No Tomptation Could Luro Him From Guardianship of Body of Man Ht Loved. “Dog!” used as an epithet applied to a human Is a '‘fighting word.” But after having read In a California dally j a news item of Bob, 1 feel that the I term should no longer bear insult. Bob was a common Airedale terrier, but his story shames numerous pages ! of human history. Hia Is not an ordinary tale of fidelity unto death; It is different. Bob’s master and a companion went for a hunt along the edge of the Mojave desert. Days passed, y<t they did not return home. When a searching party came to the end of the trail In their little camp both hunters were dead. There had been a tragedy. Only Boh knows what happened, but circumstances seem to lead to the belief that his master had accidentally shot | his companion In the back, then, In u moment of anguish, put the rifle to his own head. Bob was left alone with the dead. | Although he was an expert hunter, he could not leave his silent master even to catch one of the numerous rabbits scurrying through the brush. Soaring lazily In the blue above watched a vttl- | ture. He knew that Death had passed. Already t>n the ridge above the camp two coyotes licked their chops In antici-
pation.
Five days and five nights Boh kept the complaining birds and beasts from their feast. When the searchers came tip, a dozen vultures swished out of the brush and the coyotes slipped over the ridge. Boh was whining near his master’s ear; he had grown too weak to
stand.
Yes, Bob’s story was different: he was faithful after death. Only fifty miles from the scene of this tragedy history records one greater. Less than fourscore years ago a party of men, women and children, crossing the mountains, stayed hunger with the flesh of their fallen comrades. Had Bob done likewise the rescuers would undoubtedly have shot him Ignomlnlously. But he had not
i Imitated man.
Since Bob was only a dog, why did
he not satisfy his hunger as have numerous explorers and shipwrecked sailors? Or, why did he not abandon his silent companions to chase the taunting desert rabbit which he could
have outdistanced with ease? Since Boh cannot make know n his
thoughts to timn, no one will ever know Just why lie suffered hanger

It was In a Scutari house that I sat drinking coffee with three generations of women. The grandmother had been of a mountain tribe, but she married i in Scutari and, as Is the custom, had never seen her people again. But the old tribal laws still held her. and she blushed with shame when the interpreter told me that her granddaughter, busy at her loom weaving stuffs for her marriage dowry, had seen the man she was to marry. “Young people in these days have no shame,” she said sternly. "It is the life of the cities that corrupts them. Ay! I remember well that even with my own daughter I hud my troubles. True, 1 had brought ber up ; to be a good, modest girl, and she never saw her husband until she was | safely married to him In his house. But she did not want to marry him, because she had heard that he was old and ugly. Ay! what days I She would break the honor of our family, she would go before the chiefs and swear to live all her life a virgin. She was like a mad one. At last we had to beat her very terribly, and she was nearly dead when we took her to her husband’s house. Yes, 1 remember It well," The daughter, mother of the young girl who was weaving her dowry, smiled at the memory. “Ah, yes, I was a bad one," she said placidly. “Young girls do not know what Is good for them. Yes, Indeed, if my daughter would not marry the good man we have chosen, 1 would beat her also. It was not with my consent that she saw him; one cannot help it now. Only, she does not leave this house again until her wedding
day.”
Thus, even In modem, Catholic Scutari, one finds the old Law of Lee still alive beneath the surface. For among the primitive mountain peoples, where each tribe la said to have deseended from a common prehistoric ancestor, marriage within the tribe is I as unthinkable as marriage between I brother and sister, and girls are be- , trothed always to men of strange | tribes, whom they have never seen.— ' Rose Wilder Lane, In World Traveler
