Treating "Doff Bites, "
An exchange says that a good
thing to do for a mad dog bite is to
fill the wound full of gunpowder
and touch it off. This meets snake
bites too. This U a heroic, remedy
but It Is said to be really efficacious.
An efficacious and aboriginal plan Is
to procure half a dozen younr live
fowls, cut the skin from tne side of
one, and put-the raw spot against
the bitten part. In a few minutes
take another fowl and use it in the
, same way. 4our win prooaoiy uir
the fifth will get giddy, but not die,
and the sixth may not be needed.
Such treatment for dog bites is
handier than and is as reliable as the
mad stone.

get a pension from the United

regular United States pension blanks
for them to fill out and return. The
game is ths: The Confederate sends
in his claim as requested on thje reg

barred by aw. ' -
