An Alleged Cure for Smallpox.
- "For long time I have wished to
send you the following smallpox cure,
but had misplaced the article. am

Portland (Me.) paper in 1856 or 1865.
They took it from Halls Journal of,
Health, New York.
''Iherewith append the recipe, which
has been used to my knowledge in
hundreds of cases.. It will prevent or
cure smallpox, though the pittings are
filling. When Jenner discovered the
cowpo1 in England, the world of sci
ence hurled an avalanche of fame upon
his head, but when the most scientific
school of medicine in the world, that
Of Paris, published this recipe as a
panacea for smallpox :, it passed I'M
needed. It is unfailing as fate and
conquers in every instance. It is harm
less when taken by well person. It
will also cure scarlet fever.
"Here is the recipe as I have used it
to cure smallpox when learned physi-
clans have said the patient must die.
Sulphate, Of zinc, one grain; .foxglove
(digitalis), one grain; half a teaspoon
full of sugar. Mix with two teaspoon
fuls of water; when thoroughly mixed
add four ounces of water; take a
spoonful every hour. Either disease
will disappear in IL hours. For q
child, smaller doses, according to age.
If counties would counsel their physi-
clans to use this there would be no
need Of pesthouses. If you value ad-
vice and experience, use this for that
terrible disease. .>~.'.s
