STARVING BULLDOG
GIVEN GOLD TOOTH
Regal Mascot Has Regal Crown
for MOlar Lost in Fight
With Coyote.

Visitors to the factory of the Regal
Motor Car company in Detroit these
days are often greeted at the door by
a fine, large brindle bulldog; not In
savage manner, however. but with much
tail wagginc and show of friendliness.
This friendly canine is none other
than the Regal mascot, and the story
Of his career sounds romantic, indeed,
First of all. he has very romantic
the institution with which he IS iden-
titled. IT is none other than Plug
ger" Where Plugger was born, no one
knows. except that it was probably IN
the vicinity of New York.
His Identification with the Regal
company began on the nth day OF
July, 1909. This was the day, 1T will
be recalled. on which the Regal com
pany's well known endurance car, the
Plugger. left the city of New York for
its remarkable tour across the CONT
nent, that was accomplished in thirty
days. 1t was while bowling along the
road in the suburbs of the metropolis
that the men in the Plugger found the
dog languishing by the roadside, appar.
emily tagged out from an extended
Journey on foot. Taking pity on the
animal, Sales Manager Wilcox succeed,
ed in making friends with him, and
1DNe1gIed MIN inr0 Jne auuOmODlle. L nus
"Plugger first became identified with
the Regal. He was subsequently dubbed
"Plugger,' like the car in which he
rode.
On the entire tour across the CONT
nent and back again the dog was an
occupant of the car. He and the crew
became fast friends, and. as Sales Man
ager Wilcox says, "Our journey would
have been monotonous, indeed. ofttimes
had we not bad 'Plugger' along to en-
tertain u.s.
''Plugger' has one distinctive feat
ure that few other CANNES of his kind
probably possess. namely, gold tooth
The large incisor on the right side of
the lower jaw is made of this valuable
metal. "Plugger lost his tooth while
crossing the plains. One day, some dis
tance ahead of the automobile, he saw
what he thought 10 be another dog. AS
a matter of fact. it proved to be a coy
ote, "Plugger' at once, canine fash
ion, imagined him an enemy, gave
chase and soon came upon the foe, A
vigorous battle ensued In which
"Plugger finally drove off the beast
although he was considerably marred
up In doing so, and had lost the above
mentioned incisor. Subsequently he was
placed in the hands Of veterinary
and honored with the distinction Of a
gold tooth.

eight O'Clock in the morning Ardmore
had never felt better in his life, he as
sured himself, as he chose room
with care and intimated to the land
lord his intention of remaining week
But for i'll luck of having his baggage
marked he should have registered
himself falsely on the books of the
Inn: but feeling that this was not
quite respectable he assured the land
lord. in response to the usual quSs-
ton that he was not Ardmore of New
York and Ardsley but an entirely diff

strangers were profoundly entertain

more that man could be so amiable

It was only whispered down there, but
they say Osborne was a little toe

"Oh, he's up there in the hills on

Ardmore entered the hotel deliber-
ately. climbed to his room and locked
the door Then he seized the little brown
jug, drew the stopper and poured out
a tumblerful of clear white fluid. He
took a swallow and shuddered as the
fiery liquid seemed instantly to cause
every part of his being to tingle He
wiped the tears from his eyes and
sat down. The corn-cob stopper had
fallen to the floor and he picked it
up and examined it carefully. 1t had
been fitted tightly into the mouth of
the jug by the addition of bit of
ralico, and he fingered it for mo
ment with a grin on his face
He was about to replace it when,
to his astonishment, it broke in his
fingers, and out fell carefully folded
slip of paper. He carried it to the
window and opened it, finding that it
was an ordinary telegraph blank on
which was written in clear round
characters these words:
The Appleweight crowd never done you
harm II you have any of them arrested

When Mr. Thomas Ardmore had read
this message half dozen times with
increasing satisfaction he folded 1t
