rear OF the bank and, going behind
the counter, picked up a sack con.

The action of the thief who went to
the rear Of the bank was witnessed
by one of the bank clerks, who imme.

The scream had scarcely left his

The thief who had been talking to

Prevention Of Typhoid Fever.

In view of the epidemics of typhoid
fever which have occurred in this
state within the past two years, it is
important that our people should I'm
derstand that the disease is an easily
preventable one To make this fact
plain to all who read our paper we
copy, from the Farmers Home Jour-
nal, a circular sent out by the state
board of health of Kentucky We
call attention especially to the closing
paragraph.
This Board again feels it to be a
duty to call the earnest attention of
our health authorities and people to
the increasing prevalence and NOR
tality from typhoid fever and to the
consequent growing Importance of the

it and wash it. They are in great
4anger.
1t is said that mad dogs are recog-
nlZed by their repugnance to water.
This is mistake. Dogs suffering
FROM rabies have no repugnance to
water, but simply are unable to drink,
their Threats being paralyzed. Neither
can they eat meat or other food. If
dog exhibits the symptoms of rest
fulness, excessive playfulness, along
with inability to eat Or drink, pru-
dence demands that it be shut up
where it can do no harm to any one.
1t the diagnosis is wrong, the dog
can be released later If it is right
and the dog is found to be mad, the
animal can be killed. It must be
borne in mind that the dog does not
have to bite in all cases to transmit
the rabies. If there is an abrasion of
the skin of a persons hand and a
mad dog licks the hand, the poison
is sure to be transmitted.
1t is advised that if one is in the
presence of a mad dog and no easy
avenue of escape presents itself, it is
best for one so situated to stand per-
fectly STILL so as not attract the notice
of the dog. The dog moves in half
blind, unintelligent way, and does not
chase people. 1t attacks objects it
finds in it's path, believing them enc
mics.

Symptoms Of Rabies.


We have found, in the True Demo
crat, an article which contains some
excellent advice which it would be
we'll for every owner of a dog to COM
nit to memory and keep always in
mind.
1t is a good thing to know when a
dog has the rabies, or when he is
mad the popular characterize ton
of the rabies. A writer in the Mobile
Register hands out a lot of good adj
vice which the average man, woman
and child would do we'll to read and
heed. An excerpt is as follows:
Rabies in dogs, being more than
usually prevalent in the part of the
country this year, it is worth the
peoples while to get acquainted with
the outward manifestations of the
disease, in order that they may avoid
becoming victims of it.
The general idea is that rabies in a
dog is shown by terrible madness
on the part of the animal, and by the
animals rushing through the streets,
frOthing at the mouth and swapping at
everything in reach. 1t is true that
in extreme cases of madness dogs are
known to act in this manner, but they
do not froth at the mouth Their
mouths are dry and dusty.
There are many phases of madness,
from dumb rabies to furious rabies.
In extreme cases of dumb rabies the
animal appears sick, paralyzed and
despairing. The ignorant would not
suppose the disease to be rabies, but
the saliva in such an animal is quite
as deadly as that of a dog sick of
furious rabies.
A dog that has been bitten by a
mad dog develops the disease in
from ten to thirty days. Infrequently
earlier than ten days, or later than
thirty days. The disease has been
known to take year to develop.
Restlessness, inability to find any
comfortable position, the dropping of
the lower jaw and protrusion of the
tongue, with heavy painting, because
the throat is paralyzed, are symptoms
of rabies; also barking when there is
no cause, and swapping at the air, as
if tormented by invisible insects The
dropped jaw gives the impression
that the animal has something in the
throat. The owner tries to remove
the obstruction, not knowing the ami
NAL has the rabies. The dog is often
very playful, unusually so, and more
than usually DESTROYS of licking it's
owners hand. Then it becomes
morose and sometimes wild and snap
pish. The next development is paral-
ysis of the hind legs Then death.
An affected dog will run away from
home, returning weary, dirty and
wretched. Sympathizing friends pet

The Orange Situation.

