Give small doses of Glauber or Epsom salts, to 

 which may be added a little bicarbonate of soda, 

 from the start, in order to prevent constipation and 

 its evil results, but should diarrhoea become too 

 great, you should overcome this by giving- drinks 

 made from boiled starch or rice, to which may be 

 added one ounce of laudanum, every three or four 

 hours. When fever is observed to be rising rapidly 

 give two or three doses of quinine in i/4-dram cap- 

 sules, or ^4 dram of antimony every three or four 

 hours. This will reduce the high fever. If depres- 

 sion is great after quinine or antimony is given, 

 fluid extract of aconite may be given in doses of 

 ten to twenty drops every three or four hours. In 

 complication of the lungs give ten to twenty drops 

 of fluid extract of digitalis every four hours. The 

 best way to administer medicines in small doses is 

 with a small syringe, placed in the side of the 

 mouth and thrown on the tongue. If the appetite 

 remains, give moderate quantities of good hay and 

 laxative foods, such as oats, bran mashes, etc.

Gentlemen;— The Curine and Hoofine ordered from 

 you some time ago, duly to hand, and the applica- 

 tion of the same has proven all you claim for their 

 separate curatives, and I cheerfully recommend 

 them to owners and drivers of horses of all kinds. 

 There are a number of trainers at our track, and 

 Curine and Hoofine are to be found in all their sta- 

 bles, which fact talks for itself. 



Yours very truly, W. S. STEELE, 



Secretary of Johnstown Driving Park.
