lonne and Capt. Toilet In volume
which has Just been published It Is
entitled the Dog as an Aid to the
Sanitary Corrs
That dogs should be taught to seek
out the wounded on the battlefield is
no new idea The experiment was
tried with success at the time of the
Boer war and at the battle Of Cha
Ho In the conflict in the far east three
dogs sent out by the German Alliance

IN 1890, by order Of the German
war minister two dogs we're added to
the sanitary corps Of one 0f the crack
regiments. Since then clubs for the
training Of dogs in war time have been
formed in Dresden, Cologne, Coburg,
Aix-la-chapelle and Neuwied. Similar
societies have been organized In Hol-
land. Sweden and Italy. IN fact all Of
the European countries have turned
their attention to the subject at one
4 time or other except France
Dr. Bichelonne and Capt Toilet urge
the military authorities to repair this
omission There are many good
breeds Of dogs In France which would
take easily to the military training
It Is an undisputed fact, these au
thors say, that after an engagement
there are many wounded and dying
who are overlooked by the nurses and
litter carriers A case in point /:
quoted AT the battle Of Rezonville
Gravelotte In 1870 two injured soldiers
lay for three days in a ravine. The
ground had been gone over man,
times by the ambulance service AMI
yet they had not been found. In IL
stances like this the usefulness o
dogs as scouts is unquestioned.

A school Of big fish swan up Noyac

and investigated the antics Of some
bigger fish OF a variety unknown to
them, which were cutting straight

learned that the strange-looking fish
we're not sharks and that they swan
much faster than anything the big fish

When they got IN front Of one Of

them and left many mangled big fish
to float ashore and tell the story.
This explained Why one Of the tor

scALY ERUPTION ON BODY.

Doctors and Remedies Fruitless---
Suffered 10 pletely
Cured by Three Boxes of Cuticura.
"When l was about nine years old
small sores appeared on each of my
lower limbs. / scratched them with
brass pin and shortly afterward both
OF those limbs became so sore that l
could scarcely walk. When had
been suffering for about month the
sores began to heal, but small scaly
eruptions appeared where the sores
had been. From that time onward
was troubled by such severe itching
that, until / became accustomed to 1t,
l would scratch the sores until the
blood began to flow. This would stop
the itching for few days, but scaly
places would appear again and the
itching would accompany them. After
/ suffered about ten years l made a
renewed effort to effect a cure. The
eruptions by this time had appeared on
every part of my body except my face
and hands. The best doctors In my ma
tive country advised me to use arsenic
In small doses and a salye. l then
used to bathe the sores IN mixture
which gave almost intolerable pain. IN
addition / used other remedies, such
as iodine, sulphur, zinc salye, IS
Salve, Ointment, and In fact I
was continually giving some remedy
fair trial, never using less than one
or two boxes or bottles. All this was
fruitless. Finally my hair began to
fall out and / was rapidly becoming
bald. / used IS -, but 1t did no
good. A few months after, having used
almost everything else, l thought
would try Cuticura Ointment, having
previously used Cuticura Soap and be-
ing pleased with 1t. After using three
boxes l was completely cured, and my
hair was restored, after fourteen years
of suffering and an expenditure of at
least $50 or $50 in vainly endeavoring
to find cure. l shall be glad to write
to any one who may be interested In
my cure. b. Hiram Mattingly, ver-
