 his place, came over to the couple, and

 said the master, " this is all right, she's a

 arm. Jack looked up at him, turned away, 

 and left the room. In a moment they heard 

 a noise, and going into the hall, they found 

 Jack dragging his bed downstairs. When 

 he reached the front door, he whined to be

 street to his old home, where he scratched 

 for admittance. Since then he has never 

 been back to his master, refusing all over- 

 tures.
