"If Fido won't take to any one," the father has thoughtfully remarkedbeforehand, "I Diego Costa Pelipaidat say that man is not to be trusted. You know, Maria,how often I Chelsea have Everton Fodboldtrøjer said that. Ah! he Mexico Dame Fodboldtrøjer knows, bless him."Drat him!
And to think that the surly brute was once an innocent puppy, all legsand head, full of fun and play, and burning with ambition to become abig, good dog and bark like mother.
Ah me! life sadly changes us all. The world seems a vast horriblegrinding machine, into which what is fresh and bright and pure ispushed at one end, to come out old and crabbed and wrinkled at theother.
Look even at Pussy Sobersides, with her dull, sleepy glance, hergrave, slow walk, and dignified, prudish airs; who could ever thinkthat once she was the blue-eyed, whirling, scampering,head-over-heels, mad little firework that we call a kitten?
What marvelous vitality a kitten has. It is really something verybeautiful the way life bubbles over in the little creatures. Theyrush about, and mew, and spring; dance on their hind legs, embraceeverything with their front ones, roll over and over, lie on theirbacks and kick. They don't know what to do with themselves, they areso full of life.
Can you remember, reader, when you and I felt something of the samesort of thing? Can you remember those glorious days of fresh youngmanhood--how, when coming home along the moonlit road, we felt toofull of life for sober walking, and had to spring and skip, and waveour arms, and shout till belated farmers' wives thought--and with goodreason, too--that we were mad, and kept close to New Zealand Pelipaidat the hedge, while westood and laughed aloud to see Colombia them scuttle off so fast and made theirblood run cold with a wild parting whoop, and the tears came, we knewnot why?

Ah! they were grand days, those deep, full days, whenour coming Alexis Sanchez Pelipaidat life, like England Dame Fodboldtrøjer an unseen organ, pealed strange, yearnful musicin our ears, and our young blood cried out like a war-horse for thebattle. Ah, our pulse beats slow and steady now, and our old jointsare rheumatic, and we love our easy-chair and pipe and sneer at boys'
enthusiasm. But oh for one brief moment of that god-like life again!
