Saved From Rabies by P.steur

A few weeks ago sixteen persons were
bitten by one mad dog in Borgherout. a
suburb of Antwerp. 1t was not known
that the dog was mad. A few days after,
however, veterinary pronounced the
animal rabid. The wounds had already
cicatrized. so that the cases were beyond
ordinary control. All We're ordered to the
France. Now. while a woman OF fifty.
living at Antwerp, who was bitten at
about the same time, has died in agony.
the victims of the Borgherout case have
been pronounced cured and have returned
home. The municipalities in Belgium
make a rule of sending such victims to
Lille at the exnense of the city, and this
recent triumph of medical science DEM
onstrates the necessity for establishing "A
similar institute in every country within
a reasonable journey from all centers. In
fairly reasonable cases the Lille treat
ment lasts twenty-one days. More than
200 cases are treated annually at the in
stitute.

England Possesses Several and They DO
n Thriving Business.

Thriving business.
Warwickshire, England, possesses
the chief of a class of anomalies of
which up-to-date America can exhibit
no par. 1t is nothing more nor less
than a minister of the gospel who
openly runs a public house. The Es-
tablished church is far from being tee
total in its doctrines, as teetotalism,
even among the more rigorous of the
sects, has never been popular in Eng
land. The public house came into the
possession of the parish Of which Rev.
Osbert Mordaunt, the gentleman in
question, was the rector, through the
will of an eccentric old miser who,
perhaps. as much in irony as good
faith, left it to the vestry in charge for
the benefit of the poor of the parish.
When this was made public the rever-
end gentleman consulted several tenn
perance reformers, who, of course. ad
vised him to sell Immediately. The
majority of the vestry, however, were
in favor of running the place on
equitable terms, and devoting the pro-
eeeds to the purpose prescribed. The
result has been successful beyond ex-
pectation, an appreciable income be-
ing each year derived for clothing,
coal. etc. The principles are as fol-
lows: l. The sale of pure beer. 2.

OF this place several English ministers
have taken out licenses on the same
plan. and in each instance are reaping
a harvest for their parish poor.

The assertion that Herr Rose protested

that there--was a pressing demand for

that there would be an additional ex-

be easily cared for by an increased tax
levy.
Assurance We're given that the tax levy
would be-increased only three-fourths of

The school board also gave assurances
that the proceeds of the bond sale would
be devoted only to the erection and fur
