How to Know a Mad Dou.

Hydrophobia is in reality so rare and
so terrifying that its symptoms and treat
ment are little understood. AS a matter
OF fact the commonly accepted expression
Of madness in dog is often misleading
The real mad dog does not shun water, as
IT Is said. On the contrary. mad dogs
often rush to the water and drink eagerly
If they are able TO swallow. The mad
dog does not froth at the mouth. 1t does
not run amuck. swapping at everything in
ITS path. What, then are the Indications
OF the mad dog? TO those familiar with

one which should excite the closest atten-

change in the dogs disposition-a staid
dog becoming eNcitable. and a friskv one
dull. That condition does not necessarily
mean rabies. but it Is suspicious, and il,
in addition, the dog has trouble in swal-

bone in its throat-beware. That dog
should be instantly tied up. because If it

feroci"us instincts to develop. The un-

Bishop August H~enninghaus OF

worker In a promising mission field,
reinforces and to a large extent cor,
roborates what WI Ting Fang. the
Chinese minister to the United States,
mas said as the official representative
CT MS people and his government. Mr..
WI has told in vivid language of the
dvanc China has made and of the
much greater advance the Celestial
empire is preparing to make. Bishop
H~enninghaus says: There is a new
nina coming In a few years, and,
when 1t does, the country will not fall
back in the rut. 1t is the most i'm
portant time In It's history, and there
is a great awakening. The dynasty is
weak, and it is hard to predict what
VIII be the outcome. But there is a
new China coming, and one radically
different from the present country"
The e China is likely to mean
many changes in methods as well as
IN ideas. There may be some clashing
before all the readjustments are made.
But n Of the most hopeful features
OF the case, In the opinion Of the Troy

by those most likely to be put in
places of power and responsibility.
