1923 Dog Fatality List Is
Expected to Be Hundreds
of Ihousands.
BOSTON, Auk. 82. Hundreds of
thousand:) of don;s will -die in tho
L'nitid Slates during l!i:'3 anil a ina
jority of those casual tltH will result
from that mysterious can I no muludy
culled" distemper," That estimate
bused on retires of oilier years, was
made hero today ly Charles H Tyler,
of lioRton, Hecrelary-treusui pr " of the
American ldstemner Commit tec.
Mr, Tyler is tlij active director of
that body which will launch u nation
wide drive to stamp out thu deadly,
enemy of "mun'a bunt friend.", Tht!
committee, of which Hobart Amen of!
11 os l on is tho chairman and William j
Zii'tfk'r. Jr. of New York the vtce-J
chalrm in, included u representative
croup of American authorities on dug
affairs, as .well as men prominent in
business and professional lines.
The committee, Air. Tyler said, has
completed plans to reach, ehloftly
through the medium of dog- clubs and
dog publications, thousands of fan
ciers and dog owners. It is estimated
that upwards of a million persons in
this country will Jo(n in contributing
to the success of thu drive which will
result In exhaustive research, the aim
1 of which will be to isolato the germ
and discover an effective curative and
preventive. Details have been per
fected which will extend the move
ment into every city und town in the
United Htutcu. .
Similar drives, according to Mr. Ty
ler, have been launched In kiiffland,
Canada, Australia, South Africa and
other countries. The Kngllsh com
mittee is headed by the Duke of
Beaufort, one of tho best known of
Kngllsh dog men and is being actively
directed-by Kir Theodore Cook, editor
of the London Field. Twenty-five
Kngllsh sportsmen, including several
noted scientists, compose the .com
mittee in that country. Organizations
along the same lines in the other
countries provide assuranco that the
war ugainst distemper will be waked
on every front,
Tho insidious malady, peculiar to
dogs, Is only too familiar to the thous
ands of dog owners who have seen
their four-footed companions stricken,
r suddenly droop, drag themselves to a
corner of the room or kennel, gradu
ally lose tho use of the legs and fin
ally enter a slate of paralysis after
which the only humane solution Is the
infliction of death as painless as poss
ibe rather than to permit drawn out
suffering.
The germ which causes the disease,
however, lias baffled scientists to
dute. Jt attacks dogs of every class,
from tiic blue-ribbohed winners of
the show ring to the homeless street
waif. Well-bred dogs are, if anything
more susceptible. Cases have been
noted in which the disease spread
rapidly among the finest prize win
ners gathered at big kennel shows.
The result has been tho loss of thous
ands of dollars worth of animals and,
more than that, of real companions.
The germ may be conveyed by
other nutans than by actual contact
with the animal suffering from the
disease. Jt may be carried on the
clothes or boot3 of a person who has"
been even slightly in contact with a
dog carrying the disease. .
The experimental work which
there Is good reason to believe will be
successful in liberating the dog from
this dreader enemy, will be carried
on at the Farm laboratory of the
Medical JUescarch Council near Lon
don, Kngland, Specially trained at
tendants will spend parctlcally all
their time within a restricted en
closure in which the kennels of tho
"patients" will bo. located.
Numerous experiments will be 'car
ried out, checked and verified, with
each result a stepping stone to thu
ultimate goal which is likely to be the.
isolation ol the germ anil the formu
lation of a preventive and curative
preparation.
Reports of the progress made in tho
experiments wilt be announced from
time to time for the information of
dog men. When tlte solution finally
is reached, it will be given freely to
owners of dogs in every country.
Dairy Breeders Lauded.

of titse Syracuse Ministers' Associa

This woman while digging in the

her neighbors about her find, and
of con rso the news got to Cairo.
The professors from the University

Professor Hincke Is forced to tho

Hincke finds that the results of the

TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE'TEA
If Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens
8o Naturally Nobody
Can Toll
The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur . for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grandmoth
er's recipe, and folks arc again using it
to keep their hair a good, even color,
which is quite sensible, as we arc liv
ing in an age when a youthful appear
ancc is of the greatest advantage.
' Nowadays, though, wc don't have the
troublesome task of gathering the sage
and the mussy mixing at home. All
drug stores sell the rcady-to-use prod
uct, improved hy the addition of other
ingredients, called "Wycth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound." It is very popu
lar because nobody can discover it has
been applied. Simply moisten your
comb or a soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, but what delights the
ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound, is that, besides beautifully
darkening the hair after a few applica
tions, it also produces that soft lustre
and appearance of abundance which is
to attractive.
