A Knowing Dog.

Sir Walter Scott tells of one Of his
dogs that one day furiously attacked
the baker and was with great difficulty
called off. But as the dog observed the
baker coming every day to leave bread
for the family lie began to regard him
in more favorable light, and in time
the dog and the baker became great
friends. One day Sir Walter was tell
ing somebody how the dog had attack
ed the baker, and as soon as he began
the story the dog skulked into the cor
ner of the room, turned his face to the
wall. hung down his ears and lowered
his tail and displayed every sign Of be-
ing heartily ashamed Of himself. But

FOR THE CHILDREN
Proud of His Badge.

The passengers on ;ln outbound uar-
ward square car in Boston recently saw
the beginning of a career, says The
American BOY.
A little boy sat in one corner. his
face fine with the expression of an oc-
cupied and happy mind. He was tidy
and we'll behaved. but had the habit Of
busy little boys of squirming his legs
together sitting in an unstable posi-
ton.

ed him on the knee; but he turned Il
pocket wrong side out and shook forth
his nickel. From time to time he grin
ned as he sat watching something hid
den beside his leg and in his hand,
then he would shove both hands into
the Sits of his coat front and pulling
them out empty would chuchle quiet
~ to himself, gazing far out the Win
dow past the motorman.
Once lie opened his Overcoat button
by button, then deliberately unfasten-
ed his little coat ard brought out from
away down somewhere in secret
pocket neat, clean envelope which
seemed to bear a newspaper trade
mark. The little boy did not take out
its contents, but. pecking in from time
to time to prompt himself, whispered
it's message. Then he put the paper
back deep down somewhere in an in
ner pocket, carefully buttoned it over,
and from his front pocket slipped out
something that gave a CLEAN of bright
nickel. He covered it in his mittens to
all but himself and sat there si..j..-
Cling pleasure right before the GU. Gus
passengers.
At last, after patient watching, we
caught his secret-a uewsboy's badge
new and shiny.

stuck together like two brave fellows
who knew Wien The fight came and
weren't going 10 run away.
In Il few moments the dramatic part
was over, the thermometer had fallen

beating on them. Then they took up
the road again and pushed on. When
they GOT to Lees. The horse whinnied,

Higgins i'll TO the fire. and after drink
or two he was all right. And then,
what With having the cold in his brain
and the memory Of q pretty victory in
HIS healt-for he liked to be a hero
and was glad he was alive-he sat up
and whooped like an Indian. so that
the cayuse out in the stable heard it
and lifted its ears as if his old mas
ters were calling him.
For the bride was Neil; it was Nell
with the china blue eyes and the silly
yellow hair. and kit--who had lovely
eyes Of brown and Il brow like a Ma
donna's, and whom Carrot Jim had
been thinking of all those awful soil
tary nights up on the range-Iit was
asking Higgins how he felt and why
Carrot Jim hadn't come with him.
They didn't want him to go back
that night. They said it was suicidal,
but Higgins had his own ideas. and he
had read of D'Artagnan, so he got into
a squirrel skin coat and kissed the
bride and took a stirrup cup and rode
away. In his breast was an envelope
with Il lock of brown hair. 1t was for
Carrot jim. and Kit had cut it for him
with her own hands.
So the Irishman went out singing
and laughing and swearing at the
northwest, which he gave permission
to do its deadly worst. for he was Il
lover by proxy and had a foretaste Of
days when he should be q lover for
himself.
