HOT ONIONS FoR PNEUMONIA.
Dread Disease Robbed Of Its Terrors
by Simple Remedy.

Owing to the prevalence of pneu-
monia and the great mortality which
attends its ravages during the winter
and spring. several boards of health
in northern New Jersey have been TAX
ing measures to protect the citizens OF
their towns from the disease. The
health board of Washington, N. j.. has
published remedy which is said to
be sure cure for pneumonia. and
other health boards are looking into
the matter with view of having the
same thing published for the good of
the general public. This is the pub
LEGATION as It has appeared in the pa
pers of Washington:
Take six or ten onions, according
to size, and chop fine. put in a large
spider over a hot fire, then add the
same quantity of rye meal and vine
gar enough to form thick paste. In
the meanwhile stir 1t thoroughly. let
ting It simmer five or ten minutes
Then put in cotton bag large enough
to cover the lungs and apply to chest
as hot as patient can bear. In about
ten minutes apply another. and thus
continue by relocating the poultices,
and in few hours the patient will be
out of danger. This simple remedy
has never failed to cure this too-often
fatal malady. Usually three or four
applications will be suffic ient. but con-
time always until the perspiration
starts freely from the chest. This rem
edy was formulated many years ago
by one of the best physicians New
England has ever known, who never
lost patient by the disease. and won
his renown by simple remedies

Jacob Hope. the famous pet stock

though the man pleaded with 1t nearly

Then, enraged, he snatched up the
obstinate parrot, ran with 1t to the
