WHEN DOGS GO MAD.
SEVERAL POPULAR ERRORS ON THE
SUBJECT.
The Madness Often Exist Only in the
Minds of Brutal Men—Unerring Symp-
toms of Babies Described in Detail—M.
Pasteur and Hie Work.
Almost every day the daily papers
contain bold headlines announcing that a
mad dog has been killed after a "fearful
struggle." If you skip the sensational
headings and highly colored features it
usually happens that there is nobody to
be found who knows whether the poor,
brutally killed animal really was mad or
not. It seems as if the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals might
bestir itself a little in behalf of the much
abused beasts: There does not appear
to be the slightest trace of pity or com-
passion in men who chase some fright-
ened stray dog into a corner and after
they have metcilessly beaten it to death
'gloat over their noble deed. Who-
ever heard of any officer be-
longing t� the society just men-
tioned interesting himself in on
of these daily occurrences. There is no
-reason why a police officer ehould think
himself justified in killing an animal

nays. in July and August, says the
scientist, ell kinds of precautions are
taken which no one thinks of in Novem-
ber or December. Now the simple fact
is that the dog .days have no more
to do with the rabies than the
moon has to do with lunacy. - Dogs are
liable to attacks in every Month of the
year, but it so happens that July and on
August are precisely the mths. in
which the fewest cases oecur. The re-
cords of the veterinary schoole of Alfort,
Toulouse, Paris, London and Lyons show
net it is not in the hottest mentiei. but
in the wettest mouths. that the great
majority ot cases are 80b11. :1;1 April,
November and December the r ?eorded
ca -se are double and triple thuee in June,
July and August. That the heat of the
weather is not the cause of rabies is
strikingly proved by the fact that in hot
countries the disease is rare and in some
even unknown. Thirst, however in-
tense, is incapable of producing rabies.
Dogs have been subjected to the cruel
experience of complete abstinence from
water when chained. to a wall under a
burning sun. They died from thirst, but
showed no symptoms of rabies.
.Another error is to suppose that mad
dogs foam at the mouth. It is only at
one stage of the • disease that the rabid
dog shows any foam. A. perfect healthy
dog often shows an abundance of foam
at the mouth after a hard run. •
As it is most important that the symp-
toms ofrrabies in dogs should be remem-
bered, the following of the most notable
are given for the guidance of both those
who are fond of dogs and those who fear
them.
BEGINNING OF RABIES.
At the commencement of the disease
the animal's temper becomes changed;
it is dull, gloomy and silent, seeks soli-
tude and withdraws into the most ob-
scure corners. It is fidgety arid :restless,
goes here and there, lies down and gets
up, keeps conetantly prowling about and
cannot rest long, in one place. It sniffs
and scratches with its fore paws, and ap-
pears to try to hide its head under its
chest. Often the affected dog starts as
if haunted by phantoms; it barks, and
snaps at nothing. • It always has .a
gloomy, Sullen aspect. The mad dog
has no dread of water, but, on the con-
trary, will greedily swallow it.
When the _desire to bite, which is one
of the essential characteristics of rabies
at a certain stage, begins to manifest
EXCITED—ONE EFFECT OF INOCULATION.
that is doing everything to drive
It into madness. It is of course,
every dog owner's duty to keep
his animal chained or provided
with a muzzle, but these precautio ns are
altimes of no avail, A fair illustration
of the utter senselessness of the "mad -
dog" Beare was had very recently. A
handiome young setter dog was playing
in his master's yard when some boys
stopped and began to tease him. Sud-
denly the dog leaped the fence and ran
barking at his tormentors. One of these
hit the dog with a stone, while the
others yelled. The animal turned to
run. the boys saw their opportunity and
set up a howl of "mad dog." In an in-
stant the hunt was on ; every man or
boy in the dog's path shot or threw
something at him. Block after block
down LaSalle street did the ever increas-
ing crowd chase the brute. Finally',
driven to desperation, the dog dashed
clear through a kitchen window. Here
the united force of threepolicemen arm-
ed with clubs and revolvers managed to
kill the "ferocious brute." This dog was
not mad in the least; if a kind-hearted,
thoughtful .person had given the poor
hunted animal a place of shelter from
its mad pursuers it would have recovered
from its fright in a few minutes. Now
"Handsome Jack" is mourned by its lit-
tle golden -haired mistress, who refuses
to be comforted.

