A pound or SO of coarsely- crushed
linseed should always be kept in the
house in an air-tight tin, also a tin Of
mustard and camomile-fowers and
poppy-heads for poultices and fomen-
tations. A bottle of disinfecting fluid
is an excellent adjunct to the medicine
chest. So is small wide-mouthed
bottle filled with the petals of the large
white lily, soaked in brandy. A little
of the brandy applied at once to a
bruise will prevent unsightly blackness,

Bright's Disease:

SIN your last issue F. L. S. asks il
any of your readers knows ola genuine
case OF Bright's disease that was cured:
About five years ago I was very sefi-
ously affected with this disease, and
was cured. There has been no evidence
of any kidney trouble for more than
four years. This has been established
by the most delicate tests, made by ex-
perts. Perhaps some one will doubt
my having had the genuine disease. In
reply | would say that my case was
watched throughout by two eminent
allopathic specialists and one homeo-
pathist, and it would be simply folly
to question their diagnosis.
"You also in the same issue of your
paper quote some remarks OF DR.. Will
lard Parker's. He might have added
malaria to the list of causes of
Bright's disease, as this unquestion-
ably is sometimes q cause. The
disease also sometimes appears
without any known cause. In
regard to the chances OF recovery,
l think the experience of good physi-
clans shows that half, or perhaps @
greater proportion, of acute cases are
durable, but less proportion of
chronic cases have this happy result.
Great benefit results from drinking
freely OF good, fresh buttermilk, out
door gentle exercise i possible, plenty of
courage, and good physician. This

because some of the symptoms given
in advertisements Of luaek medicines
are present. There is no Bright's dis
sease without albumen in the urine,
and this is SO easily detected that every
one should know how to perform the

Keen Out Weeds.

From Wick IS Magazine.-f one would
have a good garden it should be free
from foul seeds. | think nine out of
ten of the gardens among farmers are
allowed to mature crop of weeds the
latter part of the season, and usually
this is the result ofcarelessness. After
June, or when such early crops as peas,
lettuce, and radishes have matured,
no further use is made OF the land,
and as it has usually been MANFRED
in the spring, it grows lusty crop of
weeds, and fills the soil so full of seeds
as to quadruple the work OF cultlva-
ton of such plants as come up deli
cately, and which must be kept clean
by hand. The evil of ripening a crop
OF weed seeds is not short lived, for the
seeds will remain in the soil for many
years and terminate when the spring
opens.

The authorities of the Congo Free

Among the largest articles OF import

guns made for the African trade.
Traders are still permitted to sell the
natives as many of these arms as they

Madstones, as they are called, are
believed by some persons to be entire
ly without healing or curative virtues,
but Chicago angives the assurance
that one of these singular articles has
been used for more than forty years
in hundreds of cases in Cook county,
Illinois, and that only in one case was
there fatal result, that of a child
who was "taken away before the stone
had fully extracted the poison" He
remarks that these stones should have
a fair investigation before being con-
demned, inasmuch as the medical pro-
fession is confessedly without remedy
forhydrophobia. The stone is porous,
and when applied to the wound, if it
is rabies, adheres to it until the pores
are filled with poison, when it drops
off; it is then put in warm milk and a
green poison exudes from it until it is
cleansed; The application is repeated
until as long as it will adhere to the
wound, or until the poison is all OK
tracted.

A well-fed and well-bedded horse
would produce about 20 pounds OF
manure in day, If all the liquid is
saved by a properly madedrain, and
the manure is kept i'll well-arranged

This would be equal to about 1000
pounds monthly and tons in a year.
Six tons would be equal to about two

as follows: 300 pounds of corn, 100
pounds of oats, and 800 pounds OF

given in two feeds. A COW that will
not pay for this feed in extra product

is not good or profitable COW.

The Mineral argus. [volume] (Maiden, Mont.) 1883-1886, 1885-03-26

In an opinion rendered last week by
Assistant Attorney General Mccain
mon, on the Winnebago reservation
order Of President Arthur, opening the
lands to settlement, he decides that it
was proper and in accordance with the
law, on the ground that, as the lands
were set apart by executive order, and
not by treaty, they can be restored to
the public domain by the same au-
thority. II the president has authority
to set aside a tract of land for an
Indian reservation by executive order
and then restore part or the whole
to the public domain, he certainly can
do the same with a military reseva-
ton. This is a point of considerable
interest to our citizens, and since the
cobwebs of doubt, or ignorance have
been removed from our eyes and those
high in authority, perhaps it might be
well for us to appeal direct to Presi-
dent Cleveland for REIMBURSEMENT of
the mineral belt from the Maginnis
military reservation.
