into the living creature through a miscroscope.
Every bit of humanity in cries out ''why?'
Why should the rabbits and the dogs and the monkeys
and the pigeons and horses and and frogs be torn
pieces while they still alive?
For the benefit of medical Students young fellows at

Such things are done Pleasant faced young men dis

them into jar to die They cut into the eyes of whining

These things crimesif not in the eyes of the law

But that doesnt mean that there not great secrets

Vivisection is old practice. 1t done by Galen.

tests OF humanity is its consideration No worthy Of

Don't grow excited over this vivsecton talk It may
make little thoughtful and all it can do