PREJUDICED AGAINST DOGS.
There is a large number of persons
who have a strong prejudice against
dogs for SOMA reason or other. Nobody
denies their right to entertain whatever
opinions they choose provided only such
opinions are tempered with a due allow-
ance of good common sense. But in
nine cases out of ten such people lean to-
ward the extreme ; it is impossible for
them -to see any good in what they con-
demn, be it dogs or men. Reason never
enters their heads. If their neighbor
should happen to haVe a dog, especially
if it be a fine animal, they immediately
cast about to get him out of the way.
Their children are taught to regard
"man's best friend" as they would a rat-
tlesnake, and are never slow in taking
their cue. To throw stones or in any
other way abuse their neighbors' and
other dogs is with these cranks perfectly
legitimate pleasure. It is such hare-
-brained people who to a large extent are
responsible for the many reported cases
of the "mad dog" epidemic.
There is some excuse for people to
have a most wholesome fear of being
bitten by any animal, be it mad or
otherwise, but nobody should deliberate-
ly join in the cruel pleasure of chasing a
poor dog through the streets because
someone has raised the cry "mad dog."
So little was hydrophobia understood
previous to Pasteur's investigations that
it was regarded by highly competent
physicians and physiologists as a variety
of lockjaw or tetanus. It was thought
that the disorder of the nervous system
was caused by the infliction of .a punc-
tured inflammatory wound, in which a
specific :virus or poison took no part. It
was not till within the past ten years
that th4ianatter was given serious atten-
tion. he eminent French scientist,
Pasteur., has done more benefit to man-
kind in trying to find a cure for this
dread disease than any livincrnare Now
It is an established fact that in order to
produce hydrophobia in a man he must
first be bitten by a dog, wolf, pig, cat, or
any other animal which is suffering from
a well -marked disease known as "rabies."
On the Chicago Drummer.
"We had some fun last week," said the
drummer to the hotel clerk Saturday inight
after he had taken his Supper and his week's
work was done.
" Oo on," suggested the clerk, encourag-
ingly.
"It was up at a station on the Flint and
Pere Marquette Railroad, where there is a
saw mill and a store or two, and timber is
plenty. There were three or four of us,
one of the party a young Chicago drurnmer,
who was as fresh as Lake Miohigau. He
was jollying everybody as we were waiting
for a delayed train, and at last he tackled
the man who checked the baggage.
"I say,' he said to him with a winkat the
rest of us, 'can I get a trunk checked! here
"Certainly, if you've got a tickek'• re -
for Detroit ?"
plied the baggsge man.
"That's all right; I've got the tloket ;
but checking the trunk is what bothers
me."
" Don't worry about that, mister,' said
the simple-minded baggage man, can
cheek any sort of trunk you've got.'
"This is such a trunk, as I never saw
checked,' explained the Chicago fresh.,
"Bring on your trunk, I'll fix it,' insisted
the baggage man.
"I'll bet you $5 you won't do it, bluffed
the Chicair man.
MAD.
itself, the animal first attacks inert
bodies. -It seems to delight in gnawing
wood. leather, Its chain,. carpets, the
wood of its kennel, straw, coal, earth,
etc. The sensibility of the rabid dog is
greatly blunted when it is struck, burned
or wounded ; it emits no cry of pain or
sign as when it suffers or is afraid in
health. One of the most important in-
dieeLions of madness is that the sick dog,
is always very much enraged at the sight
of an animal of its own species. Even
ween the disease -is but little developed an
it will, show this strange tipathy.
The voice of the rabid dog is of a
marked contrast and can easily be de-
tected. The sound. is very husky and
jerking. These may be taken as the
most important symptoms of this dread
disease, and are the results of long obser-
vation and study by a noted English
scientist.
The result of M. Pasteur's experimental
study of rabies and hydrophobia has now
reached a practical importance. Through
his treatment, the fatal cases of hydro-
phobia have been reduced to an ex-
tremely small percentage of wha L they
u:;.-(1 to be, and the eminent scienmi-a
is
adding flesh discoveries to this brancA
from thee to time. Ifghis present lata
investigation?, are -crowned with suc-
cess, there will be no need of much fear
of the consequences of a dog bite in the
future. --Chicago Herald.

"The baggage man replied by taking
out a fiver and putting it in my hands and
Chipsgo came up smiling and put his there
too,
"Wait, he said to the baggage man with
another wink at me, till I go backto the
hotel and get it.'
"Then he disappeared, and in abolit ten
minuteahe pulled up alongside of the plat-
form with a team of cattle dragging the
trunk of a tree about twenty-five feet long
and two feet in diameter at its ernallest

at sight of water. This is not simply a
misnomer, but misleading in a very seri-
ous way. The name hydrophobia having
become fixed in people's minds, and the
idea that rabid dogs dread water having
beccime part and. parcel of the general
belief, the sight of a dog eagerly lapping
water. or willingly plunging into it natur-
ally leads ninety-nine out of a hundred
to exclaim: "He drinks; there is no dan-
ger."
'The fact is, says this authority, that a
burning thirst is one of the characteristic
symptoms of rabbles in its early stages.
On the other hand, the name hydropho-
bia is -very aPpropriate when applied to
man, as an indefinable dread of water or
any liquid is the characteristic yf the
later stage of the disease when afflicting
a human subject. In dogs so far from a
dread of water being a reliable symptom
it is one which shows itself but in ex-
tremely rare cull.Another popular error attributes the
madness of does to the heat of the doe'

Girls in Sleeping -Car.
The wise girl knows that nothing is quite
so desirable for wear in the sleepieg-oar as a
wrapper of dark colored flannel. It may be
stated as a positive fact that women who try
to make themselves look coquettish in a
sleeping -car, and wear elaborate negliges or
lace trimmed wrappers, show extremely bad
taste, writes Ruth Ashmore in a eeasonable
article on "The Art of Traveling Easily "in
the June Ladies Home Journal. Experi-
ence hes taught that a wrapper of soft flan-
nel in stripes of black and blue, made in the
simplest fashion, is most useful. When she
is ready to go to bed, and the porter ar-
ranges her berth for her, she goes to the
toilet -room, taking with her her shawl -
