He was seated in the sweet smell. ing hay in the loft of the great old barn. His straw hat lay beside him, his bare toes wrigsled in the excite ment, but he was oblivious to every thing but the doughty deeds of Sir Montague the Mighty. He had just reached the place where his hero had slain three of the robbers and was struggling desperately with the fourth, from whom he had rescued the faiI lady, when 8 discordant voice brought him back to this twentieth century.

DOG THAT USES THE PHONE
Really Remarkable Animal That ln' diana Man Owns, and He Is
 Proud of HIm.

Francis D. Craig, of Indianapolis, who owns a farm in Brown county, near Heimsburg, says his tenant has a dog that displays as much intelli- gence as any singing or piano playing "houn' dawg." Watch, is the dogs name. and 1t Is just cur, without a pedigree. Watch strayed mile or SO from home some time ago, and calling the dogs name did not bring 1t back. Finally the tenant tele- phoned to He1msburg.
 "Yes, Watch Is here," was the re- ply in answer to an inquiry.
 Watch heard the telephone bell ring and became interested. The receiver was put to the dogs ear, and when it heard its masters voice, 1t parked with delight.
 Come home, Watch" said the ten ant when he heard the dogs bark.
 Watch made leap for the door, and was home in a few minutes. Since then the dog has learned to use the phone. When 1t Is away from home, and wishes the owner to know where it is, it enters house or store, goes to the phone, and barks until the receiver Is taken down. When this Is done, the exchange operator, who knows the dogs voice, makes connection with the owners house, and Watch barks I'm here" or "I'm coming"-at least. the barks sound something like that, MT. Craig says. Watch has even been known to take the receiver down with It's paws, but as 1t finds difficulty in holding the receiver to its ear, the dog prefers assistance.-Indiana News.

 It was not long after that the COWS came home driven by knight with . sore back and 9 bruised soul.
 That night he could not lie on his back long at a time, and so he tossed about and thought deep and bitter thoughts. He told himself "he didn't keer about the hurt" although he was not at all comfortable, but 1t was the idea that he, brave knight, should be whipped. And, worst of all, he had shed unmanly tears. He said to him self that 1t was fun to fight, but the story book heroes never had to take . lickin'. But they wouldn't have cried, anyway. He had disgraced himself. He wondered if he could ever regain his honor and self-respect.
 Finally he fell asleep, but in the morning the thought of his humilia- tiol still haunted him. He brooded all day, and toward night he made an aw- full resolve. He would leave home. He would go out and win hs spurs.
 At supper that night an enormous amount of cornbread disappeared. but he did not eat it. He slipped most of 1t into his pockets. He went upstairs early, but not to sleep. Instead, he lay on the floor and listened breath lessly for his parents to come up. Aft CT what seemed an eternity he heard them mount the steep stairs. He wait. ed several decades longer until he heard his fathers snore, and then stole down stairs. took his fathers saber from the wall and felt his way to the kitchen. Then he strapped on the sword, and felt that his adventures had begun. After groping around for some time he found the object of his search, the big tin coffee pot. This made an excellent helmet, and, bal. ancing 1t on his head with difficulty be crept outside and strode toward | the barn. As he reached the barn door his helmet dropped with a fear ful chatter.

AS a matter of fact, Philip
Graves was deeply moved, but for
all that he had not the least in
tention of returning home. Dur
ing his period of Imprisonment he
had been thoroughly initiated in
to the possibilities of crime by his
fellow convicts. He would have
liked to re-establish himself in the
favor of his fellow citizens, but
the idea seemed laughable. His
old mother in Mapleton was
doubtless able to exist without
him; his sisters held good posi-
tions and could take care of her.
He took the train to the capital
and spent his money in two days
of,riotous living.
The second evening found him
penniless. 1t was cold and dis
mally wet, and the long tramp
through the dismal suburbs had
not raised his spirits. He sat
down on the sidewalk and buried
his head in his hands. That was
the first time he had ever serious
" considered the future.
