ernor General of Canada who cut his face slightly with a razor while shay ing and allowed a pet fox to lick the wound. There was no thought of possible danger. but the oficIal devei- oped a plain case of hydrophobia and died from it.
 The case of MT. Marsh exhibits the constant danger of hydrophobia. It may occur at any season of the year and may develop at the most unex- pected time and place. The case al- so shows the difficulty of locating this dread disease. Had Mir. Marsh known a week or two earlier that he was in danger and gone at once to the Pas teur Institute his life would doubtless have been saved. for that institution has had wonderful success in dealing with rabies but as he suspected noth- ing. and knew of no cause of danger, he neglected 1t until too late. The case shows not only the almost con- stant danger from this fearful disease but also the difhculty of knowing when there Is danger There is al- ways danger in the city, for that mat ter. and always need of watchfulness.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1908-05-27
A SAD CASE.

The sad death of William H. Marsh of Brooklyn calls attention to the con stant danger of hydrophobia. and the case is of such peculiar nature that it is worth commenting on. First. however, we give the following brief statement as The Charlotte Observer condenses it from the New York pa pers:
 Mir Marsh, had a bull terrier which had been kept for several years at pered and was loved by those who were familiar with him. About six weeks ago he came in with a wound on his side which did not look so much like a bite as an injury inflicted by a sharp stone. or something of that kind, MT. Marsh. himself dressed the dog developed symptoms of rabies, and was killed on the advice of veterin- ary surgeon. Stl Mir. Marsh had no thought of danger for himself. He of the communication of the disease in any other way. In fact. the tn ought does not seem to have entered his mind until last Saturday when he found that he had difficulty in swallowing and that the muscles of his mouth and throat were not under full control. lie CDnSuitEG ms DRASlCid n, Who sent him to Pasteur Institute and there he was told that he had rabies in form so far advanced that nothing could be done to oh eek the progress of the dis ease. It had already reach ed the point at which 1t must run it's course and death is considered certain.
 Mir. Marsh died on Wednesday. as we now remember, and he died of hy- drophobia, yet the strange feature of the case is that he had not been bitten by the mad animal, nor could he give any cause for the disease attacking him. The only explanation given by the physicians was that in dressing the would not have thought there was any heen bitten by an animal with hydro phobia some of the virus from the wound got into a slight cut on his hand and this in due time developed into typical case of rabies
 Now here was a case where there was no thought of danger. MT. Marsh, did not know that the dog whose wound he dressed had heen bitten by mad dog and If he had le probably would oot have thought there was any possible danger to himself until the animal itself developed the disease. in which case he might have been bitten by it if he was not watchful As 1t was. he knew the dog was not mad at the time he dressed it's wound and thought he knew that there was no danger to himself. The case reminds The Brooklyn Eagle of former Gov

.,..d than inside ones. But ,nt q. ha remembered that an outside room, whether opening on promenade aock ar underneath one, has its dis adyartaRes. If you have one or these rohn,s YOU will probably be disturbed hv inc noise made by the cleaning oI ,to decks in the wee sma' hours or .he .s~ nasisne to and fro of those ,,ho nrefer walking out of doors to sleepinE within. Again. the strohs iieht of the morning sun may prove a disturbing factor. Some of these rooms have only the artificial Venti- iatjon. similar to the inside rooms TOT the portholes frequently are not onened. However, the ventilating sys- tenn on most of the boats is admiraoiy managed today. so one need not rear lack of good air in any of the rooms
 Women need not give too much thought beforehand to the matter of clothes. Have the skirt of your tray cling suit suficiently short to clear the deck. A silk waist has the ad- vantage over cotton materials in that I, does not soil so quickly. lons coat will be found almost invaluable. When you are wrapped up Tn your steamer chair, it will be comfort' and will prevent the stiff breezes blowing the skirt around when you walk the deck.
 A small close fitting hat is best. The soft felt ones which can be held in place with a large veil passed over the top and tied under the chin are always becoming.
 See that he shoes have soles sut- ciently heavy to prevent damp 1eet when the decks are wet. A pair or footholds will be found useful wren the weather is unpleasant, for they will save one from slipping.
 Equestrian tights are not bulky to carry and provide against the raw cold days.
 whether the trip be long or short. take as little baggage as possioie, ana see to 1t that the necessary toilet articles are compactly packed. so as to be at hand when needed in the stateroom. An excellent plan is to provide yourself with bag to be fas- tened on the stateroom wall. In this the comb. brush, slippers. tooth brush, powder andi all such toilet accessories may be conveniently placed.
 Immediately on seeing that your baggage Is in your staterootn, provide yourself with a steamer chair, and have 1t placed as advantageously as possible Take heed not to have 1t. where you will obtain whiffs from the galley. The odors are apt to be up- permost in your mind when you should be taking deep breaths of the salt air. Take the precautioh to have your name on your steamer rug and pill lows.
 If you wish to take advantage of the salt water baths each morning, arrange with the bath or room stew ard for your bath hour.
 If you have had flowers sent to you. don't make the well-nigh fatal mis- take of keeping them in your state room the ordor will not be pleasant Rather see that they are placed on the saloon table.
 This done, and your seat at table is fixed, you will be ready to enjoy your vacation trip to the utmost.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 27, 1908.

