A Faithful Dog.

Many hundred years ago there lived At Athens a dog whose falthfulness has caused him 10 be mentioned In history. and In the Greeian city bis story Is often repeated.
 The dog guarded one of the heathcn temples at Athens. One night thief stole Into this building and carried on some of the most valuable treasures. The dog valnly parked his loudest to frlghten the thief and to rouse tue keepers as the man went or with the Jewels. But the faithful dog did not mean 10 lose sight of the rascal, and all through the night be followed him.
 By daybreak the poor animal had be come very weary. but still he kept tho robber In sight. The latter tried to feed him. and as he made friends with the passersby he took lt from them h. stead. Whenever the thief stopped to rest the dog remained near him, and soon n report went through the coun. try of the animals strange behavior.
 The keepers of the temple, hearing the story. went In search of the dog, and they found him still at the heels of the thief at town called Cronyon. The robber was arrested, taken back to Athens and there punished. The Judges were so pleased with the dogs sagacity and falthfulness that they or dercd him to be fed every day for the rest of bis life at the public expense.
