THE,SAD PATE OP MONTE.
A Dog Story with a Beautiful
Moral.
What a Glass of Beer Led To.
From tho Indianapolis Herald.]
There was no better behaved dog in
the entire State of -Illinois than Bal
lard’s “ Monte.” lie was young, hand
some, intelligent, educated and of
K 1 moral habits. lie was a high-
set ter, with loug, soft hair, dark
brown in color, tawny uuder the
throat. Ilis eyes were soft and melt
ing in their expression, his silken ears
had the patrician droop, and his aris
tocratic tail was eloquent in its ex
pression of joy and affection, and rigid
as an axc-haudlc when its owner came
to a point. (Monte was a reasonable
dog. You could always make him
sec the point without the aid of the
hunting whip.) As lor his nose—
there never was such a nose hung to
a dog before. 1/e could scent a quail
across aTortv-acro field, and could re
trieve anything but his reputation in
the latter part of his career. lie
would carry a dead bird half a mile
and put it into ‘he wagon, and he
never mouthed or mangled the game.
'When Ballard wan nervous or llustcr-
cd, and missed a good shot, M'»nlc
cheerfully came up to be licked with
the ramrod, magnanimously taking
all (he blame on himself, hut when
anybody else of the parly missed a

Tins next morning Monte got up
with a raging headache. He felt had.
His hair pulled. Bn* he seems to have
heard of the. drunkard's axiom—“the i
liair ol the dog is good lhr the bite”—
ami lie accordingly followed Ballard
down town and “rungin” on him while
he was taking his matutinal whisky
and tansy. Ballard Mood treat, and
.Monte, “hisled in” a glass of old slock
ale. Several loalers thought it was
funny to see a dog making a beast of
himself, and so they invited poor
Monte to take another until the upshot
ol it wn* he went homo that night
dnmker than ever. It got noised
around town that Monto liked beer
and everybody began to invite him.—
The consequence was that he became
R Sot. Jle neglected his business.—
llis beautiful eyes became red and
rheumy, and hi-silken coat got shaggy
He frequented the bar-room* and
“laid" for invitations to drink. When
hard pressed lie would run Ids lace
with the bar-keeper.
Monte made frequent ellbris to re
form, hut dog llesli is weak. After a
day or t wo of abstinence, he would
ldunge in a deeper debauch. And so
he went from had to worse. Ilia-mas
ter becoming alarmed,served not iee on i
all the wln.-ky sliopa not to let Monte
have anything; but all to no purpose.
Hu found means to get drunk every
day. Beer got too Weak for him, and
he look to whisky. Other dog* begun
to look down on him. Smith's dog, a
miserable, mongrel, cut his acquaint
ance. Even the fiees and bcnch-ic*s
regarded him with pity that was more
galling to his proud nature than con
tempt. Finally the cad came. After ,
an unusually protracted debauch,
Monte began to see things. lie would
bristle up at imaginary dogs, and then
shrink in the most abject terror from
some imaginary assailant. Them 1*
would come to a dead point on notluag,
and again he wot.hi luistle imaginary
cats about the yard, and getting them
in a corner, hark lor luug; hours at
vacancy. He cuuldn'i sleep. He
rouMu c cat. Ho couldn't do anythin*-
that was sensible, and finally died as
tho fool diolh—of jiio jams. We buried
him under an n| pie tree, with a head
board bearing mu following iimriii-

That was a lie about the cause of
his death, but we couldn’t find in our
heart to ra\ that so good a dog died
of «U liriuui tremens Fourteen times
lias the apple tree shed its blooms
upon Monte's grave, but his virtues
are still remembered by all, while the
broad mantle of charity is thrown over
liis frail lies.
