- - Yrr t 'S 13 O What In UomcofKilky V 1'AUT III. Ii has also beeu found that the really curative action of a drug is developed only by the process of attenuation or dilution. When Hahnemann first discovered the Law of Similars (1790), he uBed the xrdiuary dose. He found, however, that the first effect was an exacerba tion (getting worse) of the symp toms, after which followed the reaction and cure. It occurred to him to reduce the dose, and in 60 doing found that the cure followed the more rapidly. Thus he gradu ally arrived at the system of attenu ation called Poteutization, which is as follows: One part of the drug with 99 parts of alcohol is the first potency; oue part of the first po tency with 99 parts of alcohol is the second potency, &c. The first po tency contains one-hundredth of the drug, the second contains one hun dredth of one-hundredth one ten- ;.V0 thousanth. This process has been 4 carried as high as the 30th potency, and some physicians nse as high as the 200th and even 1,000,000th. This is called theccnlesimal scale. Amer- -ican physicians use mostly the deci mal, takingalways one-tenth. At first sight this looks absurd, but this docs not make it so. A priori reasoning can decide abso lutely nothing in regard to his; experience alono can -decide. A Homeopath .docs not use an infini- tcsimal dose because he has a nat ural preferenco for it, but simply and solely because he finds it works better. Far from being naturally inclined to inGnitesimals, every Homeopath has come to use tho higher potencies only with great reluctance and doubt, which was only gradually' removed by the con tinuous and marvelous affects wit nessed from them. Just as wo are all by nature sinners, so we are by nature believers in brute force and vulgar bigness, as compared with dynamic force. A Jittlo child pre fers the silver quarter to tho gold dollar, because bigger. It is childish, ignorant and vulgar to ridicule the infinitesimal dose. No sane roan can test the small dose, without be ing perfectly astonished, if adminis- tered strictly according to the Law of Similars. Bye and bye I will give a few examples from my own observation. I will suggest two 3 ' reasons why small doses, if admin istered in strict harmony with the Homeopathic law, are efficient. First, because they are exactly suit- Ti'v'Tv ' -.. r-i ...r:'' v.. jnc esaucu suscepuuuuy oi J.ho diseased partj and secondly. becanso they act directly Qnthe part jvhich requires to be influenced, and jiot on other parts. Their force is pot wasted., " In order to know what the effect (pathogenetic) of any drug may be, it must be tried on a healthy person. vHafaRggjniuiuBJelC ..pnnrcfl,. remedies on himself. Others fol thc lowed him, until "a present number, of proved drugs has reached over- a. thousan rTie results of these experiments called "provings" are recorded, and form the "Materia Medica, used by Homeopaths. And not only the crude effect of a drug is noticed, but cverv shade so as to get a complete drug picture. TheNJ "picture" of a 6iugle drug fills some times a dozen pages in the Materia! Mcdica. Everythingis noticed the exact location of the pains, the exact timo of day when worse or better, ftio inti7iMff trViori rrstn stfntt the aee. temperament. conTBTCxion. lex, &c, of the "power." And in the selection of a drug for a diseased; 3 condition, all this must be takenj into cousidcration. How different is all this from the crude, contradic tory, vulgar, general -patching -up methods of the antediluvians. When you try your medicines on the sick; you never know what is the effect of the "mixture," and what the disease. How does a Homeopath then pro ceed in a case of sickness? His first L--usincs8 is, to get as complete a if "picture" as possible ot tne disease, not ouly of the most fflarinsr svmn- KModYb, but of all the finer shades,; 'forgetting thjjental phenomena. tf He rfTJally nothing to tlowhlf the If name of the disease nature knows no names. Names of diseases are only arbitrary conveniences, and very often mislead. After getting into his memory, or on paper, a lpleto picture of the affection, he ij- proceeds to select that drug from his Ijjuaiuria iucuiui, vviucu currcspunus most perfectly to the disease, i. e., which has the most similar symp toms. "When he finds that, he gives it in infinitesimal dose, so as to get the reactionary effect, which is the opposite of the symptoms recorded and also the opposite of the symp toms in the patient This will care most beautifully. (To be continued.) The Other Side Again. l Jan. .cditok; h uvu l iuuk up my y pen to present some features of "the other side ' of the question of sheep husbandry I did not expect te call such giants (of writers) as "Farmer" and "Dot" into the field to fight me, but I am not so easily scared after i all. "Farmer" don't seem to see the t fnn in the $9.99 : perhaps he did not I have his "specs" at hand when he A H TTm (lilntrii if T wraa "tliinV. y ing bo poorly of sheep as I professed I would part with them speedily at .market rates, that those tv1ioth he S'-ioks upon as infatuated might have & j chance to .buy their experience also. l ' ' ' Now, friend "Farmer," that wo'd never do. I consider you too honest a man to sell to your neighbors any thing that you yourself think poorly of, even below market price, but rather hold it so high that your neighbor must say : " Hands off I Can't reach it." Thus yon will save your neighbor tho -trou bio, loss and annoyance of buying his experience. Ah I Mr. "Dot" and "Firmer" that experience is with some men a pretty costly one. Last ytfar your writer was informed that in a rain storm a Mr. Brown somewhere near Stearns' Prairie lost a great number of sheep and lambs, some of them being drowned- -in-a- slongli, some having been shot by some bad men, and your writer also lost a number of heads in that storm, and he lost by wolves, by dogs, by