Show Dogs doomed to die in London do not suffer half as much as men who pay the extreme penalty. In the chemical death chamber of unclaimed curs, at Battersea, the dogs trot into the : tempting room, "lie down, curl themselves round and round, fall asleep," and so go to that bourne whence no four-footed traveler returns. This lethal chamber is ' filled with narcotic vapor produced by passing carbonic oxide over a surface of ' anaesthetic anaes-thetic mixture-composed of chloroform and bisulphide of carbon. |
