Dog Meat for Consumption.

Miss Maggie Donnagher, of Shelbyville,
Ind. who has been eating dog meat the
past seven weeks for the cure of con-
sumption. is now confined TO her bed with
the grip and not knowing the nature OF
the cause which made her take her
bed many skeptics proclaim the dog treat
inert failure. The girl has been per-
sistent in the treatment and has con-
sumed seven dogs. When she began the
treatment she was much reduced in flesh
and had taken her bed, as many supposed,
to die. After continuing this diet two
weeks she arose from her bed and began
to work and has continued doing house
work until within the past few days. when
she was attacked by the grip. 1t is
claimed, by those who saw her nearly
every day, that she gained health and
strength rapidly and continuously until the
new disease, which is epidemic in this
locality, attacked her.

basket for customer which he had

explosion followed. The conclusion was
terrific pieces of the building being blown
