Prof. Dixi Crosby, M. D., LII D.,
who for thirty-two years was at the
head of Dartmouth Medical College,
belonged to the famous Crosby family
Of physicians, which forseveral gener-
ations has furnished more distin-
guished medical men than any other
family In America. His father was
DR.. Asa Crosby, of Dartmouth, who
procured tho charter Of the State
medical society, OF which he was for
thirty years a conspicuous member;
one brother, DR.. Josiah Crosby, in
vented the invalid bed and the method
of making extensions Of fractured
limbs by adhesive strips; another
brother, DR.. Thos. r. Crosby, was
chief surgeon in Columbian College
Hospital during the war, and later
professor Of animal and vegetable
physiology at Dartmouth College;
while DR.. Dixi Crosby himself was
the inventor and discoverer of various
important improvements in medicine
and surgery, including . new and
unique mode Of reducing metacarpo-
phalangeal dislocation, opening Of abb
scess at hip-joint, etc., etc.

coming disease had already attracted
the attention Of medical men through
out the world, and won for him the
highest honors. His greatest achieve.
ment was the discovery of an original
method for perfecting and compound
ing in permanent form what has be-
come known as his "prize formula"
and which, under the name Of Puri-
tana, is legally protected.
The foundation of this remarkable
medical discovery consists of simple
New England roots and herbs, and the
original family recipe for it has de-
scended to the long line Of Crosby
physicians from their Puritan ances-
tors. Its peculiar vegetable compost
tion rendered It necessary to brew 1t

its histoy7, and after the scattering of
the Purit families to remote local..
ties, wher9 the necessary Ingredients
were not to be found, many attempts
were made to put it up in permanent
form, all OF which failed until DR.. Dixi
Crosby discovered means and methods,
the result of which is: Natures Cure

1t was a merry party which assembled at
the Odd Fellows Hall, John street, last
evening, and the occasion proved the
social success of the season. The affair
was in the form of a clothes-pin party,
and as each lady and gentleman entered
the hall they were given clothes pins, each
pin numbered, and whatever numbers
corresponded the gentleman was supposed
to take the lady down to supper. In the
shuttle of numbers the boys and their best
girls got separated and some other fellow
took some other girl to lunch. 1t was a
comical mix-up, yet was enjoyed by all
present. Gallagher's orchestra furnished
the music for the dancing.
