A HOSPITAL MYSTERY.
Charity Patient Wondered How He
Lived Without Food.

Lived Without Food.
A patient in the Presbyterian hos
pital is an Italian, with large, dark,
soulful eyes. who was brought in
about three weeks ago dangerously Ill
with some complaint that forbade his
eating any solid food. At first he
could not eat at all, and had no in
clination to, but as soon as the crisis
was passed they began to dribble beef
tea and arrowroot cruel into him.
He was afraid Of these forms of
nourishment at first, and when his
nurse make him understand that he
must take it he looked at her with an
expression of the same reproachfuI
apprehension that an intelligent dog
might use looking at the person who
was about to administer to it a dose
of prussic acid. He took 1t with the
same despairing docility as the dog
might have taken his fatal draught,
though his pale brow was dewed with
beads of anguish. Then he looked
slightly relieved and murmured:
"It is not so bad"
A morning or two ago, when a
friend called to see him, he said, in
reply to the friends inquiry:
II am weak, but if l could geta
me home and geta me something to
eat in mya estomacha | should be
more better. 1t is a curiesea how

MAIDSTONE Acrs goa CHARM.
Successful Treatment Of a Horse BIT
ten BY a Mad Dog.


Cincinnati has a real maidstone. II
was tested Tuesday on horse that
had been bitten by a mad dog and It
worked like a charm. The owner Of
the stone is Asa Richardson, of No.
515 East Pearl street
Several days ago a fine horse be-
longing to a farmer who has a place
about twelve miles up the river was
attacked by a dog that had all the
symptoms Of hydrophobia. The dog
fastened its fangs in the tender part
OF the horses nostril and tore It loose
from the upper lip. making a terrible
wound. The nostril swelled and
turned as black ms coal, filling the air
passage and almost suffOcating the
poor animal 1t was in this condition
when taken to Richardson on Tues
day and application made for the use
of the maidstone.
The stone is small, crystalline for
nation, of a pretty shade of blue, but
very adhesive when placed on a
wound containing any poison. When
placed on the torn nOstril of the horse
It stuck like a piece of steel to a pow.
erful magnet. When filed with the
poison it dropped off and was at once
immersed in lukewarm water, into
which it discharged the fluid it had
extracted from the wound. The
poison formed a greenish scum on the
water and was pronounced to be the
virus from hydrophobia. Fifteen
times the stone held to the wound
only dropping from 1t when filed with
the virus. On the sixteenth applica
tion it refused to T. e hold, and Rich
ardson said there was no more poisor
| in the animal.
The application OF the maidstone
worked wonders in the appearance Of
the nostrils of the horse. The blacl
clotted blood disappeared, the swell
ing was reduced and the heavy darl
ridges gave way to a healthy looking
color. The horse was taken back t,
the farm, and Richardson says it will
not be bothered with the rabies.-