sickness, in lambing, etc. Friends, "Farmer" and "Dot," both seem to think that Nebraska is the special Eldorado for sheep men, but Nebraska has, for instance, one great drawback in its dog law. Now, Mr. Editor, any man, woman, boy or girl can keep as mauy dogs as he or she pleases, pro vided he or she pays a tax of $1 for a male or $2 for a female. And where does this money go? to the school fund. A good object, no one can deny, but In this case undoubt edly wrongly benefited. Dogs are surely not "DotV or such warm friends of sheep as my friend "Dot," but they are their enemies, destroy ing annually millions' worth of sheep, and their owners are the loosers. "We know that farmers, especially in a new country where wolves, foxes, skunks and other "varmint" abound, need a good dog, aud we have no fault to find with the tax collected from their owners, but we think that some other states have acted more wisely aud justly by providing that the dog tax is ap plied to indemnify sheep owners for losses sustained by the depreda tions of dogs upon sheep. But hero we are. Anybody's and everybody's and nobody's dogs can come and destroy my whole flock of sheep and ray dog lax goes to educate the boys and girls of Tom, Dick and Harry, who each having about twenty elev en children, pride themselves that they benefit the whole country by their drawing a little of the state school fund. "Dot" and friend "Farmer," look at this! Mr. Heinrich's big lambs, Mr. Editor, your writer has seen, but heavy as they are, they don't weigh enough to turn the scales against some of the mighty objec tions to sheep raising, and, friend "Fanner" himself, tall and clear headed as I suppose him to be, can not deny that some wholesome truths were stated by Breeder. That Sheep Cemtrorerwjr. Editor Journal : It seems strango that my innocent little lambs should have helped to cause such a flourish of quills, but since "the pen is mightier than the sword," and since in this war, thus far, nobody has been hurt, I am glad to see facts brought to light that may be profit able to some of us. "Dot" and "Farmer" are both down on "Breed er," who, it would seem, wrote more for fan than for anything else, or perhaps his object was to provoke a little controversy and thus have light thrown on the question, or perhaps he did not feel well at the time of writing, as "Dot" suggests, or he may have been provoked by those most " troublesome of all do mestic animals." As for me, I will, in spite of that "doleful homilie," trudge on with our sheep a little longer, without howover, depending entirely and exclusively on them. Our motto is "mixed farming and mixed stock raising." One kind of produce may fail one year, then the other kinds will keep a man along; so one kind of stock may not do well one year, and some other kind may make up for the loss. As we never know beforehand which part of our work a kind Providence will bless, I deotn it best to divide my attention to several branches of hus bandry. Others may do better by concentrating their minds, strength, efforts upon one thing, and as they generally attain to more proficiency in that one branch that way may bo the best for them. We all like the Journal in general, and are somo what uncommonly interested in the friendly controversy of "Dot," "Farmer" and "Breeder." Yours respectfully, A. Henrich. Another WeBderfal IarcmtleH. The papers tell of a new invention of a practical character, which has been made by E. A. Cowper, the well-known English mechanical en gineer. It is a real telegraphic writing machine. The writer, In London, moves hia pen, and simul taneously at Brighton another pen is moved as though by a phantom hand, in precisely similar curves and writing. The writer writes in Lon don, the ink marks in Brigton. Those who have seen the instrument work, say it is a marvel quite as startling as those of the telephone. The pen at receiving point has all the appearance of being guided by a spirit-hand. A fac Bimilo of the writing-produced by this telegraph ic writing machine shows that the words are formed without any lift ing of the pen, and perfectly legible. No matterhow much a candidate itches for office, he never likes to be scratched, A Fetv Useful Kales. It is easy, of course, to keep your husband's love. In tho first place, never agreo with him. When at homer 'Keep yourself in a "bluo" state. Take from him all tho money he can spare, and even more. Flirt with every man you meet, If ho the man gives you a chance. At the same time, be frantically jealous of him. Sntib him and tyrranize over him in the presence of his bachelor friends before whom he is solicitous of appearing as the most -enviable man in existence, and to whom he is particularly anxious to rehearse the delights of Benedic dom. The mortification he will feel at the frustration of bis laudable desire will most assuredly produce a reaction in your favor. Should all other means seem likely to fail, be come violently attached to your dear parents, and if they reside in a different from that in which you live spend all the time you possibly can with them, making life dismal while you are at home with moans because you can't see your dear parents every day. Should your husband manifest any dissatisfaction with this, open a private deluge at once and tell him that you never knew.'be fore, that you had married a brute. By using all these means, your object will soon bo accomplished. The Christian 1.1 le. The religion ef the moralist is of the worldraud so differs from -that of the Pharisee. It is also in the world, and so differs from that of the monk. The Pharisee says, "I will hold tho two lives entirely sep arate." The monk says, " I will perform the duties of the religious life alone." The moralist sayB, "I will perform those of the daily life alone." The Christian says, "While the religious life and the worldly life do not exclude each