CURE FOR CoLIo IN ANINALs.-A corres-

gives the following cure for collie in horses,
which is convenient at all times and easily
applied. IIesays he has never known it
to fails Spread teacupful, or more, of fine
salt on the back of the animal over the kid
neys and loins. and keep it saturated with
warm water for twenty or thirty minutes, OF
longer if necessary. If the attack is severe
drench with salt water. have valuable
bull, weighing nineteen or twenty hundred
which had severe attack of collie veal
ago last summer. Iapplied salt to his back
as above, and It being difficult to drench, We
put wooden bit into his mouth, keeping il
open about two inches, and spread salt upor
his tongue, which together with the sal
upon his back, relieved him at once, anC
within very short time equilibrium ap
peared fully restored. l have for severa
years past successfully applied this treatmen

AWOMAN,s URRING FEAT

The San Diego (Cal) Herald of June 20
tells Of the following feat performed there
by young lady named Miss Lawrence;
"Last Tuesday band of wild cattle were
being driven through the streets, when one
of them singled out a child at play and
started for it. The vaquero, who was drunk,
tumbled from his horse as he attempted to
turn the furious animal. At this moment
Miss Lawrence came along, and, taking in
the situation at glance, sprang into the
vacant saddle, ran down the wild steer,
threw her shawl over its head just as it was
about to gore the child, and, taking advan-
tage of the confusion of the beast, rode up
to the child, and without leaving her saddle,
reached TO it and lifted it into her lap, and
then carried it off in safety. This was not
only genuine act of heroism, but an ex-
bibition of horsemanship such as few per-
sons if any in this region could equal"

HIS FIND.

He was saving man, with an eye on the
main chance and the sidewalk. He was
walking down the street with several friends.
He saw bit Of green paper in the slush.
None Of his companions noticed it. He ex-
cused himself and stepped aside. The walk
was crowded with pedestrians. He kept
his eye on the bit of green paper, which
ever and anon was stepped upon and ground
still further into the mud by the feet of the
careless crowd. Visions Of ten dollar green
backs hoated before him. 1t might be ten ,
it might be fly. it might be a hundred
dollar bill A momentary opening in the
crowd enabled him to swoop down upon the
treasure that was his by right of discovery,
He gobbled itup. If it proved to be a small
bill he would keep it; if a large one, he
would advertise it in the papers and get a
reward. With hand tightly clasped he hur-
ried to an adjacent stairway to size his pile
AS he unfolded his prize with trembling
fingers, he found it TO be a Cancelled revenue

died. The sparks flew wide and red and

II PEsTERED BY an Eruption, use GLENN's
SULPHUR SOAR, the ruling specific for di
seases, irritation and abrasions of the skin,
and a most salutary beautifer of the COM
plexion. This admirable article is an in
expensive substitute for sulphur baths, and
is equally as effective in banishing cutane-
Gus maladies, and relieving the pangs Of
rheumatism and gout. Redness and rough
ness, tan, freckles, pimples, and indeed every
imperfectOn Of the cuticle is entirely remov-
ed by it. II is aYouched, by ladies VINO have
used il, to be the most effective means of
clarifying and soitening the skin that they
have ever employed; its health promoting
properties are widely recognized by medical
men, and evidence in its behalf, emanating
from other and equally respectable sources,
precludes any reasonable doubt as TO the
genuineness of its claims to public. conf
dence. Clothing and linen from the sick
room are disinfected by it, and it prevents
eontagion when the danger Of obnoxious di,
seases has been incurred by contact. Sore:
and ulcers, that resist the operation OF salvel
and lotions, are healed by it, and it soon re-
lieves the swelling and pain caused by bruis
es and sprains Tho opening of the pores
resulting from the wholesome stimulation
Of the superficial blood vessels that it pro
duces, is the effect calculated TO ease the cir
culation when overheated, and carry OF
those offensive granulations which ds6gur
the cutiele and render existence a state o
martyrdom while they remain. Eruptions
ailments that ointments will not cure, ar
entirely eradicated by GLENS's SULPHUR
Soar.
