 be boon to the city and benefit to the transgressors. Smoking in public is comparatively modern custom.

 The highest court of Connecticut has declared that dogs have rights that human beings must respect, and II IS a righteous decision. A fellow in Will Hmantic thought he would amuse him. self by tormenting a good-natured buil- dog owned by neighbor. Finally he lifted the dog up by the ears and blew cigarette smoke into his face. The dog resented this last act and bit the fellow in the face. He died soon after. The owner of the dog was sued for dama- ees and was beaten in the lower courts, and the case was carried up until is re.ched the court of errors. The claim for dsmaee was based on the provision of the law that the owner of dog is r,sponsible for the damages 1t did, ana there is no provision for any provoca- aon. It was decided that annoying the dog on the premises of it's master was m excuse for the biting, ana the injured man was at fault for what nap pened to him.
