Harriet Beecher Stowe, in The
Young Folks" speaking about dogs
and eats. says:
1--WE should remember. too. in NIL
our dealings with animals. that they
arc sacred trpst To rs from our
Heavenly Father
There is sickly scntmcntality in
the land about the sacredncss OF
dogs and cats. which We could never
appreciate Both classes OF these
animals are not only filthy, bu.
worthless TO man, and we apprehcnd
no one. except those who refuse TO
care for n higher order Of beings,
that are n little lower than the an
gels. will endorse what Mrs. Stowe
says about them Dogs and cats
should be permitted 60 run in the
woods Wild, and be shot down rs The
wolf and other wild animals. Per-
sons living in cities may regard
them rs sacred trust from our
Heavenly Father, but 90 persons
living in rural districts, where whole
flocks of fine sheep arc destroyed in
might, this fine sentiment can never
DO appreciated. There are other
reasons why dogs should not bc 10
mesticatcd Their tendency to by.
drophobia, and their general worth
lcssness, arc sufficient reasons. As
question OF dollars and cents
there Is not one dog in 4 thousand
that pays for his keeping. We have
known men To make themselves
slaves for their dogs We certainly
think that trust Of that character
would not be very sacred one.
Mrs. Stowe again says;
They arc dumb, and can no,
speak for themselves; they can not
explain their wants or justify their
conduct, therefore we should be ten
der 10 them
This reasoning, in regard &c
horses, cattle and sheep, might bc
good logic; but when applied t.
dogs and cats, VIC think IL is simpll
absurd, and might be applied TO tn
lion. the tiger, the hycna and th,
wolf with equal propricty, who baC
destroyed your aocks aud herds
We simply can not sec the sacred
ness Of the trust, nor the injunction
% DC tender to them.
