"Muizlc all the dogs in Chicago for a period of six months and there will be no more rabies," said Dr. A. Lagorio of the Fosteur institute of Chicago. "There could be no better time than the present for such a step, became it is during tho winter and early spring that rabies is most easi ly spread. Contrary to the super stition that the summer months are the ones during which a dog is most liable to become 'mad,' there are few genuine cases of rabies devel oped at that time. Warm weather seems to kill the rabies germ, while it thrives during the cola months. "It is not so mucb to prevent peo ple from being bitten tiiat I would suggest a muzzling measure, but to prevent the spread of the disease. A rabid dog is capable of inoculat ing another animal as much as eighty days before he show any pronounced symptoms, and during that time he may bite a great many dogs. "An absolute order that would provide for the muzzling of every dog in Chicago would wipe out every trace of rabies within three months. I am inclined to think that such move will be necessary within a short time." Chicago Tribune. Poets aa They Come and Se. "The great poets are born," re marked the sententious "person.
