Stupidity.
BY JOHN B. cHAPPLE.

Legs, legs, legs,
A city of silken legs,
And a city of windows Of food,
And a city of human bugs
That think that the only good
Is in legs, legs, legs,
And in food, food, food.
While the masters chuckle in glee
At what the bugs fail to see.

Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY DIR. HUGH $. CUMMING Surgeon General United States
 Public Health Service.

The PaStcur treatment will pre- vent rabies from developing if given early enough but it will not cure rabies once the disease has begun. It is prepared by inoculating q rab- bit with rabies virus from d dog.
 The inoculated rabbit dies in about 16 days and another rabbit is inoculatod from the first one. After several rabbits have been inoculated virus is obtained which will kill in from five to six days.
 The spinal cord of rabbit killed hy fixed virus is carefully dried for eight days. At the end of this time 1 this spinal cord is cut up into little i bits, ground up in salt solution, and Ia small portion is injected under the i skin of the person bitten.
 A few hours later q similar prepa- ration is given of a cord which has 1 been dried for only seven days. In succession and alteration, injections are given of cords which have been dried for six, five, four. three and even two days, the injections lasting for from 15 to 21 days. from one to three injections being given each day.
 The question Las been asked whether or not the treatment is en- .tircly ire" from danger The answer lis no. but the danger is small, Further, the danger from rabies is so much greater that the danger from the treatment may be ignored,
 If all dogs could be prevented from biting for 2 period of six months the disease would disappear. All ownerlcss dogs should be hu- namely destroyed. Dog owners should be made legally responsible for injuries inflicted by their dogs NAll dogs should he properly and humanely muz1led and kept muzzled wherever rabies exists.
 Finally, an attempt is being made to immunizc dogs against this dis ease. If this proves to be success tul and practicable il may prove the solution to the somewhat yeXinl problem Of the mad dog
