The dog'a part was chiefly passivo, but ho must hava posacasod remarkable qualitios to awaken the affeotion which tho cat had for him ; 8o wo ro- cord with Lonor tho namo of Pip. Wa do not know tho cat's nume, which is & pity, for sho do- gorves whatovor immortality n nowapapor can bestow. Thus, then, it fell out: Pip foll sick, and for soveral days lay languidly in one placo, enting nothing. Agnin nnd again the cat bronght o him bits ng tha food given to her, and tried to coax him to oaf, but in vain. At last, one day, s woman eitting in tho room whero thoy .were saw tho cab, who bad boon watchung Pip with ovident anxioty, dart suddonly out of the window and rush across the streel, In n momont sbe camo_back carrying_gomothing in her mouth, which she brought to Pip aud laid it Qown. DTip got up, sniffod ot it, then turned awny snd Iny down again, ' Tho cat dragged it close to him, and thrust it under his nose, Thus orsuaded, Lo taatod it, aud ate helf of it. Puss hon carried the remainder to tho grass-plot, and horsolf foll to work on it with & good appotito. It proved, on oxamination, to bo o hot mutton chop! The person who watched the affnir went to tgn housa acrogs the way, and asked in tho Kitohon if thoy had had mutton chops that day. i Yes,” was tho answer ; ¢ aud as tho dish stood bofors the fire, in rushed your cat, and boforo wo conld stop her she carried off one of the chops I We aro happy to add that Pip got woll. p e Jokos on the Shah.
