Nip.

One morning I found my terrier Nip sitting outside the store cupboard. He always liked to be near when it was opened, because he hoped to get something t<> eat, so 1 took no notice of lain; but he jumped up at me and then at the door, asking as plainly as he could that it might be opened. I scolded him for being so greedy, but he would not move. Later in the day cook wanted something from the cupboard and remarked that Nip had been sitting there ever since breakfast. lie seemed very excited and pleased when he found the door was really going to be opened, and when cook threw back the door we knew why. Pussy, who is a great friend of his, walked out. Nip had been trying to tell us she was there all the morning, only we were too stupid to Understand.—Philadelphia Ledger.
