KILL NERVES TO CURE


Severe neuralgia can be cured by
injecting alcohol in to the nerves, but
the cost is terrible, for the price is
the death OF the nerve, with paralysis
as the result.
Such. In brief, Is the conclusion
which DR.. Williams b. Cadwalader re-
ports to the Journal of the American
Medical association after experiments
made at the Laboratory of Neuropa-
thology of the University of Pennsyl-
vania.
The alcohol kills not only the nerves
OF sensation, but motor nerves as
well. In a nerve like the sciatic this
would be serious. For the nerve may
remain paralyzed for a year after the
injection of the alcohol.
In trifacial neuralgia, which is
caused by a purely sensory nerve, this
action is of little Importance. The
cure is not permanent, however, but
affords freedom from pain for several
months, perhaps as much as a year.
The nerves r~esenerate just as they do
when severed.

FIGHTING THE
COYOTE EPIDEMIC,

WITH the news from Senator Pitt.
man received by DR.. Mack this morn.
ing that force employed in fighting
coyotes would be increased to so men,
the war against rabies should be.
come even more effective than IL has
been. II has been going forward well
since Sans and the present force went
into h field. In addition to the fed.
eral fighters, there is a small army OF
civil fighters, so to call them, in Ell.
10 and in Humboldt counties and these
are doing their best against the pest.
II Is reported from Elko and from
Winnemucca that coyote-scalp boun.
ties are in demand.
The spread of the epidemic OF rabies
10 other states will of course induce
them TO do what Nevada has been
compelled to do with the aid OF the
federal authorities. No one realized
the extent OF the evil until ii had al
ready gained n hold and already the
losses in cattle and sheep have been
quite heavy because We did not act in
time. But Nevada is acting now, all
right, and the federal government is
hard at work. too, so hat by next
spring there should be little danger
of further damage to tiocks and herds
oil danger to human being.-Gazette.

GERMANY'S
r ENIAN BLUNDER.

IT DEVELOPS, from a letter made
public the other day by Dr.. James
l. Barton, chairman OF the American
society for Armenian relief, that the
German government did not acquiesce
i'll the recent Armenian massacres.
DR.. Barton quotes a note filed OH Aug
ust 8 by the German goernment, in
which 1t stated that it felt itself
obliged TO demonstrate once more
against these acts Of horror"
And all these months the world has
held Germany guilty as the silent part
e of the Turks in the most mon.
strous persecution that any people has
been subjected to in modern times.
The prevalent impression seems to
have been created largely by Ger.
many's W spokesman, official and
unofficial. Count Won Reventlow par
ticularly denounced foreign criticisms
of the Turks, and insisted that Ger.
many must keep hands off and let
them have their own way. 1t is more
difficult, however to understand the
action of Ambassador Won Bernstorff.
who went out of mis- way to inform
the American public that the stories
OF Turkish atrocities against the AR.
menians were mere lies invented by
the allies.
The ambassador, apparently, was
not fully informed. But why did his
government, when it actually tried to
exert a humane, Christian influence
on the Turks, keep that fact from a
critical world and subject itself to
additional charges of barbarism?
It's another case of Germany blund.
cring in her relations with the rest
OF the world, and then lamenting that
she's misunderstood. What Germany
needs above everything else is an in.
telligent appreciation of foreign SEN
timent.
