The Earth Cure.

Years ago we were told by an Indi-
an, one of the Senecas, in Western
New York, that one way to treat a
patient for fever and ague was to dig
a hole in the ground, say two feet
deep or more, and then, when the
ague had subsidized and the fever was
returning, to bury the patient, wrap
ped in a blanket, in the soft, dry
earth, leaving only a breathing-hole
through a tube placed near his nose
and mouth, to prevent suffOeation.
Placed with his face down, he is
permitted to remain half an hour or
more, till the earth fairly smokes
with his perspiration. 1t was said
that two or three such burials would
break up the worst cases.
We simply relate this Indian meth
cd, without indorsing it, having had
no personal experience of its efficacy.
Others can judge as well as we
whether the earth serves as a poultice
to draw out the poison from the
blood; or whetheritis sweating which
does the work.
