Then she reeled into the dance hall like a drunken nna nnd hrayeii at the noisy piano From that time on "Granny" was worthless ns a pack animal. When the pack was placed on her hark and she was started up the hill "Oranny" bucked It off and ran as fast as ene could for a dance hall The electric lights, the piano and the l,e*r formed a combination that, “Granny" could not resist, and she became a slave to the liquor habit and a loose character generally. 8o aer owner decided to send her to Saloon Keeper Thomas for the pur pose of breaking her of her hod habit, and to be- kepi away from evil Influences. "Granny” was tied In a shed back of the saloon and It waa not long until a wee hit of a colt was horn to her. The odd little beast was christened "Shaggy."
