f HTDEOrHOBIA A FAKE. SO SAYS SUPERINTENDENT HAN i KIN50N, OF THE A. S. P. C T. A. Ba Kmi a Cod Deal About Vox Doeaat Bella) That nj of Tbasa Om Mali Hydrophobia I Imacfnatioa. Somam of Hla Exocrtoneoa With Cases. "Can a man scare himself to death after bavin? been bitten by a do? which Isn't mad?" I asked Superintendent Kan kdnson, of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, one day. he sat in hU little officeon Twenty-second street. Mr. Kanlrinson ia a good natured looking man with reddish hair, who is afraid of nothing and nobody; certainly not of hydrophobia quacks. "Why. certainly." he said, with de cision. "That man down in Asbury Park who was bitten by a cat was cared to death. He never had hydro phobia. He died cf nervous prostration brought on by worry over an imaginary danger. His friends were all pitying him and hoping he wouldn't die, and phropheoying that be would, and he was a man of nervous temperament, as edu cated people sometimes are, and it sim ply killed him. I suppose be read np in the Ixjoks about hydrophobia and it turned his heal That's all there was about it Do yon remember what a great howl there was about those New ark bovs who were bitten by a m:il dog and who were seat over to Pasteur to be 'cured?" " -Why, of course; who doesn't?" "Weil, it's quite easy to cure a disease that never existed. Those boys never had hydrophobia and never would have had it. The dogs didn't Lave it Dur ing thit excitement we went to Newark and found a lot of dogs shut np. We asked to be allowed to take them away to our stables, but the people wouldn't have it. Do yon know what was done with those dogs? After the excitement was all over they were given tack to their owners, every one or tht.-in. Not one was killed. Xot one of them had anything worse than a fit. Why, our nit'n are courtantly handling dogs, get bitten again and agaiu. but they never dream of having hydrophobia. It's a myth. There isn't any such thing." A CASE OF IMAGINATION. ' " Then you don't believe in the exist ence of 6ui h a disease?" I asked, think ing that, as Mr. Hankinscn probably knows ui'ire about animals than any other mau in America, he must be good authority. No, i don't There may be such a disease, but 1 don't liclieve it I never saw a case or knew of one positively." - How about these doctors who cure it?" 1 asked. They don't cure anything. I asked a man who makes a specialty of treating hydrophobia, as he calls it, if he ever saw one single case of hydrophobia to which he could swear, ne refused to answer, but he told me this story: A man came to him one day in terrible distress. He had been bitten by a dog; he feared madness; he could not sleep at night and was afraid he was going to die. He begged the doctor to treat him. The doctor said it was too the period of inocula tion had passed, and it would be no good now. If he had hydrophobia there was no way to stop it "The man went away, but came back the next day nearly frantic He hadn't slept a wink and begged the doctor to do something for him. So the doctor took the man into his operating room and gave him a hypodermic injection of water Just- pure Croton water. He went away, slept for the first time in two weeks and came back the next day for more water, and again the next, and was soon perfectly cured. The doctor told me that himself, and he professes to cure hydrophobia. SHE WAS HAD. "Why," continued Mr. Hankinson, C've had a woman in hysterics right ia that chair you're sitting in because a dog had bitten her. She wanted me to kill the dog. I wouldn't do it Then she creamed in a terrible way. When she topped I said to her: 'Madam, yon ought to be ashamed of yourself. A woman of your intelligence! You've interrupted the business of the office and drawn a big crowd under the window to listen to your yelling, and all for a whim. Some body told you yon were going to go mad, and now yon think you ought to go mad and you'll be mad if you don't go mad. Von just go home and say nothing about It and you'll be all right' And she did it "Another woma . brought her boy in. He had been bitten by a mad dog, and she wanted it shot, she said. The buy looked perfectly welL " 'Now, ljok here,' said I, 'you've been talking a good deal to the boy about this, haven't yon? And the neighbors have too? And you've been telling him that he's likely to have hydrophobia, haven't you?" 'Yes, of course, we've talked about it,' said she. 'Exactly,' said L 'You've been tak ing the precise course likely to drive him mad or make him think himself so. Yon have been trying to scare him -to death. If he were to go crary it would be your fault How is it, bub,' said I, turning to the little fellow. 