alive American man and wife, used
to money and knowing the worth of

paying So extra fare for the dog, by
the way, on the train. They went to
a large orgulous hotel and in the due
course of time the dog needed sus-
tenance.
Ring for waiter" said the hus-
band, ''and We'll get the dog some
scraps.
The floor waiter came and when
asked to get some food for the dog.
explained with some hauteur that
he was the floor waiter and not the
dog waiter, but would inform the dog
waiter of the desires of the dog. The
dog waiter arrived in course of time
and the predicament of the dog was
explained to him. The dog waiter
wrote down the order carefully and
departed. Presently he returned
bearing silver tray on which were
displayed daintily' various articles of
food-some vegetables. some meat,
and a cracker or two.
Whats that?"' asked the husband,
examining the contents of the tray
with interest.

waiter replied.

who were members of Troop No. IS,

1t to the woods where they spent a
very enjoyable day A clearing in
the woods was selected and several
camp fires were lighted. Some
cooked potatoes while others fried
steak. Bacon was broiled on the
end of long stick. MarshmaIlows
toasted over the hot Goals were
proven very tempting.
