A Good Finder One day two friends went for a walk. One of them had a dog. "See here, John," one of the
men said. "I am going to put this coin here in the ground, I know my dog will tind it."
He put the coin in the ground on the road. Then the two friends went on. In half an hour
the man took out the coins he had in his pocket and said to his dog, "I lost a coin, Rex Go and
look for it, quick."
The dog ran back along the road and the two friends went on. At that time the traveller
drove along the road. His horse kicked the coin from the ground and traveller picked it up. The
dog scented out the coin in the pocket of the traveler's trousers and ran after him. Soon they
came to an inn.
The traveller thought, “Poor little dog. It lost its master." As he liked the dog very much
he took it to his room and gave it a good supper.
Then the traveller took off his clothes. He put on his pajamas and his night cap and was
ready to go to bed.
The dog stood at the door. The man thought, "The dog wants to go out," and he opened
the door. The dog snatched the man's trousers and ran out of the room. The man ran after it with
his night cap on
The dog ran to its master's house. The man ran after it. He was very angry, "Sir", said the
dog's master, “my dog is very clever and if he ran away with your trousers, it is because you
have in them money which is not yours".
The traveller became still angrier. "I'm sorry”, said the other, “but I know there is in your
trousers' pocket a coin which you picked up on the road. It's my coin. That's why my dog
brought me your trousers."
The traveller was amused. He laughed together with the dog's master. Then he took out
the coin and gave it to him. He took his trousers and went to his inn.
