Cure by Applying The "Mad
StOne1
[From the Utica, Ind, Ledger

ltrcm the Cucd, 1nd.t Ledger
Mr.. Burnett was bitten by a supposed
mad dog. Burnett was bitten on Sun
day, and on Tuesday he started for Terra
Haute.
On his arrival the arm and hand were
swelled almost to bursting, and the arm
was very painful, all four of the dogs
tusks having penetrated to the bone. He
repaired TO the residence of Mrs. Taylor,
where the mad stone was applied. The
stone remained twenty-fonr bouls. 1t
was then applied to another part of the
arm, where 1t adhered several hours, A
third time it was applied to another part
of the arm. but would not adhere, and
Mr.sTaylor told him he was cured, thefact
that the stone would not adhere be-
ing evidence that the poison was extract
ed. During the operation a green fluid
was absorbed by the stone, and trickled
% drops from the wound and the patti,
emit could feel the pain leaving his arm.
When the stone became charged with
the poisonous matter, it was soaked in
warm water Tor a time, when it would
again adhere with its original tenacity, and
co ntinued to do so until the greenish
matter ceased to appear, when it dropped
off.
We have often heared of this mad
stone, and being i%ncredulous, took the
pains TO make some inquiries concerning
it. The stone has been in the possession
of the Taylor family for many years, and
has been tried a great many times on
persons bitten by mad animals. 1t has
never failed to cure in a single instance,
we are told. Twenty years ago Lewis
Toms, of this city, and who Is now living
to attest the statement, was bitten by a
mad dog, and was cured by the applica-
ton of this wonderful stone. We did
not learn where this wonderful curative
was originally obtained. 1t is porous,
and in appearance much resembles s
piece of lava in use among painters.

POPPING CORN.

And there they sat, a popping corn,
John Styles and Susan Cutter,
John Styles as fat as any OK,
And Susan fat as butter.
And there they sat and sheileI the corn,
And lsked and stirred the fire.
And talked Of different kinds of ears.
And hltched their chairs the higher.
Then Susan she the pepper shook,
Then John he shook the pepper,
TIL both their faces grew as red
As saucepans made Of copper.
and then they shelled and popped and
ate,
All kind of Jun a poking-
While he haw-haw'd at her remarks,
And she laughed at his joking.
And still they popped and stilithey ate
Johns mouth was like a hopper
And stirred the fire. and sprinkled salt,
and shook and shook the pepper.
The clock struck nine, the clock struck
ten,
And still the corn kept popping
Il struck eleven, and then struck twelve,
And still no signs of stopping!
And John he ate. and Sue she thought,
The corn did pop and patter.
Till John cried out, the corn's q ire!'
why Susan, what's the matter2"
Said che, John Styles, its one O'Clock,
You'll die of indigestion;
PA sick of all this popping corn
Why don't you pop the question:"
