Some years ago case OF small

oped in my house, which proved
fatal. My only boy, ton years of

vatod type of contluent pestules. A
friend who was in deep sympathy

from newspaper, in substance as
follows:

phate of zinc; put into a pint Of puro
water, swoeton with sugar, shake
Dose as preventive, ono tablespoon

two hours when fover is high until

This remedy wGs used by my
household with one exception, a ne

symptoms of tho disease, except the
negro man, who had every evidence
of tho disease in it's initiatory stages.

treatment. In thirty-s six hours he
was up without On eruption.
The writer Of the clipping referred
to also stated that he had Of his per-
sonal knowledge known it tested in
hundreds Of cases, and it had never
failed to prevent or cure In single
instance. And that this remedy
originated in one OF the fineAt schools
on earth, that Of Paris. And that it
was strange that the medical profess
sion had never adopted it.

ty, has devised a method of preserving
the, history of the Confederate soldiers
from that county as novel as it must be
effective.
His plan is to get a complete roster of
the troops that Franklin sent to the war
and pass it around to every house in the
county with the request that any Informal
ton possessed touching a name on the
list be written opposite that name Space
would of course be left for that purpose.
In this way much valuable historic
material now trembling ON the brink Of
oblivion will be saved.
Similar work should be done in every
county in the State. Tongues that could
speak with authority are fast being ST.
fenced forever. In the great intellect
ual awakening, on whose threshold
hope that we even now stand, every
scrap of our history, and especially of
our war history, will be regarded of val
ne. And the most valuable material
Will be the plain unvarnished utterances
of the people who speak from their own
experience and from their own divers
points of view.
Somebody evidently thinks that deal
ing in futures is MOTTO a sufficient ex-
tent at least-fts own punishment; for
divers citizens of Vance have been sub
poenaed to appear before then ext grant
jury and testify as to that exceedingly
popular, though somewhat expensive di-
version.
