ation, doubtless, is caused by the severity 
of the attack, but it can hardly be denied 
that the temperament of the individual 
dog has a good deal to do with the out¬ 
come of the case. 
The after-effects of distemper may be 
almost as bad as the disease itself. There 
is no space here to go into them in detail, 
but mention may be made of chorea, as 
that often follows severe attacks. This is 
a nervous disease which causes the dog 
to twitch and jerk spasmodically. There 
seems to be no sure cure for it, though 
sometimes it is outgrown.

Hermit, 70, Lies Week in 
Woods With Broken Leg 
Dog His Guard 
Collie Saves Old Man from Drowning and 
Drags him Two Miles toward Hut — Rescuers 
Have to Fight Off Animal with Clubs. 
Blairstown, N. J., Aug. 8. — Lying in the open six 
days, with a broken leg, with only a few blackberries to 
eat and rainwater to drink, Lemuel Hill, seventy years 
old, who lives alone in a hut back of Walnut Valley, near 
the Blue Mountains, was found yesterday. 
Hill went out blackberrying last Monday morning, 
and in attempting to jump over a creek slipped and fell, 
breaking his right leg. He lay there all day. In the 
evening a heavy storm broke, and the stream beside 
which the old man had fallen became swollen. Don, a 
large collie, dragged him to high ground. 
Since then the man, with the aid of the dog, had dragged 
himself almost two miles from the spot where the accident 
occurred. 
Yesterday two scouting parties set out. and early today 
he was found in a pitiful condition. When he regained 
consciousness he declared he had given up all hope. His 
rescuers had to use clubs to drive away the dog, so con¬ 
scientiously did he guard his master.
