Canine Intelligence.

A Texas paper prints the following
about a former Lancaster boy, which
goes to show that Andy still keeps
his "hand I'M when it cones to telling
fishing and hunting stories:
"Dr Burnside has bird dog named
Carlo which he claims has few if any
equals for intelligence. He can come
near proving this assertion, he says,
by a number of persons who were
hunting with him recently, among the
party there were several ladies and a
preacher. While shooting birds over
in the Territory the Doctor lost the
fore end piece of his shot gun, and had
tramped around several miles before
he discovered that it was missing.
Having faith in Carlos superior sagac-
ity, he called him up. let him smell of
the gun, and then started him on the
back track, keeping close to him.
After tracing out various crooks, cir
cults and crosses. Carlo at last picked
up the missing piece of the gun and
brought it to his master, with look
and manner that fully indicated he
clearly understood what he had been
required to do"

A Cure for SMALLPOX.

A recipe is herewith app ended which
has been used to my knowledge in
hundreds of cases. 1t will prevenr or
cure the smallpox through the pit
tings are filling. When Jenner dis
covered cow-pox in England, the world
OF science hurled an avalanche of fame
upon his head, but wi en- the most
scientific school of medicine in the
wor.d-that of Paris-pub lished this
as a panacea for small pox, it passed
unheeded. 1t is as unfailing as fate,
and cures in every iRstancei it is harm
less when taken by we'll person. 1t
will also cures scarlet feve-. Here is
the recipe as l have used it to cure
nv ch;liren of the scarlet fever; and
also to cure smallpox. When learned
physicians said the patient must die,
it cured: Sulphate of zinc, one grain;
fox glove (digitalis) one grain; hall
teaspoon of sugar. Mix with two
tablespoons full Of water. Either dis
ease will disappear in twelve hour.
For a chilli smaller, doses according
to age.-Ex.
