Mfciuui&K BAD . V MIND GOING B _______ Bat Mrs. Perry of RoliU, Built Up Hot Stuttered Narrow Systea By Taking CardnL HSf i ■ Rollta, Tenn. —"I suffered with sick headache for three years," says Mrs. |.I«I« Perry, In a letter from this place. 1 was so nervous at times, I could hardly bear it. I had the blues, and everybody thought I was losing my mind. My memory was bad. I had pains in my aide, and I was hardly able to go. I would have been In my grave if I had not taken Cardul. Now I am Stronger than I ever was before, and I feel like a new person. I am thankful for what Cardul has done for me. I wish all women who suffer would take Cardul, and be hap py and healthy." Cardul's success In benefiting and curing slik and ailing women, is due to the fact that It Is a building tonic for the nerves, aa well as for the phy sical system. Being composed exclusively of vege table ingredients, which act gently and sympathetically In a natural way. It does its work safely, reliably, and without bad after effect**. Fifty years of success prove these (acts. Isn't It reasonable to believe that Cardul will help you? Ask your drug gist. It Is certainly worth trying. W.

T. | TAKE A DOSE OF c piSO'S K. The bcst medicine * 9 r eoucHi a coupt is YOUR BOG GOING MAD ? A NY ONE can tell when a ' Is going mad and pre /A qbv vent him , from doing Bj uarm. The symptoms de- Vgf W vclop over a period of from three to eight days 2% before the biting mania eelzes him. Meanwhile 1 ■^= r —- Jhe gives a hundred warn- ings. All that Is neces sary is to chain him. That this piece of information has not been given publicity before, ex cept in the case of a few New Eng land towns, is due to the general lack of caution, but, with the alarming In crease of rabies both In anlmala and men. It has become essential. Too many clogs are going mad every day. Something will have to be done about It. The disease is now bo prevalent that it is pertinent to ask: Is your dog going mad loo? This question may strike you as un necessarily alarming, especially If you happen to live where there have never been any mad dogs. In that case you are to be congratulated. Places with such a record are becoming rare. Your turn may be next. - Left to spread as far as it might, with practically no attempt to stop it, rabies during tho past few years has become thickly disseminated over the whale of the United States, except the far West. Along the Atlantic coast and In the middle West, both North and South, there is hardly a district unaffected by It, and each additional dog that goes mad is carrying it as far as ho can travel in two or three days' time. It has arrived at the point whore It threatens everyone, and. If It wero not for tho twenty-five or more Institutions which are now giving the Pasteur treatment in the affected dis tricts, tho number of -human deaths would bo startling. Three years ago rabies began to press Itself upon public attention. Tip to that time It had never appeared as much of n danger In America, ab though mad dogs had shown them selves at Intervals for more than a century. Each in Itself had always been a terrifying object, but the num bers were comparatively scarce. 'Conservative estimates of the med ical men and boards of health place the number of deaths annually from this dread disease at 20,000. The question of what to do is also before this country. Two courses are open: policing and a study of the dis ease which may lead to its prevention. Effective policing has always meant a rigid muzzle and leash law and the chloroforming of all stray dogs. Put It has been proved to be successful. After centuries of terror over rabid animals, England, since 1897, hns suc ceeded by this means In remaining rid of them entirely, and only a few months ago when some of the virus was needed in a research laboratory in Liverpool It had to be obtained out side the country. Berlin has practical ly eradicated the disease within the city following an epidemic during which a dog went mtfiLon the street's every day. Paris, overcoming; a sen timental opposition, reduced tho mad (ifigs from r>f>o during the year 1901 to 10 In 1907, simply by compelling owners to look after their pets. Attempts to stop the disease In this country have been spasmodic, and hysterical. It has required the death of sotne well-known person or some' unusual circumstance to awaken the police. There are three types of'rabies: furious, which we recognize; dumb, which we do hot; and a mixture of the two. The furious Is the most