You'd have thought the little dog was being torn limb from limb, the way he howled. But it was the boy who really suffered. He ac cepted the dog's shrieks at their face value and the streaming eyes in the little grief-distorted face hurt the mother more than she had hurt the dog. The' pup, sensing an ally, redoubled his shrieks and rolled hypocritical eyes of suffering at the lad. I should have known better, but I didn't, so I put In my oar and told the boy his mother hadn't slapped the pup' hard enough to hurt a flea.-The pup understood ana his eyes prom ised he'd get even.
