Should Dogs Be Ban
iShed From Richmond?

I than that of rabies. because a rabid
dog can usually be recognized on
sight, while one carrying the seeds of
consumption can only be detected by
medical examination.
You would not think of giving to
your children, for pet, an animal
capable of envenoming them with its
bite-how much less should you be
willing to subject them to the infinite
ly greater danger of an infection that
hides itself in apparently innocent
caresses. Every dog that runs at large
is liable. from it's habits, to contract
tuberculosis, no matter how carefully
it may be guarded against the dan
ger when it is under observation at
home.
This may be one of themysterious
sources of the spread of tuberculosis
in spite of all the efforts that have
been made by medical societies and
preventative association to stamp it
out. And, remember. that cats are
equally dangerous. Neither cat nor
a OOS is a III companion Tor man IN
his home. or in any of his great CEN
tiers Of population. That dogs are spe.
cially subject to infection is shown by
the fact, noted by Professor Cabot.
that tuberculosis disease is five hun
dred times more frequent among dogs
than among horses. And cats are, ap-
parently, not far behind dogs in their
liability to such infection.
This new and terrible indictment
against the dog, added to the many
which already exist. should be suffi-
cient TO lead to its complete Danish
ment from all large cities and towns
1t is dangerous because of its frequent
savage attacks upon children (some of
the favorite pets of dog fanciers are
most vicious in their propensitiesl be-
cause of its liability to rabies. the
most awful infliCtion that an animals
bite is capable of imparting, because
of its Objectionable habits in the
streets, and. most of all. perhaps. be-
cause now We know that it is an agent
for the spread of tuberculosis

MARRIED LIFE -
BY MABEL HERBERT URNER.

Ut was Thursday, the day Helen had
asked Katherine Grant to dine
with them. But, at noon, she call
ed up saying she was quite i'll and
begged Helen to come to her. Even
over the phone there were tears in
her voice.
Bring the baby if you can't leave
her, but come-just come" was her
pitiful appeal.
Helen found her in a darkened room.
her hair disheveled and her eyes red
with weeping.

kissed her. Il didn't know you'd been

Serviss Says House Pets
Spread Tuberculosis-En-
danger Lives of Children.
BY G. p. SERViSS.

~ HERE are at least 1900 tu-
berculosis dogs at large in
Paris! Every one of those in
fected, preadamite compan-
ions of man, fit only for the Stone Age
Of human culture. is a possible source
for the spread of the great white
French metropolis!
This alarming statement is based
upon a report just made to the Ma
tonal Academy of Medicine by Pro-
fessor Cadot of the veterinary school
of Abort.
It is another convincing reason why
dogs should be banshed from all cen
tiers of human population. A tubercu-
losis dog may be as dangerous as
malaria bearing mosquito. and even
more so. The peril to children is es-
pecially great, according to Professor
Cadiot, and DR.. Petit. because of their
tendency to pet the infected animals,
taking them in their arms. catching
their breath, and even allowing them
TO lick their faces.
Cats are equally dangerous, for they,
100, are frequently injected Win tuOeT-
culosis in its many concealed forms
These animals contract the disease,
Professor CadiOt says, from human
sources-through the digestive tract
Dogs and cats devour all sorts of sub
stances. and it has been observed that
the pets of Consumptive patients al
most invariably are affected by tuber-
oulosis, Dogs that haunt restaurants,
cafes, saloons, drinking places and
similar resorts seldom escape infec
ton, and they they are ready to spread
it to human beings with whom they
come in contact.
Paris contains the astonishing can
inc population of 100000, From to
per cent of these useless dogs carry
the seeds of tuberculosis about with
them wherever they go. This plague.
the same authorities declare. is not
confined to Paris, but is proportionate-
ly present in every city and town
where dogs abound. 1t is not possible
to make medical survey of all the
canine population of a city, and thou
sands of dangerous cases may easily
exist without detection. The only safe
ty consists in abolishing these utterly
useless animals from all cities.
1t is we'll to reflect that this ten
dency of dogs to contract tuberculosis,
and then pass it on to human beings,
is not confined to any climate, but ex-
lists wherever dogs and men live to-
gether. Canine tuberculosis is, with
out doubt, as common in America as
IN France. It is far greater danger

this-your health will break down. If
you think a reconciliation is hopeless
then you must try TO put him out of
your life" Though as she spoke Helen
felt the weakness and futili2y of her
words
THE ORDEAL AT THE PHONE.
And Katherine did not even notice
them She had risen from the couch
and was walking feverishly up and
down the room. Suddenly she stopped
before the phone.
Shall | call him up now while you
are here?" her voice was tense, her
eyes brilliant with excitement. Shall
-" Her hand was on the receiver
/ "Oh, don't know what to say If
knew I might advise you, but as it is
I can't"
: Il will will" cxcitedly Things
can't be worse than they are" Her
hand trembled as she took down the
receiver.
"Hello!"
Helen was watching her, her heart
beating in her throat. But Katherine
threw up the receiver and fell sobbing
in a chair
Il can't can't-I'm afraid"
Listen Katherine" Helen was de-
termined now. You are going to put
on your things and come home with
me and stay all night You are in no
condition to be left alone
And in spite of all protests, Helen
finally had her way. She helped Kath-
crime dress and in half an hour taxi
cab whirled them home.
Helen got out a warm dressing
gown which she had Katherine put on
Then she brought a cup of tea and
made her comfortable on a couch in
the nursery.
IF you could only sleep for a little
while before your dinner-Won't you
try"
And Katherine, who was worn out
with her emotions and her sleepless
night, did fall asleep
When Warren came home she was
still sleeping. Helen met him in the
hall with whispered explanations
Then don't wake her for dinner"
he said The rest will help her far
more than anything else"
So they closed the nursery door and
were careful not to disturb her. AS
they were going in to dinner Helen
suddenly put her arm about Warren
and asked impulsively:
"Oh dear, you DO love me, don't
you? We are happy and secure in our
home, aren't we?
why what's the matter? Has Kath-
crime upset you, too"
"Oh, | don't know, but if anything
should ever happen-if We should ev-
er be separated-I'm afraid Id suffer
just the way she does"
He laughed indulgently. What a /
foolish little woman you are. I'm not
considering leaving you-at least not
yet.
"Oh, don't joke about it, dear-it's
far too serious"
"All right, Kitten, we won't" And
STOPPING over, he kissed her with I'M
usual tenderness.

You walk-and your stride is the
