Cosr or KEEPING Docs. "A statement
has baen mad that it costs ten million Of
dollars annually to keep alive the dogs
that we support in the United States, the
vast majority of which are no. only OF no
manner of use to anybody, but. on the con :
trary, are an abominsble nuisance to eve
rv body. Ten millions year expended
in keeping dogs! Think of it seriously
for one moment Think how many pool
children this would educate-how many
suffering families it would relieve-how
many destitute churches it would support
The amount at present is worse than vast

good purpose, but for an object that is
