an eagle and a dog. "A few days ago,

lowed in the direction in which the
dog ran and was amazed to see the an

a large pine tree.
On closer scrutiny he found the'dog
was waging a savage battle with q
large eagle nearly five feet in height
The bird would descend upon the dos
and attack it with It's powerful talons.
while The dog would spring away a.
ertly, trying to bite Its enemy. Th=
exciting combat continued for son
time, but at last threatened to end in
