THE MASTIFF. 585 To anyone who wishes to rear a true Mastiff, in all his perfection of utility, let me say: Begin by making a friend of your dog; let him accomijany you on your walks abroad; let him come into your house and lie before your fire, and in every way connect himself with you and your welfare. If you shut him out of your house, how in the name of com- mon sense is he to know that he has any part or interest in it? You might almost as well expect watching from one of a litter of black Essex pigs. Don't attempt to conquer"

Powell, Omaha, Neb. him, "break him in," or any of the brutalities common to the vulgar dog-breaker; a Mastiff that can be "conquered " is not the animal you could trust were you engaged in a battle to the death with a vicious burglar or tramp; nor would such an animal be a Bayard in the protection of your wife and children in a lonely farm-house, with you far away. Grave faults, such as killing chickens, etc., must be eradicated, but don't go at it with a club. Remember how you Avould treat your child in such a case, and try to follow the same lines with your dog, of course allowing for the difference in mental capacity. First love your dog,
