The Indian stood still for moment, apparently
deep in thought. and then he went of to kill the
calf.
'eWhy don't you finish your job?' presently asked
the supervisor. seeing the man stand with folded
arms over the unsknned undressed carcass.
You say you give quarter to kill calf was
the reply Calf dead, me want quarter
The white man smiled and handed the Indian an
extra coin to go on with the work.

GRATITUDE OF A DOG.

Olive Thorne Miller tells of a dog which be-
longed to a Colonial family and particularly
noted for his antipathy to Indians, whom he de-
lighted TO track On campaign against the
French this dog insisted on accompanying his
master although his feet were in a terrible condi-
ton from having been frozen during the previous
winter. During the fight which ended in the IA
nous Braddocks defeat he became separated from
his master, and the latter, suppOsing him killed,
went home without him. Some weeks later, how
ever. the dog appeared in his old home, which
many miles from the battlefield. He was tired and
worn, but over his sore feet soft moccasins were
fastened, showing that he had been among Indians
and that they had taken especial pains to be kind
to him. Thereafter, though he showed great joy
at being again among his people. neither
threats nor brides could ever induce him to track
