THE TWO DOGS.
"Two dogs were sitting on a city
street In front of a house with high
steps," said Daddy.
*' 'It's a pleasant evening, bow, wow,'
said Tag.
"'It's a mighty pleasant one,' said
Tango, and then he addi-d politely as
he wagged his tall: 'Bow, wow, lt'»
j nice to see you."
[ " 'What do you do most of the time?'
asked Tag. 'Do you have fun?'
"Some children walked by Just at
this moment and they saw Tag and
Tango sitting close by each other.
" 'They look as though they wer«
havlug a line old talk,' said one of tha
children.
| "'Yes,' said another, 'they are talk
ing as people would. Aren't they
canning? I do love fox terriers.'
"For Tag and Tango were fox ter
riers.
" '1 do believe,' said one of the other
children, 'that they are talking about
us a« we pass, and picking out the
out they like best and Just having a
fine old talk about everything and
everyone they see.'
"The two dogs were sitting so close
together that they most certainly did
look as though they were telling each
other all sorts of secrets and having
a most wonderful talk.
" 'Children ure nice, bow, wow,' said
Tag, as the children went by.
" 'I think they're gorgeous,' said
Tango, 'but I do hate to see children

get angry and cross and people will
think dogs aren't nice creatures.'
"'I don't like real teasing anyway,'
said Tag. 'It Is always mean. Of
course when people tease each other
Just In fun and don't try to be meaa
It Is all right, but usually teasing la
very unkind.
'• 'And It's not fair, for the creatur#
who Is teasing doesn't think whether
he or she Is hurting some one's feel
ings or not.
" 'Yes, bow, wow, teasing Is apt to
be very mean and unfair. And many
a time I've seen such a nice child cry
ing because her feelings were hurt.
And I've seen a dog's eyes look pa
thetic because some one has been I
teasing.
" Bat do let's talk about something
more pleasant than teasing.'
" 'Yes, let's," said Tango.
"'It seems to me,' said Tag, 'that I
asked you a question a little whlla
ago, or maybe I asked two questions.
Then we got talking about teasing and
forgot about the questions. What were
they? Do you remember? If you
don't, I'll try to think them up again.'
" 'I remember them,' said Tango.
"'What were they?' asked
A-.w.
" 'Yeu asked mi If I bad fun, and
what I did most of the time,' said
Tango.
" That's true, so I did. You have
a fine memory. Tango. Well, pray an
swer the questions.'
"'Tea, my master says I've a good
memory,' said Tango proudly. 'Well,
I do hare lota of fun. I play and I
try to he useful and I sleep and I
eat.
" 'Every night when my master
come* horns from business I bring him
his pipe, his bag of tobacco and his
slippers. Of course I wait until he hns
has had his dinner and Is sitting In his
big chair.
"'He pats me on the head and
says: "Oood old boy," and that Is
enough of a reward for me, though
he usually has a dog biscuit or some
extra sort of a treat. He says X give
him a treat and so he likes to give
me one. Isn't he a fine master?'
"•Tag nodded, wagged his tall, and
said: 'Do ge on.'
" 'In the morning,* said Tango, 'I
take his collar and tie. He keeps them
In a box on a low ahelf In his ward
robe. I push open the door with ray
nose, then I get off the top of the box,
and very carefully I lift out a collar.
I have to be careful so It will be sure
to be clean for my master.
"'And then I pick out a nice tie for
him. I pull it down from the tie ,
rack, and I give him a different one 1
for the different days. These are my
timM for helping the master nnd tho !
rest of the time I play, eat and sleep.'
"'Isn't that Interesting?' said Tug,
for I live Just about the same sort of I
a life.'"
What Would Follow.
Little Hazel was saying her prayers
before retiring and, having got us far
as "If I should die before I wake,"
she hesitated.
"Well, what's next?" asked her moth

"Why," replied Hazel, "I suppose a
funeral would be the next thing."*
