Cure for the Bite of a Mad-Dog.

A certain Mr.. Valentine Referring
of Dauphin county has communicated
to the senate of Pennsylvania a sure
remedy for the bite of any kind of
mad animal. He says that his an
cestors had already used it in Germany
250 years ago, and that he had always
found it to answer the purpose during
a residence of fifty years in the United
States. He only published it from
motives of humanity. This remedy
consists in the weed called chickweed.
1t is summer plant, known to the
Germans and Swiss by the name of
Gauchnell, Rother Meyer, or Rother
Huehnerdarm. In England it is called
Red Pimpernel, and its botanical name
is Angelica Phonica. 1t must be
gathered in June when in full bloom,
and dried in the shade, and then pull
verified. The dose of this for a grown
person is a small tablespoonful, or in
weight drachrn and a scruple, at
once, in beer or water. For children
the dose is the same, yet it must be
administered at three different times.
In giving it to animals it must be used
green, cut to pieces, and mixed with
bran or other feed. For the hogs the
pulverized weed is made into balls by
mixing it with flour and water. 1t
can also be put on bread and butter,
or in honey, molasses, etc. The Rev.
Henry Muhlenberg says that in Ger
many thirty grains of this powder
are given four times the first day,
then one dose a day for whole week,
while at the same time the wound is
washed out with a decoction of the
weed, and then the powder strewed
in it. Mr.. Kettering says that he in
all instances administered but one
dose, with the most happy results.
This is said to be the same remedy
through which the late DR.. William
Stoy effected so many cures.

Wicked Paris.

1t should not be forgotten that the
French capital is becoming more and
more cosmopolitan, As French nov
elist has recently observed, ''Too many
treat Paris as an equivocal place,
where they may indulge i'm liberties
which would not be tolerated at home"
Still, independently of the foreign ele-
ment, immortality of all kinds is fear
fully prevalent. Vice does not flaunt
itself so openly as in our own metrop-
oils. but it strikes its roots more deep
lv. and interweaves itself more closely
with the whole social system. Intem-
perance-once so rare-eVer since the
last war has been steadily advancing.
The consumption of Intoxicating
drinks, especially of spirits and alb
sinthe, has tripled while insanity,
suicide and crime have been proper
tionatelymultiplied. The bible is seldom
or never read even by the cultured
classes. The Lords Day is by the
great majority still spent in business
or pleasure. The natural result has
been that God, being thus unknown or
forgotten, is by very many openly de-
MED. Infdelity in its most specious
phases is eating like dry-rOt into the
heart of society. FreethOught may in
deed be not unfrequently want OF
thought turning away from what it
imagines religion to be, and rebound
from superstition. Still, those who
know Paris well tell us that material
ism is advancing with rapid strides.
Infidel halls are springing up all over
France, especially in Paris: In one
of these 1000 persons assembled at one
time to hear the name of God bias
phemed and holy things exposed, to
scorn. An infdel, Leon TaXil, has
published comic bible, LA Bible
Amusante," in which the most sacred
verities are held up to ridicule.--Ihe

PIucky Sadie Smith.

At the speechmaking in Gettysburg,
after the arrival of Pickett's division,
Col. William r. Aylett, who succeeded
Gen. Armistead as commander of the
brigade upon the death of Armistead,
was chosen to respond in behalf of
Virginia to Pennsylvania welcome
In the course of his eloquent Grafton
he gave our town more than ordinary
notoriety in that part of his speech re-
ferring to the patriotic women OF the
war. The following are his remarks:.
''But while speaking of the deeds
and glOries of our men, let not the
deeds OF our women be forgotten,
Why, the bravest woman | ever saw
was Pennsylvania girl, who defled
Pickett's whole division while we
marched through little town called
Greencastle. She had United States
flag as an apron, which she defiantly
waved up and down as our columns
passed by her, and dared us to take it
from her. And there was not one
corps who dared to do so. Struck by
her courage and loyalty, Pickett, with
hat off, gave her military salute, my
regiment presented arms, and we
cheered her with good, old-fashioned
Rebel yell, which some of you boys
here have doubtless heard. God bless
the true and brave little woman, and
she was as lovely as she was brave.
Would that she were here to-day that
I might, in admiration of her pluck
and truth, grasp the hand of that
splendid and glorious type of Ameri-
can womanhood She deserves place
by the side of those Carthagenian
maidens who cut off their tresses as
bowstrings to send their lovers arrows
Kissing to the Roman hearth
Numerous nave been the comments
as to who the heroic woman was, and
as it is matter of much interest the
press has done all possible to find out
and place the credit where it is due.
The lady was Miss Sadie Smith, a
daughter of our former townsman, ia
cob r. Smith, who afterward married
Mr.. Sibbett and removed to Youngs-
town, O., but who is now dead. =

