Fairy Tale
!" NV DnLAM BANNED
DOG HEROES
~wIARY GRAHAM BONNER

"rve heard some splendid things
about dog heroes lately said Daddy
'and of course l want to tell them tc
both of YOU"
Dogs are the best animals in the
world" said Nick.
"Oh, yes" said Nancy, they are
without a doubt"
"Well," Daddy continued, q horse
was suddenly very much frightened
1.-THE horse was used to automobiles
and trolley cars but the horse had not
been hearing anything very noisy and
suddenly a trolley car came around
the corner making a great deal of noise
Il suppose it is just as it is with
people. You know how sometimes a
noise will come unexpectedly and we
will jump?
81 think it was much that way with
the horse.
Anyway the horse did jump and
then he began to run. oh, he was
frightened and he just had to run
anyway, anywhere, just so he could
run off some of his fear, or run away
from it
Sitting in the Dack of the wagon
was a dog. His master was inside n
of the shops in the neighborhood.
GAS the horse started to run away
the dog, with a bound, jumped upon
the front seat and grabbed the reins
in his mouth. Then he pulled and he
Jumped back of the seat so he could
pull still harder and be able to hold
the reins together.
And the dog brought the horse to o
standstill, and about, on the street,
some people saw it and wrote to the
papers and told them of this splendid
dog hero who had thought so quickly
of the right thing to 10 at the right
time.
''For one never knows just where a
runaway horse will run and what will
happen.
But the dog had kept anything from
happening and had avoided all danger
By being so quick and SO brave and Sc
bright"
ooh, what a wonderful dog" saiG
Nick. 81 guess his master was proud
of him all right"
I'm sure Of it," said Daddy.
"Well, he would be a queer master

not to be proud of such a dog" sal,
Nancy, and both Daddy and Nick said
"That's right !"
"Then," said Daddy, 81 want to tel
you this evening, too, of the two
collie dogs who caught and held the
burglar who was trying to rob theil
master.
at was in a big city building and The
burglar knew that lots of money was
Kept there but the burglar did not
know that two collie dogs lived in the
basement of this building.
"'The master had a great deal OF
room for them there and he had 1t
fixed up very nicely for them and he
would take them often into The country
for long walks and runs.
'The burglar was leaving with the
valuabIes he had stolen when the mas
ter, coming in, saw the burglar.
'He tried to get the ~valuables away
but the burglar vas strong and was
getting the best Of the master when the
two %collies, hearing the masters voice
and knowing it sounded the way 1t
did when the master was distressed,
hurried up the stairs.
"Quickly they saw what was hap
pening! Quickly they went after the
burglar.
"Now the burglar didn't like these
two big collie dogs. No, he didn't like
them at all.
"He tried to escape but they held
him fast.
HE had dropped the valuables but
the collies still held him as the master
had not told them to let go.
"The master sent for a policeman
and before long a policeman came.
"And the big burglar gave up steal
ing for his living after tbis. for some
how, not only had he been a failure, but
he had been made to feel such a worth
less wretch Of a creature by the two
splendid collies who got the better of
him.
"And the third dog story | have
been saving to tell you was of the little
fox terrier who smelt smoke late at
night and who awoke every member of
A very sleepy family by pulling at the
bedding upon each bed until they got
up.
'"The fire was put out In time but II
it had been allowed TO get any more
Roadway it would have caught them all.
"And the little dog had saved so
many livesl Was it any wonder that
ne became more of a pet in the family
han ever?"
81 should say not" cried Nick, and
Nancy added:
II have always adored fox terriers"

Acorn Alcohol

Up to the present time no industrial
use has beer made of acorns, but re-
cent experiments show that alcohol can
be made from them. Shelled acorns
contain about 40 per cent of starch,
which can be readily saccharifed and
then converted into alcohol.
