i -5 ATTITDVH it NOTES BY C.M.RAENITZ Mvekside PA. o tCORElSPOKDENCE SOLICITED . DISEASED POULTRY SOLD IN OPEN MARKET. While visiting a relative In a distant City the family physician made this tmusual request: "I understand you are an expert on hen health, and I am come to ask you a favor. I have sev eral very particular patients, and their nurses have found It difficult to se cure good squabs and chickens. I have therefore volunteered to purchase them, and I am anxious to have you accompany me to market" "Well, what do you think of the poultry on display?" asked our friend. "Fair," we answered, "but it would have been better If some had not died before they were killed." Our enigmatical reply puzzled the physician for a moment, and then he demanded, "Do you mean to assert that some of this poultry died of dis ase and was then dressed?" "That Is the exact meaning," we re plted. We hurriedly returned to the booth Where the diseased specimens had been detected, and there they hung, limy and blue, on the hooks, 'while customers crowded around the stall. The physician quickly turned to the dealer and, pointing to two fowls In question, asked, "Are those fresh killed Chickens?" "Sure," said the marketman; "just fresh this morning." The doctor purchased thorn, took the booth number, and we went on. The fowls had both died of diphtheria. When we pointed to their swollen faces and the putrid white patches iu their throats and explained to the sur prised physi cian that this Is. a common, contagious and deadly , disease among grown fowls and that this species of diphtheria Is supposed by many to be flnfl lto nf A. DIPHTHERITIC THROAT. . , transmission to human beings, he was certainly as tonished. We remained long enough In that City to see the unscrupulous dealer heavily fined and to receive a request from the bqard of health to give such Information to the public that they might be safeguarded In buying poul try and that they might be able to discern the symptoms of disease in dressing fowls at home. POULTRY HAVE CONTAGIOUS AND OTHER DI SE ASES. Many per sons forget that fowls have organs similar to a human being's, perform ing many like functions, susceptible to the same Influences within and with out, affected by hereditary weaknesses and afflicted by diseases, contagious, chronic or temporary. Many will be surprised to hear that poultry are subject to pneumonia, lar yngitis, bronchitis, catarrh, consump tion, diphtheria, catarrh of the stomach (crop), chol era, diarrhea, enteritis, peritonitis, constipation, congestion of the liver, congestion of the brain. Vertigo, epilepsy, apoplexy, heart failure, fatty degen eration of the heart, paral ysis, rheumatism, rickets, gout, jaundice, blood poi son, leprosy, dropsy, chick en pox, gapeworms, tape- ulcerated worms, roundworms, suck- Jntestike. lag worms, corns and others too nu merous to mention. Turkeys are the only fowls we have seen with appendi citis. The operation was a failure. The symptoms of these diseases are all classified and remedies prescribed, and great poultry remedy houses are ' now manufacturing Immense quanti ties of chicken medicine both In home opathic and allopathic form. In 1898 the state of Pennsyl vania issued a mag nificent volume of 750 pages on "The Dis eases and Enemies of Poultry," and 15,000 volumes were distrib uted through the state. This handsome book was considered a sim ple piece of political graft and is derisively referred to as "BIrdy Warren's Bird Book." We wish to say that it is the most compre-1 henslve, clear and help ful treatise yet print- TAPEWOBK. ed on the subject, and the owner of a copy may be congratulated. The state has further provided that where the disease of the fowl cannot , bat ascertained the dead body, with a Hat at symptoms, may be expressed " t fit . TT 111 S --1 I a the veterinary ' department of the ; University of Pennsylvania, . Philadel phia, for a correct diagnosis. Do not be surprised to see the different states establish hospitals for sck and wound ed poultry in the near f Store. .Diphtheria, consumption and cholera are considered the special germ dis eases among fowls. The first two enu merated and chicken pox show many of the symptoms displayed by human beings and are supposed to attack those who come in contact with the affected fowls. The feverish, putrid breath, white patches in the throat and extreme weakness of fowl diph theria are similar. to the dread disease that attacks human beings. I In fowl tuberculosis there Is no cough nor hemorrhages. Little cheesy lumps or swellings called tubercle ap- pear about the joints and in the liver, , spleen and lungs. The head and comb become pale, and the bird wastes away to a hand ful of feath ers, skin and bone. Par rots brought to the Uni versity of and di a g n o s e d have'shown the Identi cal symp toms of the great white plague that FAVTJS. destroys so many human beings every year.

