DISINHERITED, SKUNK FINDS GOOD HOME—Ontario
cities and towns have reported more skunks than usual
this summer, and of course wherever there are skunks
there is always danger of a special kind.. But Russell
Hafenbrak, Toronto, lias solved the problem of having his
skunk and having fun, too. He had Josephine "disinherit
ed”—cut off without a scent—and keeps her in the house
with him. Josephine seems to like the domestic life.

gunning for (non-drinking)

member greatly heartens the
liquor interests , . . They can
count on his taking a negative
