Proper Treatment for the Dog, 
npHERE are other requirements than 
severity for the proper training of 
dogs. In a sense we have certain obliga¬ 
tions toward him and to fittingly discharge 
them we need three essentials: justice, 
sympathy and common sense. 
Play fair with your dog. Don’t forever 
require him to adjust himself to you. Oc¬ 
casionally see how it seems to adjust your¬ 
self to him. Study his characteristics, ra¬ 
cial and personal. If he is a St. Bernard, 
don’t treat him like a Poodle; if an Irish 
setter, don’t try to make a Great Dane or 
a Collie out of him. Learn the leanings of 
his race, and his own preferences,—for he 
has preferences. Allow him their luxury. 
If he loathes carrots, for instance, and 
loves cabbage, make the dicker with him, 
and then don’t feed him cabbage ad nau- 
seum. If he should later turn to carrots, 
respect his palate. Perhaps he rejects 
something essentially needful: mix it art¬ 
fully with something he won’t reject, — you 
yourself like your quinine in capsules or 
your pills sugar coated. 
If you can, get your dog young,—the 
younger the better, — that you may train 
him up in the way he should go; and be 
sure you know that way yourself. Nothing 
is more imitative than a puppy. If you 
want him intelligent, show intelligence 
yourself. Nor can you expect him to be 
kind, affectionate, courageous, well bred, 
unless you set the example. Remember, 
to the depths of dogs’ honest, loyal hearts, 
they are anxious to please; you must show 
them how. Cleanliness, for instance, is the 
first lesson. Don’t go about it spasmodical¬ 
ly. Watchfulness, in order to rebuke at 
the proper moment is necessary. A smart 
little slap on the body, — never on the head, 
— as you “scoot” the culprit out the door, 
teaches in no time that always, under such 
circumstances, his place is outdoors. A 
puppy reasons like an infant, — no more, 
and equally, no less. 
And in this matter of cleanliness, don’t 
put it all on the dog: do your part. See 
that there is always an abundance of clean 
drinking water in a clean dish. If you feed 
him scraps, let them be clean scraps,—no 
tainted meat, no withered, half-decayed 
vegetables, in any unclean old dish, or 
tossed down carelessly in any old place. 
What kind of a gentleman of his breed 
would you expect to rear that way? This 
is a hard and fast axiom: Treat a dog as 
a dog, and he will always be a dog: treat 
him as one gentleman treats another, and 
he will be a gentleman. Perhaps you are 
feminine: even so, be a “gentleman,” just 
the same. 
Reprimand him at the proper time; 
praise him at the psychological moment. 
Above all, don’t yourself, nor allow others, 
to tease him just for fun. It will not be so 
funny when his temper is ruined like over¬ 
hammered steel. Don’t break that temper. 
Nobody wants a sullen, surly dog, nor that 
sadder thing still, a frightened, cringing 
one. He will be glad to recognize you as 
master just when you have demonstrated 
Pride in the

is the common sentiment of the 
man who sells it, the man who 
buys it, and the typist who 
operates it. 
Remington Salesman, Rem¬ 
ington Owner, and Remington 
Operator all share in this pride’ 
which comes naturally from 
association and identification
