The wonderful and unparalleled success that I have obtained, has caused a hungry horde of imitators to spring up, putting up their preparations in packages that look as near like mine as they dare to. They claim it is the " same thing as Daniels' " ; " about the same as Daniels'," etc. Beware of all such, however smooth their tongues or loud their voices ; they one and all try to build themselves up by my reputation, and to obtain your money by false pretence. No goods are the "same as Daniels'," and none are genuine without the portrait. Herewith I show a cut of my office and laboratory building, No. 55 Portland Street, where I shall at all times be pleased to meet all horsemen, whether my patrons or not. VETERINARY MEDICINES. INTRODUCTION. I issue this little work in response to an almost universal demand from my patrons, all over the country, for more explicit instructions than it is possible to give on my labels, for using my veterinary MEDICINES, in the great variety of diseases for which they are used. I do not present it as a general treatise on veterinary practice, or a work that will make any one perfect in treating even one disease ; but to assist my friends and patrons in a measure to ascertain and diagnose the diseases to which my medicines are applicable, the most reason- able and sensible method of nursing the same, and the proper amount of medicine required. I have avoided all long words and technicalities as far as possible, intending it for the use of non-professional readers, of which the great majority are far removed from the vicinity of a good veterinary, and are largely dependent on their own judgment in deter- minating the disease, and upon the few more common drugs for treating the same. My medicines are the result of long and careful research and experi- ment in a line not investigated by the ordinary veterinarian. The ingredients used in their preparation are of the highest grade that money will buy, or it is possible to obtain, being mostly imported by myself. They are not hitherto unknown, but the uses to which I put them are new, and a great departure from the practice laid down in medical works. To the purity and freshness of the drugs, the unvary- ing uniformity of my preparations, and coiiunon-seiise nursing, I attribute to a great degree, my wonderful success. To those to whom these medicines are yet unknown, I wish to say a word : These medicines are w^hat you have long needed ; they are always reliable, are perfectly safe, will do all I claim for them ; their use will save you money ; and while I live they will never be adulterated or their manu- facture cheapened. PREJUDICE. Many are opposed to using veterinary medicines on themselves, or family, wrongly thinking that such medicines are crude, much stronger, and unclean. I beg to assure all such that all preparations bearing my name are compounded from the very purest and most costly drugs, are perfectly clean and safe to use. The only difference between " Horse " medicine and that for the human family is the size of dose, the horse usually requiring from eight to eleven times as large a dose as a man. DR. A. C.

VETERINARY MEDICINES. DR. DANIELS' Every horse owner dreads that most dangerous disease, COLIC, and, although having at hand the best remedy he knows, still wishes for a certain cure. I now offer a remedy AT 0NCE CERTAIN TO CURE AND HARMLESS IN ITS EFFECTS, as well as being cheaper and more convenient to administer. MY WARRANT. Five to ten cents' worth will in from ten to fifty minutes cure any case of Colic, either Spasmodic or Flatulent, or I will refund your money. Put up, two bottles in a case ; Nos. i and 2, with glass syringe which takes up just a dose {-j^o drops), which is instantly placed on the tongue. It is worth 100 dollars a package, as it never fails, and one pack- age will cure eight to twelve cases, and is so simple that a child can give it to a horse. Is perfectly safe, as it never makes the horse sick, and will NEVER FAIL. Colic is regarded by veterinarians, as by far the most dangerous of the non-contagious diseases, that the horse is heir to ; and, in fact, the mortality from this cause alone is probably greater than from all other non-contagious diseases combined. It is known among stockmen and veterinarians in different parts of the world by many and various names, such as bellyache, inflammation, wind, bots, bloat, stoppage of water, spasms, etc. The educated veterinarian recognizes but two kinds — the spasmodic and flatulent. Statistics of live-stock insurance companies show that where one horse is burned to death by fire, twenty-seven die from colic. How inconsistent and unbusiness-like it is to insure your stock against fire, at great expense, and not be prepared to ward off and cure this monster, which is