ter being bitten, take one ounce of the
root of the plaut-the green root is per-
haps preferable, but the dried will an

stores, and was used by me-slice or
bruise, put in pint Of fresh milk, boil
down to half pint, strain, and when
cold drink it, fasting at least SIX hours
aflerward. The next morning repeat
the dose prepared as the last, and this
will be sufficient. 1t is recommended
that after each dose nothing be eaten for
at least six hours.

dog eighteen years ago, and four other

When the democrats have no offices
they are very much against a partisan
distribution of them, very much in favor
of civil service reform which will take
patronage out OF the hands of parties.
But as soon as the control Of official pat
ronage comes into their hands they change
their tune decidedly just now, in New
Hampshire where the state government
has fallen into their hands they are busy
turning out the republican office holders
and filling their places with democrats.
All The republicans have to walk the plank.
Even the courts are not safe from their
clutches, for they are endeavoring to re-
construct them SO as to fill the bench with
democratic judges. They are already
quarreling over the governor for next
next year, and the place of senator that
opens up in 1876, as well as for minor
offices. 1t is wonderful how the posses
sion Of offices changes their notions about
the way in which they should be distribut-

have effectually closed against themselves
the possibility Of any sympathy and CO.
operation with them on the part OF the
