No plea for the dog is complete without quoting the late Senator George Graham Vest, of Missouri: "The one absolute, unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog. "A man's dog stands by him in prosperity and in pov erty, in health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold ground, where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he can be near his master's side. He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer, he will lick the wounds and sores that come in the encounter with the roughness of the world. He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince. When all other friends desert, he remains. "When riches take wings and reputation falls to pieces, he is as constant in his love as the sun in its jour ney through the heavens. If fortune drives the master forth an outcast in the world, friendless and homeless, the faithful dog asks no higher privilege than that of ac companying him, to guard him against danger, to fight against his enemies. "And when the last scene of all comes, and death takes his master in its embrace and his body is laid away in the cold ground, no matter if all other friends pursue their way, there by the graveside will the noble dog be found, his head between his paws, his eyes sad, but open in alert watchfulness, faithful and true even to death. During the world war, the warfare upon dogs was in augurated by some of the valient who stayed at home and proved their valor by slaughtering the dogs under the pretense of conserving food. Yet these home warriors were put to shame by the dogs sent to the war zone, where, in the trenches, in no-man's-land, and on the bat tlefield, they played a distinguished part in winning the war. We were told by legislative log-rollers that dogs must go in the country, because a few of them kill sheep yet for every sheep killing dog there are a hundred herding and protecting flocks. Hence a state tax and authoriza tion for wholesale slaughter of dogs on sight by county peace officers We are informed by councilmanic wiseacres that the city is no place for dogs and the spuerintendent of streets is promoted to dog-catcher to place them in durance vile to graft the owners with the alternative of sending them J... it... r 1 i! 1 ir i ,1 , t i H 10 uie nappy nuniing grounds. ie . ine city clog nas proved his value, not only as a companion of children and guardian of the home, but as a member of the police force as a thief-catcher. Some of them take the place of child ren among the frivolous but this is a plea for real dogs not pampered poodles. What Salem needs is an ordinance licensing the dog under whatever restrictions deemed essential. Muzzle the dog. if deemed necessary, safe-guavd the public as needed, but make it possible for man to keep his truest friend, the dog, without practising cruelty to animals. If the council cannot rise to the occasion, the initiative should be invoked. Jolly Robin had something on his mind. For several days he had turn ing a certain matter over in his head. But' in spite of all his thinking, se seemed unable to find any answer to the question that was troubling him. So at last he decided he would have to ask somebody to heln him. And that was why Jolly stopied Jimmy Rabbit near the garden one: day. "I want your advice," he told Jim my Rabbit. "Certainly!" that young gentleman replied. And he Bat himself dow n upon his wheelbarrow and looked very earn est. "If It's anything about garden ing," he said, "I should advise you to it ! stood looking at each other in collator nation. "What have we done?" I asked. I "What shall we do?" he atiked in re turn. "Ruth must never know,' I said. "Ruth must know immediately," he answered. . "I shall go away and never seen you again," I declared. "You will stay right here, whore my arms can find you, any time, and suit ing the action to the word he drew me close to him again. "Hut Ruth loves you! You are the father of her children!" No Effect on Ik'r Heart. "Kuth does not love me, although 1 am the father of her children. Ruth loves her children and is grateful to me for them. The knowledge of your love and mine may hurt her pride, but it will have no effect upon her heart. Why, my dear, should we make oursehr es perfectly miserable In all the years to come, for the sake of what the world may say in connection with its precon ceived Ideas of Ruth's life and mine?" Katherine, I loved him loved him so that I do not believe I would, have been strong enough not to have taken him from Ruth at any cost. 1 humbled my pride and went to Ruth and told her just what I have told you. Then 1 knew that Rob was right, her pride was touched, hut not her heart, for she said to me: "Take him, but I want to tell you that he Is nut worth the taking. He certainly is not worth the keeping. I have all that life ran give to make me happy my children,, and 1 shall be happier when I know I hat I will not have to divide their love with any one!" My mind refused to picture a wo man like Ruth. 1 slopped reading for a moment to get used tu the idea.

'I'd like to have some regular work, you know. And since you ve had a gooa aeai ui experience, having run a tooth-pulling parlor, a barber shop and a shoe store. I thnueht vou might be able to tell uie what would be a good business for uu to take up. rnr a few minutes Jimmy Rabbit did not speak. But he nodded his head wisely. "Let me see!" he said at last. "What's the thing you do best?" Jolly Robin replied at once that he thought he could fly better than he could do anything else. And he felt so happy, because he was sure Jimmy Rabbit was going to help him, that he began to laugh gaily. And he couldn't help singing a snatch of a new song he had heard that morning. And then he laughed again. "You're mistaken," Jimmy Rabbit said to him. "You fly well enaugh, I dare say. But there are others who can beat you at flying No!" he declared, "what you can do' better than anvbodv I know is to laugh. And if I were you I should make laughing my regular business. That idea struck Jolly Robin as be ing so funny that he laughed harder than ever. And Jimmy Rabbit nodded his head again, as if to say, "I'm right and I know It!" At last Jolly Robin stopped laugh ing long enough to ask Jimmy to ex nijiin how anvonp could make a busi ness of laughing. "I don't see how It could be done," said Jolly Robin.
