WASHING A DOG.
Some dogs dislike having a bat]i and they will struggle a great deal. At such times it is a good plan to hold up one of the dog’s front paws. He will then be so occupied in balancing himself that he will not try to get out of the bath. After doing this a few times the dog will get into the habit of keeping still in the bath. Another thing to remember is that the dog’s head and ears should not be wetted until the last. Even a little water on these parts will make a dog begin to shake himself and then there is not much more peace. The inspector was examining a class of infants in a Yorkshire school. “ Who lived in the Garden of Eden?” he asked. Many hands were raised, and the boy to whom the inspector pointed replied, “ Adam.” “ Right,” said the inspector. ” But there was someone else. Who was that?” “ Please, sir, Adam’s missis.”
