Tales of Real Dogs-By Albert Payson Terhune
He Dropped It Down the Shaft
A few months ago I told you the
story of a coon hound that fed a
dog chum of his which had fallen
into a quarry pit, and at last drew
human rescuers to the spot. Here
is almost the same kind of story;
verified by many witnesses. But
the scene of this tale is not Amer
ica, but Ausctralia.
At Hall's Gap, near Stawell,
Australia, lived James Scott, a
rancher. Less than a mile away
from him lived his nearest neigh
bor, Jacob Pawsey. Both men had
fine Airedale dogs, which were not
only admirable guards, but hunt
ers as well. Pawsey’s Airedale was
named Brant, Scott'3 was named
Wrangler.
Early in January, 1931, in the
middle of the Australian summer
(the seasons are opposite from
one another in Australia and in
the United States, the Australian
summer being our winter), Wrang
ler disaDDeared
Scott valued the dog highly. He
hunted everywhere for him, and
spent much money in advertise
ments. But Wrangler was gone.
Pawsey’s dog, Brant, haul been
a lifelong chum of Wrangler's. The
two dogs had hunted and loafed to
gether every day since puppyhood
Brant showed his worry over his
chum’s absence by teasing Scoti
and Pawsey to follow him out into
the woods, and then by absenting
himself from home for hours at a
time.
The two men paid no heed at
first to Brant’3 teasing, thinking
he wanted them to go look afresh
for Wrangler. As the days went on
Brant ceased his useless effort
to lure the men to the woods with
him. But he spent more and more
time away from home.
Also he grew thin, though his
food dish was well filled every rtav
and nothing was found tn It when
it wa3 taken to be refilled.
His owner thought the Airedale's
loss of flesh was due to his pining
for his lost pal. Then someone no
ticed that his regular absences from
home always occurred just after his
mealtimes.
One morning, Pawsey saw Brant
pick up a huge bone and lug it off
into the forest. Stirred by curiosity,
the man followed, though at first
he thought the dog was taking the
bone to the woods to bury it in
some safe place.
But Brant did not bury the
bone. Running as fast through the •
would permit, he kept straight
ahead. Pawsey followed as fast as
he could, ever more and more cu
I rious.
Through the undergrowth and
i then up a hillside Brant sped. He
came to a halt at the top of an
1 mine-shaft. Pawsey came in sight
just in time to see Brant drop the
| bone carefully down over the edge
of the shaft.
Now this is not the normal dog’s
fashion of disposing of bones.
Pawsey knew that. He hurried for
ward. Brant turned, at sound of the
crashing underbrush, and caught
sight of his master.
The Airedale dashed over to
meet Pawsey. Whimpering and
shivering with excitement he led
the way to the mouth of the aban
doned mine-shaft. Pawsey followed
and leaned far over the edge.
Prom the depths below rame the
1 sound of a dog’s bark. The mysteiy
of Wrangler’s disappearance wa:
solved. Yes, and the sight of Brant
dropping the bone down into the
shaft solved the mystery of how
Wrangler had kept alive all that
■ tlma.
Pawsey ran to Scott's home with
the news Togrther the men hurried
back to the shaft, carrying a stout
knotted rope This rone was fast
ened to a3tump near the opening:
and Pawsey descended the steep

