GOOD DOG.
There wae an old' lady who rented a furnished villa lor the* summer, and with the villa also went a large dog. In tho sitting-room of the villa there was a very comfortable armchair. Tho old l lad. liked this chair better than .any other in tho house. But, alas 1 ! she nearly always found tho chair occupied hv the big dog. Being afraid of tin* dog, she never dared to bid it harshly to get out of the chair, as she feared it might bite her; but instead she would go to the window and call “Cats!”
•Then tho dog would rush to the window and hark, and the old lady would dip into the vacant chair quietly.
One day the ding entered the room and found the old lady in possession of tho chair. He strolled over to the window and, looking out, appeared to be very much excited and set up a tremendous barking. The old lady rose and hastonel to the window to see what was the matter. Then the dog quiet!v climbed into the chair.—Chicago Herald.
