to visit his parents, and thinking
to please his old mother-whu
likes dogs, as every woman ought
he decided to take mig" along
and leave him with her. He did
SO, the dog making the entire trip,
under mild canine protest, in the
baggage car. About three weeks
ago Mr.. Lowndes returned to his
duties as clerk in the First Nation
al bank here, after bidding mig"
goodbye and wishing him luck in
his new home. Last Sunday
morning, as he stepped ont of his
door, Mig net him on the
threshold with as plain a good
morning" as dog ever said. He
was thin and footsore; but the
vigorous wag of his tail plainly
expressed his pleasure at seeing
his master once more. While the
old folks haven't been heard from
yet so that the exact time of his
disappearance may be known, yet
a letter from Mrs. Lowndes under
date of November Goth notes the
the fact that the dog was there at
that time. Sutton is between 600
and 700 miles from Douglas.
How Mig knew his way back
home after making the trip in a
baggage car, is another ole of
those things no Teller can find

about going. but his wife insisted
and, of course that settled it.
Along about the middle of the
evening my friend called his wife
to his side and said; Say, some
thing awful is happening. My
pants have bursted right in the
back breadth"
"Well," she says, you back out
into the hall and then slip into
one of the dressing rooms and I'll
get a needle and thread an sew
them up"
So he backed out and down the
hall aud slipped into a little room.
and she found the needle and
thread and came in and tried to
sew their On him. but she couldn''
do it, so she made him take then
off. And he was standing arount
Waiting for her TO get through
when a lot of girls came down tn
hall and tried to get into the room
where they were. She saw anoth
