A WOMAN'S VOICE.
1t Was Lost and Then Recovered in a Very
Remarkable Manner.

Remarkable Manner.
"Several months ago" said physician at
tached to one OF New York's hospitals, to a
New York Sun reporter, ga women came here
for treatment. She belonged in New Jersey
and explained that she had lost her voice.
She could not talk above whisper, and, as
her case was peculiar, l invited her to call at
my private office, where could treat her with
care than in the crowd at the hospital. gilmore
course, L charged her nothing.
After she had called several times learned
that she was deceiying US 1t makes no diff
ference 10 Us where patient comes from,
provided he or she is too poor TO pay q doc
tor, but when l heard that she had a profit
able stationery business in a New Jersey
town and could afford 10 pay for treatment, L
was angry. and when | saw her again | up
braided her very severely. She denied the
allegation, and said that while it was true
that she had a store. her income was not suffi-
cient to pay her expenses, and she could not
pay n doctor.
After she left my office she went directly
10 the hospital. The physician who happened
to be in charge knew of her case, and thought
he would have a little fun with her. She did
not tell hin of my talk with her. and pre-
tended that she had not seen me. He looked
into her throat, and with an air of wisdom
said
'Ah. it is ripe for an operation. We will
fix that You will be cured in very few
minutes
Then he took tube, wrapped little cot
ton around it. and put it down her throat.
When he removed it he looked at it with an
air of great satisfaction. and said: There. it
is just as l thought. The obstruction is re-
moved, and you are ali right now. The only
thing is YOU must try to speak very loudly.
If you don't the trouble will return.
''She Immediately opened her lungs, and
let out her voice in a way that made the walls
ring. She went away very happy, and few
days later wrote TO this doctor to say that he
had cured her, and that the stuff he had put
in her throat had had remarkable results.
She thought that il might be well for her to
have little more of the same treatment, and
said that ii he would not charge her more
than a dollar a visit she would call on him at
his office. We had good laugh over that
But the question which still remains unde-
cided is. whether her voice was restored by
my scolding or his fooling. OF course all tina t
was the matter with her was hysteria.

DON'T KILL THE DOG.
A Physicians Advice TO Persons Who Have
the Misfortune 10 BE Birten.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch

the Misfortune 10 BE Birten.
from the Pittsburg Dispatchl
It will surprise many people to know that
hardly one in fifty or seventy-hve Of the dogs
reported TO be mad is mad, and yet that Is
what well-known Pittsburg physician said
last night. He went further and said that
there had been but one genuine case OF hydro
phobia in Pittsburg in several years.
Impress this upon people who have been
bitten by a supposed mad dog-don't kill the
dog. II is about the worst thing that can be
done, for il gives no chance 10 the victim Bit
ten TO know whether he was bitten by a mad
dog or not. The dog should be carefully
penned up. and after time killed. Then let
a section Of his spinal cord be submitted to a
competent person, and he will soon tell
whether the dog had rabies or not.
when person is bitten by dog the first
thing TO do is to suck the blood out of the
wound and with it the virus il the dog has
rabies. But care must be taken that there be
no cuts on the lips or in the mouth. Where
the dogs teeth have had TO 20 through cloth
ing before reaching the flesh the chances are
better, for the poisonous saliva would likely
be taken OF in penetrating the cloth. After
the blood has been sucked out a physician
should he consulted and cauterization re-
sorted 10. II no physician be near the wound

be obtained. Under the old methods of cur

into the system there could really be no cure
The case was fatal. Pasteur's 'attenuated
virus plan, from the results set forth, seems
10 be a great benefit. But don't kill the dog. "
A recent article in a medical review saws
that Tizzoni and Centanni say they cannot
only confer immunity from the bites of dogs
afflicted with rabies, but can cure hydrophoEia

SECRET OF EARLY RISING.
1t Is Largely a Matter OF Habit, According
10 Well.known Men.

