One fine day. however, my unc e insisted that I should take his gun * ad hit crack setter. Belle, and go over the game preserves, a mile or ao bacb of the house, and try my baud at the quail, which, he said, were so plenll. ful there that if I abut my eyes and et tbe charge go haphazard, with Belle’s assistance I would be bound to come home with the game hag filled.

Once or twice she even came up to me, looked up Into my face, ave a little bark or two, and then started back and worked at flushing the birds with renewed vigor. “Finally, just as I had about ex hausted all my ammunition without hitting a sing e bird I saw Belle sud denlv stop, tak-e a long look in my di rection. as though some deg idea of hers had been confirmed. Then she bounded towards me. gave a few barks when she got near, which were un doubtedly expressive of the deepest dog disgust for me as a sportsman, and awav she scampered as fast as she pould go, over the fields ant through the woods to the house. “I followed a little later verv much erestfal en. From that hour Belle never paid the slightest attention to ne during th- 1 remainder of my visit and no cajoling op my part nor com mands of her master could make the intelligent and discriminating setter even so much as look at me.
