A Faithful Cat.

Ny husband had a devoted cat a
few years ago that used to meet
him at a certain lamppost near the
house every evening on his return.
She would then escort him home
with many manifestations of joy
and sit under his chair while he
dined, waiting to receive her dinner
from his hand.
One winter a business trip took
him away from TIE city for several
weeks. Nights Of fruitless watch
ing at the lamppost, her trysting
place, we called it, were followed by
listless days, when she would eat
scarcely anything. She would sit
under his empty chair at meal times
and sniff dejectedly at the most ap-
petizing morsels. At last she seem
ed to give up hope, or else her weak
ness prevented her from walking so
far, and the lamppost knew her no
more. Toward the end Of the third
week and just a day before my hus-
band returned she died-of grief
