hydrophobia- -phobia that they fur nish free of charge at the expense of the state, the Pasteur virus necessary for Pasteur treatment to any one who wants it. They will send 1t anywhere in the state on day or night call, SO that any doc- tor may administer 1t to patient without expense. Of course, this free virus from the state may not be available after the health authorities are satisfied enough people believe in the dire and ever present mnace of rabies. When that stage of popular education is achieved, the marketing of the Pasteur virus will probably be turned over to a few big shot bio- logical drug manufacturers who will fix the price, as they do the price of insulin. ...
 When a victim of any wound is in danger of horrible death from tetanus - lockjaw - the cause of which we know, the prevention of which is an immediate injection of anti-tetanus serum or antitoxin- does the state provide free serum? Does any health authority bestir himself to see that such victims re- ceive the benefit of lockjaw anti. toxin?
 QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
 Vague Language
 am 22, and for a year have been troubled with rheumatism of the heart to such an extent that I cannot work as yet. (no sigma. ture)
 Answer-I can only guess what you mean by rheumatism of the heart; and a doctor has to dc enough guessing when he has the patient under observation.
 Lactate and Carbonate
 What is the difference between calcium lactate and calcium carbon ate? (Mrs w. J. W.)
 Answer-If you have a knowledge of chemistry you know. If you haven't. 1t would be hard task to explain. The lactate is more solu- ble, and is generally preferable for systemic effects. Calcium carbon- ate is preferable as an ant-acid in the stomach.

SHOCK OFTEN GAUGE OF CHILD'S TEARS

Children often cry from nervous ness or shock. Even though they are not hurt at the time, a fall that will make man swear, or a woman scream, will send the child into a gale of tears.
 I never have known the ivolun- tary reactions of children to differ in any great degree from those of grownups. There is difference, of course, but 1t lies mostly in control and control takes lifetime plus, to learn.
 Johnny was getting into the boat, when suddenly, his daddy gave 1t a push that sent the little fellow sprawling. He wasn't hurt but he began to roar. Whats the matter?" demanded his impatient parent.

 Will Aibi Tears
 had been watching and knew that the bumped leg was only an excuse, because the child has great fortitude against pain. He was start led, that was 1t, startled and sud- denly angry. This type of anger is common to all of us. When startled, swiftly our thoughts travel from the door that hit us to the one who left 1t open; from the needle that bricks us to the one who tore his clothes. It is as natural to be outraged when shocked, hurt or not, as 1t is to breathe. +s
 An adult does not find it necessary to camouflage his reasons. The child does. And so we get the idea that he can't stand a little pain. While he is merely weeping of his shock, he is alibing the tears for all he's

 None of this is the psycology of the real cry-baby. That is something different. The habitual crier, is one who indulges in self pity, who is blessed by a perpetual unhappiness born of over r-sensitiveness and over- imagination.
 Tears of Rage
 The mother who gets discouraged because her boy cries when he meets with trifiing mishaps, may be cheer ed to know that his tears are not due to lack of courage but rather to quick rage, no matter what ex- cuse he gives for weeping. And this type of rage need not worry her too much either, as 1t is so common. Copyright 1887, NEA Service Incl

THE CASE OF THE RABID
 RnOcTER

THE CASE OF THE kAblD
 ROOSTER
 Not a bad title for an eerie mys- tery yarn, in some remote moor land place well off the main high way. But there is nothing mys- terious about this rooster He pecked at some one at an unfor- tunate moment, that is all. There was mad dog scare on and the politicians in the health department were pushing 1t for all they were worth. So when this unwary old rooster sought to uphold his dig nity by taking a peck at person who crowded him too much, the health authorities" had to act The poor old rooster was confined fol two months under the observation of veterinary, let us hope, lest the rooster were afflicted with rabies. It happened in Illinois around the metropolitan area where some strange things happen in the name of, and under the guise of, public health administration whether the big noise of the de- partment is running at the moment for coroner, governor, senator ol just running.
 My northern Illinois scout in- forms me that they get a good dea. more publicity on rabies in Illinois than they get on syphilis. They say that all animals have rabies, cats mice, rats, rabits, squirrels, hogs cows-but they lull the people into 8 feeling of security by assuring them they will be safe If all the dogs are shut up or killed.
 This attitude, observes my scout with annoying logic, is comparable with the control or prevention of smallpox by keeping the girls in a family where there Is a case con- fined to the house but letting the boys run freely at large.
