FEET FIDDLINGS
- BY Tod


Feet are the foundation Of man
The difference between man and men
are the numbr OF feet. Sometimes
feet are foot and sometimes two
feet. They are placed under the ex-
tremity OF the leg to serve as ballast.
Some men have more ballast than
they really need. They are used to
walk out. to wear out $14.OO shoes,
and to hold hands with your girl in
the show.
Feet are also used to grow cOrns.
They cannot be said to be of no COM
mercial value because they furnish
work for corn doctors and plaster
mills. 1t is often good idea to
bafhe your feet and be kind to them
as they are your best friends. They
are caapble Of getting you out Of
trouble almost as fast as your tongue
can get'yOu in.
There are all kinds Of feet. from
poetic feet to picked pigs feet. All
kinds Of animals have feet but wo-
men. They will swear sOlmenly that
neither one of theirs is foot. Feet
should never be mistaken for fea-
lures. Often one resembles the other
but In most cases they are widely
separated. If 1t is long way from
man to his feet, he is said to be
long legged. If 1t is short way
from man to his feet. he is sitting
down. A one legged man can't have
but one foot even If his foot is two
feet. and 1t can be said that no man
has more than two feet even If he Is
a six fOOter.

DROPPING WISCONSIN"

There was time when he was per-

he generally spoiled the scenes by
smirking and cutting antics intended
to attract attention which he seemed
to fear he could not otherwise attract.
Well, Mr.. Baker was not very heavy

DOGS ASSIST LONDON POLICE
WeIl-Trsined Animals Have seen
Found Of Great Help in Appre-
hension Of Criminals.

The present wave OF crime has given
an impetus in Great Britain 70 the
training OF dogs for police purposes.
Police dogs were used TO assist in
bringing the breaker Of laws 70 justice
before the word police was ever known.
Ia older DAYS bioodhounds were used
on the borders or Scotland in certain
districts infested by murderers and
robbers, and tax was laid on the in
habitants for maintaining them; also
there was a law in Scotland that who
ever denied entrance TO one OF these
dogs should be treated as an accessory
TO the crime.
The training Of these dogs calls for
large amount of patience. intelligence
and resource. far removed from the old
idea Of dog breaking. which was usual
Iy TO beat the animal mercilessly into
the observance Of few set rules.
1t is step by step in his daily lessons
that dog gradually becomes a track
er of criminals by their scent, pursues
escaping prisoners discovers missing
people, or finds suspected ones in con-
ceaIment.
He learns fearlessly TO seize and pull
down any aggressor, whether his mas
ter or himself be attacked, and TO do 1t
with the least possible damage. ceas-
ing at once when the enemy gives In.
The popular conception of the police
dog is wild, savage brute, which prob
ably accounts for the antipathy to his
use displayed in some quarters. and 1t
is well that the public should realize
that the properly trained dog is at all
times perfectly under control.

ONE THING THEY OVERLOOKED
British Military Authorities Forgot the

The marquis OF Harrington tells an
episode from the war days when the

TO a writer in the Halifax Chronicle.
Certain confidential information that
the military authorities wanted to keep
absolutely secret was sent round by
trusted couriers in locked dispatch
boxes, with elaborate precautions Of
signing and countersigning and check
ing every stage. No one below the
rank of major general was entrusted
with the knowledge. and even these
were bound by tremendous oaths Of
secrecy.
After n time IL was found that these
weighty documents, which were circu-
lated in printed form, We're being set
up by ordinary printers, who were I'M
