CANINES POSSESS
VOCABULARY, SAYS
KENNEL AUTHORITY
Dogs can speak and reason, according to an article, by Henry Charles
Suter, in the American Kennel Gazette.
"The fact that mankind alone possesses the power of consequential
thought," writes Mr. Suter, "is a
pleasing, popular, but to say the
least, a somewhat presumptions notion. The truth is that animals can
be taught. Certainly, dogs can be
trained, as anybody knows. But they
also can learn much through their
own reasoning faculties and by experience and observation.
"It is not instinct alone that
teaches a dog how a door may be
opened by the simple raising of a
latch, or is It mere instinct that
makes a dog measure time. Does not
a domesticated dog, in a methodical
family, accommodate himself to the
habits not only of the household but
of the individual members of it with
most persistent precision?"
Dogs' understanding and use of
speech is explained as follows:
"There can be no question that
dogs, although they are unable to
respond similarly, can understand
many words and phrases of human
speech. Clearly, It must be accounted to some dogs that they possess a
considerable vocabulary, since many
a chance expression In an ordinary
conversation, brings an apparently
sleeping dog to animated attention.
"Since dogs can understand human speech, it must be conceded, in
a lesser degree, that we understand
theirs. For to the practiced ear, the
barking, even of an unseen dog, carries, in the variations of tone and
tempo, many diverse significances.
Surely in the expressions of welcome, fear, anger, menace, defiance,
warning, enjoyment, there are distinct and different tones.
"Were our hearing powers developed to the possibilities of the
clog, probably we should realize that
the canine language is far more
flexible and expressive than we suppose."

are taking for the relief of headaches
is SAFE to use regularly is your
family doctor. Ask him particularly
about Genuine BAYER^ ASPIRIN.
/ He will tell you that before the
discovery of Bayer Aspirin most
"pain" remedies were advised
against by physicians as bad for the
stomach and, often, for the heart.
Which is food for thought if you
seek quick, safe relief.
Scientists rate Bayer Aspirin
among the fastest methods yet discovered for the relief of headaches
and the pains of rheumatism, neuritis and neuralgia. And the experience of millions of users has proved
it safe for the average person to use
regularly. In your own interest remember this.
You can get Genuine Bayer
Aspirin at any drug store — simply
by asking for it by its full name,
BAYER ASPIRIN. Make it a
point to do this — and see that you
get what you want.

An Arizona ranger naturalist,
whose ingenuity led him to employ
sirup to attract ants as food for
horned toads In an exhibit at Petrified Forest National monument, was
obliged to give individual baths to
his specimens, for his pains. The
horned toads' appetites were restored
by the tempting delicacy, as the
ranger had planned, but he figured
without the Arizona sun and its effects on the sirup. In a short time
lie found his exhibit held fast in the
blue-like solution. A warm water
bath, and a well-sanded receptacle
where they might remove the sirup
by burrowing into the dirt, restored
the toads to normal condition.
