NOTE INCREASE OF RABIES
"Reminiscences of Dread Disease De-
clared to Be a Direct Result
of the War.

Among the plaques to follow the
great war, rabies must be reckoned
with. Already it has reappeared in
England, while from the very begin
ming an increase was apparent in
France. Before the struggle began
Belgium and the districts doomed to
be occupied in northern France
swarmed with dogs, and rabies was
sufficiently common This abundance
was due in part to the extensive use of
the dog as a draught animal in those
localities. After the invasion these
animals moved westward in large num-
bers. They appeared to breed as usual
and were under little or no police SUI
pervision although conditions for sup
pressing the danger were most favor
able. Rabies showed an increase from
the North sea to Switzerland. and was
carried far into the interior of France.
Here police protection was as good as
absent. The type too is virulent, as
shown by the short incubation period.
Lenofr, who writes to the above effect
in health bulletin distracted in the
Journal de Medicine ct de Chirurgie
Pratique, was the officer in charge of
an anti-rabies campaign, which sup
pressed the disease in South Africa

HOW BOOKS ARE sIERluzap

Deadly Gas Attack.

Almost the first thing to meet the
eyes of French hygfenists in their war
time campaign for protecting the
younger generation was their old en-
envy, the circulating book, well known
as carrier of disease. The many OBJ
vious solutions of the problem shared
one disadvantage while killing the
germs they destroyed the book also.
For the method perfected by Doctor
MarSoulan, and now practiced in the
Institute for Wounded and Inf1rm
Workmen at Montreuil, it is claimed
that for one-fourth of cent for each
book, and with safety to operators,
books can be sterilized without the
slightest injury Two pieces of very
simple apparatus are used, a beater
and diSinfectOr.
The beaten is long box open at one
with an ordinary stove. Inside of the
beaten are wooden rods so arranged
that the turning of a handle will cause
them to strike on the books placed on
a sliding frame As the rods beat the
books, the heavier particles of dust
fall out into a tray of dfsinfectant be-
low, and the lighter are carried by an
exhaust fan to a stove, where they are
burned.
The books are hung, open, by spring
clips from skeleton framework, and

which is equipped with tank contain

tsNo one but a fool will shut his
eyes to the faults of our democracy

tention is simp1y that no other system

nation as ours, and that none holds
out SO much promise for the future.
America has been a good place to

big rewards for men who do big con-

altogether too many mavericks loose

they have no claim. There would be
no real railroad mess, no necessity
for trying to pare down wages in
