DOG HELD Elm UP.

There is a great joke on one of our
citizens. Having formed q friendship
with a gentleman at Sayreville and an
evening being set for a visit, Mr..
Dash boarded a trolley car and went
to his friends house. When he arrived
there he found a large dog in posses
sion of the yard and it was no use
saying, "doggie, doggie, nice doggie, y
for the animal paced up ana down the
yard while the visitor walked the
street in front of the house for forty
minutes.
By that time finding his expected
host did not make his appearance, Mr..
Dash, thinking the animal too large
to tackle, made a bee line for the
trolley and came home with his trous-
ers intact. The next evening his
Sayreville friend came to call on him,
and, although he did not find a nice
"doggie" on guard he was obliged tc
press bricks and go hunting after Mr..
Dash. They finally met and another
evening was set for u visit, which has
since been enjoyed by them. Where
the joke comes in, doggie was only o
puppy and now Mr.. Dash's friends are
asking him if the dog has grown any
larger since he was there before-just
q week ago.
