DR.. Rambaud decries because, he says,
1t gives a false sense Of security. But
Dr.. Anna Williams, who is devoting
her life to the study of rabies in the
research laboratory of the New York
Board Of Health, says she is willing
to take her chances on cauterization,
If the wound is not too deep. The
average person, however, will prefer
to take the Pasteur treatment. Since
its discovery in 1884 It has been tried
on more than 25O.OOO people, and of
those who took It only one-half of one
per cent have died
On the subject of the disease itself
there is not much room for question.
The existence of the virus has been
proved beyond all reasonable doubt by
inoculating a whole series of dogs, one
from another, and having each one de-
velop the same symptoms and die in
the same way. But, what has stood in
the way Of a greater knowledge, aside
from the treatment, has been the
doubt as to the nature of the virus.
Some hold 1t is a bacterium, the low
est form of plant life, and others that
It is a protozoon, the lowest form of
animal life. Bacteria are subject to
epidemics; the known protozoons are
not. The layman can only hope for
the protozoon conclusion.
The Pasteur treatment normally
consists of injections into the flank of
an emulsion of small portions of the
spinal cord of inoculated rabbits dis
solved in a salt solution. For bites on
the hand or body, if the patient begins
the treatment within a week, it is con-
tinued for eighteen days. If the delay
is greater it is continued for several
days longer. Pasteur himself laid
down the rules which have been fol-
lowed more or less closely ever since.
But experience has shown that this
treatment is much less successful for
bites on the face, where the reach to
the nerve center is shorter. To meet
the emergency face bites have given
rise to, within the past two years a
new treatment has been developed
days. It is rather heroic, but It has
been used a great many times without
bad results, saving the lives of many
who had no time to spare. Instead of
using virus the virulence of which has
been allowed to die out, as in the old
method, the emulsion consists of a
serum obtained from sheep strongly
immunized against rabies mixed with
fresh virulent virus.
The Pasteur treatment is only pre-.
ventive. The serum meets and grap-
pies with the virus on its way up the
nerve to the brain. Once 1t has reach
ed the nerve center, it defies treatmnt.
But, If you do not know you have been
exposed, your first intimation is after
the virus is in the brain engaged in
its fateful work.
Death from rabies has become too
common to occupy a front-page posi-
tion in the newspapers. That alone
shows the prevalence of the disease.
Tomorrow or next week, when you
read of little children being bitten on
the street, remember that one Of
those children might have been yours.
Imagine, then, the furious animal
rushing at your child, tearing at his
face and body!-Is the picture too hor.
rible?
1t is happening every day. Your
child may be next.
The Celina Democrat. (Celina, O. [Ohio]) 1895-1921, 1911-03-31

when the morning comes, he is foam
ing at the mouth-a mad dog. The BIT
ing mania is on him, and he attacks
everything, cattle, horses, dogs, cats,
children. Fortunately the only other
animal which gets the biting mania is
the horse. The disease is spread in
almost every case by dogs.
After two or three days, If he has
not meanwhile been shot, he comes
back, but, by this time, he has done
his damage. He is weak in the hind
legs, then in the fore legs. His eyes
become covered with a film and his
under jaw hangs down. Before long
general paralysis sets in and he dies.
The warning which can hardly fail
to be noticed is the howl, and,
when his owner hears this, it
is high time to act. He can
be caught without much danger of
biting, as a mad dog only attacks his
master when the disease has complete
ly captured his mind. But the saliva
is already virulent, and gloves should
be worn Otherwise little of it pene-
trating the skin or rubbed from the
hand to a freshly shaved chin is
enough to communicate the disease.
In dumb rabies the first sign is the
dropping of the jaw When this hap
pens to a dog, it is only necessary to
place a dish of water before him to
discover whether he has rabies. He
will lick at it, If rabid, but he will not
be able to swallow, and the amount in
the dish will remain the same.
AS he cannot bite he is not very
dangerous, but his saliva is as virulent
as if he had furious rabies, and he
should be kept apart. Usually a dog
with dumb rabies is believed to have
a bone in his throat, and some kindly
person puts a hand in his mouth
literally into the jaws of death.
In mixed rabies the dog is more or
less furious. He shows some of the
symptoms of both the other forms.
About the only other diseases to
which dogs are prone show them
selves in a way not to be confused
with rabies. Gastric trouble and
rheumatism appear much as in human
beings, and distemper is accompanied
by coughing and sneezing, a high
fever and running at the eyes.
The cardinal rule is never to kill a
biting dog if possible to avoid 1t.
Catch and chain him, and wait to see
if the symptoms of rabies develop. If
he is all right at the end of a week
those he bit may breathe more free
ly, but, If he becomes rabid, they have
no time to lose.
With the increase in rabies some
knowledge of what to do for a dogs
victims is as essential as a pocket sup
ply of potassium permanganate in the
rattlesnake country. DR.. George G.
Rambaud, of the Pasteur Institute of
New York, gives the following direc-
tons as first aid to the injured:
The wounds should be treated like
any other infected wounds. Bleeding
should be encouraged, as a free flow
of blood may carry off with # great
part Of the virus. Then the wound
should be thoroughly washed with any
good antiseptic solution. The newer
colloidal silver or silver-salt prepara-
tions are to be preferred, but, in their
absence, iodine, a four per cent solu
ton of carbolic acid, or even lemon
juice, are useful"

Bees Break Loose

Employees and Travellers Are Given a
Scare as the Bees Make a
Friendly Call.

All was quiet at the Union station at s

ear. Soon a small panic was well started
among the Union station employees and a
few stray passengers near, when it was
discovered that several thousands of bees
being shipped in crates had broken loose.
The card on the crate sara they wete

sweets inside testified that there were
such things in this world, but they will

Not only once, but several times.
Only two OF the ten cases being shipped
had broken open. and after half an hour
the bees returned to the honey in the
cases, which they evidently regarded as

cases. Leather-gloved and a veil over hi:

With forty smallpox patients enjoying

age in funds to provide the necessary eata-
bios.
Some provisions will have to be made for
moro funds as the present appropriation

get more money He will Rsk the city
council to add to the funds set aside early
in the year.
AT present forty are at the Emergency

confined at one time For the last two
months the hospital has been taxed to the
limit. Two thousand dollars was set aside
by the council for the maintenance OF the
Emergency hospital, but the fund is about
exhausted. Connell wants more money.
