Summer Danger from Dogs

when the owner petted a sick dog
and the dog licked the cut on the
hand). 1t travels along the merry.
paths to the brain. That is why it
usually takes 50 long to produce
symptoms. If it travelled by blood
vessels the incubation period
would be shorter.
Types of Rabies
In the dog the dumb form of
rabies occurs in only about 2O'
Of cases And these are often the
more dangerous kind because the
dog is not spotted as a mad dog
and may be approached and han
died when suddenly it will snap
and the damage is done. The
furious form in which the dog
is excited and restless and finally
becomes very agitated and goes
on a swapping and biting spree
occur in 500 of instances. Ere
quently, however, the two forms
merge.
The practical lessons are that
any dog that changes disposition
suddenly in hot weather is po-
tentially dangerous. If it bites a
human it should be chained up
until it dies or is proved non-
rabid. The diagnosis Of rabies can
be made by examining the dog's
brain, but the diagnosis is not al
ways easy yer by experts and it
is better to let the disease run it's
course so that the signs will be
most evident.
Any bite by an animal proved
rabid should call for Pasteur in
EQUATIONS. While gossipy rumors
will assert that the serum is dan
gerous there is no proof Of this
and the dangers OF letting the case
drift are greater. The first thing
to be done with any dog bite is to
sterilize or cauterize the wound
with alcohol or nitric acid to at
tempt to kill the virus at tho
source.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
l.. M.:-Hcv does one test the
urine for sugar! My mother has
diabetes and it is most inconven-
lent to 60 to a doctor from where
l live.
Answer: All diabetes, or a near
relative, should learn how to test
the urine for sugar at home. 1t is
very simple. Any druggist will
supply you with Benedict's solu-
ton, a test tube, an alcohol lamp
and a medicine dropper. Put a
teaspoonful Of Benedict's solution
in the test tube. hold it over the
fame Of the lamp until it comes to
a boil, then drop a few drops Of
urine into it and boil again. IL
