stream to the nervous system. The

To the Vet
The most important thing to do
after an animal has bitten or
otherwise infected a human being
i3;;to sec that the animals carcass
is: taken to a responsible veteri-
nary or health department pathof-
ogist. It is by no means best to
kill the ANNA but put it under
observation for ten days or two
weeks. If typi.Il symptoms devel-
op, treatment Of humans who were
exposed need not be further de-
layed. Typical changes in the
nervous system can BE- seen under
thp microscope - the so-called
nGgri bodies. Unless the animal is
prepared and examined there is no
basis whatever for arriving at a
judgment of whether preventive
incubation should be done or not.
For actual bites or scratches

proves not to be rabid. For most,
however, it is usually safe to de-
lay treatment until a definite dag

have had intimatetcontact with an
animal that later becomes Tabid,
treatment is advisable even if no
open sore or bite is present.
Judgment Difficult
Treatment is not advised follow.
ing contamination of old cuts,
sores or abrasions; "pinches" in
which the skin is broken but the
clothing neither torn nor pene-
trated; handling, eating with,
sleeping with or kissing any ami
NAL which is living fourteen days
from the time of such contact;
bites from feas from rabid ami
mails.
The cases where Judgment is
difficult are nervous people who
have an exaggerated dread of ra-
bies and who have done no more
than handle the rope of the animal
which afterwards went rabid. For
such cases it is best to acquiesce
and give the treatment.
Complete reliance on the effec-
tiveness of anti-rabies vaccine is
never justified, and cauterization
of wounds made by the animal,
with strong nitric acid, is neces-
sary.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Reader-"A young girl has used
so much medicine for sinus trouble
that her face has become blue. Is
there any cure for this?"
Answer-I presume that this is
due to the deposit of silver salts
from the use of argyrol in the nose.
Some methods of treatment have
been advocated but they are un-
certain and troublesome. This
serves as very valuable warning
against the continued and indiS-
criminate use of silver salts in the
nose. Many cases of this kind have
been reported.
