Dogdays Is approaching and will soon
be in our midst.
This Is something which comes every
year about this time and is worthy of
a editorial concerning It from our pen.
The dog-star Is now in its ascendancy,
so the Almanack says, and dog days viii
soon be at their zenith We looked in
the dickshionary to find out what a
zenith Is. but the dickshionary don't
seem 10 she'd much light on it We also
asked Amos Hillyer, our attorney and
legal light, and Anne says that while the
Hame. sounds familiar TO him he can't
seem to place it somehow, although in
his opinion It IS legal term or some
branch Of higher mathematics
What we was going to say about
dog days is that We desire TO call the
attenshion of the Board of Health to
this matter. Everybody who has any
sents knows that dog days is the time
when dogs goes mad and bites inno-
cent bystanders and gives them hyder-
toby whether they desire it or not This
is a awful menace to our civilization
and ought to be stopped It is the swore
duty of the Board of Health to put a
stop to it What is the Board of Health
elected for except TO promote the health
of the citizens in and around Bingville? /?
Is it healthy to 90 and get bit by a mad
dog2 We answer, MOP
We realize that the Board Of Health
can't stop dog days from comm bit
more than they could stop Christmas,
but the B. of II. can keep its eye on
all the dogs in Bingvillc during dog
days, and when one of 'em shows signs
of going mad then let the board step
in and eradicate II, Mad dogs ought to
be kept chained before and after Why
is dog owners so careless? They always
wait for a dog to go mad before they
chain it up and then like as not it is
too late
There is too dog-goned many dogs
| in Bingville anyhow, and some of 'em
amt worth llickin outen the road. Take
that bulldog of Hez Andrews for IN
stants. The other day Hez was a
walking down to the P. o. TO ask for
/ his mail being as he was expectin a
letter from his brother Sol, who lives
out in Iowy and amt wrote to Hez
since 1884 and Hez don't understand
why Sol don't write and fearing the
worst he has been pretty punckshuaI to
ask for his mail for the past dozen years
and so the dog was folering right along
at Hezze's heels when Hez meets up
with Joshua Weathersby The dog
started for Josh and begin to growl, but
Hez he says, Stand still, Josh-th' dog
won't bite ye," and so Josh stood still
and the dog walked right up to him and
bit a chunk right outen the calf of his
leg. What objeckt people has in say
ing their dogs won't bite when they
will IS more than we can imagine. Josh
has been on pins and needles ever since
as you might say fearing that he viii
have hyderofobia any m1nnit
That's why there ought to be some
thing did by the Board of Health. Let
this be sollum warning to that august
body to perteckt the lives of our citi-
zcns from this horrible mallady. Let
the Board not wait until some of us have
been bit, but let it take time by the
forelock, as you might say, and perteckt
l Us while We need perteckshion.
