About Mad Dogs.

There are two distinct forms of canine
madness, one hydrsphobia, the other
distemper madness. The former is rare
>ud readily communicable to man.
DR.. E. P. Philpot, of the British Med
ical Association, has fully studied the
subject, and gives the following in regard
to the kinds Of madness:
A person bitten by hydrophobic dog
is more or less certain OF contagion, and
AS sure as the disease is contracted either
by man or by dog so sure must death
ensue from it. With regard to distemper
madness the case is quite different. A
person bitter by a dog that has this dis
ease suffers merely from the local effects
IF the bite, which effects are, OF course,
in proportion to the severity of the bite,
or simple lacerated wound, as it may be
termed; the dog, also, as a rule, recov-

of water. hites Of anv
madness the do, Nd or tbe
Of its fellows, gnaws at its andort
wall, eats straw, snaps at his att>
and foams violently at the mouth. =,
We often hear of persons being r.
Iieved after being bitten by mad dog
BY an application of a maidstone. This
no doubt is only in case of distemper
madness, when according to DR.. Philpot
The person was in no danger of contract
ng hydrophobia or losing his life.
As the hot weather is setting in and
he dog days approaching, precautionary
measures should be adopted by our city
authorities against the danger of any of
,ur citizens being bitten by mad dogs,
wen if the dog should only have dis
emper madness.
