SWEET OIL FOR POISON.

1t is now over thenty years since l
heard that sweet oil would cure the
bite of a rattlesnake, not knowing that
il would cure other kinds of poison.
Practice and experience have taught
me that il will cure poison of any kind,
both on man and beast. The patient
must take spoonful Of it internally
and battle the wound, for Il cure. TO
cure horse it takes eight times as
much as for man. One Of the most
extreme cases of snake bites occurred
eleven years ago. 1t had been thirty
days standing, and the patient had
been given up by his physicians. |
gave him n spoonful OF tie oil, which
effected cure. Ii will cure blOat. in
cattle caused by fresh clover. 1t will
cure The stings of bees, spiders or 9th
err insects, and persons who have been
poisoned by low running vine cali

The woman who arrived at the

start of ten feet didn't comprehend the
situation for moment. She didn't
know but that boats had a habit OF
starting off and backing up to keep
the machinery from getting rusty.
When she realized that she was being
left, she jabbed man in the back with
her elbow, knocked hat off with her
parasol, and squealed at the top of her
voice:

HOW TO GET RID OF FLIES.

The Rev. George Meares Drought,
writing from Ireland, says: "For
three years l have liyed in town, and
during that time my sitting room has
been free from flies, three or four only
walking about the breakfast table,
while all my neighbors were crowd
ed. 1 often congratulated myself on
my escape, but knew not the reason of
it until two days ago. / then had oc-
casion to move my goods to another
house, while remained on for two
days longer. Among other things
moved were boxes of Gcraniums and
calceolarios, which stood in the win
dow, which was always open. The
boxes were not gone half an hour be-
fore my room was as full as those
around me. This, to me, is q new dis
