Mrs. Tall for her kindness and

Mrs. TAU for her kindness and
tender care of this dying brother, is
due the gratitude Of everyone con-
nected with the Infirmary, also OF
patients under care of same, for to
them it speaks volumes, causing
them to know that in case any OF
them should hy any means hecom"
similarly situated, they will not
lack prompt and efficient care.
And to other friends and brothers
of the mystic order, who did 80
much for the departed one, we
would say-"In as much as ye did
it unto one of the least of these my
brethren ye did it unto Me-" A
short service was conducted by
Rev. Garfield of the Episcopal
church at the residence of Mrs.
Tull at 10 O'CLOCK p. m. attended
by large number of sympathiz-
ing friends, and at midnight the
sorrowing brother left with the re-
mains for their far eastern home.
This is a sad incident, yet of near
ly every day occurrence in all COM
munities, but it in no way reflects
upon the institution nor it's man
agement, as Mr.. st. John was at
no time considered as one of its
patients, and was beyond earthly
help when he came here.
The writer expects to soon leave
Kirksville and the care of DIR.
Still, and wishes here and now to
bear testimony to the vast number
of christian men and women with
whom he became acquainted, and
the many acts of kindness shown
him during his stay of three
months in your beautiful city.
And to DR.. Still and the men and
women he has taught and trained
in his School of Osteopathy, and
especially those under whose di-
rect care he has been, can only
say his use of the English language
is not sufficient to express his
gratitude. To those now in school
he wishes to say: "Show you1-
selves men and women, not mere
things; realize that you must work,
provided you would attain the top,
and be content with no other place.
You surely have grand and no.
BILE science to master, and unless
you do master it you are dis
grace to its founder. Osteopathy
is destined to become, in a few
years, the standard mode of treat
ment; to it nearly all pronounced
incurables now apply, and in a
short time nearly all diseases will
be treated by its principles. There
fore be equal to your opportunities.
Master the whole thing and future
generations will abound with your
praise.

you reap. A big cotton crop means low

The Harlequin Cabbage BUG.

This insect is by far the worst pest
OF the cabbage in the south. A ma i've
of more tropical climate, probably
Mexico. it has gradually worked its
way northward and for several years
has been very abundant 10 this State.
With the increase of cabbage growing
for shipment to the early northern mar
kets and TO supply the home demand,
there also comes an increase in the
number of insect pests which attack
the crop, the hardest to get rid OF be-
ing the harlequin dabbage bug. The
insect is so well known as to make a
description of it almost unnecessary.
The mature Insects are nearly oval,
about an inch long, black with red
markings. The young differ from
these in being less marked with red,
smaller, and without wings. The in
sects suck the juices of the plants, and
attacked plants a. first look as IL they
needed water, then turn yellow and die.

When domestic work animals have
collie, it il the fault of the man who
handles Thorn. In the natural wild state
collie is unknown. 1t does not matter
who the person is, white or black, the
above is true. Now, for the benefit Of
such careless, financially-suicidai per-
sons we give the remedies recommended
by the A. g. M. College for the disease
which has cost untold millions. There
are two forms Of the malady -spasmod-
ic, in which there is pain without
swelling. The animal squats, looks
around at the side, lies down. but
quickly rises, attempts to urinate and
seems in great agony. Don't mistake
it for "bots," gravel, or some other
nonsense, but call it collie and save yeur
animal by giving at one dose one Of the
following remedies:
/. ChlorAl hydrrte. l o.; sulphate OF
atropia, grain; water, pint.
3. Sulphuric ether. 2 o.; laudanum,
II o.; raw linseed oil, 8 OF.
3. Laudanum. 2 or; oil turpentine,
II OF; raw linseed oil, 8 OF.
Repeat every hour until relieved.
Our preference would be for the first.

This is too well knnown by the pain
and swelling to require description. For
this TO, m give the following In half
or one hour until relieved:
Choral hydrate, ! o.; hyposulphite
OF soda, 2 o.; snlphate atrophia. gr.;
water, s OF.
We would add from one hBlf to one
ounce of laudanum to the formula. II
the pain ceases continue only the hypo-
sulphats of soda until the bloat goes
down. Don't use tobacco in the rec
tum or practice any other foolishness.
If you want to do anything in this line
use large injections Of warm water or
inject five or six ounces Of pure glycer-
inc, ard, If you have it, add five or SIX
drops of croton oil to it. This will
assuredly make the large bowels act.
Don't listen to every ignoramus who
offers you remedy, or you will be sure
to have dead mule. Stick to the above
treatment, and be sure the animal gets
each dose of medicine, and you will
not lose one in fifty If treatment is be-
gun in time and faithfully carried out.
As last resort, if the animal is in
great danger of dying from the disten-
sion Of gas, plunge trocar or knife
into its bowels in the flank and let the
gas out.
Cut this this out and put in your
scrap book which you onght to keep. n

the article on the Harlequin Cabbage
Bug in this issue, 1t is an extremely
dangerous pest. as its depradations are
extensive and ruinious ,and the only
means of destroying SO far, is to. catch
and kin it. We had it in our garden
last year, and sent specimens to the
Entomologist at Washington, because
we got scared about it. as it held the
fort against all our tactics. Begin to
