TIE sIIoE-BLACK AND HIS DOG.

TIE SIIOE-BLACk AND HIS DOG.
y shoe.black, who used to take his stand before
the hotel aIeurce. at Paris, possessed large black
poodle, which had the extraordinary talent OF pro-
curing custom for his master. This animal would
dip his large woody paw into the kennel, and put it
upon every foot that came near him. The shoe
black was, Of course, ever ready to offer his stool
and brushes, with IN invitation to the person be-
daubed to take seat and have the filth wiped of
his shoe.
iAs ]uug as the dog saw his master employed, lie
would lie quietly by his side, seeming to know that
Ihe could not clean two pair Of shoes ut time; but
;as soon as he saw him unoccupicd he went on with
his business. The sagacity of this extraordinary
animal became the conversation Of the servants Of
the hotel, and from the kitchen his fame soon
mounted into the drawing room. \ wealthy Emr-
lishman, who happened To be on vsi, at the hotel
was so delighted with the wonderful abilities Of the
poodle, that he offered the shoe. black 10 sun, rs
for him but the master loved his dog, and would
not take the money offered. The gentleman dcub-
led the sam this was too great n tcmp'aton-hc
dropped a tcar oyer his dog, took the m,H"y, and
gave up his faitbful companion. The dog iran'edi-
ately departed for London with his new lnas,cr.
Fourteen days after, wbep tbs poor snoc-black
had passed very melancholy day, not having hal
single shoe to clean, which Of coursc made him
doubly regret the loss Of his dear dog the poor ami
NAL came bounding towards his old master, licking
his face and hands, and howiing forth his JOY The
satisfaction IF the shoe-black cannot be expressed
" My dear fellow workman" said he, (raptprousiy

called To die /. j.
