THE WORSE DOG.

The term "Dog of an infidel" will lose all its reproach, if dogs prove themselves such good Christians as the one which taught Mr. Spurgeon this lesson: "I walked down my garden some time ago, when the flowers were nicely out, and saw a big dog; and as I was sure he knew nothing of gardening, I threw my walking-stick at him, and gave him some recommendations to 'go home.' To my intense surprise and shame, the dog picked up my stick, and wagging his tail, dropped the staff at my feet. He beat me altogether. I said to him, 'Good dog,' and I told him he could come again whenever he liked, if he was a dog of that kind. I felt that I was the worse dog of the two."
