With good dog-Latin epitaph, 

 Half humorous, pathetic half, 

 That they who read may weep and laugh, 

 And say, ' Alas ! poor Dandy ! ' " 



William J. Conrthope. 



The Dog's Point of View -Q> ^> *^> 

 (From Wild Traits in Tame Animals) 



THE probable view of the fox-terrier or 

 dachshund which lies upon our hearthrug 

 is that he is one of a pack, the other members of 

 which are the human inhabitants of the house. 

 . . . From the dog's point of view his master is 

 an elongated and abnormally cunning dog.

"p\ON'T be shpakin' at all to Mike Hourigan's 

 ^ pup; 



'Tis your wake an' no less av ye're wakin' him up. 

 He denuded the town of sheep, poulthry, an' cats, 

 An' he has himself shtuffcd wid ould breeches an' 

 hats.
