His son or .-daughter that, he has reared with loving care may prove ungrate ful.

The one absoluteK" unselfish friend that a man can have in. .this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that nev er proves ungrateful or' treacherous, is his dog. Gentlemen of the jury, a man's dog sfaudsby him in prosperity and poverty, in health and in sick ness.
