by the two governments or by means
of a commission. There can be no
arbitration without the advice and
consent of the senate.
Thus. holding in its own hands the
decision in all cases as to whether
the United States shall submit any
question to arbitration. the senate Is
safe In going ahead and r%atifying the
treaties . Surely the senate need not
fear that it may in the future con-
sen, to the arbitration OF such a
question az the Monroe doctrine or

ASoA
A disaguring human ailment has at
last appeared as a stern warning 10
women who have formed the disgust
ing habit of kissing their pet dogs.
The disease Is new-as yet confined to
fafis, where dog pets are more num-
erous than in any other city, with a
few cases reported in London.
Paris doctors have not yet given the
new disease a scientific name, but the
French equivalent for "dog-mouth' is
the accepted colloquialsm that has
caused hundreds of fashionable wom-
en- to keep their canine friends at a
wholesome distance from their fair
faces.
The disease does not appear nearly
as severe In dogs as it does when con-
Neyed to human beings, which is al
ways the case with human infection
from animals. The only symptoms
that the dogs show is that Of rubbing
their muzz!e against things and sneez-
Ing or coughing a good deal. But when
contracted by q human the symptoms
become alarming.
The mouth becomes infamed and
swells enormously. the inflammation
spreading to the cheeks. and in some
cases even closing the eyes. The pain
Is intense. The patient is feverish and
sometimes delirious.
Large sores or testers develop about
the mouth and nose and spread ali
over the mucous membrane. When
they heal they frequently leave scars
that dtsfgure the face.
The disease has not been known Till
this year. at least in its present form.
NO case as Yet has proven fatal of il.

victims seem TO be prone il the case IL

tne system and leave it open to the
attacks OF other diseases.
1t also Is very bad in its after ef.
1ects. the sufferers being in much the
same condition as after a very severe
attack OF grip. Lack OF strength
iansuor: loss of appetite, indigestion
etc. follow in its wake.

In years Of laboratory practice. The

The text step will consist In devils

benefit from the labors OF the men
who have been pioneers in this branch
Of scientific research. Already num-
erous ways have been suggested,
which contemplate using it as an ad-
tunct to the Bertillon systems now in
use in all the leading cities of the
western world.
Experts who have gone into the
matter predict that within the next de-
cade blood samples. carefully classi-
ned and preserved. will form part of
the data OF detective bureaus, and play
as important part in detecting certain
KINDS OF crimes and criminals as meas
urements and photographs.

least n operative. trained to gather
blood samples. In working upon MUIR
der cases whore blood has been shed,
strictest attention will be given to
gathering this variety Of evidence. so
that the smallest -speck Of gore, left
on he trail Of a murderer may prove
as damaging testimony as a thumb

There is no likelihood that detective
bureaus will own and operate their
laboratories. but samples to be inves-
tlsated Will be turner e to specil-

Kissing Dogs is Dangerous
TERRIBLE NEW MOUTH DISEASE HAS DEVELOPED FROM FOND.
LING CANINE PETS

A few cases Of the disease have APP
peared in London, and 1t Is probable
that it will be brought to this country.
NO cases have as yet been reported by
the doctors in America. but they are
urging people to be on the safe side
and not to kiss ones dog nor fondle
him 100 closely. Do not let him lick
the hands or face. especially in the
case OF children. Indeed, children
should be taught that they should new

greater hotbed of disease germs than
that OF a human being, and mouth dis

feared.

attacked with the "dogmouth:" and
some have been dis1gured by the at
tack.

been greatly disfigured about the
mouth by the disease. She can cover
