Dr.. and Mrs. Stoddard accompan-
led by Mr.. and Mrs Jack Cook,

You all know hat pigs is pigs"
and one lady in Hanna has found
that dogs is dogs" also. Whether
they be the blue blooded pedigreed
sort or the common street-roaming
barking mongrel. To explain all
this l must go back a little ways. A
Hanna, to live in Parco, a couple
ways been a highly valued pet. Now
said collie missed his friends in
Hanna and probably, also objected to
the aromatic fumes that pervade the
Parco atmosphere; SO after vainly
the strange surroundings, he gave it
up and one night, like the Arab Of
story book fame, he dropped his ears,
tail and silently stole away. End of
chapter one. Besides the collie, this

Now Mrs. B. felt very badly when
she heard that her friends were
minus their pet, and always, in
driving around in or out of town,
has kept An argus eye on all quad
rupeds, hoping to locate the wan
derer; imagine then, when a week
or SO ago she spotted a beautiful
collie roaming the streets Of Hanna,
apparently Unattached, the flutter of
excitement that took possession of
Mrs. BIS heart. Not wanting to
make q blunder, she stopped her
car and watched the dog for some
time. No n seemed to claim him;
she drove aimlessly around town an
hour or more, always landing back
where she began; still the dog frisk-
ed around. as tho seeking some one
to make friends with. Mrs. B.. felt

beauty-spot on the shoulder. the
same curl Of the tail, the dropping
eye-lashes, sweeping the cheeks of

eyes OF bottle-green or sky-blue Owe
forgotten the exact COLOR. Finally
her mind was made up; she opened
the car door and called prince,

leaped to his feet and with a bound
was in the car. licking Mrs. BIS
face. yelping and jumping in a man
ner that plainly manifested his de-

face. OF course Mrs. B was over

of the siren and grinding on brakes
as the monster ran her into the
ditch, brought her to a full stop. n
man. pale and excited, jumped from
the car and demanded his dog. Poor
little Mrs. b. turned white and red
by turns and tried to explain to the
brute that she was sure he was mis-
taken. hat this dog knew her and
to the name OF Prince
and belonged to her friends in Parco.
The man declared she was the one
who was mistaken and said the dogs
name was Scott" and proceeded to
prove 1t to her by calling the ami

grinned and wagged his tail
and tried to kiss the man: but by
that time Mrs. BIS ire was reused,
