My (laughter suffered for years with Female Disease and had the best medical attention
without relief. I was persuaded to let her try ono bottle of Jirtulfield’s Female Regula¬

its cost was 50 dollars per Dottle. It cured my daughter sound and well after all other reme¬

Canine Ferocity Conquered.
A good method of conquering dogs
Was exemplified in the presence of a
correspondent, who tells the story as
follows:
“While staying at a country house,
the conveisation turned on the ferocity
of a dog, half bull-dog, half mastiff,
that was chained up in the yard. A
small, delicate-looking man, who was
one of the guests, 6miled contemptu¬
ously at our host’s description of the
hound’s savageness, and offered to bet
that lie would go down to the kennel
and take a bone from under his nose.
The bet was taken and wo all ad¬
journed to the court-yard to witness
the feat. The small man, who had
vanished for a moment, reappeared,
and strolled up to the kennel with his
right arm outstretched.
“The dog rushed at him with open
mouth, then stopped, turned tail and
slunk into his hutch. The man fol¬
lowed, put his hand inside, pulled the
dog out by the collar, and then, after
permitting it to crawl back again,
cooly took up the bone it had been juij
enjoying, and throw it away witlioift
any protest on the part of the animal.”
The secret of his success was that he
had rubbed his hand with a solution of
ammonia. A dog cannot bite without
drawing in its breath, and the inhala.
tion of this pungent odor was too much
for it. Spirits of camphor, eau de
cologne and other powerful perfumes
of the kind, are laid to be almost us
effective.
