Scarlet Fever ind Smstf-Pox Rmdy. 1 van ti : iue ioiiowmg clipping was handed to us by a friend: A correspondent of the Stock ton (Cul.) Herald writes us fol lows: "I herewith append a re cipe which has been used, to my knowledge, in hundreds of cases. It will prevent small-pox though the pittings arc filling. When Jenner discovered cow-pox iu England, the world of science whirled an avalanche of fame on his head, and when the most scientific school of medicine in the world, that of Paris, publish ed this recipe as a panacea for small-pox, it passed unheeded. It is as unfailing as fate. It is harmless when taken by a well person. It will also cure scarlet fever. Here is the recipe as 1 have used it, and cured my chil dren of scarlet fever; here it is as I have used it to cure small-pox; when learned physicians said the patient must die, it cured: Sul phate of zinc, one grain; fox-glove (digitalis,) one grain; half a tea spoonful of sugar. Mix with two table-spoonf ulls of water. When thoroughly mixed add four ounces of water. Take a spoonful every hour. Either disease will disap pear in twelve hours. For a child smaller doses, according to age. If counties would compel their physicians to use this there would be no need of pest-houses. If you value advice and experience use this for that terrible disease. CANT ALWAYS COLLECT BY LAW. A subscription to a fund to build a church cannot always be collected by law. At Carlisle, John H. Gardner subscribed $1000 to the erection of a new Lutheran church. He afterward refused to pay and suit was brought. It appears that Mr. Gardner made his subscription with the understanding that the new church would cost $45,000, without consent of the congrega tion or subscribers, and Mr. Gardner is, therefore, not liable, says J udge Biddle. to Your Home. 83 $19.95. l2 8 E.