Import ant. Tho tlrst action on tho part of a dog which points to furious rabies Is a marked and unusual restlessness lie jumps up constantly without cause and Is hypersensitive to light and sound. He snoops In dark corners and licks qyerythlng nervously. He be comes effusive In his affection, and his master, wondering, feels that there Is trouble, mid nsks the poor dumb brute what alls him. Then, all at once, his disposition changes. He snaps suddenly, and the next Instant wags his tall In apology for his action. In n moment he snaps again. Meanwhile he eats and drinks normally nnd shows no sign of paraly sis, which we have been taught to look for when rabies Is suspected, The restlessness lncrei-ses In a way that can hardly fall of notice, and then a night comes when he gives lit tle gasping hofrls, which Found as If they had been choked oft In the mid dle. Anyone who has ever heard this howl knows instinctively that theyo la something wrong. There is no confus ing It with the ordinary barking at passing or imaginary objects, and it sounds nothing at all lfke baying at , the moon. Tho howls are senseless and the hearer realizes It. At first tho dog remains near the house. giving hl3 master ample time to take action. In fact he forces the attention of everyone within hearing nnd spreads a vague uneasiness. His howls get on the nerves of those with In doors and they are rather apt tp call out to him to be still. Some com ment Is probably made on the peculiar effect his howling has. A timid mem ber of the household suggests that the dog is going mad, but the ldea Is scouted. When this has gene on half the r.lght, and thS family is distraught for lack of sleep, the howls begin to grow fainter ar.d the family falls Into a peaceful sleep. Rut the dog has gene away to menace tho surrounding coun try for fifty or'a hundred miles. He warders aimlessly, tho (.Iseaee grip ping hlu tighter hour ty hour, and. BY ARNOUOSCti when the morning com*;s, he la foam ing at the mouth—a mad dog. The bit ing mania is on him, and ho attacks everything, cattle, horses, dogs, cats, children. Fortunately tho only other animal which gots the biting mania is the horse. The disease Is spread in almost every case by dogs. After two or threo days, if he has not meanwhile been shot, ho comes back, but, by this time, ho has done his damage. He is weak In tho hind legs, then In tho fore legs. His eyes become covered with a film and his under jaw hangs down. Before long general paralysis sets in and ho dies. The warning which can hardly , fail to bo noticed Is tho howl, and, when his owner hears this, It is high time to act. Ho can bo caught without much dangor of lilting, as a mad dog only attacks his master when tho disease has complete ly captured Ills mind. Hut the saliva Is already virulent, and gloves should be worn. Otherwise a little of It pene trating the skin or rubbed from the hand to a freohly shaved chin is enough to communicate the disease. In dumb rallies tho first sign Is the dropping of tho jaw. When thlH hap pens to a dog, It Is only necessary to place a dish of water before him to discover whether he has rabies. He will lick at It, If rabid, but he will not be able to swallow, and the amount In the dlth will remain' tho same. As he cannot bite ho is not very dangerous, but his saliva Is as virulent as If he had furious rabies, and he should be kept apnrt. Vsually a dog with dumb rabies Is believed to have a bono in his throat, and some kindly person puts a hand In his mouth— literally into the jaws of death. In mixed rabies the dog Is more or less furious. He show:* Some of tho symptoms of both the other^forms. About tho only other diseases to which dogs are prone show them selves In a way not to be confused with rabies. (lastrlc trouble and rheumatism appear much as In human beings, and distemper Is accompanied by xouglilng and sneezing, a high fever and running at the eyes. Tho cardinal rule Is never to kill a biting dog If possible to avoid it. Catch and chain him, and wait to see If the symptoms of rabies develop. If ho Is all right at tho end of a week those he bit may breathe more free ly, but, If he becomes rabid, they have no time to lose. ; —» With, tho Increase In rabies some knowledge of what to do for a dog's victims is as essential as a pocket sup ply of potassium permanganate in the rattlesnake country. Dr. George Q. Rambaud, of tho Pasteur Institute of New York, raw the following direc tions ns first aid to the Injured: "The wounds should be