pound: black antimony, one ounce.
Grind and mix well the remedy before
using.
The following are the directions for
using:
1. Sick hogs in all cases to be sepa-
rated from the well ones and placed in
dry pens, with only five large hogs or
eight small ones In each pen.
:. Feed nothing but dry food, but no
water, only the slop containing the
remedy, until cured.
J. When hogs refuse to eat, turn
them on their backs, and then. with a
long handled spoon, put the dry medi-
cine down their throats.
T. Dose for large hogs: One tea.
spoonful three times a day for thru,
days; then miss one day, and repeat
amount until cured. Shoats or pigx.
one-half the amount.
D As preventive, one tesspoouful

HOG CHOLERA
Valuable Insorm.,,oa to Raiser, of swim.

Valuable Information TO Rsisers of Swine.
Please give symptoms and bes. treat
ment for hog cholera--w T. c., New
Berne. \. C.
Answer-The following remedies are
the best that can be procured for this
dread disease: The first 10 from the
United States department.; the second
was sent me by friend with an ur-
gent request to publish. We would
very r7uch like to know II the latter
accomplishes all that Is claimed for 1t.
Some Of the symptoms of cholera are,
short. hoarse cough, fever running at
the nose, shivering, efforts to vomit,
totter.ng gait and sometimes paralysis,
constipation. succeeded by diarrhaa,
dark Purple blotches on the skin, with
great soreness and sometimes ulcera-
tion.
DIR. Salmon, the chief of the bureau
Of animal industry, has Just issued q
bulletin on this subject which ought
to be in the hands of every hog
keeper, and can be obtained on appli-
cation to the department of agricui-
ture, Washington, d. C. DR.. Salmon
says that whilst no absolutely certain
cure can be found for any disease, and
certainly not for hog cholera, vet
that. as the result OF long series OF
experiments. the following has been
found to be q most eficacious formula
In most cases of this disease, and is
valuable as a preventive:
Wooe charcoal. one pound; sulphur.
one pound: sodium chloride, two
pounds sodium biearbonate, two
pounds; sodium hyposulphite. two
pounds; sodium sulphste. one pound;
sntimony sulphide, one pound
Pelverize and thoroughly mix. and

PARSLEY AFTER ONIONS.
The Herb Will Remove the I'm
pleasant Oder of the Vegi-
table.

At this season of the year, when the
digestive system is apt to become
overloaded with rich, greasy or
sweet foods, plenty of onions should
be eaten as counterbalance. They
are good for the stomach, the COM
plexion aud the nerves when eaten
either boiled or raw, but, OF course,
the unpleasant odor left on the breath
after Indulgence in them is barrier
to their use to many people who
would otherwise be able to take adj
vantage of the good there is in them .
To overcome all this and give every
one a chance an old remedy is sug-
gested-parsley. TO entirely destroy
the bad odor of onions, eat a small
sprig of this pretty green oern either
with'your meal or Immediately after
it. There will be nothing in the
breath or about the person at all sug-
gestive of the odoriferous bulb five
minutes after the parsley is eaten.
Anyone can have parsley, for, if he
does not have access TO that con en-
fence known as "soup bunch" it
may be readily grown in any warm
sunny window. Soak the seeds
twenty -four hours before planting, in
water that the chill has Deem removed
and, after planting, water plentifully +.
The little green heads will peep over
the earth in about fifteen days, and
when the plants are well grown, your

love and courage showed strongly to-
day when Mrs. Mary Welsh left a
tourth-story window of heI home at

Walsh was still ia bed with her chill
band. Her husband, letter carrier,
had gone to work half an hour before.
Mrs. Walsh awOke TO find her room
in flames The force of the fire and
smoke had already blown out a rear
window in the house. Mrs. Walsh
caught her two children up and ran
through the flames to the fire escape.
The fire burned off their night gowns
and scorched Of their hair and flesh
Icicles hung from the fire escape lad
der down which she had to climb. A
beam had fallen across her shoulders
as she ran through the burning room.
and left an ugly bruise. Mrs. Walsh
climbed down the first ladder andstood
on level with an adjoining house
where man named Richter, who was
awakened by the fire met her and took
the children from her arms. Then
Mrs. Walsh was herself assisted down.
The surgeon at the hospital to which
they were taken, said he thought the

The rapidly with which certain
species OF insects move is something
truly astonishing. The common
house fly is known to make 600
strokes per second with his wings and
the dragon fly 1900. In the case OF
the fly the 600 strokes causes an adj.
vance movement of twenty seven feet.
These are figures on ordinary flight,
aud it is believed that the fly is cap
bic of increasing both the strokes and
advancement seveD-fold.
