Today’s Complete Short Story.
y\ ^ Y said,” began the glr! who
.to talk, "that Bob was
gentle as a kitten and so af
fectionate that in -contrast a pair of
love birds were petrified images of
heartlessness. She said many other
things, 100, over the telephone about
the bull terrier that in a misguided
moment they purchased some time
ago, but. that was because she was
trying to make me think I was crazy
to have him while she and her hus
band went to Panama.
“I was to pass a few days with her
and get acquainted with the paragon
of dogs. Amy said that she always
felt perfectly .safe with Bob in the
apartment, because he would chew up
any burglar who appeared. On the
way over I grew rather worried, won
dering whether Bob was clever
enough to distinguish between a oall-
er who was a burglar and a caller
who wasn’t. Then I recalled Bob's
gentleness and took heart.
“When the front door was opened I
thought the. end had come, fcoma-
thirtg huge and white fell ACRM the
hall table, and, stepping all over me,
attempted to climb on tny ihoirtder
and perch there. 1 screamed fafrrtH
and Wondered if the Pasteur treat
ment hurt much. ’Then I wees con
scious of Amy's voice.
Very Affectionate.
“ He's ,0 affectionate!’ said Am, In
a proud voice. T never knew him to
take auch an instant liking to any
one before! He realizes that you love
dogs. X am sure''
'' 'I’m crazy about themV I assured
her as I intrenched myself behind tiro
chairs and a davenport. 'However, i
don't care for those aerial effects my
self! Can't he keep hi* feet on the
ground?’
"Amv looked hurt and said she
should have thought that J would ap
preciate a dumb animal’s fondness f<ir
me. She was interrupted by Bob's
giving an exhibition of his dumbness
when he saw the postman out of the
window. Hashing at the glass at the
speed of 60 milbs an hour, he let. out
« roar that shook the apartment. Then
lie turned and wagged his tail and
twinkled his eyes., I think these dogs
greatly enjoy life. If must be fine .to
feel that you can make the Whole
universe bpw to the ground and climb,
trees if you wriggle your chin or flop
an ear,
"1 unpacked my suitcase neatly, and
then when I went to dress fou dinner
I found that Bob had eaten the heels
off my evening slippers.
“ ‘It's the fnnnie?t thing!’ Amy safflv
enthusiastically, when i wailed out
the trouble. ‘That dog always, hag

formed him till the cat had strolled
by. If I had fancied up to now that
Bob had been hastening I was rate*
taken. He had been dawdling, bnt
when he saw that cat he turned on
full speed.
“All that T remember is hurtling
through r e air, hanging to the leash
for dear life, for Amy had cautioned
me that I had the safety of the pub
lic in my hands, and so I did not dare
let go. Bob spread hijnself low oyer
the ground and just ate up the dis
tance. We chased that oat down the
street, then through an alley and then
whizzed up, the steps of a big house
just as the front door opened and a
perfectly lovely man emerged attired
for an afternoon wedding or a tea-
fight.
"I let Bob go then, because I fell
over the top step.
He Was Sympathetic.
‘The tea-fight man. after rising
from . where he had been tossed by
Bob, picked me up. There were aw'-
ful - sounds of riot from inside the
house, where Boh had treed the cat
on a mantel. It really was an un
usual situation.
“ ’He is such an intelligent dog/ J
stuttered. And so affectionate.’
“The tea-fight man actually
grinned. T owned a terrier onee mv*
self! .he^conflded, understandingly,
".lust then Rbh dashed out and
climbed into my lap with his muddy
paws, just as though he was not
something slightly less than a young
hippopotamus. Baying his huge head
on my shoulder, he sighed contented
ly. as though he. had. had a very
pleasant afternoon, indeed.
“Oh. -yes, I’m going to take him
while Amy is away. I think a Httla
