HOME AGAIN.
A boy living outside Paris sent to a breeder of dogs in the North of France requesting him to send him an Irish Setter puppy. The puppy was placed in a crate and sent by train, to the Gare clv Nord Station, where it was received by its new master, removed from the crate, taken across Paris in a taxi, and put in another train guarded by its master. On reaching its destination, a little village about 14 kilometres on the side of Paris, the dog was taken on a, lead to its new home. During the evening the dog was released for exercise in the garden, which was entirely enclosed. When the time came for the dog to be shut up for the night, however, it was nowhere to be seen. Its master searched high and low, consulted the police, and was out half # the night in vain. No trace of the truant could be found. ■ Eight months later a letter from the breeder saying the dog had just arrived home! For all those months the poor creaturo had wandered about in search of its old homo.