Inc Arcadia Champion discusses
this question in a very sensible man
ner. 1t is a pity that the Florida
Fruit Exchange could not be revived
to relieve the situation. If it is dead
past resurrection, then the growers
ought to organize a new one on a
similar plan.
The absorbing topic among the
owners of orange groves today is,
What are we going to do with our
oranges? When oranges are scarce
there is no such question. Buyers
are eager and plentiful, but with a
full crop, buyers are shy and growers
gloomy. This summer the market is
exceedingly quiet, whether from con-
certed plan on the part of the buyers
or from actual Indifference, we can
only guess Only a few buyers have
been down in DeSoto to look over the
crop prospects, and those who came,
output. The price does not suit the
growers, and they will not argue the
question with the buyers. Now what
are we going to do about it?
Our correspondent from Lily gives
in this issue, plan which he thinks
might relieve the situation. With one
amendment we think it might sue
coed, and that is that instead of each
man trying to market his own crop,
a bright active and up-tO-the times
man be chosen to go to the city mar
ket and handle the product of the
growers packing house. Unless this
is done the usual result of dishonest
commission men at the other end will
defeat the purpose of the growers, no
matter how carefully the oranges are
graded and packed. There is no grow
er of vegetables or oranges who has
tried shipping his own stuff but re-
members with chagrin the handsome
product that went to the city freight
ed with high hopes that gave returns
that blasted hopes and made the own
err vow he never would try it again.
To such a man the buyer who pays
cash OH delivery at the packing house
is great relief. You know then what
you are getting, and are at nobody's
mercy. This is an old story, and we
are not talking in the buyers interest
What we want is to protect the grow
er from the greed Of the buyer. Shall
we, as one grower vowed he would do,
Use his oranges to fertilize the grove
before he would accept Is cents a box
for them?
Unless we can induce a change Of
heart in the buyers, so that they will
allow the growers to share equally
with them in the profits of their crops,
the only hope seems in a cooperative
packing house scheme which includes
man at the other end of the market
who is strictly honest and will see
that the Florida growers get all that's
coming to them.

Typhoid fever is probably the most
preventable of all diseases, not even
excepting smallpox. 1t is now definite
ly known that, like cholera and dys-
EMERY, the germs of the disease are
contained only in the discharges from
the bowels and kidneys Of those sick
of it, and that it is necessary for
person to swallow some of such dis
charges, or things polluted by them,
in some way, in order to contract the
disease. They usually gain entrance
to the system through infected water

the germs may also be carried ON the
hands Of careless attendants, or on

milk or other articles of uncooked
food Or drink from cans and vessels
washed in infected water.
Based upon the teachings of the
foregoing facts, the following rules
have been prepared for the guidance
of all persons interested in their own
and the public health:
1. When it is known or suspected
that a person has typhoid fever, he
should be placed in a large we'll venti-

doors we'll screened, and such preDa-
ration should be made from the first
day for the thorough and systematic
disinfection of all discharges from the
bowels and kidneys as will protect
other members of the family, the at
PENDANTS, and the community.
2 A solution of chloride Of lime,
eight ounces to the gallon of water,
should be provided in quantity, and
quart Of this should be put in the
bed-pan each time before it receives
the discharges, and should be we'll
stirred and allowed to stand in the
vessel at least an hour before it is
buried.
3. Soiled bed or body linen should
remain in the chloride of lime sOlu-
ton for an hour, and may then be
safely put in the family wash. Soiled
paper or cloths used about the patient
should be Immediately burned. At
PENDANTS should wash the hands fire.
quently, and the lips, and rinse the
mouth always before eating. No one
should partake of any food which has
stood in the sick room.
4. Typhoid fever is not contagious

and if the precautions above indicated
are faithfully and intelligently carried
out, case may be treated in any
family or community with nerfoct
