GOOD DOG
There was an old lady whe rented a furnished villa for the summer, and with the villa also went a large dog. In the sitting-room of the villa there was a very comfortable armchair. The old lady liked this chair better than any other in the house.
But, alas! she nearly always found the chair occupied by the big dog. Bemg afraid of the 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 the dog would rush to the window and bark, and the old lady wouia slip into the vacant chair quietly. One day the dog entered the room and found the old lady in possession of the chair. He strolled over to the window and, looking ont, appeared to be very much excited and set up a tremendous harking.
The old. lady rose and hastenel to the window to see what was the matter. Then the dog quiotlv climbed into the chair.—Chicago Herald.
