Great Britain En-
dorseS Buisson Treatment.

AS an aid to Quieting the public which
boards of health and PaSteur institutes
sur up every summer with rabies scares.
the journal of Zoophily publishes a
map OF India showing the localities
IN which the Buisson vapor bath is
given in cases of dog bite. In abont
fifty. places in different parts of that
empire these vapor baths are dis
pehSeu, free when patients are unable to
pay. The government of Great Britain
has made an extensive, searching study
INTO the whole subject Of rabies and its
treatment, ana as q result has caused
the BuisSon vapOr bath treatment to be
Installed as stated. In cases where the
path Is given at home q foot bath, a
cane seated chair and an oil or spirit
lamp are about all the equipment re-
CURED IN addition to a number of blank
cts and ice cold water to be applied to
the head. During the sweating the pa
uent should be furnished with cold water
TO drink. If he Tor shel frets at the
sight Of drinking water and says he
cannot swallow 1t, you may rest assured
1t Is because he has heard that water
throws those bitten by dogs into con
vulslons, which is one of the falsehoods
which have grown up concerning the
false hydrQphobia about which we hear
so much. The sight of water does not
AFFECT even a sufferer from genuine ra-
bleS any more than would milk or whis-
ky. DIR. Hammond. in an entertaining
series of articles published in the North
American-the magazine years ago
InStanced the case of a policeman whom
he. was called upon to treat for rabies.
\ little investigation showed that the
patient was suffering from fright and
that his mind was filed with the ridicu-
lous nonsense with which reporters EN-
bellish rabies stories. He tried to bark
like Il dog and he shuddered when wa
ter was brought-neither one of which
is a symptom of rabies. DR. Hammond
asked the patient if he would care for
some beer. The idea was welcomed and
the physician sat by while the man took
nearly a quart of beer with the greatest
ease, proving of course that the muscles
of his throat so far from being paralyzed
were in excellent working order and that
he therefore was victim not of dog
bite but of his own silly fears. The doc
Tor told the man that he was. Il well man
and advised him to return to police duty.
Thus was a martyr story killed and the
local journals done out of a thrilling tale
Of a dog Jite.-NOgue.

Girl Students at Work.

A certain type of the serious minded
young woman of today is not to be
downed. In no way does she more in
dividually assert herself than in her de
termination to get an education.
a generation ago few girls thought of
working their way through college.
Today a girl may be poor, but if she is
ambitious lack of money makes no more
difference to her than to her ambitious
brother There are numbers of self-re-
liant young women in and around New
York this summer engaged in occupations
which their grandmOthers would have
Shuddered to contemplate.
One young girl in her third college
year is spending the summer months
taking little children out to play in the
parks. They are boys and girls whose
homes are in tenements and who have
come under the notice Of the Guild of
Play. This young woman and others
are employed by the guild to take the
children in relays on outings TO Central
park, or better yet, to the Bronx and to
Van COrtlandt.
Another Independent young woman who
is taking a summer course in a college in
this city had no money to pay her ex-
penses. Through a friend she met a wom-
an who was leaving for the summer an
apartment which was situated near the
college The girl suggested the letting
of the rooms Of this apartment TO re-
sponsibIe summer students, she herself

persoraI supervision of all the rooms,
care Of the linen and other household
details.
Tie apartment holder, knowing that
things would be in responsible hands and
no. ayerse to having her rooms bring
i'm money during her absence, agreed.
Having her room assured the student
looked about for board. She impressed
the landlady Of a boarding house with
the desirability Of having capable

Her c0mpensa ton was t. be board for
herself. The plan is working sausfae-
tori,y for all concerned.
Leather work is the specially of an
other young woman. She is alone in toe
world and was invited by family friend
to speud the summer months in pros
porous suburb. The girl realized toe
