BANGKOK; an Eastern ,,yenice.

Bangkok, Siam, is vaviously called
by those people who revel in compar-
isons, the t'Venice of the East and
the ''Constantinople OF. ASIA" in the
first instance, because of the man y
canals that run through the city, and
in the second, because of the hun
dreds Of wretched and owner less pa
riah dogs that roam its: streets with
impunity. There is much 7tr nth in
both comparisons. Certainly, Bang
kok is the home of the gaunt and
ugly pariah dog, which spends its life
foraging and getting just enough to
keep life in its NANCY carcass, multi
plying meantime with the fecundity
of cats and tropical cline, because
Buddhist's doctrine forbids it's kill
ing. Outcast dogs are not the only
pests whose multiplication in Bang
kok may be charged to Buddhism:
more noisy crows perch of an early
morning on your window casing and

in the space Of a day hover near tie
