FALLACY ABOUT MAD DOGS.
Few of the Animals Suspected of Be
 ing Rabid are Really So.

GS" VI tue An1malS suspected Of Be-
 ing Rabid are Really So.
 New York Tribune.
 We long ago stopped drowning witches. and we believe 1t Is no longer considered quite comme Il faut to skin a black cat alive for the cure of Herpes sostnr. I3;t to the dear, dear legend of the ?. Il dog men cling as to the last hU. CT taith, The moment dog resents brutal treat ment or shows impatience to being eased and tormented, or becomes thirsty in alI arid land. 1t Is incumbent on all rieht- thinking men that they should raise the cry Mad dog!' and chase him furiously about and beat him to death with clubs and stones. Indeed, 1t has long been law. and not merely crowner's quest law either. in these enlightened parts that the so-called mad dog shall be incon- tinently slain. But now this temerarious commissioner proposes that on being call ed mad" by some street arab or beery hobo dog shall not be killed off hand, but shall be put to death decently if rabies shall indeed be developed. and to be restored to his owner if he shall be found to be in proper health.
 Without further recalling all the varie- gated details of this widespread and bar barous delusion, 1t may be said advisedly that probably not one mad dog" in a hundred is really mad. that the popular conception of rabies in dog and in man Is as widely erroneous as that the moon Is made of green cheese and that ths rage for instantly killing every dog sus- pected or accused of madness is un- speakably brutal, stupid and calculated to defeat the very object which those who cherish 1t vaguely think they have in view. That such a mania should prevail In q civilized community, after the en- lightenment given to the world by the illustrations Pasteur. is a sad exposition of the perverse persistence of human frailty and folly and of the savagery which centures of civilization has not been able to eradicate.

Beauty and Strength.

Are desirable. You are strong
and vigorous, when your blood is
pure. Many-nay, women,
fail to properly digest their food,
and so become pale, sallow, thin

this unpleasant evil, by eating
nourishing food, and taking a

meal, to digest what you have
eaten. Soc at A. A. Hull's.

emtnently fit method of acknowledging our
Indebtedness to these men, was to open an
avenue ON the District boundary lines. An
act of Congress would give power to acquire
the necessary land for an avenue of gener-
Gus width inside the lines OF the District OF
Columbia The first line Of about nine
miles running from point opposite Alex
andria to the east corner of the District
might be named Ell1cott avenue, the line
from there to the north corner, ten miles
long, could be called L'Enfant avenue, and
the line from thence to the upper Potomac,
about nine miles long, should be named
Washington boulevard. This last line
passes through Chevy Chase. crosses Rock
Creek Park and over very attractive sec
ton Of our territory.
This work ought to be done to mark per-
manently the limits Of our territory. Boun-
dary stones are liable to be removed or per-
manently injured, AS we learn from re-
cent report from the city engineers state
ment. A generously wide avenue, properly
graded, kept in good repair and planted on
each side with the American poplar or
tuIip tree (the liriodendEon Of the botanists),
would be in constant use as a favorite re-
sort for teams and riders. It's combined
lines on the southeast, the northeast and
the northwest would be, about twenty eight
miles in length, and invite frequent resort,
giving health and. pleasure to its users, and
they would not be confined to the residents
of Washington, but the length, locality
and history would entice people from all
sections of the copntryItto see and enjoy a
ride over the great historic boulevard.

Memorial Suggestions.
To the Editor of The Evening Star:

Some day, not, we hope, far distant, the
country will pay a just, deserved and per-
manent tribute to the accomplished engi-
neer Major L'Enfant, who was employed
by President Washington to survey the site
selected by him, under an act Of Congress,
for the permanent seat of the United States
governments capital, and to make and SUBJ
NIT plans for the avenues, streets, parks
and public building sites. The merits Of
his work are at last recognized and admit
ted in the laudatofy articles published, eu-
logizing his capacity and taste. The public
for years and years omitted to study the
plans, and their beauties were not under
stood by many until the late Alexander R.
Shepherd by his sagacity and energy, dem
onstrated, in the retracing of the lines, the
grades and the park localities, the elegance
Of the system Now, then, as the discovery
is made, let there no long delay In show
ing our admiration for, and acknowledgment
of our Indebtedness to LEnfant and his
able coadjutor, Mr.. Elliicott of Maryland.
Let the great merit of their work be recog-
nized by the erection of a suitable memo
rial.
In an article recently published in The
Star the site suggested for the location of
the Shepherd memorial Is the triangle in
front of the contemplated city hall building
between 1914 and 14th streets, and it is a
very appropriate one, and the triangle on
the opposite side Of Pennsylvania avenue,
covering the public space between the ave-
nue. and E street, would be equally COM
mendable for the L'Enfant and Ellicott
memorial
Some years ago addressed a note to the
late DR.. Toner on this subject, when 1t
was under discussion before the Columbia
historical Society, and named this spot as
desirable and suitable locality for a
tribute to the great engineer. Another sug-
gestion then made to the doctor, as an

prominent physician recently asked why
1t was that there many blood purifiers, ="
nerve tonics' and remedies for every Ill, except
one of the most common and annoying, viz, piles.
He replied. there two principal reasons First,
physicians and people in general have thought that
the only permanent for piles was surgical
operation that medicinal preparations were simply
palliative. Another reason is that piles is in no
sense of the word imaginary disease; the suf-
ferer from piles is very much aware Of the fact,
and for this reason the few so-called pile salyes
ointments. etc. have been short-lived. The pa
tient verv discovered their ineffciency.
He saws further. fortunately, however. there is
a remedy for piles, which, judging from its
rapidly growing popularity, will take the place
of all other treatment; it has certainly made as
tonshing in this obstinate disease, and Its
merit has made 1T famous among physicians and
wherever it has been introduced This remedy is

From the immediate relief which the Pyramid
