CURE FOR THE BITE OF A MAD DOG.
Take of elecampane root 1½ ounces, cut it fine or pulverize if you can, then boil it in one pint of new milk down to a quarter of a pint. Take this in the morning fasting, and eat no food till 4 o’clock in the afternoon. It should be taken every other morning—the two last doses must weigh 2 ounces each. This may be used several times a day.
