no mrmber of doadoma pour hundred waa lie and 1 doubt that the family tree of hla parenta was evon important enough to cast the tiniest of ahadowa this story waa told to me aa we were aeated on the ferry that piles dally between burllnaum vt and port douglas ny crossing beautiful lake champlaln with the usual idle curiosity of the summer vacationist i allowed my can to wander among the happy bustling crowd pert gaily dressed flapper they were cluttering away like mag- plea fond parenta with their tiny kid dles clinging to llieir hands aedau matrons men both young and old in fact all the hundred and one kinds ol humanity that is to typical of this brent country of ours plnally my attention waa drawn to my nearest traveling companions a dignified elderly couple were they moat carefully ond expensively groom ed obviously people of wealth and refinement at the gentlemans feet crouched the hero of my atnry rags his heavy jaws resting upon hla fore- paws so evidently a mongrel and iueh a decided contrast to that very pros perous couple did he seem that i must have stared impolitely th old gentleman returned my glance and as his eyes met mine 1 knew that my face had betrayed mv thoughu i beg your pardon he ven tured im afrad that my dos luuil made the best of mptxtans has he naturally embarrascd at having mj thoughts read so easily i stammered n bit incoherently that it waa hardly the dog that i should have associated with people of their type mags is old and homely i admit tlie nun continued but to us he is beyond price ills wife smiled and nodded hei head in agreement aa she leaned for ward and fondled the dogs ugly head with her soft white hand immediately i sensed a story and with a little encouragement my travel ing companion rewarded me with tale that i have never been able to forget although this happened some years ago rags la a soldiers dog the man began you see our son jim went over there with those countless other american lads to do his share in that horrible maelstrom of death and de struction that we knew aa the world war willie billeted in a small town just behind the lines jim came upon rags then a uny puppy trying in vain to find warmth and food by the dead body of his mother they adop ted each other immediately and were constant companions during two year of terror and bloodshed jim told us later that the feel of that shaggy little body and the rough carea wen the only bit of happiness that ha knew during that terrible siege later jim waa invalided home suffering from shell shock and minor wounds and with him came rags the dog remained with him at the army and navy hospital and had much to do in our opinion with the lads re turn to health and strength i did have to pull a few wires be fore uiey would allow the dog to re main he chuckled remutlscenuy but remain he did so you see when jim was released finally and did come home we were so overjoyed at hia return that we accepted nigs as sort of o necessary evil i confess that my wife did have to stand a bit good natured raillery about her thoroughbred from our mends and many a greasy bone left ita tell tale mark on the rug before the lib rary fire while the prints of his mud dy paws upon the stairs and in the hallways were a source of great an noyance to the housekeeper are you boredr he questioned at this juncture i assured him that i waa much in terested and begged him to continue and an he went on although our boy waa physically well again shell shack had left him in such a way that any loud report or sudden noise would leave him speech less paralysed in loci for a few se conds at a time rags with some super instinct sensed these attacks and at these times he would tug sharply at jims coat sleeve or irouser leg and never failed to bring him back to earth again and aa the attack patted a pat of the boya hand on the ahaggy head seemed to say that all waa well and the two would go on aa though noth ing had happened one day aa jim was crossing the square with rags at hla heels the shriek of the siren and clatter of fire trucks turned the boy to stone directly in front of tlie on coming wheels i have the story of an eye wlinets of what then happened continued the narrator rags with more than human intelligence ran between jims legged upsetting him neatly with hs then powerful jiwl mass- wwr and pulled his master to safety in less time than it lakes me to tell you the eyes of the soldiers mother be came a bit misty at this point and in thla episode waa ever fresh in her memory but to continue the boy was stun ned and bruised but hla ufa waa saved but rage here stui carrlea the scars of ids brnveryi as he spoke he lifted the dog a front leg and running across the ribs from front to back leg waa re vealed a ludeous star that the shaggy coat refused to hide rugs almost paid with hla life but we nursed him back to ufa and have nuulo pretty much ever since just then a tall seriousfaced young man made his way toward us and i knew by tlio do- evident delight that ii must be tlio jim of the atory hags row to greet his muter and the look that passed between them i can find no words fittingly to describe aa we were then ruwrlng our destin ation i thanked the kindly story tell er end joined tlie rest of the party at the rail a few momenta later x felt a touch on my arm and jlma mo ther addressed ma apologetically if father hasnt bored you too much id like to have you see for yourself how rags guards hla master the landing whistle will get jim aha declared it always does so if you are really inter ested just keep your ayes on them and sure enough the whistle blew long ond loud and tlie young man be came rigid utterly unconscious of the bustle and movement about hlra but lugs over loyal and watchful had not forgotten a few sharp tugs at his masters sleeve and tlie tense mus ics and nerves rela ui rigid hand oeeame normal and found ita atay to the falthlul creature a head again that look from thoae brown dog eyes straight into the kind blue mes or hla master somehow i waa not a bit ashamed of the tears that itemed to find their way into my own or of the lump that arose in my throat i doubt if any other person than myself had seen this drama but i have never been able to forget is there a dog heaven i wonder there must be for such animals aa this and i pray that it u not too far from rags beloved masters id like to think that when judgment day rolls around rags kindly tug at hla masters sleeve will receive the return ing pat of jims hand and knowing that alls well they will go through

pedestrians who have been victims of reckless or speedy driving these people walk ing along the roods have found them selves struck by automobiles and either killed or serlousy injured although in most eases quite innocent of any contributory fault for the accident it is not lurpruing therefore to find mr justice latchford while hearing a case involving the running down of two people by a motor car taking the side of the pedestrians he said pedestrians do not aeem to be wruldered in road coristructloa they do not seem to have any right on tho highways wlhtf to practice there is a great deal of truth in justice latehfords assertion the highways seem by practice to be th exclusive property of the motorist and pedestrians who venture on them un der present conditions take their lives in their own hands they must at every moment be ready to skip out of the way of an oncoming car or to walk in the ditches and even then they ore not always safe dally the neces sity for footpaths along the highways is hecomlng apparent and the high ways offlclsls in punning new eon- itructlon work would be well advised to make provision for these even on highways already built it would save many lives if provision vert made for pedestrians off the paved tactions where the motorists hava full sway it may be an expensive matter to provide these footpaths along aide every highway but a start should be made in the more densely travelled sections and the work gradually ex tended to other points so that the pod- ettrlons in time would find that they hod a shore in the highways as well as the
