Curious Animal Breeds and Oddities Reported
A Cincinnati fire company notes a Newfoundland dog credited with saving several firemen by climbing a three story ladder. A Norwich area cat steals clothes-pins and returns many from neighbors’ yards, totaling twenty-eight dozen in three months.

Fragmented ad copy hints at product and guidance
