"JOE" AND "DAN."
The story of "Damon and Phythias"
is often reacted in the world, yet sel
dom is it appreciated among canines.
This inoident. proves that mutual
love and understanding exists among
the lower as well as tbe Higher ani
mals.
Two old dogs, well known residents
of Atbena, inseparable cronies, Joe
and Dan by name, setter and pointer by
breed, are both good specimens ot their
progeny. JUan s youtn was spent in
the strenuous yet f asoinating life of tbe
ring and, do doubt, he oft' related to
bis compauion the nps and downs of
the aotor dog's life and the loving
sympathy was never denied him by
his friends.
Joe had always willingly shared the
most delioate morsels of the overturned
swill barrels, and together in the early
morning they would beat the swamps
and brush for game, returning to tneir
homes tired, yet satisfied with life.
Joe was never to weary too pick from
Dan's long, black aud white ooat the
burrs aud brambles entangled there.
He was never annoyed by these having
short, sliok coat mud and fleas
were his only bother.
Joe would whisper in Dan's ear tbe
depravity of street fights and the les
sons taught by this optimistic dog were
not lost on tbe other, for Dan was a
better dog than when be came to
Atbena five years ago.
Two or three weeks ago Dan was
shipped to other parts. A young dog
has been inoluded who is not a tramp
dog and who is well trained for hunt
ing and Joe's heart is almost broken.
He passes the swill barrels now with
merely a sniff, the morning hunt has
lost its charm, his eyes have changed
from tbe satisfied look to almost a
human appeal, and in that look he is
asking for Dan; his coat is neglected
and when he heaves a deep sigh and
Hops down in a careless heap, perhaps
he thinks the loved friend has deserted
him for the old life and it is useless to
wait for his return. Pendleton Tri-buue.