pocket.
When he got to the bottom,
there was Wrangler, none the
worse for his long imprisonment,
and wild with de'ught at prospect of
a rescue. There, too, on the ground,
were dozens of meat bones and
crusts and the like—the food Brant
had cast down tor his chum to eat.
Water in holes at tha pit bot
tom had provided drink for ;he cap
tive, and Brant’s daily gifts of oread
and meat and bor.os had kept him
plump ar.d healthy. But Brant him
self was skeleton-thin, from having
given all his meals to the prisoner.
Wrangler was taken home. In
triumph. Tb.at night, for the first
time in a long while, Brant ate a
tremendous dinner. Now that his
friend war, safe, he could afford to
use his own food for his own bene
fit.
It was surmised that the two
Alrdale;; had been hunting ;o
gether along the hillside when
Wrangler had blundered Into the
shaft hole and had tumbled un
hurt to the bottom. Brant had tried
to lead his master to the spot. lad
ing, he had fed the unfortunate dag
every day since then.
Thus far the story has a happy
ending, and I wish I might shop it
here, or say that the reunited
dogs spent many a happy day to
gether, thereafter. But the hap
piness was pitifully short.
In less than a week after Ills
rescue from the shaft, Wrangler
was trotting across a road, in
front of Scott's farmhouse, when
a speeding motor car struck and
killed him.
This was a situation too terrible
for even Brant's cleverness to
lighten. He was heartsick over
Wrangler's death, and he moped
miserably about his chum’s grave,
refusing comfort or food or shelter.
His own lifesprings were snapped
by grief.
A reporter from the "Melbourne
Herald" was sent upcountry to get
the story. He wrote of Brant:
"He refused to be comforted, ne
glects his food and runs whining
about the familiar haunts where he
and his pal spent so many happy
days hunting rabbits together.”
It is a strange coincidence that
this Airedale in Australia and a
coon hound in America should
have had almost the same experi
ence, during the same month, in
feeding and finally leading rescu
ers to a chum which had fallen
into a hole too deep and too steep
to climb out of. But both stories are
100 per cent true.
It seems, also, an unnecessary
touch of fate that Wrangler should
have been kept alive for days bv a
loyal fellow-dog on’y to be killed
soon afterward by the carelessness
of a speed-mad human.
Every year, many thousands of
pathetic little furry bodies lie
dead in highway and ditch, as
sacriiices to the heedless or heart
less folk who revel in motoring at
top speed and to whom the death
of a 'mere dog seems to mean i
nothing.
These people cpstroy wnat tney
cannot restore. I have heard more
than one of them nay:
"What does the life of a cur
amount to?"
That is a question which only
the "cur's" Creator can answer.
But maybe, sooner or later, there
is an answer, and a bill to pay
that cannot be oald in cash.
I like to think so. Perhaps I air
mistaken, or perhaps r.ot.

When You
CAN’T
QUIT
Fatigue is the signal to rest. Obey
It if you can. When you can’t, keep
cool and carry-on in coinfort.
Bayer Aspirin was meant tor
Just such times, for it insures your
comfort. Freedom from those pains
that nag at nerves and wear you
down. One tablet will block that
threatening headache while it is
still just a threat. Take two or
three tablets when you’ve caught a
cold, and that's usually the end
of it.
Carry Bayer Aspirin when you
travel. Have some at home and
keep some at the office. Like an
efficient secretary, it will often
“save the day” and spare you many
uncomfortable, unproductive hours.
Perfectly harmless, so keep it
handy, keep it in mind, and use it.
No man of affairs can afTord to
ignore the score and more of uses
explained in the proven directions.
From a grumbling tooth to those
rheumatic pains w hich seem almost
to bend the bones, Bayer Aspirin
is ready with its quick relief—and
always works. Neuralgia. Neuritis.
Any nagging, needless pain.
Get the genuine tablets, stamped
with the Bayer cross. They are of
perfect purity, absolute uniformity,
and have the same action every time.
Why experiment with imitations
costing a few cents less? The saving
is too little. There is too much at
Btake. But there? is economy in the
purchase of genuine Bayer Aspirin,
tablets in the large battles.

HUSTLE NO VIRTUE
IN CHINESE EYES
If I were to try l<» sum up In a
phrase the main difference between
the Chinese and ourselves, l should
say that they, in the main, aim at en
joyment, while we, in the main, aim
at power. We like power over our
feliowmen. nnd we like power >ver
nature. For the sake of the former
we have built up strong states, nnd
for the sake of the latter we have
built up science.
The Chinese are too lazy and too
good-natured for such pursuits. To
any that they are lazy is, however,
only true in a certain sense. They
are not lazy in the wny of tropical
peoples; that is to say, the Chinese
will work hard for their living. Em
ployers of labor find them extraordi
narily industrious. But they will not
work, ns Americans and western Eu
ropeans do, simply because they
would be bored if they did not con
tinue doing their daily work.
Nor do they love hustle for its own
sake. When they have enough to live
on, they live on it, instead of trying
to augment it by hard work. They
have an infinite capacity for leisurely
amusement—going to the theater,
talking while they drink ten. admir
ing the Chinese art of earlier times,
walgiDg In beautiful scenery, or
playing gnmes.
Living in the East t»»s, perhaps, a
corrupting influence upon a white
man, but I must confess, that, since
I was In China, I have regarded lazi
ness as one of the best qualities of
which men in the mass are cnpnhle.

Thinker.
