This Week’s Cover
- The trouble with painters is that they build up awful situations like this and then blithely start work on another cover, leaving the victims to get out of the mess, if possible. In this crisis, the dog will either chew the man for annoying his little master or decide he’s a friend and lick his mustache. Doctor Scott diagnoses the former and his prognosis is sinister. Painter Sargent says he doesn’t know what will happen, because the dog’s hair is so long he can’t see the expression in its eyes. Old-fashioned, pre-needle doctors were the smart ones; they just thought up some medicine and departed forthwith, leaving mother holding the spoon, the dog and the kicking patient. What this doctor should do is give the dog a shot first. Mild anesthetic.
