i “Paddy” Fallon Loses Dog
But Not His Angora
SOUTH AMIIOY. Oct. 6:—Patrick
F. Fallon, of this city, one of the
three Democratic candidates foi
freeholder, is the possessor of whal
he believes will be a lucky mascol
at the coming election—namely, a
camouflaged hound dog. This ani
mal is a beautiful study in red anil
green, its tail in particular, which
ha.s alternating stripes of red and
green, being of the variety seldom
seen in this section. The how and
wherefore of "Paddy's" freak dog
make up a long story, but this is the
way it is generally told.
Celebrating his nomination he
purchased a nne hound last week
and early Monday morning set out
with his new acquisition t.o get him
arcustomed to the woods. After an
hour's tramp through the woods the
dog disappeared and no trace of him
could be found by its new owner.
The woods were hunted for the miss
ing canine but with no success.
"Paddy” had given up all hopes
of ever seeing the dog again when
lo and behold something crawled
through a hole in the backyard fence
and there was his long lost hound.
But what a difference! Instead of
the glossy coated, proud hound of a
few days ago there stood before the
local politician a poor, forlorn, dis
gusted dog ip whose fur had been
splashed red and green paint. Fal
lon is at a loss to know whether the
futurist artist who did the painting
did it knowing that the dog belong
ed to him or whether the painting
was done by someone who just
wanted to take out his spite on
■ omebody and picked the dog.
At any rate "Paddy" is a believer
in good and had omens and figures
that he will whitewash his oppo
nents in November in a manner
similar to that in which the paint
was applied to his dog.

Making Extraordinary
Mileage a Certainty -
Car Owners want more rubber on the tread where the wear is
hardest; more gum between cord plies to perfect a resilient and
powerful carcass. And they want a scientifically constructed Non
Skid tread with all angles and contacts to resist skidding and give
sure traction. Firestone Cord Tires have met these demands of
the car owners.
