Stock Photo - THE ADVENTURES OF THE DOG ""JIM"", 1889: 1. Being promised a pet dog by some friends, who have come to live in town and are without a garden, I call, and am asked to leave the dog for a few days, as the family must have more time for the parting. 2. I call again, and capture the prize. 3. ""Jim"" objects to trains. 4. We arrive at our destination, and ""Jim"" is handed out by the guard. 5. As he does not follow well, I decide to carry him. 6. Friendly overtures at his new home are received with scorn. 7. Even a cutlet will not bring his tail into curl. 8. But during the evening, exhausted and melancholy, he becomes acclimatised. 9. And next day settles comfortably down and makes the best of it.
