CURE FOR SMALLPOX.
simple and ERectuai Remedy That
All should Know.

u
For more than a year past the
smallpox scourge has been malig-
nant through portions OF Utah and
Montana, and during the past few
months it has spread into this State,
cases having been quarantined at
Elko, Battle Mountain, and other
places. In view of this fact the
following recipe. which is furnished
by Dallas, (Texas) lady. and which
is said to have been used with sue
cess in hundreds Of cases, should be
in the hands of all persons who
would be prepared for visitation Of
the dread disease. The lady says:
Il herewith append recipe which
has been in use to my knowledge in
hundreds of cases Of smallpox. II
will prevent or cure, even though
the pittings are filling. When Jen-
ner discovered the cow>pox in Eng
land the world of science over.
whelmed him with fame, but when
the most scientific school of medi-
cine in the world, that Of Paris. pub
lished this recipe it went unheeded.
1t is as unfailing as fate, and con.
quers in every instance. It will
also cure scarlet fever. Here is the
recipe as l have used il to cure
smallpox: Sulphate of zinc, one
grain; digtails, one grain; sugar,
one half teaspoonful. Dissolve in
wine glass of soft water or water
which has been boiled and cooled.
Take teaspoonful every hour.
Either smallpox or scarlet fever will
disappear in twelve hours. For
children the dose must be diminished
according to age. If countries
would compel their physicians to
use this treatment there would be
no use for pest.houses. If you value
your life use this recipe"

AT q meeting of the Cabinet at
Washington on Friday Of last week
the matter of money system for
the Philippine Islands was taken up
and considered. The proposition
which seems to have met with favor
by the Administration is to purchase
silver bullion and coin it into distinc
tive dollars having gold value Of
about fifty cents each. These dol
lars, IL is understood will contain a
little less silver than the present
standard dollars. AT the present
time nearly all the business of the
islands is transacted in Mexican dol
lars, and those who are supplied with
United States money find ii difficult
at times TO make purchases from the
natives, for the reason that the latter
know nothing of our money or its
value.

RUSSIA AT THE YALU.

Recently the Picking correspondent of
The Jill Shimpo reported that Russia
vas about to dispatch to the neighbour
hod of the Yalu, in Corea, part of the
troops stationed at Port Arthur, later
the Jill learned from a reliable source
that Russia has communicated with the
Power most interested, that is Japan,
that she intends to send a party of
some thirty men of the Medical Corps
10 the south of the Yalu on the borders
Of Corea. Considering the fact that
Russia is stationing a large number of
troops at different points in Manchuria
for the purposes of surveying railway
routes and other objects, it is not sur
prising that she should have sent a
small party of sanitary men. Whether
among the so-called sanitary men there
are some who have some other duties
30 perform, however, is another ques'
zion

WONDERFUL SEA-GRONTHS
REMARKABLE FINDS ON THE HULL
OF THE KAIMILOA.
Curio Hunters Reap Harvest at the
Marine Railway-Large Pearl oyster
Shells and Sponges.

The hull of the old Kaimloa was a
wonderful sight when it was disclosed
to view yesterday afternoon after she
bad been hauled upon the dry dock.
One Of the most remarkable grOwths
of crustaUea and sea-weed ever seen

that mad been under the water during
her long period of idleness.
&IIrio hunters were out i'm full force
as soon as the news of the strange
sroWths spread about the water front.
There were pearl oysters eight inches
m diameter hanging on to the copper
Bottom, while around them chung small
er ones that were just beginning to eX-
tend themselves The large ones were
gathered up as fast as possible by the
native wOrkmen and children on the
spot and this morning they were SELL
ing at high prices The shell is a most
beautiful one when opened out and
cleaned, and many people visited the
marine railway this morning in the
hope of getting hold of some.
Another interesting feature of the
mass of sea grOwths that chung to the
lOng-Soaked copper was the sponEes.

They were young" and had grown IN

came almost a perfect white. These
were gathered up as mementos almost
as quickly as the pearl oysters. All

which is one of the reminders of the
days of the monarchy and an object Of
interest to all Hawaiian people.
The scraping Of the bottom was be-
