So Filkin, having no particular delight
in caring for Rose Imperial, let her run
as she pleased inside of the kennel and
stable Enclosures.
Rose was quick to find broken plank
in an empty stall in the stable and tc
explore below. She found the ground
soft and began to tunnel. There were
only two feet of earth between her and
the open fields.
Champion Doldrums was not long in
discovering this secret of the new
spouse of his royal bosom. He follow
ed her to the empty stall and saw her
writhe down through the broken plank
TO the ground beneath the stable.
A horrid thought obtruded itself up
on him.
He shuddered and his hair stood on
end. Was she departing to meet a
rival, perhaps some old fame?
Doldrums sickened under the thought.
He reproached his master for bringing
into the Doldrums family any female OF
the species sprung from such stock as
the Trenholms owned.

O'Brien critically examined Davvie':

to the tip.

all right" he declared "It's just the
right length and it slopes right"
He slapped the brute on the shoulder.

Jump, Dav," he ordered. Jump

Davvie leaped into the air, touching
O'Brien lightly on the shoulders.
"All ginger and smack" said the crit
ical stableman. "He is surely some
dog"
O'Brien departed for the stable where,
from a high shelf, he took a plate of
bones.
Davies Uncle Bung was yelping
with delight. He took turns at trying
to break his chain and at trying to slip
his collar, but the chain was a good,
strong one and the jaws of Uncle Bung
were so heavy that he could not pos
sibly pull free of his collar.
"All right, old scout" said O'Brien,
comfortingly. Your tony relatives
have all the style and must live on bis
cults, but it is good big bones for Bung,
believe me-"
Uncle Bung was released from his
chain and in a very few minutes was

his tail wagging all the while. Occa-
sionally he would pause, lick his chops
and look up with gratitude into the eyes
of his friend who sat near him polishing
the silver trimmings on the Sunday har-
ness of the Trenholms.
With the waning of the day O'Brien
went to the servants hall and cheer

I guess. Muscles tight; no fat; stands

He tucked Davvie under the chin and
made him throw himself in position.
O'Brien picked up a forefoot, bent il
upward, examined it carefully and
seemed satisfied.

little in Rose to grow enthusiastic over.
There ever had been rivalry between
the Cutting and the Trenholm kennels.
Moreover, Rose was sullen and inclined
to snap. The men let her alone and
Rose was glad of it, for she was plan

bounded out of the stable to take up

as he wished. and come back when he
was good and ready.
Rose Imperial had been away from
her own family for a week, and the
visit of her old mistress, Miss Doris,
nearly sent her wild with delight. The
poor creature howled her head nearly
off and wept her eyes red.
She did not find the Doldrums tribe
at all to her liking. Had there been
any Reno in dogdom she would have
fought her way to it, for her champion
mate she found stuffy, frumpish, and
about as amusing as crutch.