II Is Largely a Matter OF Habit, According
10 Well.known Men.
A question that puzzles many business men
who lead a regular life is how other men,
whose occupations and inclinations keep
them awake late at night, are able to be up
and about in the morning at almost the same
hour as ordinary persons. This refers more
especially to politicians. actors, and news
paper men. They may be seen about town
long after the average citizen is abed, but
somehow they are stirring again at just the
same hour as the man who lives by system.
OF course, many Of them have to resort TO ex-
traordinary measures TO get up, but the chief
secret for regular rising seems 10 bein acquir-
ing habit Of rising at a certain hour every
morning and living up TO il.
Henry Irving, the actor. was accustomed
while IN this country TO remain awake for
several hours after the evenings performance,
and Vet he was always astir by O'Clock in
the morning and out for his walk. He told a
friend that he got used TO awaking at n regu-
Jar hour in the morning when youth and
the habit clung TO him even when he had to
be up o'nigh;s.
Henry Clews. the banker. cannot be classed
among those who are up late at night but he
is known as an early riser, and is at his Office
every morning AT O'Clock.
CANNOT remember WltD 0dQ TO De callc0
in the morning said Mr. Clews. For years
] have got out of bed at o'clock almost to
the minute, without a call and l believe it is
all matter of system. You see. the human
being is like watch-it must be wound up
and will run for a certain time, when there
must be a new force TO start it again. Sleep
is the relief force OF the human being and
in order TO run right, this force must be dis
tribUted as regularly as the watch is wound
] find that man can wake himself at any
hour without assistance, II he will only accus-
tom himself TO il.
Superintendent Byrnes is another believer
in systematic awakening. Although he is
generally considered cool and impassive he
is really OF highly nervous temperament
be has naturally been kept up late at night
on many occasions by his peculiar calling:
but no matter how late he retires he is awake
at a certain hour.
MY life as policeman has accustomed me
TO regular rising, although all policemen are
generally called when II is time for them 10
begin their duty he said when asked the
secret Of his early rising. ''If you will ask
the doormen who call the policemen at regu-
lar hours how the men get up you will find
that, although they seem to be in the midst OF
a sound sleep, they will awaken at the sched-
uled hours in nine cases out OF ten. New
York sun.

NO RANK RECOGNIZED.
In the London Pioneer Club Women Are
known by Numbers.

In the Pioneer Club for Women. to which
all the advanced women belong, there is
simple device for leyeling all the members,
irrespective of their rank and title. Members
are known by numbers instead of names. On
joining each woman is given a number, based
on the order of her me mbership. and 10 some
extent she is known by that number, although
addressing person by her name is not pro-
hibited. But you viii hear such remarks as:
'Oh! Miss 6.22S. have you met Mrs. 3.946?
She is an intimate friend OF No. 2,903, whom
you saw at Mrs. 6S. .224's house,
Now No. 2,903 may be a countess or duch-
ess, but. being an advanced woman, she is
not vain of her worldly position and would
much rather be known by the numerals than
by her title This picture of the Pioneer Club
method may be a little oyerdrawn, but it
shows what the idea of the members is in
each adopting her number.

Household Novelties in France.

Miss Parloa has found at a food exhibition
in Paris new invention of which she highly
approves, and that is a soup ladle that takes
up bouillon or other soups without particle
of grease The little thing costs only %
cents, and is thus described in Good House.
keeping: son the outside of the ladle there is
a tube which begins near the bottom and
enters the handle an inch from the top. The
ladle is slowly put into the bouillon, but not
far enough to make it flow over the top.
1.-THE bottom of the tube is below the grease
line and the soup flows through it into the
ladle free from sediment or grease. Such an
invention is likely to have wide apprecia-
tion by housewives in the land of soups and
sauces." Another curious thing seen by Miss
Parloa was ice cream frozen without ice. In
stead a chemical salt was used with water.
The particular advantage of this discovery
will be in those places where ice is not to be

Blossom Timenieces.

1t is hard to recognize the fashionable
watch these days. Fashion has most success
fully obscured its identity. Watches are hid
den beneath enameled blossoms or they ap-
pear as glistening jeweled balls. The latest
design for a chatelaine watch looks more like
dusky pansy than timepiece The flower
is exquisitely enamelsd and is fastened TO the
gown beneath "a green stem. The pansy forms
the case of the watch. Another novelty
shows tiny watch ticking away in the heart
of pink enamel rose. Gold cases are quite
out of date for the watch of fashion. Dark
blue enamel forms a favorite case. with a
crescent of Diamonds giistening from its cen i.

Selling Beer by the Pound.
from tha Courier-.Iournal I

"What do you think of getting pound
and a quarter of beer Tor niekel?" said a
man yesterday. "Well, out in the southern
part of the city they sell beer in this way alto
gether, especially at the little German gro
ceries with a saloon annex. When people
come into the place for pitcher of beer the
vessel is set on scales and weighed. Then
the customer is asked if he wants lager or
common beer. If he wants five cents worth
of the first he gets pound and quarter
but If he wants common beer he gets a
pound and three-quarters. The dealer
saw did not know how the custom of weig b.
ing beer originated. The stand has been
handed down for several generations, apd

The First woman's Rights Convention.

The earliest woman's rights convention
was held at Seneca Falls, Elizabeth Cady
Stanton, Frederick Douglass, and Amelia
Boomer, Of Bloomer costume fame, being the
originator5. The second was held in Roch-
ester in l848. And from these small begin
niEgs the most radical changes OF thought
and feeling about woman and her sphere
have gradually come about, changes which
only the ultra-conservative can regret. for we
have slowly but surely learned that it is not
what woman does, but the way in whien she
does it that makes her admirable or other
wise.
