REMEDY FOR HYDROPHOBIA.- Hydrophobia
can be prevented, and this is what is known of
an infallible remedy for man or beast. A dose
for horse or a COW should be four times as much
as for person. 1t is not too late to give any
time before the spasm comes on. The first dose
for person is one and a-half ounces of elecam-
pane root bruised and put in a pint of new milk;
reduce to one-half by boiling; then take all at
one dose in the morning-fasting until night
Second dose same the fist, only use two ounc-
es of the root. Third dose same as the second.
To be taken every day. Three doses is all that
is required. There need be no fear as to results.
This remedy has been used in and around Phila-
delphia for forty years, with great success.
