Hydrophohia Deereasino.

The number OF inoculations for by.
drophobia at the Pasteur Institute Of
France has pretty steadily decreased
since the service was started. 20 years
ago. In 1886 2,671 persons were
treated: in 1907 only 7s6. The small
est number. 62s, was treated In 1903.
This decrease. of course. might mean
a lessening belief in the efficacy Of
the treatment or a decrease In the pre-
valence OF rabbies in France. An
examination OF the percentage Of
fatal cases treated reveals that this
also has been decreasing, showing i'm.
provement in efficiency and indi.
eating that the treatment has prob.
ably been effective in checking the
maIady. At no time during the exist
ence of the institute has the number
Of fatal cases reached one per cent. of
the total treated. but In 1856 It was
0.94 per cent, while in 1907 It was
only O.3s. In 1906 1t fell as low as
ola. there being only one death out OF
772 cases treated.

SYNOPSIS.

Darlington loved Kate Cavenaugh.
daughter of Multi-Millionaire Henry Cav
enauRh. The latter liked Darlington. but
refused him as a son-in-law. Young Car
Fington, a lawyer, held evidence of GRIM
lnal financial operations. of which Cave
nauRh was guilty. 1t was Carrington's 8
duty to prosecute the rich man. but he
decided to lay the whole matter before
Kate. He did SO the next day. The young
woman decided that to drop the case
would be cowardly even though the ac-
cused was her father. Cavenaugh offered
Darlington position at $1,000 year.
He refused II. He hid his evidence in the
Cavenaugh safe. after being intrcduced
60 the millionaire's father. The evidence
was stolen that night. Kate's sister
Norah connded that she had told her
grandfather the combination to the safe.
Carrington and Kate went riding.