'Yon don't expect to go mad, do yon? "No, he didn't think he should, he said. He didn't feel any different He was a brave little fellow. So I sent them home, too. and that was the last 1 heard of it The dog had had a fit, that was all. It's a shame the way people will suoot valuable dogs just for a fit that might easily be cured or avoided." New York World. A surgeon reports that a young lady swallowed a hairpin while dressing. Three doctors said it was only indigna tion ou her part The hairpin was eventually found to have become lodged in the back part of her nose. It is stated that the flesh of animals killed by electricity is much tenderer than if the animals are killed in the ordinary way. This is especially the cas in regard to fowls. "Wham." Most people who read a paper would like to have it come to their hands with out any typographical or editorial er rors. This is quite possible when all the following conditions come together: When the contributor has written cor rectly. When he has written the correct thing distinctly. When the compositor has only the cor rect letters in the different cases. When he does not take letters from a a wrong case. When he 6ets them correctly. When the "reader corrects every er ror. When the compositor corrects the "rough proof" properly. When the "reader" reads the corrected proof attentively. When the compositor corrects the sec ond proof properly. When the revised proof is carefully "read." When the "reader" has sufficient time to do this. And when a dozen other circumstances work together for good. Exchange. Cement Stronger Thaa SUraa. From a number of careful tests made to ascertain the precise strength of an chor bolts set in Portland cement in the tydinary way, the fact appeared that the joint was really stronger than the stone. In this demonstration 2-inch iron rods were set into the stones some Hi inches, and then subjected to the test The first rod had a screw thread to improve the grip of the cement, and the cement be gan to yield at a load of 32.000 pounds, the breaking of the stone taking place at 60,000 pounds. With a plain, smooth rod it was found that the cement began to yield at a load of 84,000 pounds, but the rock broke at 67,000 ponnds. Thus, though the strength of the cement joint was not developed, it was inferred that, in a suitable setting, the cement joint on a smooth rod might be made to break the rod. New York Sun. PEKIQUE T03ACCO. The Eteaoon for lu IVcmliar Flavor and the Method of Curio;. In the case of perirjue tobacco the stripping of tlis midrib from the leaf causes the leaf to fall into two lateral hilves, which are placed on top of each other in such a manner that the blade of one half cf the 1 af alternate with the apex of the other. These are then twisted into what are called "torqnets." These tonpneu are folded upon them selves, side by side, and are placed ia strong boxes, which are about twelve inches 6qnare, and Etibjected to pressure. After t wenty-fonr hours these tonpiets are taken out ar;d repacked in the same manner as before every twenty-four honrs for a period of a week, the idea being evi lently to 6nr ject the torqnets to a uniform pressure throughout After this period has elapsed these torqnets are repacked every three d.iys for about two weeks. During all this CTme the tobacco is subjected to a constant, steady pres sure with a press of the most primitive kind. I should not forget to state that after the tobacco has been placed in the press one week a black juice flows oct of the box, which has a pleasant odor, not un like freshly cooked prunes. Square pieces of cottonade, IS by 19 inches, are Liid cut, and on these the torqnets are opened, or, to nse the term of the Eng lish speaking Arcadians, the torqnets are unraveled, great care being neces sary to separate each leaf. The largest leaves are laid upon the cottonade first, so that when rolled the largest leaves will serve as a covering of the carrotte presently to be described. The smaller leave are placed longitudi nally upon the larger ones until three and one-half to four pounds are placed ujon the piece of cottonade, the ends of which are turned inwardly. The cot tonade and contents are now rolled into carrottes, the ends of the cottonade are pulled out and a string tied to each end to prevent the carrotte from opening, and the whole wrapped in a clothesline, usu:illy made of cotton. The wrapping is Ttrfonned in the primitive n::.uuer that characterizes the oi-ration throughout Use is made of a windlass and a rope; the end of the rope is maih- fast to the carrotte, passed around a post driven into the ground), a twit t is now made around the carrotte, and with each turn of the carrotte the pr-smre is increased. This is continued until the whole of the carrotte is envel oped; the end is made fast by passing it through several turns of the rope. This finishes the carrotte, but, before it is placed upon the market, it is allowed to age, which is usually from six months to a year. During tlas time the tobacco is allowed to undergo a slow fermenta tion, which gives the aroma and taste that