Rabies. or hydrophobia, Is caused by
the Introduction into the blood of . spe-i
cial poison derived from the mouth Of.
an animal suffering from the same dis
ease. This animal Is commonly dog,
although cats, wolves, skunks and other
animals may become affected.
Hydrophobia in man differs little
In its course and symptoms from hydro
phobia In animals. The first stages
Of the disease are marked by vague
restlessness, and strong irrltability and
excitabillty. The well-known dread
of water. sensItiveness to light and
sound, sleeplessness, frothing at the
mouth, and spasms follow In rapid sue
cession. Exhaustion Is the inevitable
result of this alarming train of evils.
and thus the sufferer Is relieved from
his agonles. Signs OF hydrophobia rare
ly develop under four weeks, and
sometimes year may elapse after tho
original injury. The proportion of tina
bitten cases which eventually succumb
Is variously estimated, from one In two
to one in twenty.
Since the recently inaugurated Pas
teur treatment offers the only positive
escape from this terrible malady, and
siAce also 1t Is necessary to inOculate
the system thoroughly with the rem
edy within two or three weeks Of the
time Of the bite at the longest, 1t In
customary to treat every case with
equal care. The Pasteur method con-
sists in injecting a concentrated hydro
phobia poison, very much as vaccine
virus is injected for the prevention Of
smallpox. 1t Is believed by many that
immediate cauterization of the injured
part greatly lessons the chances of sub
sequent trouble, and this should always
be done by way Of precautiOn.
