drink of fresh water brings to
mind the odd fact that dog con-
fined to a kennel and given free
access to water will drink more
than dog rcnning about and given
the same opportunity to quench
his thirt.
Experiments have proven this
fact. Here's the explanation. Exer-
else uses up and eliminates certain
body waste products. A dog de-
prived of exercise instinctively de-
ponds on water to remove these
waste products and thus drinks
more.
DOGS AND BUDDHISM
Dogs, because OF their close as
ISOLATION with man through the
ages, have become a sacred SYM
Dol in the religion of ceftain peo-
plies. Buddhists, for instance, be-
lieve that animals are the reincar-
nation of humans who have sinhed
while living on earth. This fact a
few years ago saved the lives OF
innumerable dogs in China. A cam
pa;gn against stray dogs was start
ed by the city officials of. Kiangtu
and Changshu in Kiangsu Province
and, because of the city fathers
orders, the B.,ddhists became very
active in the dogs behalf.
In these two Chinese cities stray
dogs were collected by Buddhist
worshippers and placed in reser'
vations at the outskirts of the city
to prevent the local dog catcher:
from impounGing and executing
them. Every morning Buddhls
priests preached to the dogs in al
attempt to teach them not to be
come nuisances to the community
Dogs that were especially unrul,
were given Individual lectures b,
the highest priests. When do
was considered to have absorbed
the teachings OF the priests he wa
either placed in a private home o
turned at large. AT present Their
are over 1000 dogs in the reserva
| lions maintained by Buddhists il

A Dogs WILL TO LIVE

Early this spring I received
report Of dog living underground
without food or water for almost
three months. Before issuing the
details in this column I decided
little investigating was in order.
Before me are three affidavits
sworn to by three responsible peo-
pie. Here is the sotry they sub
stantiate:
A small Cocker Spaniel disap-
peared from its home near Muir
ray, Idaho, last September. Three
months later the dog returned
home. There was hardly hair on
his body and he was almost dead
from starvation. For weeks what
had happened to the dog was
neighborhood mystery. Then the
following facts were discovered:
The dog HAD fallen into an old
mine shaft nearly 20 feet deep. De-
termined to escape, the dog had
dug an inclined tunnel to the sur
face.
How he was able to live under
ground for almost three months
without food or water is still a
mystery. Perhaps enough rain wa
ter seeped down the shaft to
quench the animals thirst. At any
rate roots that protruded into the
tunnel were found to have been
well chewed and they might have
served as a little food. Today the
dog is well and happy-none the
worse for his narrowing experience
"a living example of the stamina
and will to live that every dog
possesses.
FEEDING AT THIS TIME OF
YEAR
The amour. of food a dog re-
quires depends upon the amount
of exercise Re receives. During
these hot summer days dogs lie
about more and consequently
don't need quite as much food as
during cooler weather when they
get more exercise.
Many dog owners believe that
dogs shouldn't be fed meat dur
ing the summer months. This is
wrong. Meat can and should be the
basis of any dogs diet either in
hot or cold weather. Feed less food
in summer, avoid sloppy and heat
ing foods and remember any dog
will appreciate a cooling drink al.
most as much as you do during
these hot days.

them - spattering the ledge face with gold
The stock had crashed, and the law had indicted
Tim Hardy. His protests that he had sold but a
fraction of his shares, proving that he himself had
believed in the new ledge, fell on deaf ears. THE
fraud was uncovered before Tim Hardy could un-
load, the district attorney said Tim had demanded
that Pete Grover be summoned as Witness but Pete
had disappeared Then it was that Tim had broken
out of Jail. The final blow to the stockholders had
come when the government ordered gold mines shut
down. to divert miners to critical materials needed
for the war.
JUDGE MELRosE called Tessie that afternoon. This
sort of case isn't in our line; but we can't let the
Marines down. Have you formed any opinions?"
None, except that Tim Hardy is on the spot"
Tessie answered. II had my secretary check on our
clients. One, man named Dravus. owns hundred
shares of the Whistling Marmot Mine. I've asked
him to authorize me to examine the company's
books"
Judge Melrose chuckled "You want to know who,
besides Tim Hardy unloaded stock, eh?'
"On the contrary i want to learn who bought
stock after the crash"
The Judge grinned This angle occurs to me-"
Tessie continued. Here we had young man of
fine local reputation, with gold mine needing devel-
opment money. Wasn't that perfect setup to attract
smoother"
TT has been my experience that snoothies do
smooth job" Judge Melrose said They cover their
tracks and leave others holding the sack"
My grandfather the revered founder of this law
firm stressed the importance of what he called trivia
ties" Tessie reminded him. The trivial things over
looked by master mind often lead to big discover
les As long as he lived Grandfather urged his partners
and law clerks to sift the triviates of case"
Don't know! Judge Melrose said. II one
Of his law clerks, you know"
HE next day Tesse called on Judson fremont, ex-
planning that she wished to check the Mine COM
panys books for one of her clients, Mr.. Dravus
fremont had Bank England solidity about him.
He sat solidly in his chair feet firmly planted under
his desk His few desk furnishings were heavy. A
heavy ring, on thick, strong finger, cleaned duly
Tessie thought: Mr.. fremont is not easily pushed
around nice poker face too, but the blue ice that
he calls eyes betray keen curiosity as to why I'm
checking the books N.Y. but he's wary bird.
The books always open for inspection by stock
holders or their lawyers, Miss Terry he said. AT
present. of course, the mine is shut down. The war;
you know We plan to open as soon as men avail
able"
When she had finished her examination of the
books, Tessie sad Everything is in order. notice
that you yourself have faith in the mine When other
stockholders were selling you were buying"
The mines record in the Eighties was good
enough for me-" MIR. fremont answered. Advise
