a DOG SToRY.-About the biggest pile OF
knowledge we ever heard of possessed by q
dog, was told us by his owner, who was a
great politician. He said that dog always
knew when. there was to be an election is
well as he did, and always went to the polls
and stood around and listened to what was
said. At one election the votes were going to
run very close the dog had heard the matter
discussed and he seemed, more than usually
excited. On the day of election he started
and made believe he was mad, and bit every
voter OF the opposite ticket that he could find
and scared the rest So that they did not care
to go to the polls, and the result was the par
ty he worked for carried the election by a big
majority. We never should have believed
that, had we not heard it directly from the
owner of the dog, and it illustrates the intel-
ligence and reason OF the dog better than any
anecdOte we ever heard.
One more word and we are done. It is per-
haps no more than common justice to the
reader that we should state that we after
wards learned that the man who told rs the
story--!lied, and that he. never owned do
in his life. Stlll, If it had been true, it would
have been beautiful illustration of canine
intelligence Journal.
