IL is rather remarkable that Edin-
burgh is still discussing the question
whether II shall have Sunday street
cars. This will be one OF the burning
side questions OF the municipal elec-
ton. There has recently been intro
duccd into Edinburgh splendid in
stallation OF cable cars. which IL en-
urely shut down at present on Sunday,
and many people do not see why Il
should not be utilized on Sundays as

to grief In an amusing way over this
question. When asked II he was In
favor OF running Sunday cars he an
swered In the negative. and followed
II up by an expression Of his venera-
tion for the quietude OF the dear old
Scottish Sabbath" A newspaper re-
porter. however. found out that the

Fear cause. D.arb.

The death OF John n. peart In Chi
cago the other day. illustrates a point
that has been dwelt upon for years by
physicians and surgeons. Mr.. Beart
in August last had a struggle with n
dog and was bitten In three places
The struggle In itself was OF a charac-
ter 10 produce nervous exhaustion. to
say nothing OF the mutllation by tho
dog. Upon examination IL was shown
that the dog was not afflicted with
rabies. Mr.. Beart recovered from the
immediate effects OF the struggle and
returned 10 his work. But a week be-
fore his death he was taken III and he
grew steadily worse to the end. Those
In attendance believe he died OF fear OF
hydrophobia. There is no dispute as
TO the main facts In the case. The
dog that attacked Mr.. Beart did Lspt
have any disease. Mr. Beart had No
symptoms of hydrophobla. but he
lived for months in horror OF the most
dreaded OF diseases. and this resulted
In conditions that caused his death.
II the dog that made the attack on Mr..
Behrt had been killed. as is usual In
such cases. the case would undoubted-
ly have been catalogued In the hydro
phobia list. AS the case stands. II
gives strength 10 the theory that n
great many OF the so-called cases OF
rabies are produced solely by fear.

The RummaSs role.

The latest fad OF society is the rum
mage sale" II began In New England
and is rapidly making Its way all over
tho country. In certain sense the
"rummage sale" is a sort OF house,
cleaning on large scale. The house
keeper takes an account OF stock. with
the result of finding numerous things
which are too good TO give away or
throw away and yet are hardly good
enough TO keep. Such articles have
usually found their way to the second
hand stores or the cart OF the peddler,
but as the owners get little or nothing
for them the New England spirit OF
thrift has devised the ''rummage sale.
which, 30 long as It remains fad,
will insure profitable returns.
