Your humble servant wants to beg
space and admittance to the columns
of the News just to say few words
in the rank and file with the News
correspondents. Here is a recipe that
| want to give Dofetchit. AS he eats
a heap of chickens perhaps he might
get a bone lodged in his wind pipe
and wants to remove it up or down.
Drill a hole in a large bullet, put
string through and put the bullet in
your mouth, swallow it, jerk the
string back. Do this three or four
times and / will guarantee the bone
removed. And if one of your children
happens to the misfortune of getting
bean or pea lodged in its nose, rut
your mouth to its mouth and blow
your breath in its mouth your best,
and watch the bean or pea fly out
If you should happen to get mote
in your eye, to remove the mote Just
rub the other eve and note the result.
We have disease, commonly
known as milk sick which has batf1ed
medical skill Milk sick is not known
to occur except in mineral districts,
and mostly at dry seasons OF the year,
when water is low. 1t is deadly pol
on to cattle and human beings using
the water and milk. Ye writer lives
within a mile of it, and just above
here, along the borders of Marion and
Sequatchie Counties, there has been
number of people and cattle died
from this mineral poison. Now, my
dear readers, if you should fall vic
tim to this dreadful disease the only
doctor who lives up here or anywhere
near here, who can cure milk sick
is Dr. P. G. Grayson, whose past re-
cord is such that you can be furnished
with many testimonials from this min
eral district, that he has controlled
and handled milk sick without gloves
Nearly entire families have died out
right by the milk sick, but if you
will send for Dr. Grayson before you
are past medical aid he will cure you.
He has milk sick poison bottled up on
exhibition at his Office and knows just
what the poisons are
