It may prove interesting to our readers, to insert in these pages an account of the first two cases of rabies known in Philadelphia, and as related to us by a venerable and much-esteemed citizen, who is well known in the scientific world as a gentleman of deep research, and we agree with him in opinion, that this much-dreaded disease is most frequently the result of like causes, or rather that like symptoms often induce the belief of the presence of this malady, when, in fact, no such disease does exist.

The dog is continually fighting at the corners of his mouth, and the countenance is expressive of intense anxiety, although not of the same irritable character as in rabies. I was once requested to meet a medical gentleman in consultation respecting a supposed case of rabies.

In case a person is bitten by a dog, the animal should be confined until the disease is well advanced and killed or allowed to die. The head should then be removed and forwarded to the State laboratory, or wherever such examinations are made. The treatment is preventive. Wherever an outbreak of rabies occurs all dogs should be confined on the owner's premises or muzzled.

There is no more danger from a dog-bite, unless the dog is suffering from the disease called rabies or is "mad," than from any other lacerated wound. The suspected animal should be at once placed in confinement and watched, under proper safeguards, for the appearance of any symptoms that indicate rabies.

But it was true, the doctor might not be at home. Assuming it to be a bite of rabies, minutes lost meant the terrible: Edwards bowed his head to that. On the other hand, he foresaw the closest of personal reasons for hesitating to be in agreement with the lady wholly. The countess was not so much a persuasive lady as she was, in her breath and gaze, a sweeping and a wafting power.

Marco answered, quite casually, "just that you can't set savage thoughts loose in the world, any more than you can let loose savage beasts with hydrophobia. They spread a sort of rabies, and they always tear and worry you first of all." "What do you mean?" The Rat gasped out.

And he must have this bite seen to at once. She lived not five minutes away. He must come with her. She had an aunt who behaved like a mother and a mother who behaved like a genteel visitor, and they both agreed with Amanda that although Mr. Walter Long and his dreadful muzzles and everything did seem to have stamped out rabies, yet you couldn't be too careful with a dog bite.

See Hunt's "Popular Romances of the West of England." Black's "Folk-medicine," p. 193. "Rabies or Hydrophobia," T. M. Dolan, 1879, p. 238. Black's "Folk-medicine," p. 193. Many of the legends of the plant-world have been incidentally alluded to in the preceding pages.

For Bud, save when the liquor conquered him, was a kindly soul; even lovable as a faithful dog might be, though of that canine virtue people thought less than of his occasional rabies. He had talked with Alexander always impersonally a scant half dozen times in his life but since boyhood he had dreamed of her as a peasant may dream of exalted nobility and his life had never known any other dream.

The rabies in a human being is a most unnatural and ignoble thing. Yet common parlance likens anger to it. It is safe to say that no one has yet been born that never yielded, more or less, to the sway of this passion. Everybody gets angry.
