Tot is 17 months old. St fan i By How Did The Lilile Dog Know She'd Be Safer on Floor In her sleep she shifted her weight causing the pillow to slip from the chair. She fell to the floor with a spine-jarring thud. She ' sheepishly walked away from the pillow, looked back at it as if it had tricked her and purposely had thrown her to the floor. - She felt a little foolish, so she crawled under the daven port and surveyed the room. She couldn't see that anyone had pushed her. She was a small, young, Boston terrier, whose head was about the size of a man's fist. She was accustomed to sleeping on the pillow in the rocking chair mainly because the pillow was very soft. She showed an uncanny ability al way to find the softest or most comfortable location to enjoy her nap. These sleeping per iods sometimes continued for hours. Comfort was her main concern in life. Avoided Pain - - She would go outdoors when the weather was mild, but if a single rain drop was falling or a cool wind was blowing, she insisted on re maining indoors. One drop of rain water on her back sent her scurrying for cover. At such times she would lay her ears back and her soft, gentle eyes would register' extreme self-pity. She could assume a pathetic appearance without half trying. That was the way she look ed after the pillow fell with her. The dog's owner picked up the pillow and placed it back in the smooth bottom chair.

She was still un der the davenport. It was a couple "of hours later that the little dog noticed the pillow back in the chair. She studied it for several minutes, then walked to the back door and scratched onthe door. Later in the day the dog re entered the house. The first thing she did was walk over to the rocking chair and look over the pillow. Again she studied it for several min utes. Suddenly making up her mind she approached the chair, reached up with her mouth and grabbed the very soft pillow and pulled it onto the floor. With a satisfied lit tle grunt she stepped up on the pillow, turned around a couple of times, then curled up in a compact little ball and went to sleep. Owner Watched The little dog's owner had watched the entire perform ance with amazement, won dering in his own mind just what reasoning power or thought processes triggered such an action. He wondered how the dog figured out the idea that a de cision must be made and that the very soft pillow on the floor posed fewer dangers than the same pillow on the chair. Could this be instinct, co incidence or some manner of dog-intelligence? Seemingly, the only one who could pos sibly answer this was the lit tle dog herself but she was sound asleep on the very soft pillow safely on the floor.