distinguish this tobacco from all others. The amount of periquo grown and manufactured has averaged, during the five years preceding INK), 19.000 car-rotu-s of four ponnds per annum. Wholesale tobacconists have expressed the doubt that any modern method would produce tobacco with as fine flavor as that produced by the old and primitive manner just described. Phar maceutical Era. How a Kins; Keeps Coot Although one may not keep cool, it is some satisfaction to read how others manage it There is the king of Siam, for instance. He is said to have in one of his country palaces a wonderful pa vilion. It was built by a Chinese engi neer as a refuge for the king during the extreme heat of summer. The walls ceiling and floors are formed of pieces of plate glass an inch thick. They are so perfectly fitted together with a trans parent cement that the joints are invis ible and no fluid can penetrate. The pavilion is twenty-eight feet long and seventeen wide, and 6tands in the mid dle of a huge basin made of beautifully colored marbles. When the king enters the pavilion the single door is closed and cemented. Then the sluice gate6 are opened and the basin is filled with water. Higher and higher it rises, until the pavilion is covered and only the ventilators at the top connect it with the open air. When the heat of the sun is so great that the water almot-t boils on the surface of the freshest foun tains this pavilion is deliciously cool. And this is the way the king cf Siam cools himself oft in hot weather. I sounds very delightful Exchange. Aa Antomatic Wrapper. One of the most ingenious and at the same time practically useful among the antomatic machines which have been in trodnced is a device which forms, fills, weighs and seals packages in those es tablishments where large quantities of goods, such as fine cut tobacco, soda. starch, etc., are constantly put np. The operation by which this result is accom plished, though decidedly novel, is not at all complex in any particuhir, the ma chine consisting merely of a series cf forming blocks, receptacles, folders. guimners and feeders, all working in mutual harmony, so that the packages are smoothly and continuously produced. The forming blocks successively size the paper, which instantly afterward is wrapped around them, folded and gummed at the end; the paper sacks are then plunged into receptacles filled with the commodity witn which they are in tended, finally folded on top and sealed. New lorkSun. It Felt So. An Irish servant girl came to her unstress one morning begging permission to go to the dentist to have an aching "toot" filled, saving that it had been going 'thmnp.ty - thump, thumpity- tnumpr all night When the girl returned, her mistress asked: "Well, Katie, did you have the tooth filled?" "Oi did, mum." "What did you have it filled with?" "Oi don't know just phwat it was, mum, bnt from the way it files Oi should fink it was t'under and loightning bed put into it, mum.' louthsCom panion. The following incident happened at Oroville, CuL : It was a handsome soil- taire, and she evidently desired the jew eler to know that it was her engagement ring. "I would like to have this ring cut down to suit my finger," said the hand some heart 6masher, as she flourished the brilliant ring before the eyes of the jeweler. The jeweler took the ring and smiled he had seen it before, "I can fix that in a minute," replied he. Screwing a magnifying glass in his eye, and taking a small sharp pointed instrument in his hand, he touched a minute button on the inside of the ring and made it the exact size, saying, as he placed it on her finger, "You see these rings are made in this manner for the reason that they are worn by so many different people; it is a great conven ience," The young lady sailed out of the store burning with indignation, and the rea son she did not fly was because she didn't have the wings. What did she think? You know, and it is only necessary to state that she did not wear the ring. Another girl has it cow, but this time the jeweler was not permitted to touch the button the young man did it him self. Jewelers' Circular. A Deaf Mute Cow.

One form of nervous headache which is unmistakable, though not always nn drstood as such, consists of a dull, grind ing pain in the back of the head near the base of the brain, where the nerves of the spinal cord enlarge and ramify for the formation of the brain. Pain in this locality, frequently extending down the neck, is a sure indication of impair ed nervous action, and should be treated accordingly. In another direction nerv ous trouble produces a violent headache that is from the medium of the stem ach. With many people any deep or sudden emotion, such as grief, fear, or even joy, may partially or entirely pars.1 stomach ; there is an utter absence of appetite, and the serious headache whioh results is simply the indication of the trouble.
