tabbies, and other unfortunate animals
has been established in New York through
the efforts of number of wealthy
women. A brand new building with all
the most approved and up-to-date COM

world. H..
On the right as one enters is the dis
pensary, which is also the waiting room
for the royal families and lesser satel-
lites OF dogdom, catdom and birddon.
A complete drug shop adjoins this room,
and of that a perfectly-equipped operat-
ing room for emergency cases. On the
second floor are the wards and private
rooms. On this same floor are two diet
Kitchens besides the regular kitchen
where one may order the best of bones,
fish, breads or soups. On the third floor
are wards and private box rooms for
the larger and stouter patients, the
horses.
For those who arrive in a particularly
bad mental or physical state there is the
basement Here are the padded cells and
straitiackets. One odd rule of the insti-
tuition is that there shall be no talking
or visiting among the patients.

prevalent among animals, some au-
thorities believe that 1t Is fairly gener-
al among human beings, but that the
disturbances it causes are usually so
slight that they are not brought to the
attention of the family physician.
There is, however, very good reason
for everyone giving the diseased ami
mails as wide a berth as possible,
namely, that otherwise they may easi-
ly carry the disease to perfectly
healthy herds. Federal inspectors en-
gagged in the work of eradicating the
pestilence are thoroughly equipped with
rubber coats, hats, boots and gloves,
which may be completely disinfected
and others who lack this equipment
are strongly urged not to allow their
curiosity to induce them to become a
menace to their own and their neigh
bors property.
The disease, in short, is dangerous
because of the loss that it occasions to
property, and not because of its eff
fects upon the health of mankind. Az
present all infected herds are being
slaughtered as soon as they are dis
covered, the carcasses buried, and the
premises thoroughly disinfected. Until
all danger of infection has been re-
moved in this way the local authori-
ties quarantine the milk.
Those who wish additional precau.
tions are recommended to use pasteur-
lied milk, but as has already been
said, this recommendation holds true
whether or not there is any fear of the
foot-and-mouth disease.
