Period of Quarantine
For Dogs Is Cut Down

Members of the board of agriculture
and forestry, at a meeting held last
week, adopted an amendment to Rule
s which provides that dogs arriving
here from countries where rabies are
known to exist shall be quarantined
for 120 days, or. may undergo treat
ment with a new serum introduced
here recently and remain in quaran-
tine for only 80 days after the com
pletion of the treatment.
Prior TO the amendment of Rule s
it was required that dogs brought
here should be ~quarantined for 100
days, no treatment being given. The
rule as amended will be sent to the
governor for his approval.
1t is explained hat the new serum
is not like the old method of innocu-
lation against rabies, as under the old
method 80 doses were administered.
Under the new treatment a mild form
Of rabies is set up IN the animal. 1t

NIckETY NIP STORIES
BY Miss A. w. Paul

Now Nickety Nip had to go and look
at the boys himself this month, for as
school was over for the summer they
were not in the usual spots, but bye
and bye he found them working away
quite buslly in a field, and he thought
it was a mighty good way of spending
a vacation, and as he knew that they
ought not to be interrupted at their
work, he skipped off again, and await
ed until they were finished work for
the day, when he got behind the fence
and trotted along lIstening to what
they were talking about.
Well, it was mostly of what they
were going to get for supper, which is
what most small boys of any nation
ality think quite a lot about, but after
a while one of them began to sing,
INT Nickety thought it would be kind
of nice if they learnt and understood
a little song he heard the children
singing nee when he was down in
the Philippines, and this was what it
was.
Did you know mosquitoes bring
Other things besides their sting?
oOlnelluleS when Jney Dlle, bHes ledNe
you
with malaria or with fever.
So, dry up all your stagnant places
Breeding places for all their races;
Keep your screen doors closed, and
fling
Defiance to Sir Skeeter's sting!
Let your slogan through the summer
Be to kill this wicked hummer!
Then he thought as they seemed to
like that one, he would give them an
other and this was:
Peter Pout, Peter Pout,
There's no fun when he's about,
Nc one likes to play with him,
For he always looks so grim.
Johnny Smile, Johnny Smile,
You can see his grin a mile,
Things are never dull or tame,
When our Johns i'm the game.
And by the time they had listened
to that one also they were at the end
of the road, 81 Nickety scuttled away
amongst the cane, but they knew who
had been singing for them to march
to, and called out alright Nickety,
we like those songs, and please sing
some more for us tomorrow night but
Nickety wouldn't promise to do that,
as he thought they ought not to have
too many at n time or they would
not be able to remember them all, but
later on he has quite a lot to teach
them.

The story centers around Frank
Cassilis, a wanderer, who returns once
a year to a spot on the bleak Scotch
coast to fulfill his word of honor TO
his arch enemy, Northmour. On the
occasion of one of these annual VS.

from a yacht with an old London
banker who is escaping with the abb
seconded funds of an Italian secret so

is the price of Northmour's assistance.
Through saving the life of Clara from
the quicksands that line the beach,
Cassilis becomes involved in their adj

happily.
