that is the limit of their experience
with dog prices. AS matter of fact
the dog is priceless, for colonel Bios
som has no need of the fortune he
would refuse for him In his young
days Bill was a ribbon taker in Eng
land, where the Blossoms picked him
up. He was a well known dog then
with a fght-seamed face, a body bear
ing honorable scars and with old age
in sight. The Americans brought him
to Pasadena, where he could pass his
dotage in peace and dignity. Bill has
never been exhibited in this country,
largely from sheer sense of his supe-
riOrity in his owners. For years he has
paraded the Blossom estate alone, so
far as any of his kind are concerned.
He is always in front of the house
on the high hill and accompanies even
ing callers to and from the door. Should
a visitor incidentally desire TO wander
in the gardens, which are enchanting,
lying over acres of terraced slope, he
is thwarted by the dog, who first gives
gentle rubs, later pulls, lastly a low
grow. Beyond the growls no one has
tested his workmanship.
In his photograph Parker has caught
the grim dignity that petting never
lessons in a bulldog. The lines across
the jutting jaws and iattened nose are
as deep and characteristic as they are
in life, and even the scars show. This
photograph of Bill Sykes hangs over
the Blossom fireplace.
Two Biblical Bulldogs.
Bills only rivals in the collection are
two broadly built br1ltes that are quite
the most magnificent specimens of the
bulldog in Los Angeles If the records of
the bench shows are evidence. Paul
and Saul, belonging to an attache of
the Burbank Theater, can be seen
prowling about the theater district in
Los Angeles almost any night. chained,
muzzled and appearing very unhappy at
finding nothing on which to expend
their viciousness. Like their Biblical
namesakes, Saul is said to be wary,
low minded and tenacious. but his met
amorphosis, Paul. is as hardy a fighter
and his record a cleaner one The pho
tograph was taken after hours of work
and only a short time after the photog-
rapher had quelled with a few sharp
words a low growl from Saul. Very
rarely. however. has Mr.. Parker heard
his subjects growl. He makes too sure
first of being their friend.

London Eats Imitation Butter and Banana Flour

"HE British government has re-
Gently issued as a Parliament
ary paper a report of the Sc
lect committee appointed to
consider the conduct and control of the
trade in butter and butter substitutes.
The report was agreed upon unani-
mously and makes suggestions to be
embodied in legislation.
The London Times asserts that gen
uine dairy butter is a thing past pray
ing for. Four-ffths Of the population
of London, the Times asserts, have
never seen it in their lives Those who
know what it is obtain 1t in many
cases at any price. What is called gem
uine butter in London, the Times says,
is blended and reworked butter It's
tough tenacious texture is as different
as possible from that of real dairy but
ter and it is destitute of the subtle
aroma of the genuine unworked butter.
The Times says that both the imported
butter and that made at home are gem
orally blended buffers.
The Parliamentary committee pro-
poses that butter factories shall be reg
istered, the registration to be renew
able annually. and that inspectors shall
be empowered to enter all such prem
ises when they suspect that butter is
reworked blended. adulterated.

..fIe has spitz expression" said the
owner of the furry white Pomeranian
spitz "Rollo" in the Parker collection
Evidently the spitz expression is that
of the incurable romp with ungovern-
able mischief in his eyes. Days of care
full cultivation were the preparation for
this photograph. Before it was taken
Parker threw sticks into the middle of
the road for long time to bring out
in the dog the mood he wanted to pic
ture. At last he hoisted the camera
like a block Of wood and lowered it
slowly to the level OF the, dogs eyes.
They were glued on it in tense expec-
tancy. At the psychological moment
the shutter was snapped, fixing the ex-
pectant look forever.
