II Your poa Goe. Mad.

Joseph "A. Graham In June Outing:
Rabies, according to reports, has had
an unusual prevalence this spring.
Some twenty cases have given me q
chance at observation in two or three
dog hospitals and kennels.
In view of prevalent beliefs it is cEyi-
Gus that l can discover but one case
which resulted from bite. Nearly all
Of the others proceeded from obscure
or unknown causes. C..e Boston ter
rier developed the disease in a kennel
of forty dogs. where she had been for
month. There had never been u case
in the kennel and none of the other
dogs have manifested symptoms since.
The one symptom which seems to be
universal is complete change of char
at the dogs best friends. l watched an
infected poodle for long time one day
and could not see that he had any con-
seriousness of what he was doing. "A
piece of straw lay across his eyeball
without apparently causing him any
sensation whatever
AS understand It, no biologist has
yet isolated the microbe of "hydropho-
bia" or discovered specific antitoxin.;
Whether the Pasteur treatment is
really specific, doubt. It may be a
reliable preventive. and at any rate
ought to be taken by every human be-
ing who has been bitten by a mad
dos" or exposed to close contact.
NAL in action he should be completely
isolated for observation; or, still bet
ter, at once killed. There is certainly
enough of danger from this disease or
group OF diseases, to justify heroic
measures at the first alarm

OF Wide lntere,r.

Breed, WIS. June 26.-(Spectal.)-
Chas. Y. Peterson, Justice of the Peace
for Oconto Co., has delivered a judg-
ment that is Of interest to the whole
United States. Put briefly. that judg-
ment is. "Dodd's Kidney Pills are the
best Kidney medicine on the market
today"
And Mr.. Peterson gives his reason
for this Judgment. He says: Last
winter l had an aching pain in my
back which troubled me very much. In
the morning could hardly straighten
my back. did not know what it was,
but an advertisement led me to try
Dodd's Kidney Pills. After taking one
box can only say they have done
more for me than expected. as feel as
we'll now as ever did BEFORE"
Pain in the back is one Of the first
symptoms of Kidney Disease. If not
cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills it may
develop into Brights Disease, Diabetes,
Rheumatism or some of the other dead
ly forms of Kidney Disease.
