Eating the Flesh Of Poisoned Animals.

The subject of the use of the flesh of
animals killed by poison has been studied
by Schmidt Mulheim with view to de-
termine whether, if eaten by men, such
flesh would be injurious. AS reported
in the Revista Internazionale d'Igiene of
Naples for June, 1891, it may be used
without any danger whatever. Many
savage races constantly use the flesh of
the animals that have been Killed with
poisoned weapons and have never been
injured by that means. Harms has
proved Universal Medical Magazine)
that the flesh of animals that have been
poisoned with nux vomica and with tar
tarized anthony is not at all hurtful;
Feser has demonstrated the same fact in
regard to strychine and eserinb; Spallan-
zani, Zappi, and Sonnenschein have done
the same for arsenic. Froehner and
Knudson have made some experiments
for this purpose with strychine and with
eserinc. They fed dogs with large guam
titles of mutton poisoned with strychine
and eserine, and they found that no in
jury whatever was done to the. animals.
Besides, they themselves ate spme of the
poisoned meat and drank soup made from
it, and found that the flavor was good
and had no injurious effects whatever on
the system. In regard to the alleged in
furious effects caused by the meat Of
animals poisoned with hellebore, and
which had eaten belladonna leaves, the
authors have shown that the accounts
published in this regard have not been
proved and require further tests

Money in Raising Frogs.

j. F. Frederick and N. A. Frey have
an extensive farm near Green Lane,
Penn, devoted to the culture of bull
frogs for the Norristown market. A
twenty acre space enclosed with a high
fence, and covered with a lake and
swamp, is set apart for feeding the am
phibia. After two seasons the frog pond
now brings in greater cash revenue
than all the other products of the farm
combined.
Mr.. Frederick has made special
study of frogs, and two years ago con-
ceived the idea of raising them systemat-
ically for profit. When he first began
operations the other farmers in the neigh
borhood ridiculed the idea. This sum-
mer's business, however, has opened
their eyes, SO that number of them are
contemplating similar enterprises. The
frogs legs bring ten cents per pair.
The sales from the farm now amount to
about 1900 pairs each week.-New York

There's a scide difs-enc.

There's a acide difference
between the help that's talked of
and the help that's guaranteed.
Which do you want, when you're
buying medicine2
If you're satisfied with words, you
get them with every blood-purifer
but one. That one is DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. With
that, you get guarantee. If it
doesn't help you, you have your
money back. On this plan, medi-
cine that promises help is pretty
sure to give it.
But it's because the medicine is
different, that it's sold differently.
It's not like the sarsaparillas, which
are said to be good for the blood
in March, April, and May. At all
seasons and in all cases, it cures
permanently, as nothing else can,
all the diseases arising from tor
pid liver or from impure blood.
It's the best blood purifier, and
it's the cheapest, no matter how
many doses are offered for dollar.
With this, you pay only for the
good you get.
Can you ask more?

When Snake Poison Is Harmless.

Nature sc ems to have provided that no
poison which acts externally shall have
any effect internally, and vice versa.
Thus the most deadly snake venom can
be swallowed with imprnity, the juice
of the stomach presumably decomposing
it and rendering it harmless. Many ex-
periments have been made to prove this.
On one occasion recorded by Humboldt
one person swallowed the whole of the
poison that could be obtained from four
Italian vipers without suffering any bad
consequences. In the same way the
poison from the envenomed arrows of
South American Indians can be swal-
lowed with safety, provided only that
there is no wound on the lips or inside
of the mouth. Washington Post.

Every physician of extensive practice ad-
mits the difficulty-nay, almost hopelessness
of treating Nephritic tkidney) troublex

perience in practicing my profession had
reached the same conclusion, and that our
usual therapeutical agents were wholly inad-
equate to cope with such diseases, when my
attention was called to DIR. Kilmer's Swamp

have always been prejudiced against ths
use of patent medicines ia failure peculiar to
, the members of my profession. but hers
was preparation discovered by an old and
scientific physician whose wide experience.
extending over many years, had given him
exceptional advantages for treating disease
successfully. Was it not. then, possible that
he had found cure where others had failefs
l determined to test the matter.
Shortly after arriving at this conclusion a
young man came to consult me who had
been great sufferer from Ki6Aey and
Liver troubles for many years. He had
been treated by number of our Leading
physicians without obtaining any relief. ana
came to me as a last resort though with very
little faith in my ability to effect cure. /
prescribed DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root for
him, and after taking the first bottle his
condition was materially improved. Hs
continued the treatment until he had used
three bottles when be was entirely cured and
to-day he is the picture of robust health and
vitality. Since then I have prescribed
Swamp Root for number of my patients.
and always with the most gratifying results,
and now believe it to be the best remedy
for all Kidney, Liver and Bladder com
plants, both chronic or acute, known to the
world, if not an actual specific.
With DR.. Kimer's U. & o. Anointmens +
have cured the most stubborn case uf
hemorrhoids, or piles of ten years standing
which had been pronounced incurable after
all the approved remedies had been tried
without avail.
It is needless to add that experience has
confirmed my entire confidence e DR.. XII
mer's preparations, which frequently pro-
scribe for my patients and invariably with
the happiest results; therefore it affords me
great pleasure to most cordially recommend
them to suffering humanity and to the medi-
cal profession, as feel sure they will 40
complish all and even more than is claimed
for them in every instance.
