CATS AND DOGS.

II any man knows why there should
be tax on dogs and none on cats, let
MIN step forward and explain. Cats
spread disease a thousand times worse
than dogs. Cats climb trees and catch
birds while even a bird dog will do no
worse than point toward them. Cats
bite as often as dogs and they scratch
great deal more frequently. A black
cat crossing your path is bad luck and
you never give black dog a second
thought. There is no reason why dogs
should be Disseminated against. II
there is to be law imposing a tax on
dogs, there should be an amendment
that will include cats from the time
their eyes are open until they give d.
