Finn Boy Escapes Jail Sentence.


It may be true that there is moth,

Howard's daily experience in the mu,
nicipal court of Rockland brings up
lots Of things that are new to him.
Among the offenders who faced him
the other day was Finn boy who had
been arrested for shooting q raccoop
out Of season. The boy did not deny
the act, but asked the court to hear
his defense, which he read from manu-,
script prepared by himself. It was an
ingenious setting forth of the circum,
stances which led to the coon's de-
struction-a tale Of how the glarlna
eyes Of strange animal had fright
ened belated pedestrians in a West

woman had impIored him to ''get g

GO BACK TO OLD REMEDIES
War Brings a Return to Medicines
Used In the Days Of Our
Grandfathers.

Physicians have been jumping from
one drug or chemical to another ever
since Lister found way to check or
prevent the infection Of wounds. Doc
tors have tried friars balsam, carbolic
acid, iodoform and dozens Of other
antiseptics, some of them very costly,
and now seem to have gone back to
old fashioned household dressings Of
past years and even past centuries.
On the battlehelds of Europe sugar,
salt, tincture of Iodine and common
garlic have superseded drugs and
chemicals with high sounding names,
the New York Commercial states. SUI
gar is used as a dressing for wounds
already infected. The British govern
ment has found that wounded men on
ships whose injuries have been
washed with common sea water make
better recoveries than those treated
in field hospitals, the conclusion being
that the waters of the ocean are an
ideal antiseptic. Tincture of iodine,
preparation as old as the hills, is the
favorite protection against lockjaw;
and so it goes.
OF all these reversions to grand
mothers specifics, however, the dis
covery that garlic is almost a cureall
is the most striking. Doctors who
prescribe and use only the most costly
and new-fangled preparations inn
ported from Germany will have to
give respectful attention to garlic, for
its efficacy is vouched for by the Lon
don Lancet on the testimony Of two
eminent London surgeons. Garlic ap-
piled to a wound stops the infection
and heals quickly, whereas modern
antiseptics used in fashionable prac-
tice injure the tissues. Garlic has
been tested thoroughly at the Pad
dington infrmary in London, as well |
as in field hospitals in France.
The story Of the rediscovery Of gar
lie possesses human interest. An old |
French peasant woman was found to
have dressed tho sores and wounds Of |
soldiers in the wa zone with remark
able results. An army surgeon inVes-
tigated and garlic is sold by the ton
where It was formerly sold by the
ounce in England chemists shops.
Garlic Juice diluted with three or four
parts of distilled water seems to be
the standard dressing.
Garlic is also found to be effective
IN preventing tuberculosis and in cur.
ing it in its early stages. The com
mon onion, cousin of the Glove of gar.
lie, IS good for colds. Hindus haye
used plasters Of garlic for ages. Just
when spectators have cornered the
drug and chemical market, army doc,
tors find substitutes in things that are
cheap and plentiful.

obviating this danger. This has now
