I think he said its main trouble was dermidectfo mange, but the dog looked worse than that. It was just a discouraged., quies- oont rag of mixed white hair and bare skin, with little red volcanoes in the eiltrtace which contained evil -looking tiny worma.

These articles are appear- ing weekly In our columna, Dog Lovers Watch Your Pets Now Your dog requires more care in Bum- mer than at any other time of the Year, declares Samos Matheson, the blind dog expert. During the rigours of winter and the uncertainties of spring our own excttreiene on foot have been curtailed, and tile dog has become fat and sluggish. A. summer day suggests a tons walla, and It would be unthinkable to leave the clog at home. In, ninety -nitre cases out of a hundred, however, it would be better to do so, The dog Is unpre- pared, his muscles are flat, his wind is wrong, and his heart may be so much impeded with fat that the long walk which is supposed to be for his benefit may even lead -to his death. Before undertaking long eountr' rambles the dog should have graded exercise. He should be let loose on open spaces, but never allowed to gal, top madly for more than a very few moments at a time. Milk Diet for "Slimming." - Immediately he begins to get his tongue out he should be recalled and put on a lead and made to walk obedi- ently at hesl, Undue exercise after inaction is lifeductive et many canine ailments, among them skin trouble. The dog is a non -perspiring animal, and what perspiring animals can get rid of through the pores.the dog has to discharge - through the nose and mouth. If too much effort is brought to bear upon these, the excess is dealt with by'the skirl in the form of what, for lack of a better term, we call "eczema."' To reduce- fat a clog should be put on a milk diet. Milk is a perfect food, and it is possible fora -dog to live on it alone, He will thea get thin, But it intik be givea in addition to the usual diet he will become fatter. A meat ration only will -also reduce fat. Some dogs eat more than others, but, roughly speaking, a "dog's ration for the day should weigh half an ounce to each pound of his own weight. Wire-haired species should be strip- ped at thisseason if carrying,an ex - ease of coat, A dog has two coats, the under -coat, which iceetis' him warm, and the top coat, which sheds the: wet. In wire-haired dogs kept under arti- ficial conditions this top coat does not, cast freely and should be removed. If it remains there is -no free passage,, of air to the skin. ' . Cleaning Ftdo With Flour The removal of the dead hair odea stens no suffering, It just slips out, But itis Well tohave it done by an expert. Pleas and insects can be picked up. from treshuiown grass, and the- cleau- est of dogs may fail victim to these pests. Oil of 'sassafras rubbed into the coat will remove any -4 umber very nuiekly. Washing is useless, Wash a dog as seldom as possible, and be very'care- ful .about tieing carbolic disinfectant.' A -dog can be' poisoned by absorption through the skin, White dogs can be thordugirly cleaned by the use of hot flour.. i "We are growing out of this worship, ' or material .possessions; It 13 110 long - or a',edistinetioh to bo rich."-1-Ienry Ford.

According to Baton Max von Oppenheim, a not- ed German archaeologist and student of Subarean-Hittite culture, now in the United States to study recent discoveries made at TJr of the Chat- dees, the artltacta of Telt-Hataf indi- cate a civilization older than any found in Mesopotamia, Mesopotamlan Discoveries The- archaeological discoveries were made in Upper Mesopotamia on the alte 01 tate ancient city- of -Tell-Halal and now repose in the Baron's museum In Berlin, whore they are now being studied ,by schol- ars. According to the Baron, Tell- Haiaf thrived about 3500 13.0„ and therefore the Subarean race which built it antedated the Sumerians at Ur, Baron von • Oppenheim betteves that his- discoveries establish a now and hitherto unsuspected link be- tween the Egyptian and Subarean civilizations, for "the Icings of Tell. Hata sent four Princesses to Egypt, all 09 whom became Queens, one the aunt of • Tut -ankh -Amon," He ascribes much of the culture Corn- erly attributed to the I11111tes to the Subareans. "Tell -Halal is slowly gluing up its secrets," said Baroit von Oppenhelm. "For q long time we Stave been gale- to that part of the Mesopotamia desert where Tell -Halal is situated and ler a long time we have known there wits important archaeological material there. As early es 1839 the mound was marked out for in- vestigation but St was not until 1911. that we J egan to dig. We were ht- terrupted by the war and did not sent another expedition until 1927, after Germany had joined the Lea- gue of Nations. The result of our 1927-29 excavations have been as- tonishing. "Tell -Halal must have been a gar- den spot in the Old days. It is the centre 09 a group of 'oases watered by hundreds of springs, Lying in the midst of a desert waste, it was an ideal site for a great city. WJiere could those old Subarean kings have found a more logical place to locate their capital, erect their enormous temples, and stone chambers for titair gods? The city became the centre of a civilization that spread over outer parts of the Near East, In the east -there have been only three original and independent civ- ilizations: the, Egyptian, the old Babylonian or Sumerian, and the Subarean, whose centre was Tell. Hala,f: • , "The Subarean art, such as we found in the Tell-IIalaf area, has heretofore beengenerally referred to as Hittite, because we knew only the more recent stone carvings which have been attributes to Hittite art- Iats. But these Hittites are Indo - German intruders from the north to Asia Minor and Syria, who carate ohly in the second miltennient to this Part of the world. ` "Through my discoverles at Tell- Hataf it was apparent that the ,Sttb- arean 'culture and art went back to, the third `miller n1um, possibly to 4,500 B.C." ? • • Dating by Pottery.

Mr. Woolley of the University of Pennsylvania found similar pottery at Ur in Lower Mes- opotamia where he Is excavating be- low the Sumearlan stratum, Ur is a long distance from Tell-Halaf, and the Sumerian, art found there is not the same as our art. The two aro independent of each other." It was not until 1911 that the first archaeological expedition discovered the alto of Tell-Ralaf; for there had been drama and secrecy about the burled city. Only because the Bar- on spoke fluent Arable dld'he hap - pea to hear a tale being whispered in the desert about the Bedouin who, digghig a grave for his 'old father, came on a winged monster and oth- er queer animals which he hastily covered up and lied. The next year came the plague and a pest of locusts, convincing' the Bedouins that the winged monsters had sent the scourge. Only after much recon- noitering was the site of the desert- ed city disclosed. Superficial dtg- gings at once uncovered an exten- sive area rich ht sculptured images, set in what was later found to be a temple. A Ninety -Foot Excavation "Digging one foot down we began to discover interesting relies, but it was only after we had dug ninety feet that the great temple -palace stood revealed," said Baron von Op- penheim. "Around the wade of the temple on blocks of atone were carved in bold relief what aright be called a historical procession of ani- nets, birds, winged monsters, hu- man figures, chosen as appropriate symbols by early Subarean sculptors to adorn their halls of state. Ono group displayed au antmats' orches- tra, a lion Wtilt a harp, a donkey singing, other , animals dancing, There wore hunting scenes, and bat- tles royal between beasts of the for- ests, between birds, scorpions and griffins, Whore did the artists get their designs and models? They were probably symbolical, some imaginative. others representing scenelt in the every -day life of the times, "Practically all the stone statuary was 09 basalt, a bard, dark, volcanle stone most of it was remarkable for its gigantic dimensions, The three great gods, among the largest relics unearthed, were eacil twenty feet high. The flint, known as Wird of heaven and earth, rain and weather, stands by itis side on . the back of a Bonen; and close beside them is their child, the son god with a lion beneath its feet." English.
