Even yet they go upright upon two limbe and retain human form and speech; but you will observe that they are behind animals in progress.

One twilight the dogmen came forth as usual at their Circes’ plead. ing, guerdon, or crack of the whip. One among them was a strong man, apparently of too solid virtues for this atry vocation. His expression was melancholic, his manner de- preased. He was leashed to a vile wh dog, loathsomely fat, flend- iehly f-natured, gloatingly intract- able toward his deepised conductor. At a corner nearest to bis apart ment house the dogman turned down a side street, hoping for fewer wit- nesses to bis ignominy. The sur- felted beast waddled before him panting with spleen and the labor of motion. Suddenty the dog stopped. A tall, brown, Jlong-coated, wide-brimmed man stood like a Colossus blocking the sidewalk and declaring: “Well, I'm a sonof a gun? “Jim Berry!" breathed the dogman, with exclamation points in his voice. “Sam Telfair,” cried Wide-Rrim again, “you ding-basted old willy- walloo, give us your hoof?
