The entire board now are : W E Snowden, Ben son; J E Brunson, Lake City and D J Epps, Kingstree. Kingstree continues to grow. The salary of our efficient postmaster, Mr Louis Jacobs, has been raised from ?1,300 to ?1,400, based on the increased business of the office. We wish Postmaster Jacobs could get a salary of ?3,000 to make him comfortable in his old age. \ Kingstree will probably have a Chinese laundary in the near future. A Chinaman named!

A few months ago so-called 'loadstone" was sent to the bureau "v,l industry with a request p owner that it lie tested i ideally as a cure for rabies. He ned in his letter accompanying he madstone that it had been used uccessfully in several cases of in:ipieut hydrophobia, but he desired hat it should be tried under the lirection of competent scientists. The request induced, thedepartnemt officials of the pathological livisou to institute an inquiry into uadstones in general and the one eceived by the department in paiicular. That investigation has been oncluded and the report ot it outains importaut facts. It shows hat the madstoues are obtained from he stomachs of certain wild and lomestic auimals. Many of them are ormed from matted hair which the .nimal has licked from its body and wallowed; while others are composed f vegetable fit'e have been formed ino a ball in the stomach. For generations those ' 'atones" lave been used to prevent hydrophobia. They are simply applied to the rounds cau.sed by the bite of a dog r of a cat, ths suppjsitioa being hat if they adhere to the wounds a ure is certain. Cases are known ot lersons who have made extended ournevs and paid considerable sums f money merely for the apphation of the madstone. In its report the pathological di isiou warns the public that the mud tone is no possible avail as a preentire of rabies or anything else. L'he report says that as a specific for abies the madstone "is of no greater alue than that of a piece of blotting >aper applied in the same manner." Mirther along the report says: The ipplicatiou of madstones gives the inenlightened public a false sense ?f securiiv, and their use should be liscouraged by all possible means." It was in connection with the inpury that the discovery was made hat hydrophobia was increasing ilarmingly. The disease is not conined to any particular section of the Jnited States but is general 1 prevaint throughout the country. The eporton the subject strongly recorinends that all dogs be muzzled, aid the declaration is made that the Iisease cannot be stamped out until j logs are muzzled for a period of , everal years. The experience of ome European countries is cited to how that only by the muzzling of logs can the disease be absolutely radicated. It is pointed out that a notion is; >revalent to the effect thai when a! log, in good health, bites a human J >eing, the dog must be killed lest he I ubsequently should go mad and litis induce hydrophobia in the per- ! on it has bitten.