People take newspapers nowadays, read them and throw them away. They never think what a source of pleas ure and profit-or reminiscence and of such a paper would be to them twenty or thirty years afterwards. Pay for your papers and then keep them.- Bay Minette Times.
 This is one way of accommodating an estate without any cost. It is a good suggestion. Until one lives his score or more of years and finds his memory sadly failing him, he cannot realize the immense importance of a reference like a newspaper file. This means not alone the dailies but the weeklies of the State. They are the fullest and best records of our daily lives. It is the next best thing to a diary and we believe all will admit the scarcity of diaries in these days of push and forgetfulness.
 Carefully save your newspapers. File them away, and every year there will be less of the truth in the lines of the English poet:
 'There was time when meadow. grove
 and stream,
 The earth and every common sight To me did seem apparelled in celestial
 light.
 The glory and freshness of a dream. But 1t is not now as it hath been of
 yore
 For look wheresoer I may by night or
 day
 The things which I have seen can see
 no more"

WHAT DOES THIS MEANf

As we had not seen the announcement in the Wash ington or any other papers. we came to the conclusion that another mistake had been made, and telegraphed to learn the facts. Last night this reply was wired to The Advertiser:

PROTECTION OF FORESTS,

Some Valuable Information on Import
 ant Subject.
 American Industries.
 The first duty of the forest service is to protect the national forests. These forests are mainly virgin in the sense that but little of their erea has been cut over They are not, however. vir- gin in the sense of being fully stocked with timber.
 A fully establish ed forest which has been interfered with does not gain. It makes no more wood by growth than 1t loses by decay. Most of the forested area of the West. however. has been severely interfered with for many years, chiefly by fire. Fires caused much damage even before white men enterd the country. They have caused much more since. The most serious part of the damage caused by the or dinary forest fire is that done to the young growth. from the tiny seedlings in their first year up. To this damage by fire must be added the heavy dam age caused in the past by the over grazing of stock, and especially of sheep.
 With the checking of these and other abuses through administration by the Government. the quantity of timber on the National Forests Is on the increase again. Even were no timber cut. the present supposed stand of $50. 900 900. 900 board feet of timber on the national forests would he adding very materi- ally to its quantity each year that fires are kept out. It may be said. in pass ing. that the fire loss on these forests is now reduced almost to a negligible figure. If the entire cost of the for est administration for the last fiscal year were charged to the account of fire protection, it would be equivalent to an insurance charge of someth ing like S2 per $l 900,
 During the calendar year 1907 the timbered area of national forest land burned over was about two one-hun- dredths of one per cent of the total area of national forests, and consider ably less than one one-hundredths of one per cent of the standing timber was destroyed Tn other words. look Ing at the matter from a strictly busi- ness standpoint the Government may well feel that it did not do badly last year with It's forest property even though it's per acre expenditures and receipts were very low, since the for ests carried themselves, and in so do- ing paid for protection of the prop erty which If regarded as insurance was worth at the ordinary insura ance rate of city property more than the gress expenditures of the Government upon its forests. And in addition to this valuable consideration obtained without expense. the Government has gained also by the decided improve ment of the forests which protection from fires and other causes of injury has brought
