DOG ADOPTS HUMAN BABY.
C. F. Baker in Our Dumb Animals.

The story of the unusually loyal
devotion of a stray dog came to
light at Kokomo, Indiana, recently.
It is the story of Jim" big yellow
nondescript, who adopted" little
girl. He isn't homeless now, but we
are getting ahead of the story, which
is this:
When little Geraldine Rammel
was less than a year old, her mother
took her on shopping tour, the
babe riding in a large perambulator.
Stopping at store to make her final
purchase. the woman left the baby
asleep in the perambulator in front
of the store.
Coming out again, she was greeted
by a deep growl when she attempted
10 approach the carriage. A strange
dog, huge and tawnycoated, stood
guard and refused to allow any one
to come near. He also refused to
leave No one knew to whom the
animal belonged, but evidently he
proposed to stay where he was.
The mother became alarmed and
was about to call police officer to
take away the unwelcome guardian.
On second thought, however, she
realized that the big fellow was do
ing what he thought was right. She
set about to convince him that she
was friend and approved his at
titude.
She finally succeeded and the dog
consented to allow her to come near,
but he did not leave. Instead, he
walked sedately by the side of the
perambulator all the way to the
family residence There was no fool
ishness from him-no cat chasing or
rambling about in yards. He marched
like dignitied soldier.
Arriving at the house, the big dog
watched with interest while the lit
tie girl was taken out of the carriage.
He insisted on going into the house
Not wishing to arouse his ire again,
the family allowed him to enter.
After hearing the unusual account
of the adoption" of the baby by the
Strange dog, it was decided to give
the animal a home, if he cared to
stay. He did care to stay and soon
became 'one of the family" Not
knowing his real name, Jim" was
chosen for him, and he soon learned
to answer to it. He was found to be
a well-trained dog, above the average
in intelligence, obedient and thought
full of the welfare of his human as
sociates The family also discovered
that he was not always rs sedate and
solemn as on the first trip home, but
that he liked to romp and play.
But, while he made friends with
Mr.. Rammel and the two older boys,
'Jim's' true love was the little girl.
During the summer months he dozed
for hours close to her crib in the
shady yard, but he slept only lightly
and resented in no uncertain man
ner the approach of a stranger.
When Geraldine learned to toddle,

"Jim's'' duties became manifold, but
he took the increased responsibilities
upon himself without question.
When she could escape the eye of
her busy mother, the child wandered
all over the neighborhood
Wherever she went, however, her
self-appointed guardian was close at
her heels. Here come Jim and
Geraldine" was frequently heard
throughout the neighborhood. But
the dogs devotion was not limited
simply to trailing his charge. Time
after time the child would wander
toward the busy street, but the
moment she started to step on the
pavement, Jim would catch the
folds of her dress and gently but
firmly pull her back into the yard.
When first told of this feat, the
writer gave little credence to it, but
a personal investigation proved it to
be true. In fact, he saw the dog pull
the little tot back when she pro-
tested strongly.
''Jim's' origin is still mystery to
the Rammel family, although it has
been four years since he came into
their lives and took it upon himself
to care for Geraldine, who is now five
years old. The dog seems to have a
place in his heart for all members of
the family, who are very fond of him,
but it is to the beck and call of the
little girl that he responds most
willingly.
