The guide prescribes soaking and keeping pigs on a wet bed for hours, giving three tablespoons of Epsom salt in a cornmeal and water slop, then administering 10 grains of saltpeter two to three times daily. Check for sores between toes or on heels, wash with warm water and soap, and if sores are spongy and bluish apply nettle butter of antimony or spray with pulverized bluestone.

Peril in Catarrh and a Quaker Anecdote
A dismal catalog of catarrh dangers promises instant relief from Eclipse Catarrh Cure with a twenty five cent sample and one dollar full package. A testimonial from E T Moon of Lawrenceville Georgia praises the remedy noting prior failures and restored senses after use, urging sufferers to try the Eclipse product from Eclipse Medicine and Manufacturing Co. Atlanta. A Philadelphia Quaker anecdote follows about a meeting interrupted by loud talking, a woman correcting the speaker that the disturbance came from the men’s side, and the speaker approving the wit.