treated like any other Infected wounds. Bleeding should be encouraged, as a free flow -of blood may carry off with It a great part of tho virus. Then the wound should be thoroughly washed with any good antiseptic* solution. The colloidal silver »r silver-salt prepara tions are to be preferred, but. In their absence. lodine, a four per cent solu tion of carbolic acid, or even lemon jufce, are useful." Cauterization, the oldest treatment, Now Joe is "It" Joo leaver involuntarily discovered the best placo to hide that he ever came across while playing hide-and seek with a number of playmates at Third avenue and One Hundredth street, near an excavation for pneu matic ttubes for the post office. Joe, who Is four years old, disappeared from the ken of Isadora Ross, who was "it," as completely as though he had boon drawn into the tubes. But it was not the tubes that got him. "IsBy" had just finished counting when he caught sight of Joe ducking behind a Third Avenue car. Wb was not sure, and ran around to the other side of tho car to look, but.there was no Joe there. • Issy" went and toid Joe's mother he was lost. Twelve blocks away a number of boys ran out and pointed at the fiwnt cf the car and Dr. Rainbaud decries because, ho says, it gives a false sense of security. But Dr. Anna Williams, who Is devoting her life to the study of rabies In the fesearch laboratory of the. New York Board of Health, says she is willing to take her chances on cauterization, If tho wound Is not too deep. Tho average person, however, will prefer to tkke the Pasteur treatment. Since its discovery In 1884 It has been tried on more than 250,000 people, and of those who took it only one-half of one per cent have died. On the subjoct of the disease Itself there Is not much room for question. The existence of the virus has been proved beyond all reasonable doubt by inoculnting a whole series of dogs, one from another, and having each one de velop tho same symptoms and die in the same way. But, what has stood in the way of a greater knowledge, aside from tho treatment, has boen the doubt as to the nature of the virus. Some hold it is a bacterium, tho low est form of plant life, and others that it is a protozoon, the lowest form of animal life. Bacteria are subject to epidomlcs; the known protozoons are not. The layman can only hope for the protozoon conclusion. Tho Pasteur treatment normally consists of injections into the flank of an omulsion of small portions of the spinal cord of inoculated rabbits dis solved in a salt solution. For bites on the hand or body, if tho patient begins the treatment within a week, it is con tinued for eighteen days. If the delay Is greater, it Is continued for several days longer. Pasteur himself laid down the rules which hnve been fol lowed more or less closely ever since. But experience has shown that this treatment Is much less successful for bitei on tho face, where the reach to the nerve center is shorter. To meet the emergency face bites have given rise to, within tho past two years a new treatment has been developed which immunizes the patient In twelve days. It Is rather heroic, but It has been used u great many times without bad results, saving the lives of many who had llfo time to spare. Instead of using virus the virulence of which has been allowed to die out, as In the old method, the emulsion consists of n serum obtained from sheep strongly immunized against rabies mixed with fresh virulent virus. The I'asteur treatment is only pre ventive. The serum meets and grap ples with the virus on its way up the nerve to the brain. Onco It has reach ed the nerve center, it defies treatmnt. But, if you do not know you have been exposed, your first Intimation is after the virus Is in tho brain engaged In its fateful work. Death front rabies has become too common to occupy a front-page posi tion In the newspapers. That alone shows tho prevalence of the disease. Tomorrow or next week, when you read of little children being bitten on tho street, remember that one of those children might have been yours. Imagine, then,_ the furious animal rushing at your child, tearing at his face and body!—la tho picture too hor rible? It Is happening every day. Your child may be next. shouted to the motorman.. He brought his car to a stop. When he got out he found a small boy whimpering onf the fender. That was Joe.