Folklore and Folk Cure.

Some of the scientists who make
a speciality of folklore have lately
been making inquiries about the mall
ady which the country people called
spring fever. 1t lisa genuine malady,
though more disagreeable than seri
Gus. Yet it should be taken note of.
While the scientist are inquiring
about the tone Of the malady, tho e
who are suffering the lassltude, nerv-
business and melancholia, that are it's
symptoms, should run the disease
out Of their systems by means of
that more subtle scientist and folk
cIrest-S. S. S. This is particularly
necessary, since spring fever leaves
the system in such a condition that

are more dangerous and less easily