Among the least known people of ' the world today are the hairy Ainus of the island of Yezo. A traveler i save of them: :The men ffrow ereat fer T " of Mocks 1. 2, and t, onr - o o ' : t 1 ru :n -v 11:- ; beards, of which they are excessively i proud, and their bodies are thickly covered with hair, almost like mem bers of the monkey .tribe. The wo men grow no hair on their faces, but seem to find a solace for this imaginary defect in tattooing mus taches on their lips and often prim itive designs on their hands and arms and also across their fore heads. Young unmarried women have very little tattooing on them, but once a woman is married her husband seems to take a pride in decorating his bride with repre sentations of hirsute adornment. The modus operandi is one which requires considerable fortitude on the part of the patient, since the crudest form of tattooing is adopt ed. This consists of making a num ber of incisions in the. skin with the point of a knife. A characteristic of the Ainu race is the color of their skin, which is of a deep bronze or eopper color, and in nowise resem bles any other of the oriental races, but is more like that of the Ameri can Indians. , "The Ainus have no records, writ ten or otherwise, of their former history nor of how and whence they came to inhabit the island of Yezo. Leerends, however, exist among cer- tain of the Ainus to the effect that many years ago Yezo was inhabited by a race of diminutive people wjjo were conquered and apparently ex terminated by the Ainus. These Beoole were called by the Ainus TTrTTi-rinV-knrn or nit dwellers. OW- L " . . r . , a in Wa constructed over a form of rectan gular, circular or oval shaped pit, many traces of which are still found in Y"ezo and the Kurile islands. A few years ago the present writer also discovered on the Bering sea coast of Alaska some perfect re mains of a pit dwellers' village, which is" quite unlike, any settle-; ments made today by the Eskimo or Aleut natives of Alaska. "The Ainus claim that at some remote period they were themselves the inhabitants of some far north ern country, and as evidence of this they cite their hairy bodies. They say, 'Why, if we did not come from a cold country, should we need to have skins like a bear V It is pos sible that they did migrate south ward from the shores of the Bering Kamchatka and the Kuriles. "Like certain other northern races, the Ainus have no religion. They have no knowledge of a su- preme being ana no Deiiei m a iu ture state. Mr. Landor, who ques tioned many natives on various sub jects, was once scornfully told by one of them that 'the Ainus are taught nothing and they know noth ing.' This exactly describes the state in which they live." Chicago News. ' The Old Masters. Prices which run to five figures are frequently given for paintings by what are called "the old mas ters." But "what of the original cost? A collector who has been making inquiries quotes the follow ing startling figures : ' Michael Angelo, he found, was Daid only about $40 a month while he was at work on his cartoons of the battle of Pisa. Leonardo, who acted as his assistant, received the same wage. Correggio received less than $10 for his "Christ In the Garden," while Carracci's "Resurrection" brought its painter still less. Albert Durer was seldom paid in cash for his pen and ink portraits. A bag of flour, a pair of boots or seme such equivalent satisfied him. Rembrandt, "the mightiest gen ius," received as his highest price under $500 for his "Night Watch." Valesquez worked chiefly for the Spanish government. He was paid on an average $35 a picture. Street Cars In Mexico. "Street car conductors in the City of Mexico," said a tourist, "give a receipt to each passenger on tak ing a fare. The pads are number ed and show as quickly as a cash register how many fares each man must return to the company, provid ed that the passengers accept the re ceipts. The Mexicans never forget to demand a voucher, for each is a numbered ticket in a monthly lot tery with many rich prizes, and the gambling zeal of the passengers acts as a check on every fare taken in." New York Sun. Surprising. "Yesterday was my birthday. "I suppose your husband ga?eyou a little auiprise?" "Oh, yes. He came home before midnight."
