Such meager fare his want sup-
plies!
A hand caress, and from his
eyes
There beams more love than mor-
tals know,
Meanwhile he wags his tail to

That he’s a dog.
If you confer a benefit, never
remember it; if you receive one,
never forget it.

It takes a great deal of grace
to be able to bear praise. Censure

HE’S JUST A DOG!
By Joseph Mi. Anderson
Here is a friend who proves his
worth
Without conceit or pride of
birth.
Let want or plenty play the host,
He gets the least and gives the
most—■
He’s just a dog.
A word of deep devotion lies
Behind the windows of his eyes;
Yet love is only half fcis charm—
He’s die. to shield my life from
harm—
Yet he’s a dog.
