farmer never shears them or works them o
eats them or obtains any substantial benefi
from them. 1t is said that 50 ditferen

existence A great deal of his vermin il
communicated to the human family, and t.
domestic animals. 1t takes as much to keel
a couple of dogs as it does to raise and edu
cate child. Children are said to sufte
from ulcers sores and diseases which origi
mated by their coming in contact with dirty
dogs. Dogs do more damage to othe
animals by the vermin and disease they
communicate to them than any other way
More people die from dog vermin than from
hydrophobia and not few meet horrible
death by being bitten by mad dogs. Tit
above strong indictment is from an ex
change. Whether it is unjust to the dog
we are not prepared to say One thing il
certain, dogs are too numerous, pestiferou'
and destructive. They should be cur taile(
by taxation aud determination. If dog
are property, their owners should pay ta1
on them those, without owners, proving
about, should be killed.

women at G. c. Kiser's store, lead tina
gentleman to believe that one of them a
least had stolen something from him. They
left with the avowed object of buying {
cheaper pail of shoes than Mr.. Kiser offered

store, by offering the shoes at lower price
and while one of the women, Kitty Kimball
was trying on the shoes, he reached under
her shawl and pulled out a pair of pants