—New York Tribune. Not the Means, But End. "Senator," the beauUfui girl in quired, "are you in favor of being elected by the direct votes of the peo ple." "My dear young lady," the states man replied, "I am enthusiastically in favor of being elected thus or in any other way that can be arranged." The world Is divided into two olass f»r those who go ahead and do some thing, and those wbo sit still and In quire. "Why wasn't It done the other way?"—O. W. Holmes. Hood's sarsaparma For All Spring Blood Diseases - and Ailments '-••, 1 • . » Possesses medicinal merit Peculiar to Itself and has an unequaled record of cures. Take it this spring, in usual liquid form or tablets known as Sarsatabs. Bprlng Humors are due to the im pure, impoverished, devitalized condi tion of the blood brought about by the unheplthful modes of living dur ing the winter, too close confinement, too little outdoor air and exercise, too heavy diet. Hood's Sarsaparllla cures them and builds tip the whole system. SUNSHINE AND GOOD HEALTH Wherever Sun's Rsys Penetrate Hu man Life Is Quickened and Health and Happiness Promoted, The sunlight, with its mellowing warmth and radiance, Is one of the great essentials to good health. Wherever it penetrates, in prudently regulated moderation, It quickens hu man life, promotes health and happi ness, and may be truly regarded as one of the best friends of man and beast. The common practice of pro viding blinds, shutters, curtains and other means for shrouding the win dows and shutting out the sunshine, Is undoubtedly a great mistake, and makes for physical weakness and 111 health. More window light; more sun shine, and not less, Is what we re quire. Let all your apartment*, kitch en, sitting rooms, parlors and bed rooms, too, be flooded with sunlight as much as possible. CURE THAT SORE THROAT Sore throat is inflammation of the mucous membrane of the throat, and if this membrane happens to be at all sensitive a predisposition to sore throat will exist. Paxtlne Toilet Antiseptic is both a preventative and a cure for sore throat because it possesses extraor dinary cleansing, healing and germi cidal qualities. Just a little in a glass of water, used as a gargle, will quick-„ ly relieve all soreness and strengthen tho mucous membrane of the throat, and thus overcome all tendency to soro throat. Paxtlne is far superior to liquid an tiseptics or Peroxide for all toilet and hygienic uses. Paxtlne may be obtained at any drug store, 25 and 50c a box, or sent postpaid upon receipt of price by The Paxton Toilet Co., Boston, Masa. Send for a free sample. ■>» Barmaids In Bouth Australia. South Australia Is suffering from a barmaid famine. Two years ago bar maids were abolished In that Btato by act of parliament. No more could bo legally engaged, but those already em ployed coulcf remain on condition that they register themselveo. There are now only 400 of them left, and the competition for their serv ices is such that their wages have Jumped from 25 shillings to £3 a week. The hotels that have had to employ barmen report a considerable change for the worse In their receipts. Bold Scribe. "Ho, hum!" ejaculated honest Farm er Hornbeak, who had encountered in the village newspaper an example of the perversity which the linotype sometimes displays.

And, by Jolly! he says it as if he meant it, too!" Puck. Where Surgery Falls Short. "Surgery," said Simeon Ford at a dinner in New York, "accomplishes wonders nowadays. Hearts are sewed up: the appendix is removed; the large Intestine is done away with. But—" The noted humorist smiled. "But will the time ever come when surgery will be able to remove the cheek of a young man or the Jaw of an old woman?"— New York Sun. A FOOD BTORY Makes a Woman of 70 "On* In 10,000." The widgw of one of Ohio's most distinguished newspaper editors and a famous leader in politics in his day, says she is 70 years old and a "stron ger woman will find In ten thousand," and she credits her fine physical condition to the use of Grape- Nuts: "Many years ago I had a terrible fall which permanently Injured my stomach. For years I lived on a preparation of corn starch and milk, but It grew so repugnant to me that I had to give it up. Then I tried, one after another, a doxen different kinds of cereals, but the process of diges tion gave me great pain. "It was not until I began to use Grape-Nuts food three years ago that I found relief. It haa proved, with the dear Lord's blessing, a great boon to me. It brought me health and vigor such as I never expected to again en joy, and In gratitude I never fail to sound. Its praises." Name given by Postum Co., BatUe Creek, Mich. "There's 4 Reason."
