A smoke from the leaves of bella
donna possesses much more power in
cutting short an attack of asthma than
that from stramonium. A long pipe is
the best means Of smoking them, the
patient being instructed to draw the
smoke deep into the chest. II when
the attack Is at its height he has not the
power of doing this, the leaves may be
placed in saucer containing lighted
charcoal or wood-ashcs, which should
be placed on chair in front of the pa
tient, this chair, as well as his own, be-
ing covered with large sheet, so as to
confine the fumes, before leaves are put
on the hot charcoal. From two and .
half TO five grains Of the leaves are suf-
ficient when smoked, and from to 20
grains when burned. II the smoke is
drawn deeply into the chest, the relief
Is immediate, expectoration Of phlegm
taking place. Il is in the spasmodic
form Of asthma, where there is little or
no expectoration, that the greatest re-
lief Is obtained; for, when the tubes
are loaded with mucus, the smoke can
not get access to their muscular tissue.
The relief Is most marked when the
remedy Is used soon after the paroxysm
has commenced, before the spasm pre-
vents access of air to the smaller tubes
and air-cells. Tobacco-smoker do
not receive the same amount Of relief
as others. Temporary headache Of a
throbbing character may be produced
II the leaves are used too freely Mel

Miss Malissa Wilson, young lady IS
years Of age, shot and killed = panther,
a mile and quarter from her fathers
house, which is six miles above Sheri-
DAM on Saturday, December %. The
panther had been killing her fathers
sheep, and his dogs got after the ami
NAL and freed it, and the young lady
killed it at the second shot. She pre-
sents 1t as . Christmas present to the
stock-raisers Of Yamhill County. The
panther weighed 100 pounds. Miss
Wilson Is certainly true type Of cour-
ageous frontier womanhood, and her
spirit Of daring and adventure ought to
forever put the blush OF shame to the
cheeks Of her fashionable sisters, who
are ready to swoon when harmless
mouse crosses their path. Portland
