RAILWAY JACK. 



A DOG at Lewes, near Brighton, has gained the name of Railway 

 Jack, owing to his having travelled over most of the railways in 

 England. 



Jack jumps on a train that is just about to start, and while the 

 train is in motion he looks about the country as if he enjoyed the 

 ride. In^o doubt he does. 



When the train stops Jack jumps down and makes friends at 



once with the station-master. He is well known to many station- 

 masters in England. Jack seldom visits any station more than 



once. He is fond of change. 



Some time ago Jack was away from his home at Lewes longer 

 than usual. His friends gave him up for lost, thinking he had been 

 killed on some railway. But one day Jack came home, to the joy 

 of all who knew him. His leg had been hurt by some train, and 

 this, no doubt, was what had kept him so long from home.
