The Mystery

which 1t has attained has proven it to

Few accidents are more terrifying to

supposed to be mad, and there are few
conditions in which prompt and intelli-

Although nearly all warm blooded
animals are susceptible to rabies. it is
most commonly seen in dogs. There
are two fornis-tlle furious and the

period of melancholy or depression the
animal becomes restless; and irritable,
with a tendency to run away and snap

was at stake. He told Webster the
particulars and asked what he would
charge to conduct the case.

numerous cases of stomach trouble,

sick, why, Of course. take the proper
medicines-plain common vegetable
treatment, which will not shatter the
nerves or ruin the stomach"
When requested for such a prescrip-
ton for the cure of rheumatism and
kidney trouble the answer was:
You must make the kidneys do their
work; they are the filters OF the
blood. They must be made to strain
out of the blood the waste matter and
acids that cause rheumatism; the
