A Cure for rheumatism.

81 see by the papers that some
French physician treats rheumatism
successfully by applying the business
end OF bees to the parts afflicted" said
we'll known railroad man, recently
returning from n trip to Mexico, to
Philadclphian. "The only difficulty
the physician finds in this treatment
is, believe, that he has to use such .
large number of bees to get up tho
necessary countcr-irritation, or what
ever it is. II he will take pointer in
that direction | can give him one that
will let him right out OF all his trouble.
What he wants to do Is to get an in
voice of Mexican wasps. II he wants
to knock the rheumatism let him get a
few Mexican wasps. The enterprising
insect is two inches long when it's Of
age, and has singer with a full
inch plunge, 1t Is nOnfOrfeitable
singer, too. 1t don't yield itself Up at
a single plunge, as bees singer
does, but is good for an all days job.
Tho Mexican wasp is just the color
of bay horse and it will go ten miles
out of its way to sting man. 1t
doesn't seem to have anything else to
do but to look out for people and then
turn its singer loose on them. The
natives get fat on centipcdc bites and
scorpion stings, but they will dive fQp

the greatest willingness and was sorry
when they told me that n wasps
