The Scarlet FeTer-A Very Simple
Remedy Suggested.

Robert Christie, of the Potrero, sug-
gests q remedy for the scarlet fever,
which he AYERS has invariably proved
successful. 1t is very simple, and
lies within the reach of those whose
limited means preclude them from
employing the services of a physician.
4 1t is this: Take an onion and cut it
in halves; cut out q portion of the
center, and into the cavity put q
spoonful of saffron; put the pieces
together, then wrap them up in a
cloth and bake them in an oven un-
til the onion'is cooked SO that the
juice will run freely ; squeeze out all
the Juice, and give the patient tea
spoonful, at the same time rubbing
the chest and throat with goose grease
or rancid bacon il there is any cough
or soreness in the throat. In short
time the fever will break out in an
eruption all over the hody. All that
is then necessary is to keep the pa
tient warm and protected from draft,
and the recovery is certain. Mr..
Christie says be has been employing
this remedy for many years, and new
er knew it to fail when proper care
was taken of the patient after its ap-
pIication. One family, in which
there were five children down with
the disease at one time recently, used
this simple remedy uDon bis telling
them of it, and every one o! the little
ones recovered in short time.

AlIAbOut a DOnkeJ.

We nave had another funny in
stance in one of our Westminster
courts. The parties we're two cOster-
mongers, and the dispute was about a
donkey. The case occupied the court
all the morning, and, on adjOurning
for luncheon, the Judge remarked that
il was trivial matter, and he hoped
to hear on re-assem bling that the par
ties had settled it out of court. After
luncheon, therefore, the defendant
got up and said it was all right, and
the donkey was his, explaining that
they had found quiet yard t0 settle
it in, according to his lOrdship's sug-
gestion, but that il had been tough
work. as they had only half an hour.
His lordship was Mortified, on looking
at the other party, to find that his
eyes were much swollen and dis
eolored, and that he was good deal
smeared with blood, aud to find that
while they had acted in perfect good
faith on what they supposed 10 be his
suggestion, he bad himself, in his
own court, been really inciting to a
serious breach of the peace. The
court burst into roars of laughter,
which it was impossible to restrain
and it was equally impossible, under
the circumstances, to punish the hon.
