at a time. They are all remark- able good specimens, as big as yOung Icalves, and strong enough to carry a helpless man through the snow. Some of them measure nearly six feet from muzzle to tail, ard weigh anything up ‘to 150 lbs. Their usual co'oring is a. mixture of red and white. but some of fierce quarrels among themsels es (chiefly over the distribution of bones and choice morsels at meal times) are apt to occur. But the dogs have not been alone in little outbreaks of ill- temper; and it is recorded that “in the good old days” it was the custom "to keep the .pack in the refectory, to pre- vent fights among the guests.” them are tawny or brindled. Except when engaged in their rescue work, they are not always renowned for good temper or gentleness of disposition: and nospwe, and was presented with a puppy as a souvenir.
