Barry, the Dog Hero f
St. Bernard Pass
By EVA MARCH TAPPAN.
PART L
Rather more than a hundred years
ago there lived in Switzerland, just at
the edge of the City of Berne, the most
lovable little St. Bernard pup that
was ever seen. His name was Barry,
He had a big, round head, a plump
and somewhat unmanageable body
that was always getting into his way,
and paws so large that when he tried
to walk he stumbled over them and
sprawled on the floor. He hadbeauti-
ful great brawn eyes and the most
appealing little whimper that ever
persuaded a dog's friends to give him
whatever he wanted.
Barry and his mother slept in a cor-
ner of the wide piazza right under
Carl's window. He did not discover

on his four paws instead of on his
back the first thing he saw was a
small slender hand stretched down
from somewhere.. Barry gazed at it.
Of course, he had seen people before,
and the people had hands, bat the
eeople were big and the hands were big
and different from this one. He drew
back at first, then went nearer. There
was something about it that he liked,
and he began to lick . it. • And when
the hand patted the cover of the .low
couch and the boy's voice said, "Come
up, Barry!" he did his very best to
obey, and stretched up on his unsteady
little•legs until he could rest his paws
on the edge of the couch and look
about.
{ "You see, Barry," ;aid Carl, "I'm
!all alone just now, and I need a little
, dog like you to take care of me. I'm
sick, but I'm going to be well pretty
soon, aild then we'll do things, won't
we, though?"
Barry waved his tail, "What a'
splendid boy that Is," he thought,
"He's as good as a puppy. I like hien.
I want to' get up there beside him:"
He did his very best to stretch himself
up, the thin white hand gave what
help it could, and in a minute or two
the little dog was snuggling up to his
new friend, quite tired out with his
efforts.
As the boy grew stronger, they
played all sorts of games together.
They ran races, they played •fetch and
carry, they scampered up the drive-
way that led from the ground to the
top floor of the 'barn. They went :to
the little lake and, much to his sur-
prise, Barry found out that he could
swim better than Carl. Best of all,
they learned each other's language.
When the puppy set out to chase a
small kitten and Carl said, "No,
Barry," he understood this was one of
the things forbidden, If Carl said,
"Find my ball and we will have a
play," Barry knew that a good time
was coming, and set off in high glee
to find the ball.
Carl understood the puppy just as
well. If Barry laid his great paw on
the boy's knee and turned his head to
look out of the window, Carl knew this
meant, "Do, please, come out with
me," If Barry gave a short, quick
bark, it meant, "I'm in a hurry." If
it was a long, deep one, it meant,
"There's something wrong." Barry
made one peculiar sounol which was
neither bark nor whine. It began al-
most like a little lonesome sob, but it
ended in a cry of joy. This was his
greeting to Carl if the two had been
separated for a while. The school chil-
dren had 'a song called "The Baron's
Welcome, and they called this cry
"Barry's Welcome."
Barry was a happy dog, but after a
while the day came when Carl and an
armful of books went away from
the house early in the morning,
and he was forbidden to follow.
He sat down on the piazza in
amazement. What could it mean?
It must be a mistake, for, of
course,' he had a right to go wherever
Carl went, and pretty soon he jumped
up and ran after him as fast as ever
he could.
He was only a puppy, however, and
very soon he lost the scent and wan-
dered about, a forlorn little, bewilder-
ed dog, roaming alone through the
streets of Berne. He had never been
there before, When he and Carl 'went
out together, they went through the
bright, sunny fields, but the streets of
the city were quite different. In most
of them the second story of the build-
ings extended to the very edge of the
sidewalk and rested upon heavy;
square pillars. 'This made the walks
dark and gloomy, and the,. poor little
puppy began to feel afraid.
Just then he came to an dpenI
square and heard what seemed some-'
what like a cock crowing far up above
his head. He did not know that this
was only the famous clock of Berne,
and when in a moment more it began
o strike, the little lost dog was fright-
ened almost out of his wits. He ran
or his life, paying no attention to
where he was going and. soon he was
more alarmed than ever, for right be-
fore him were some pits or sunken
yards where bears were kept. Some

of them were walking about, others
were standing on their hind legs and
catching In their forepaws the pieces
of gingerbread that people were toss-
ing to them,
Poor little Barry! He was a plucky
little dog, but he was only a uppy.
He had wandered forlornly through
strange, gloomy streets, he had heard
terrible noises corning down from the
skies, and now he had come upon these
awful monsters twenty times as big
as he, who might •fly right up over
the rails,just as the birds did, and
devour him. There is nothing else in
the world so lonely as a lost dog. It it
any wonder that he threw back his
head and howled and howled? "I want
my mother! I want Carl!" This was
what he said, but no one understood.
A lady patted him and tried her best
to comfort him, but this was not what
he wanted; he wanted to go home.
At last a tall policeman calve and
took hold of his collar.. He turned it
around so he could see the lettering.
Then he reverently made the sign of
the cross and said to the `lady;'-
"This dog .belongs to the good fath-
ers far up on St. Bernard Pass. Does
any one know who has the dogs this
year?" he asked a group of children.
"Carl's father has some of them,"
they replied. "May we take hint
back?" •
Barry had concluded that he was
being cared for, and he had lain down
flat on the pavement, stretched out to
his full length, utterly tired out.
"No," said the policeman. "A. pup
gets tired as soon as a baby.He is too
used up to walk. Pretty soon I will
take him home in the police wagon."
So it was that Barry came home. A
very happy boy threw his arms around
the dog's neck; and as for Barry, he
snuggled himself under Carl's jacket,
nestling closer and closer, drawing in
his breath like a sob, and then making
little plaintive sounds of pleasure.
The next morning, when Carl was
ready for school, Barry sat on the
piazza and looked up into his face
pleadingly.
"No, Barry," ,said Carl. "Dogs
aren't allowed to come to school," and
he went off, trying hard to forget the
mournful little figure an the piazza.
Half an hour .later a delighted boy
ran up thea steps ' of his home.
"Mother, mother!" he cried, "the
teacher says that if Barry will be good
he may come every day and lie in the
hall till it is time to come home. He
says that on the Pass of Sia Bernard
a dog like this one saved the life of
his brother, and that some day when
Barry is grown up he may rescue some
one of us from the 'cold and storm.
Come, Barry!" and they ran of hap-
pily together. •
Barry- grey rapidly into a dog of
medium size, square -built and com-

hair short; but close to the skin it i
was so thick as to be almost like felt.'
His ears drooped and his eyes were
dark and deep-set. His whole bearing
was, gentle and affectionate, even play-
ful, but yet with a certain quiet dig-
nity as if he were awaiting for some-
thing of importance to happen.
When the winter snows begaus to
fall, Barry grew restless. He smelled
the air uneasily. His great brown
eyes began to have a• troubled and
anxious look, like one weighed down
with the thought of work not done and
the fear of not being able to do it.
"He's never been on a. mountain,"
said the schoolmaster, "but he's pin-
