Dr. Paul Gibier, Pasteur's American
representative, tells what to do in the Au-
gust number of the Ladies' Home Journal
Ifyou are unfortunate enough to be bitten
by a dog, he says, lose no time in sending
for a physician. But the wound requires
instant attention. First, wash ii with clean
tepid water. If it is not readily obtainable.
clean water of any temperature will an

rives. If you should be so situated that a
physician cannot attend upon YOU, then
act:
After flushing out the wound with clean
water, apply, by means of a glass dropper a
powerful antiseptic. | regard peroxide of
hydrogen (medcnaD as the best compound
Don't cauterize. In my opinion it is a
needlessly painful operation, and is very sell
dom accomplished soon enough to prevent
the hydrophObc infection from taking
place.
Having applied the antiseptic peroxide
of hydrogen to the sore, take care not to
remove the white foam that will be gener-
ated. Let it remain until it disappears.
which will occur in a few minutes. This
being done, a compress of absorbent cotton.
soaked in the peroxide of hydrogen, should
be laid over the sore, with an over cover
ing of oiled silk.
Twice every day the wound should be
dressed in the same manner. with the eX-
ception that the peroxide of hydrogen, in
stead of being used full strength, should be
diluted, half and half, with clean water
tepid or filtered water being preferable.
The subsequent treatment depends upon
the condition of the dog that inflicted the
wound. Don't kill the animal unless it
shows evident symptoms of hydrophObia.
Have it placed securely ina safe place. If,
at the expiration of one week, or not more
than two weeks, it has not shown any alb
normal symptoms, the patient need not
fear
If on the contrary the animal sickens and
dies, the patient should be treated by the
Pasteur method as quickly as possible.
The sooner the better At the same time
the contents of the dogs stomach and
portion of its spinal marrow, in glycerine,
should be sent to the Pasteur Institute,
No. l7S West Tenth street, New York city,
where experiments may decide whether the
animal died with hydrOphObia or not
Should the animal have been shot or
otherwise killed, it is advisable that the
patient should submit at once to the Pas
teur treatment, for two reasons; first, be
cause it is harmless; second, because its
efficacy has been proved beyond doubt,
over fifteen thousand persons having been
inoculated since Pasteur's discovery.
In case the animal remains in good health,
it is unnecessary that the patient submit to
incubation.
