Show Dog Collected Funds in Life; Continues in Death Since 1892, in Paddington Station,. Sta-tion,. London, a mongrel dog named Tim has collected nearly $10,000 for the widows' and orphans' or-phans' fund of a British railroad, says Collier's. For 11 years, Tim met all trains and begged for coins to be dropped in the tin box fastened fas-tened to his collar. When Tim died of old age in 1902, his body was mounted and placed in a glass case in the station, sta-tion, where he still continues his work, collecting coins through a slot in his stand. |
