Antitoxin For All Doctors.

The comparative rarity of diph-
iberia In this community during the
present winter aud the generally
mild character of the disease Is due,
in the estimation OF the doctors, To
the general use of diphtheria anti
toXine by people. The people are
beginning TO realize, they say, that
in this anIitoxine they have re-
medy which Will insure recovery in
practically all cases OF diphtheria
where il is promptly used. More
over, the use of antitoXine will pre-
vent the appearance OF diphtheria
in children who have been exposed
to the disease.
The chief difficulty in the way of
the general use of antitoixne has
been the high price charged for ii by
lruggists generally. This price plac-
ed the remedy beyond the reach of
the poor of the community. To pre-
vent this, the State Board of Health,
last summer, made arrangement IS
with two of the leading manufac-
|
sold at a very low figure TO the medi-
cal members of the local Boards of
| Health for sale TO those who could
not afford 10 buy il at the regular
rate. Up to the first of January,
nearly two million units OF antitox-
inc were sent out by the State De-
partnent OF Health. At the recent
meeting of the State Board in Rich
mond, il was decided TO furnish this
antitoxine to all physicians of good
standing in the State whether mem
bers Of the local Boards of Health oi
not. These physicians can furnish il
at cost to patients too poor To buy il
at the standard rate, but are not tC
sell ii to other persons. The members
of the county boards can, as hereto
fore, secure the antitoxine for fire,
distribution or for sale TO indigen
patients.
In this manner IL is hoped tina
the use of antitoxine will be encour
aged throughout the State. A ply
, sician can now telegraph his order u
the State Department at Richmond
and can receive the antitoxine b,
, mail or express within few hours

North Tazewell, Va, Jan. IA.
Considerable uneasiness is felt here
over the discovery of several mad
dogs in the town and community. A
dog belonging To colored man here
became mad recently and bit several
other dogs I'm town, and one colored

time, has developed no alarming
symptoms of hydrophobia. The dogs
are being killed rs fast as they can
be found. \ dog whose owner Is not
known is promptly shot by the
authorities, and i'm this way we hope
To prevent any further danger from
mad dogs.
The heads OF the dogs were sent 10

The Canadian-Australian liner Mo-
ara, Captain MorriSby, arrived this
morning from Vancouver, after a voy-
age that started out in the snow and
fog and concluded most pleasantly.
The Moana brought a very large num-
Der of passengers, as will be seen from
the list elsewhere published. Among
the number were Pollards Lilliputians.
1he Moana had little freight for Homo
lulu, and as she was a trife late any
how, hurried away at noon for Suva
ana the Colonies.

The first symptom of this disease is
horseness. When Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is given as soon as the child
becomes hoarse, the attack can always
be averted. Even after the croupy

all its manly beauty and health there
was, he thought, something a little
strained and grave about it-some-
thing of stress and expectation. AS
he was watching Michael Grant one
OF the club walters entered with a let,
ter upon a tray, which he handed to
the athlete. Grant tore it open, read
it quickly, and motioned the man
away. He stood for a moment tap
ping his foot upon the ground as il
in thought. Then he tore up the note,
threw it into the fire and left the
room.

above the fireplace where Grant had
been standing, upon which there was
a silver methyl lamp for smokers to
light then cigar or cigarette. Basil
followed him and took a cigarette
from his case himself. The admiral
lit his cigar, when his eye fell upon
the tiled hearth of the fire below.
N small piece of paper from Grants
note had escaped the flames. 1t bore
a ducal coronet in black and part of
