In nothing does social usage show such
a brutal paradox as in its treatment of
the dog. 1t coddles and nurtures him
when he is worthless. 1t kills him ruth
lessly when he is valuable. 1t supports
high toned kennel clubs for his propaga-
ton, and it makes laws to destroy him
at sight. 1t licenses the brute and puts
a premium on him and it gives every
ignorant justice the power to order him
shot. 1t breaches his fidelity and affec-
ton with n breath and calls for his ex-
termination with another. There is more
superstition and ignorance associated
with the dog than with the number thir-
teen.

score of professional dog f~anciers, who
to guard your pet against hydrophobia

partiality in their salutations that com
monty they have two caps under their
hats. The poor, except extraordinarily,
they pass by without any notice; to
others they dof the hat; others more
rich in the world they salute with dof-
