Hector was a pup (1906)

[Bapopik at AOL.COM]

   Greetings from my half-hour lunch hour in the Bronx.  I just had a respondent named Hector.  It's a popular Greek name-or is it a popular Spanish name?
   I expect "Hector was a pup" to be in PUCK, but that's still not ready.  A peek at Newspaperarchive before I go back to work:
