Undig ested Food

In the stomach develops an acid which
stihgs the upper part of the throat and
palate, causing heartburn" 1t also
evolves gas which produces "wind on
the stomach" and a feeling and ap-
pearance of distention in that organ
after eating. For both this acidity
and swelling Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers is a much better remedy than al
kaline salts, like hartsborn and Carlo
nate Of soda. A wineglassful of the
Bitters, after or before dinner, will be
found to act as a reliable carminative
Or preventive. This fine specific for
dyspepsia, both in its acute and cbron-
ic form, also prevents and cures mala-
rial fever, constipation, liver COM
plant, kidney troubles, nervousness
and debility. Persons who observe in
themselves a decline of igor should
use this fine tonic without any delay.

MAD DOG.
LEcoMTE, La, !
June 9, 1886. {
Editor Democrat:

june ., 1886. !
Editor Democrat:
Our town was thrown into perfect
panic few evenings since. The cry
OF mad dog was sounded from every
portion OF town, at which time large
yellow dog came tearing down Hardy
street, turning somersaults at eyerv
jump and yelling as if Old Nick was
after him. He turned up Weems ave-
me, where he met about twenty color
ed people of all ages and sex {; they
struck for Weelns' plantation, and the
gate being locked they made rush
for the fence and literally crushed
down eight panels and rushed through
the plantation screaming mad dog at
the top OF their voices. The dog pass
ed on to Scott & Murdock's store,
where he was attacked by half doz-
en- other dogs; after biting four or five
OF them he took refuge under tue store,
where he was soon dispatched by a
we'll aimed shot. Oh, horror of bor-
rors the dog was not mad at all. We
have a new doctor in our town, one B.
Pressburg, who says he is hi on fits,
and if he can throw an animal into fits
he can cure it. One of D. Brewers fine
dogs was little sick and the aforesaid
doctor gave him an external applica-
ton of tnrpentine, which produced the
result as above. The distinguished
N. d. was still not satisfied; he caught
Col. Hathaway's old pet dog who was
looking a little puny, and gave him a
like application, whereupon the old
fellow mot the doctor but the dog)
made for the bayon and plunged in,
yelling all the time; he swan down
a quarter of o mile and came out near
Walter Clark's place. X. NJ. Clark
was out at work and when he saw the
dog he threw down bis hoe and ran
into the house, closing the door after
him, seized his gun and fired both bar
rels off up the chimney and fell back
on the floor in a swoon, and when your
reporter arrived upon the scene Mr..
Clark was lying stretched on the floor
and Madam Tuck was bathing him
with camphor and occasionally giving
MIN broken doses of assafoetida, and
when the poor fellow revived the first
question he asked was "did the mad
dog bite anybody besides me 7" l
fear the fun is not over yet, as Mr..
Brewer threatens to prosecute the doc
tor for malpractice, and the old Colo
mel did threaten to give the doctor an
application of his own medicine, but
as the ColonePs old dog and Mr.
Clark have both recovered I think it
will all pass off quietly.
Yours respectfully,
SoU1Nr.
