Imaginary IIydrophobia.

In "a very interesting little pamphlet
sent out 10 taa press by the American
Anti Nivsection Souie;y, entitled "Hy-
urophoDia as ~ Simulated Disease"
much convincing evidence is collected as
to the extreme rarity of cases of hydro
phobia In either dogs or human beings.
Tie contention is made that the con-
dTlnn OF hySteical excitement in man
described by newspapers as hydrophobia
Is merely series of symptoms, due
usually to dread of the disease, such
dread being caused by realistic reports
acting upon the Imagination of persons
scratched or bitten by animals suspected
of rabies"
some iemarkable testimony is intro.
duced as 10 the infrcqucncy of uuthen-
t!cated cases. one physician, VINO had
been searching for the disease in man or
ahH'nal during n practice of 20 years,
wroie IN January OF this ye.re' that he ha d
never hau real case OF hydrophobia.
In the Philadelphia dog pond. where dur
ing the last % years about 1870. 900 dogs
nave been handled, and the catchers and
Keepers are often bitten, there has not
been a single case OF hydrophobia. A
lew years ago the record of the London
hospital showed EGGS patients treated
VINO had been bitten by dogs ST.
Eeorse,S Hospital. London. recorded
4'Ueo- Yet in neither instance was there
any hydrophobia. OF the same nature is
the testimony of DR. Charles w. Dulles
OF me University Of Pennsylvania. who
mas it is claimed, investigated personal.
~ or by correspondence. every case of
hydrophobia reported in taEs country for
sixteen years. He says: After sixteen
years OF investigation, l have failed 10
ind a single case OF hydrophobia that
can be conclusively proven to have re.
suited from the bite of dog or anv
ether cause" Similar statements afn
made by a number of physicians and
medical professors of the city OF Ph!la-
dclphia.-BaNimore News.