A Good Lesson

It is to be regretted that so many
people who 90 for the season to summer
resorts with multitudinous baggage
fail to take with them a reasonable
amount of good breeding and of re-
spect for the rights of others, To-
ward people whom they know or may
know at home they may be decently
polite, but the bearing of many summer
idlers toward the people of the villages
they visit is as intolerably insolent as
any that could be well devised. The
amateur photographer is a stout sinner
in this particular. He intrudes on
private grounds, takes views of ladies
on the rocks or on their own piazzas,
and generally deports himself as if his
amusement excused the absence of all
formalities.
One of these impudent intruders
went into the grounds of a house on
the north shore last week and boldly
planted his camera on the lawn with
view to taking photograph of the
wealthy lawyer who is fond of agri-
culture, was trimming up some shrubs
not far away. He was dressed in
flannel shirt, and the intruding vulgar
ian had not the penetration to know
gentleman by any mark except clothes.
81 beg your pardon" said the owner,
coming up to the photographer, ''but
have you been given permission to
take view of this houseP"
The other looked at him in a sort of
insolent surprise.
81 haven't asked for it," he replied.
sin this part of the world the
lawyer said, sit is considered only
common eiyility to ask leave before
one goes into private grounds and
takes photographs,
''Is that SOP" sneered the PHOTOGRAPH
er impudently. ''What do people do
when you don't ask 1eaveP"
The lawyer is not patient man, but
he is muscular one. The insolence
of the others manner was too much
for his self-contfql, He replied by a
single word:
'sThis"
But the word was accompanied by
vigorous movement which resulted in
the young jackanapes being flung over
the hedge into the street, whittier his
camera followed him with rapidity
that rendered it highly improbable
that the instrument would ever take.
pictures again.
There" the athletic and irate
lawyer called after his fallen foe,
''when you want to come again to take
view of my house and grounds. just
let me know, please.
And leaving the stranger to vent his
rage in language far from elegant, the
lawyer went back to his farming

SOME STARTLING STATEMENTS OF GENERAL
INTEREST.

4 DIR. Oliver Wendall Holmes, on being
asked when the training of a child should
it is born"
Are we to infer from this that this gen
Grafton is responsible for the condition of
the race a hundred years from now?
Is this wonderful generation the natur-
al result of the proper diet and medicines
of hundred years ago?
1t IS conceded in other lands that most
of the wonderful discoveries of the world
in this century have come from this coun-
try. Our ancestors were feared in log
cabins, and suffered hardships and trials
But they lived and enjoyed health to
ripe old age. The women of those DAYS
would endure hardships without apparent
fatigue that would startle those of the
present age.
Why was it?
One of the proprietors of the popular
remedy known as Warmers safe cure. has
been faithfully investigating the cause,
and has called to his aid scientists as well
as medical men, impressing upon them
the fact that there cannot be an effect
without cause. This investigation dis
closed the fact that in the olden times
simple remedies were administered. COM
pounded Of herbs and roots, which were
gathered and stored in the lofts of the
log cabins, and when sickness came on,
~ Il; IL.
were used with the best effects.
What were these remedies? What were
they used for? After untiring and dill
gent search they have obtained the for
mulas so generally used for various dis
orders.
Now the question is, how will the olden
time preparations affect the people of this
age, who have been treated, under mod
ern medical schools and codes, with pois-
onous and injurious drugs. This test
has been carefully pursued, until they are
convinced that the preparations they now
call Warmers Log Cabin remedies are
what our much abused systems require.
Among them is what is known as War
ner's Log CABIN sarsaparlla, and they
frankly announce that the do not consid-
er the sarsaparilla of SO much value in
itself as it is in the combination of the
various ingredients which together work
marvelously upon the system. They also
have preparations for other diseases, such
as warmers Log Cabin cough and con-
sumption remedy" ''Log Cabin hops and
buchu remedy" 'Warner's Log Cabin
hair tonic" They have great confidence
that they have a cure for the common
disease of catarrh, which they give the
name of LOG Cabin rose cream Also
LOG Cabin plaster" which they are
confident will supplant all others, and a
liver pill, to be used separately or in con-
nection with the other remedies.
We hope that the public will not be
disappointed in these remedies, but will
and that the proprietors will not be en-
barrased in their Introduction by dealers
trying to substitute remedies that have
been so familiar to the shelves of our
druggists. This line of remedies will be
used instead of others. Insist upon your
druggist getting them for you if he hasn't
them yet in stock, and we feel confident
that these new remedies will receive APP
probation at our readers hands, as the
founders have used every care in their
preparation.
