104 THOUGHTS ON HUNTING 



I have heard that the Ormskirk medicine is also 

 very good. I have given it to several people in 

 my neighbourhood, and, I believe, with success ; at 

 least I have not, as yet, heard anything to the 

 contrary. Though I mention these as the two most 

 favourite remedies, I recommend neither. Somer- 

 ville's advice, which I have already given, is what 

 I recommend to you : if properly attended to, it will 

 prevent the want of any remedy. 



P.S. — A Treatise on Canine Madness, written by 

 Dr. James, is worth your reading. You will find that 

 he prescribes the same remedy for the cure of 

 madness in dogs as I have mentioned here, but in 

 different quantities. I have, however, taken the 

 liberty of recommending the quantities above men- 

 tioned, as they have been known to succeed in my 

 neighbourhood, and as the efficacy of them has been 

 very frequently proved.
