Hew He Cared •> Indiana Hooeler eg
the Ague.
From the Fort Wayne Sentinel.]
The Sentinel office was favored
yesterday afternoon with a call from
Dr. 8. B. Doggett, an eminent pro
fessional gentleman now sojourning
in our midst. The doctor is a curi
osity in his way. His modes of treat
ment are new and novel. His
methods of practice are wholly
original with nimself. In short, he
is the phenomenon of the nineteenth
century. The doctor came to this
city during the Northern Indiana
Fair, and established himself in our
midst. He sojourned for a time at
the Central Hotel, where his practice
assumed mammoth proportions.
The doctor’s signs were unique speci
mens of high art. He cut out some
of 8. Clay Todd’s pictures, and also
got some pictures from a book pub
lished by Kennedy, owner of the
“Medical Discovery,” and from an
other issued by the “Surgical Insti
tute” of Indianapolis, and imsted
them on his signs. Dr. Doggett
makes a specialty of ague. He
says that physicians who use
quinine for ague really in
troduce deadly poison into the sys
tem of their patients. Dr. Doggett,
doesn’t poison those whom ho treats,
but he robs them, which is about
equivalent. A good natured fellow
from the country, who tried his
treatment for the ague, thus de
scribed it to our reporter: “The first
time I paid him a dollar. He gave
me a bottle of queer looking stuff,
which he said was fluid electricity. I
was to take that as soon as the ague
left me (which he said would be at
once), the rest of tho electricitry
would congeal and make a first rate
article of hair-oil. I sat down in his
room and he produced from his boot
leg two drum sticks, with which he
played a tune on the table, for the
purpose, as he said, of drumming the
ague out of me. Then he produced
a short stick, with a rag wound about
the end of it, to whioh he attached a
sponge. Upon this sponge he drop
ped some solution and immediately
began to pound me over the head
and about the body very vigorously.
Then he sent me for a bottle of the
best gin, which I got. Soon after he
sent me after four red corn-cobs.
While I was gone he used the gin aud
filled the bottle with water. I found
one red ’ corncob and went back.
Then I sat down and he made a
cross out of the drum sticks which he
S laced at my feet. He rubbed my
ead and body with the corncob,
and told me that the ague had all
left me and gone into the corn
cob, and that if I buried the corncob
in the ground I would never have
any more trouble with the ague.”
“Did you bury the corncob?” asked
our reporter.
“Yes,” said Doggett’s victim, “but
I’ve had the ague ever since, and if I
see the doetor again, by the Jehosa
phat I’ll lick h—l out of him or get
mv dollar back.”
It is rather strange that in an en
lightened and intelligent community
a crazy ignoramus like this Doggett
can victimize people in the manner
above described, but such is the fact.
He has been in the city several weeks,
and, we are creditably informed, has
gathered in numerous dollars from
numerous and unsuspecting persons
who have applied to him to cure their
ague or headaches. Doggett is really
demented, and should be looked after
by the authorities. He makes pro
tensions to being a fortune-teller as
well as a doctor, and, we understand,
threatens to address a Sunday-school
to-morrow.

This incomparable preparation for the Hair Is
commended to the public on its own merits.
It prevents the Hair from falling off, producing
a rapid and healthy growth; eradicates scurf and
dandruff, and cures diseases of the scalp. Try it
and judge for yourself.
[From Rev. E. T. Baird, Heo’y of Publication of
Presbyterian Church South.]
Richmond. July 27,1874.
The Xanthine is the only hair dressing I have
ever used which has removed the dandruff from
the scalp and made my hair soft and pliable. It
lias also restored my hair to its natural color; and
by occasionally using it as a hair dressing, I have
no doubt it will preserve the color.

Xanthine Cos., Richmond, Va.:
I have used the. Xanthine now for three years,
snd have induced others to buy it, and have nev
er known it to fail in accomplishing all you
claim for it. It is an excellent tonic, a pleasant
dressing, removing and preventing dandruff and
all unpleasant itching, promotinguil preserving
the natural growth and color of the hair, and ren
dering it glossy and pliable. I confidently,
cheerfully, knowingly recommend it.

The following is an extract from a description, published ih the New York Tribune , by the wel
known agriculturist, Solon Robinson:
All the farmers were of the “well to do” sort, aud some of them, who have turned their attention
to fruits and market gardening, have grown rich. The soil is loam, varying from sandy to clayey,
ana surface gently undulating, intersected with small streams and occasional wot meadows, la
which deposits oi peat or muck are stored, sufficient to fertilize the whole upland surface, alter it
las been exhausted of its natural fertility.
It is certainly one of the most extensive fertile tracts, in an almost level position, and suitabis
condition for pleasant farming, that we know of this side of the Western prairies. We found corns
of the oldest farms apparently just as profitably productive as when first cleared of forest fifty or a
hundred years ago.
The geologist would soon discover the cause of this continued fertility. The whole country is n
marino deposit, and all through the soil we found evidences of calcareous substances, generally in
the form of indurated calcareous marl, showing many distinct forms of ancient shells, oi jho tertia
ry formation; and this marly substance is scattered all through the soil, in a very comminuted
jorm, and in the exact condition most easily assimilated by such plants as the farmer desires to
ultivate.
