one of the most intelligent dogs here.
He has recently become acquainted with
neighbours cat. One day last week he
saw this kitten had strayed from home
TO the center of the village. 1t was
about in front Of Dea Burnham's store.
After watching the kitten for a brief
time, the dog picked it up in his mouth
and so held it until he had carried il
safely back to its own dooryard. He
then deposited it for the owner to still
further correct. How many dogs are
like that in knowledge?
