The Appeal., 1890-01-04

oAASA C4du,
on double-quick the main body. The
details of the attack are interesting.
At first a goblet half full of paregorio
was fired into the facial embrasure Of
Mr.. Bangs, and the shot was almost in
stantly repeated. Then a jug of white
hot water was placed at his feet, and
his entire vetebral region was lami-
mated with all the hot covers from the
cooking range. Being hot enough to
toast bread, they made themselves felt.
And then all the bottles of the neigh
borhood were filled with boiling water
and laid on him wherever there was
room. Where there were spaces too
small for bottle they used walls.
After this there was some more laud-
anum. Soused with laudanum, envel-
oped with sizzling griddles, hot water
bottles, jugs and walls without number,
the Chill retreated in disorder and in
great disgust. Almost any thing else
would have done the same under the
same circumstances.

It was about noon Friday when the
Chill took itself off, To continue in mil
itary language, itwas determined to fol-
low up the retreating foe and utterly
destroy him.
To accomplish this Commander M. D.
sent out squadron of cavalry in the
shape of heavy column of ipecac. In
some ten minutes the advance was fol-
lowed by another ipecac detachment.
The effect Of the cavalry movement was
efficient.
A little after dark on Friday the main
body was ordered to engage in the pur-
| suit. The main body consisted of the
following regiments:
@Quinine. ~ ~ -, -.---.. ..- -~
Calomel.
All of Friday night, every two hours,
a body consisting of the same regiments
OF ''regulars'' was sent on to aid in the
pursuit. BY daylight all were on their
way, and formidable host they were,
too. Saturday the thermometer stood at
81. 1t was a hot day for the pursuit, but
the chase was kept up with vigor. The
main body was halted after march of
twelve hours, and then four-grain bat
talions of quinine were sent on every
two hours after the flying Chill.
Thus passed Saturday. To drop mill
tary metaphor, Bangs began to get we'll
rapidly. Sunday morning he could not
have brushed an infant mosquito from
his nose. He had eaten nothing from
Wednesday night, and teaspoonful of
beef tea was hearty breakfast for him.
Anybody will see that getting we'll is
difficult unless one knows how. After
reading this article any one can see how
it is done.
To complete Bangs cure on Sunday he
was given aromatic sulphuric acid. On
Monday there was added to his acid pow
! ders of leptandrin and quinine measuring
| a teaspoonful each. Then he was given
some slippery elm bark tea and decoc-
tion of Peruvian bark. Besides these
he was blistered with mustard drafts,
plastered all over with horse-radish
leaves and buried under hops soaked in
hot vinegar. And so on. On Monday
Bangs was we'll. He looked in the mir
ror and saw pale skeleton with blood
shot eyes. Says Bangs: 'It is we'll to
be we'll. am so hearty that can dis
pose of whole teaspoonful of beef tea
at a single meal. 1 am so strong that
with only the assistance of a couple Of
men I can go anywhere in the room. I
am gaining SO rapidly that in a week or
two will be willing to match myself
with any yearling babe in tbScity."
