While cases of rabies among dogs have
kept the Pasteur end of the hygienic

often that the surgeons there run against
rabies in any other animal.
They have just finished giving the pre-
cautionary treatment to one patient. how
ever. who was exposed 10 rabies from
contact with horse. This was unusual
enough TO be interesting.
The patient was DR.. Harry Bosley q
Washington veterinarian. He was call
cd in on September 10 to treat a horse
belonging to a business man of Washing
ton. 1t was not plain at first just what
was the matter.
The horse the next day, however, de-
veloped a furious form of rabies. After
biting itself in its paroxysms, 1t died the
same night.
To make the case sure. DIR. Bosley took
the brain of the horse to the bureau of
animal industry. They pronounced the
case true rabies.
The doctor had had his hand In the
horses mouth the day before. There be-
irg a small abrasion of the skin on his
hand. he was advised to take the preven-
tive treatment at the hygienic laboratory.
