A Cure for Small Pox.

L herewith append IA receipt which
has been used, to my knowledge. in
hundreds of cases. 1t will prevent or
cure small pox, though the pittings
are filling. When Jenner discovered
cow-pox 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
receipt as a panacea for small pox it
passed UNDECIDED. 1t is as unfailing
as fate, and conquers in every in
stance. 1t is harmless when taken by
a well person. Ii will also cure scar
let fever. Here is the receipt. as /
have used it to cure my children of
scarlet fever, and cured small pox
when learned physicians said the pa
tient must die: Sulphate of zinc, one
grain: digitalis tfox-glovel, one grain:
sugar, half a teaspoonful. Mix with
two tablespoonsfuls of water. After
thoroughly mixed, add four ounces of
water Take tablespoonful every
hour For children, smaller doses.
according to age Either disease will
disappear in twelve hours. If you
value advice and experience, use this
for these terrible diseases-Cor.S Stock

Poets can sing the praises of the
sleigh ride but judging by the small
number of sleighing parties we be-
lieve some of the young people have
the poetry somewhat knocked out of
them. Well, its alright boys, you can
hug her in the cosy corner of Paws
back parlor and not freeze either, but
when we were a boy Paws back par
lor was as cold as cold storage plant,
so we had to take her sleigh riding to
keep warm.

cumstances surrounding the event OF
their departure were unfortunate,
and all hope that in their new loca-
tion that happiness and prosperity
will smile on them. Mrs. Null took
quite an active part in church and
social affairs and formed large circle
of warm friends. She was a very
bright Intelligent woman and possess
ed so many admirable qualities that
to know her was to like her, and she
will be greatly missed by her friends.
Last Friday Il young man who lives
in the neighborhood of Bosnia came

mules out all night tied behind the

before morning. This same young
man hied away to enjoy himself
while the poor beasts stood out dur
ing the bitter cold of the night. Rev
Erickson humanely carried over some
alfalfa for them ard when Marshal
Bundy discovered them in the morn
ing he put them in livery stable.
There are many things that might be
said In regard to the conduct of this
young man but out of respect for the
mules forbids us, but sufficient to
add that if lie tries that trick here
again he will be fined and gwen a
public roast that he wont forget.

SEARCH RIVER
FRIENDS OF VIRGIL WHITE MAIN
TAIN HUNT FOR HIS
REMAINS.

Des Moines, June 81. =. The search
for the body of Virgil White the young
Des Moines attorney drowned Sunday
night in the Des Moines river, which
has continued unabated for two days
and night, was almost given up last
night. A few who faithfully kept up
the search had their efforts rewarded
last night by partial success The body
was hooked early this morning by the
night watchman at the Oak Park
mine. Scores of watchers who have
scanned every foot of the rivers sur
face from Flint valley to the Center
street dam, returned to their homes
early last night
The sentiment still remains that
Virgil White came to his death by
drowning and that the result was an
accident
Despite the reward Of 500, which
has been offered by former Congress
man Fred E. White, the father of the
young man, nearly all the workers
who were engaged in looking for the
body, have given up the task as 6
hopeless one, and Humane Officer Ed
Crawford, who has been in charge O.
the work, said last night that he be
lieved all had been done that could
be done and all that remained was tt
wait for the body to be given up b!
the river.
