CHICKENS CARRIED WITH THEIR HEADS Dows.
To the Editor of the Commercial:
In passing through the market, we have been
shocked by the very painful sight of seeing chick
ems carried with their heads down, their poor
eyes filed to bursting with the hot blood. If
the little chicken could speak, it would beg you
to lay it level in your market basket or support
it on your arm. II you want know to how it feels
suspend yourself by your feet from beam. As
long as life is in the chicken we have no right to
give it useless pain. Think of its helpless state,
and act towards it and all of Gods dumb crea-
lures in the way you would like to be dealt with
yourself. SP. c. A.
