SAYS :DOGS BETTER BEHAVED
THAN SOME HUMAN BEINGS
—pear AIM Linde -14z I slaver
read our cgtwnu;j happened
to gl ee_ at it the other day
While apping the garbage.
I scovered tli t you don't
appy a of dogs inihotele, which
didn't surprise rate; but I was
dumbfounded by the stupidity of
Tour argument. ,
You said u had never been
biyou
tten by a guest in an elevator
or kept fawake at night by a per-
son who barked in the next room.
Well, I have never bee bitten
by a guest in an elevator either,
but I have been pinched, kicked,.
stepped' on, shoved, poked in the
eye and niteover the head. Does
that count?
r travel a great deal, both in
the U.S. and abroad. I wish I.
-ham a dollar `for every hour,' of
Sleep I have missed because
People - were -quarrelling • iirtlre
next room, I have •lost count'
of the nights I have been kept
up •by roaring drunks on con.
vention holiday. who think it is
cute to ' go banging on every
door on the floor. And then, of
course, There is the inevitable
snorer who" must have himself
,hooked tip to a load speaker
system.
So please don'pt talk any mure
, about dogs versus people. Dogs
are far better behaved both at
home and when traveling. --A
Hound's Best Friend.
Dear "Friend: I don't ex-
pect you to see this reply,
unless o: course yoe happen
to be wrapping more gar-
bage, but I am hoping.
Since you rate dogs higher
than people, I suggest that the
next time you travel you stay
ata kennel.

Deer Ann Landers: Our 15.
year oTdsught�a si s two
evenings a week for a lovely'
faxrillyi;: ' "tie '°cbtil dreri are two
and three y -ears of age. The
.parents are highly respected in
aur neighborhood.
Last week I learned that the
children are given paregoric
4 nearly every day. They get pare.
goric for colds, restlessness or
just to put them to sleep. Be.
fore the mother left Iasi Satur.
day eveine. she told soy daughter
to give each child a teaspoon
of paregoric at bedtiln ^ "if they
seem cranky," -My daughter call-
ed and wanted to know if she
should .do it. i teId 'her "no."
The following day I telephoned•
the mother and' asked if sheknew
what she was doing. She eeplied,
"I Have taken paregoric nearly
every day for years,and it has

I ata not going to . allow our °
b.
•- daughter- to baby sit for these
people unless you tell me it is
all right. I'm afraid the children
will become drug addicts arid I
don't waist my daughter to be a
party to it. Please -set me straight
if I am wrong. I would ask our
family doctor about this but I'd
feei foolish,—Worried.
Dear Worried: I asked a
doctor and didn't feel onebit
foolish. He told me paregoric
has an opium base, but it
would take a great deal more
than a teaspoon a day topro.
duce addiction. He certainly
woald NOT prescribe it for
regular use by children.
Paregoric can be obtained
without a prescription. Iri
most states, however; the
person who buys paregoric
must register his name with
the druggist. My medical
consultant did not feel you
should prohibit you- Baugh.
