INFECTED AREA WIDENING
Cholera Situation Give, Concern-Six-
ty.Six New Cases and Twenty-Thrcc
Deaths.

Berlin, September At was official
~ buketined today that s~iXty-six chOl-
era cases and % deaths occurred in
Prussia. OF this. number ten new
cases and three deaths were reported
Up to noon today.
While anxiety is not yet the word TO
desUibe the feeling in the imperial
health Office, concern over the cholera
situation does begin to exist. Most of
the neW cases do not break out among
the ~qutrantined persons but are sud
denly nerd of in detached farm hous-
es or vllhges, not contiguous to the
E1stula. Fence the inference is that
the infected area is widening slowly
n that the measures to hold the dis
ease strictly within the existing bOun-
daires have not been fully successful.
These measures, however, are being
sharply increased.

L ON THE FROG
How 4 Typhoid Patient Was Treated
i'm Catawba County.

The Newton correspondent Of the
Charlotte News gives a new sort of
treatment for typhoid fever as fol-
lows:
Your correspondent, like other
people, lives and learns. He discover
ed yesterday that a toad applied to the
foot of a fever patient and kept there,
would certainly cure the patient. 1t
may be that the same is a well known
remedy, known of old, but it is new
here. A young man in this county has
been very low with typhoid fever for
several weeks; so i'll, in fact, that the
physicians CAV him up to die. An
other young man one suffered with
typhoid and took the frog treatment
adm was cured, and so the treatment
was applied to the patient mentioned
with gratifying results The young
man is reported as c~onvalescing. The
toads, the story runneth, turn green
and die, having drawn all the fever
from the patient. 1t seem to be an
excellent remedy but it is tough on
the frog"
