A prominent curb broker, wishing

GENTLY recovered from the shock, with

sudden change In price.
"Why, bought this hardly three

DOGS ONCE CALLED vERMIM
Only In Comparatively Recent Years
Have They Received Recognition
Under English Laws.

Our laws regarding dog bites, which
Judge Cluer declares to be full Of
anomalies, are all Of modern date,
says Tit-Bits.
There seems to be no reference to
dogs In any law passed before the
accession Of Queen Victoria. In q case
heard by Mr.. Justice Eliot in 1885 1t
was ruled that dogs were vermin. and
for that reason the church would not
degrade itself by taking tithes Of
them. Nor was a dog the subject Of
larceny at common law, the ruling be-
ing that "a man shall not hang for a
dog"
Parliament first began to notice dogs
In 1888, by passing a statute increas-
Ing "the resources Of civilization"
against the lawless doings Of irish
ours.
Ten years later, dog fighting, bull
batting and bear batting were prohib-
tied by parliament. Between 1854 and
1852 no fewer than eight statutes were
passed regulating the condition and
social status Of the dog, one Of which
placed him In a position Of a tax
payer. In addition to these which
applied throughout the United King
dom-a special act was framed to
curb the sheep-worrying propensities
Of dogs in Scotland.
