Only a little while we trouble or please our friends, Only a little while we seek our selfish ends. Only a little while we struggle, and strive and fail, Only a little while we buffet against the gale. Only a little while we worry and fuss and fret, Only a little while we grumble at what we get.

A dispatch from Newcastle, Ind., announcing the death of a Mr. Henry Bundy, of that place, adds: “He was the owner of the celebrat ed ‘Bundy Madstone,’ which has brought hundreds of persons afflicted with various forms of infection to this city for treatment. Mr. Bundy always kept it about his person, or in a safety deposit vault in a local bank.” This relates to a common supersti tion which has existed for a long time and will probably continue to exist much longer. The so-called madstone is a calcerous or stony formation pop ularly believed to have the power of averting hydrophobia by absorbing the poison when applied to the wound. The popular belief is that it possesses a specific affinity for hydrophobic virus; that when applied to the bitten place it adheres until the poison is absorbed, and then drops off, when, if placed in warm milk or water, it gives out the poison as a greenish yellow scum. If any such stone exists, or ever has existed, it differs fundamentally from all other stones in the alleged quality of possessing a specific attraction for a particular kind of poison. As this alleged quality is entirely foreign to all natural stones, those who possess what they call madstones ascribe a mysterious origin to them, as having b,een found in the stomach of some animal, in the head of a snake, etc. The Bundy madstone is said to have been found in the stomach of a wild deer and to have been a valued pos session of the Bundy family for more than a hundred years, and to have saved a great many persons from hy drophobia. It is said the last owner of OXIDINE. A Chill Cure in Every Bottle.

Popular traditions and folklore theo ries are hard to put down, but as a matter of fact the so-called madstone has no recognition whatever in science. A publication of the American Philo sophical Society of 1889 says: “Among the various individuals in Pennsylvania who profess ability in exorcisms and charms, we occasion ally find one who is reputed to pos sess a madstone. These pebbles are of various sizes, and appear to have been selected on account of some pe culiarity of color or form. A speci men which had a high reputation in the state from which it had been brought was described by the present writer as consisting of a worn piece of white feldspar and possessing none of the properties of absorption attri buted to it.” Scientists can classify all the stones alleged to be madstones, but no scien tist has ever given the slightest cred ence to the qualities claimed for them. Sir Walter Scott, in “The Talisman,” gave his indorsement of a certain al leged madstones but the Wizard of the North was far from being a scientist, and on this case his assertions of vir tue in the alleged madstone were so in credible as to be ridiculous. But ev erything went with Sir Walter when he was writing a story. That is right, but facts and fiction are still essential ly different, and the fact remains that the so-called madstone has no recog nition in science, nor is there any well authenticated case of such a stone hav ing shown the qualities claimed for it by its owners. Such claims are sup ported only by chimney corner tradi tion and common credulity.—lndianap olis News. OXIDINE. A Chill Cure in Every Bottle.