other, the most important is the religious life; and it is only rightly conducted when it elevates the conduct of the daily life ; when with the apostle it can say, "The life that I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God." He whose life is thus conducted lives his daily life by his religious life. The latter guides the former. His faith determines his daily walk. His Christianity fur nishes both the purpose and conduct of his whole course of action. John De Witt, D. D. Croup. As this is a very dangerous and rapid disease the best medical aid should be procured as soon as prac ticable. In the mean-time the most strenuous efforts should be made to arreBt the progress of the disease. Bathe the feet in hot water, and put draughts on the feet, with mustard oh them. Simmer onion with lard and apply to the throat. A piece of linen or cotton soaked in lard or sweet oil, sprinkled over with Scotch snuff and applied where the distress is greatest, will often afford relief. Turpentine mixed with hot water, a flannel cloth dipped in it and applied to the throat, and the hands and feet rubbed with it, is a good remedy for this distressing complaint. Hive syrup, taken in ternally, or a syrup made of sliced onions aud white sugar, will often be found effectual in arresting the progress of the disease. If your cows' teats are 6oro from any cause, wash them clean with warm water, and then apply glycer ine while they are moist. Two or three applications will cure the worst cases aud render the teats soft and pliable. For caked bag, use fresh lard as hot as you can handle it. Apply with a rag or brush, and thoroughlj rub in with the hand. It never fails to effect a cure in a fe.w days. The masses the lapsed masses some call them seem now to have hardly any awe of the Bible at all, and they freely question its truth ; and many of the most successful, en ergetic, and ingenious of our artizan class, who are steady and wise, are found either of themselves rejecting the Bible altogether, or following teachers who tell them frankly that it is an exploded superstition. AT. Arnold. An Iowa man, whose well had caved in, contrived to make the authorities suspect that he had mur dered a man and put his body at the bottom of the well, and he took things easy at the jail while they dug his well out for him, and further more talks of suing the town for false imprisonment. Nature has placed mankind under tho government of two sovereign masters pain and pleasure. It is for them alono to point out what we ought to do. On the one hand the standard of right and wrong ; on the other the chain of causes aud effects are fastened to their throne. Ben thavi. Teaching men morals is as thongh I had a clock that would not go, and I turned round one of the cog wheels. But faith takes the key and winds np the mainspring, and the whole thing runs on readily. There were " blind leaders of the blind" in Judea eighteen hundred years ago, and there are blind lead ers of the blind in.our time. C. H. Briyham. Nebraska. Another evidenco of tho richness of the soil of Nebraska is found in the fact of the number and great growth of the native grasses, which. 1 afford the very best pasturage from early spring until the month, of No vember. Those who have investi gated the subject of the native grasses claim no fewer than one hundred and fifty species. Among other varieties the blue-joint grows everywhere in the State except on the low bottom lands. In ordinary seasons, and under favorable condi tions its growth is from two and a half to four feet, and often on culti vated grounds it will grow to the height of seven and ten feet. On the up-lands, blue-joint grows in great abundance and is greatly relished by cattle. Buffalo grass now in the greatest quantity is found in the western half of the State. This, it is claimed, disappears before cultiva tion, but it is nature's proyision of food for grain-eating animals during winter, when the animals are com pelled to remain on the prairie, as it retains its nutriment all the year round. Among feed grasses that grow abundantly in the State are several varieties of bunch grass ; and in the low lands a native blue-grass, and what is known as the spangle top, which makes an excellent qual ity of hay. It was a question among the first Bettlers of Nebraska whether fruit could be successfully grown in the State or not, but finding the wild fruits, such aB plums, grapes, and gooseberries growing in abundance; it was thought that apple orchards might be cultivated with success. So reasoning, the earlier settlers in the easteru part of the State planted their orchards and their first plant ings failed, but they persevered and the result has been a complete suc cess. Nebraska fruits now comparo favorably with the best produced in other states. In 1871 Nebraska had on exhibition at Richmond, Va., one hundred and forty-six varieties of apples, filleen of peaches, thirteen of pears, one of plums, and one of grapes, and was awarded the first premium for the best collection of fruit among all the States. The fruits of Nebraska have been exhib ited at Boston, Chicago and at the International Exhibition in 1870, the judges awarding prizes for eight varieties of pears, large, smooth and well colored, and for two hundred and sixty-three varieties of apples, the latter prize being for tho unusu ally large number of finely grown varieties. Instead of orchards flour ishing only in the eastern part of the State and near the Missouri river, thoy do well away out on the prairie wherever nature's conditions of growing fruit are observed. The broken-hearted but vengeful woman who detects her faithless husband in hugging the pretty servant-girl, now takes pains to fill the oil-can with a cheap article of ker osene, and then, before going to bed, wets down the kindlings and leaves the can standing right beside the kitchen stoye.
