A GOOD SAMARTTAN.-The famous DR..
Dupree, of New York, was in town Mon
day, to arrange about notices of his COM
ing here to relieve all the ills that feet are
heir to. We CHANGED when he called on
us to be crippled with an exceedingly pain
full and infamed enlarged toe joint, render
ing locomotion difficult, and we had a va
riety of corns GO on foot" sufficient almost
to have gotten up a &c corner in the artl-
Gle almost as huge as the late Chicago
corner in corn. We tested the Doctors
skill, and were lively enough Tuesday to
start for the Middlebury Convention. DR..
Dupree is evidently no humbug, but makes
a speciality of diseases of the feet. Hence
his success. His methods of treatment have
no magic about them, but are conducted
on scientific and rational principles, such
as any one might adopt if they had DR..
Dupree's experience, skill and remedies.
If we keep" getting on better y we shall
allude to the matter again.
