G.P. H., Hartford.— I have ft setter bitcU piippj' ten montlis 

 old, suffering from paralysis of hvT hind legs, caused by distem- 

 per. She is unable to stand at all on acpouut of tlie paralysis. No 

 running from the eyes or nose ; in fact, the distemper has troubled 

 her but little at any time, and T had supposed she had recovered 

 from the disease entirely, when this trouble appeared. Ti did not 

 conic on from e.\|)osure or over feeding-, as oat mi.al und milk has 

 been her princiii-il diet. Consideriog Uer condition sho lias con- 

 aideralilc strenjith and very good appetite. Ilave been giving 

 (luiuiueuud strychnine, and occasional use of bnileiy. Tlie pa- 

 ralysis hasbeen lasting- about two weelcswitfa a tendency of in- 

 creasing. Can anything be doue? Ans. Substitute one-quarter 

 to one-eighth of nox vomica extract for Btryehnino, and you are 

 doing all that can be done to advantage in such coses. 



F. P.I)., Jr., Maryland.— 1. Can you inform mo if dogs are sub- 

 ject to grav-el 'i I lost a fine English setter several weeks ago ; he 

 was only sick tvyo or three days. After death, the examination 

 showed that he had two large stones in his bladder, ond both it 

 and his kidneys had mortified and suppurated. I do not under- 

 stand how he could have been so atflioted. I have owned him 

 three years, and he has not been sick a day. Are dogs subject to 

 this, and is there any cure? 2. Please inform me of the most re- 

 liable party from whom to purchase a good, young setter. Ans. 

 1. Dogs are subject to gravel or stone, just as innn is, and from 

 similar causes. The annoyance can be allayed, but the tbanee of 

 a radical cure is very slight. Tou have neglected to state the 

 si-ise of the stones ; let us hear from you on this point. 3. We can- 

 not recommend any special dog miiu. Wo call your aitention to 

 our kennel ad vertisemeuta . 



JfODCs.— Turpentine is a good vermifuge, but apt to inflame the 

 kidneys. To prevent this an emulsion should be formed by mix- 

 ing it with yolk of egg and olive oil ; the dose for a medium sized 

 dog isa teaspoonful. Venice turpentine is a milder remedy. It 

 mav be given in doses of a drachm, made into pillswith flour or 

 with areea nut powder freshly grated. The doBO of nut is two 

 grains to every pound weight of the dog, but no dog should lie 

 given more than two drachms. A strong and mature dog should 

 be kept without food for twenty-four hours before giving a 

 vermifuge. Give a tablespoonful of olive oil the evening before 

 giving the vcrmitufio ; and tlie worm medicine should always be 

 followed by a purgative a few hours later. In the case of tape- 

 worm the remedy t.r remedies selected must be persevered with 

 until the head of the worm is expelled, and in all cases the worms 

 and nil discharged fseces should be either burned or mixed with 

 some powerful disinfectant and deeply buried, to prevent propa- 

 gation of the parasites by theli' ova. 



PUBLISHERS' DEPARTMENT. 



A Strac-ESTtox TO Summer Toukists.— A change of climate lis 

 ataU times more or less dangerous. There are elemeutsln a new 

 atmosphere which are injuriou?. especially when the ss'stem is 

 exhausted by care and overwork, ami which should be guarded 

 ag-ainst. jiftcr careful observation we have come to the conclu- 

 sion that ■SVarnersSafe Kidneyand Liver Cure is the best pre- 

 ventive for atmospheric evils, and that it will restore health and 

 vigor sooner than any remodywhich has ever been discovered.
