THE CANINE HUMORIST

Dog That's Laughed at

and That Laughs

DACHSHUND STORIES

Although he may not be tho smallest, the Dachshund, for his size, is most certainly the longest dog in the world.

It is not generally known, how- over, that the Dachshund, whose appearance is often the cause of mirth among those who do not know him very well, has, perhaps, a mare highly-developed sense of humour

than any other breed.-

The famous writer, George Meredith, had a Dachshund called Islet, who came from Sir Fitz- hardinga Maxso's kennels at Heligo- land, then n British possession. When Islet died, Meredith wrote an epitaph in verse on this "wagging humorist

dwarf-legged on boxing gloves." This was not just postle licence, for Meredith and Islet treated each other as equals. and shared jokes together. The dog would often enter the room laughing and showing all his teeth, with eyes sparkling with fun, and

It by chance Meredith took no notice, the dog would rap on the coal-scuttle with his paw-and con- tinue rapping until attention was pald to him.
