Today's Complete Short Story
(L \ said,” began the girl who
likes to talk, “that Bob wan
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, too, 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 apj>eaied. On tho
way over I ^rew rather worried, won
dering whether Bob was clever
enough to distinguish between a call
er who was a burglar and a caller
who wasn’t. Then I recalled Bob’s
gentleness and took heart. 4
“When the front door was opened I
thought the end had come. Some- *
thing huge and white fell across the
hall table, and, stepping all over mo,
attempted to climb on my shoulder
and perch there. I screamed faintly
and wondered if the Prsteur treat
ment hurt much. Then I was con
scious of Amy’s voice.
Very Affectionate.
“‘He’s so affectionate!’ said Amy in
a proud voice. ‘I never knew him to
take such an instant liking to any
one before! He realizes that you love
dogs, I am sure!'
“ Tm crazy about them!’ I assumed
her as I intrenched myself behind two
chairs and a davenport. ‘However. I
don’t care for those aerial effects my
self! Can’t he keep his feet on the
ground?’
“Amy lookfd hurt and said she
should have thought that I would ap
preciate a dumb animal’s fondness for
me. She was interrupted by Bob’s
giving an exhibition of his dumbness
when he saw' the postman out of the
window. Dashing at the glass at tho
speed of 60 miles an hour, he let out
a roar that shook the apartment. Then
he turned and wagged his tail and
twinkled his eyes. I think these dogs
greatly enjoy life. It must be fine to
feel that you can make the whole,
universe bow to the ground and climb'
trees if you wriggle your chin or flop,
an ear.
“I unpacked my suitcase neatly, and
then when I went to dress for dinner
I found that Bob had eaten the heels
off my evening slippers.
“ ‘It’s the funniest thing!’ Amy said.-/
enthusiastically, when I wailed out
the trouble. ‘That dog always has
had the most insane fondness for shoo
heels! We couldn’t have a decent
shoe in the house when we first got
him. He is so intelligent!’
“When Bob was taken out of doors
it was with as many precautions as
though he were a man-eating tiger.
For my part I would as soon sally
forth with the jungle b'-ast as with
that animal. He had a harness on of
battleship leather—well, they have
battleship linoleum. anyhow—alld
snapped to that \v«s a leash with a
loop to go over your wrist, and then
you had a whip.
“Hung On and Slid.’’
“I felt just as though the band was
going to . lay as I entered the saw-