twenty-seven times more fatal, to say noth- ing of the slight attacks which are of e very-day occurrence, when it can be done at such a trifling cost. There has been handed down to us from the most remote antiquity many infallible recipes for curing colic, a large portion of them so foolish and ridiculous as would seem to be unworthy of notice from any one of common sense. In most cases of colic, it is soon noised about that the horse is sick. Friends, neighbors, stablemen, and loafers gather around. Each gives his opinion of the case, and advises using the remedy his father or even great-grandfather always used, and DR. A. C. DANIELS' WARRANTED which never failed to cure. In the meantime the horse is rapidly grow- ing worse, his owner in desperation tries heroic measures, giving large doses of the most powerful poisons, interspersed with pints, and quarts, of more harmless decoctioi|5»' He knows not what disease he is trying to cure, or any reason why any of the remedies used should cure, only that somebody says that somebody else always used it with wonderful results ; and feeling liis o\va ignorance and weakness, and that some- thing must be done, and at once, he tries it, only to be disappointed. So he goes on, jumping from one thing to another with the most foolish haste, giving no remedy time to act. The consequence of such treatment is, that the horse dies, many times, being killed by the medicine and treatment, so recklessly administered ; or if he recovers, he is sick for days, weeks, months, and many times never fully recovers his former health and spirits. I regret to say that the treatment of colic, even by the leading veterinarians, is simply palliative. They try to ease the pain by stupefying the horse, and depend almost wholly upon nature for the cure. I have long believed that the treatment for colic, as practiced in the leading schools, both in this coun- try and Europe, was unscientific, cruel, and a relic of barbarism. I sought long and earnestly for something that would relieve and cure the spasms in spasmodic, and dissolve and liberate the gas which forms in flatulent forms of this trouble. I met with no encouragement from my professional friends. In answer to my arguments and questions, they seemed unable to give me any light or encouragement, but looked wise and shook their heads ; and if any answered, it was always to discourage me. Still, I felt that I was on the right road ; and at last, almost by inspiration, as it seems now, the happy thought came, and I tried a new combination of drugs, with what result the world knows to-day. My success in introducing this medicine has been most astonishing. It has proved a Godsend, not onl5' among large owners of horses, but to people who own but one horse or mule, and especially to those living away from villages and cities. You who have been using a good colic remedy will find this so much surer, cheaper, and handier to use, that you will never again be without it. COLIC IS CAUSED By a great variety of conditions. The most common are indigestion, change of feed, or water, drinking cold water on an empty stomach, when tired and exhausted, constipation, feeding new hay, oats or corn, any grain that has soured, ulcers, worms, etc. Many cases are brought on by ihe horse taking a sudden chill by standing in a draught when heated ; also by over-feeding, which causes an unusual amount of gas to accumulate ; neglect of the usual evacuations, such as going a long time without urinating. All of the above, as well as many other causes or a combination of them, will bring on colic. VETERINARY MEDICINES. SYMPTOMS. Colic is many times mistaken for inflammation of the bowels. To make plain the various symptoms of each, I insert the following tables, giving entirely different symptoms of each trouble. Examine your horse carefully, and note all the following points before giving any medicine : — COLIC. SPASMODIC AND FLATULENT. 1. Distended Bowels^ relieved by pressure. 2. Pulse natural. 3. Lies down and rolls, and is easier for a short time. 4. Legs and ears generally warm. 5. Comes on suddenly, is never preceded and seldom accompanied by fever. 6. Looks around at his flanks, and paws and kicks, and will not drink. INFLAMMATION OF THE BOWELS. PERITONITIS OR ENTERITIS. 1. Bowels sore to pressure. 2. Pulse quick. 3. Pain constant; lies down, but does not roll. 4. Legs and ears generally cold. 5. Comes on slowly, generally preceded and always accompanied by fever. 6. Looks anxious and distressed, mouth hot, and is thirsty. You ought now to feel certain that you are right, and proceed with all coolness and confidence to treat your horse for colic. TREATMENT. My treatment will seem so easy and simple, as compared with former practice, as to raise some doubts of its results, in the minds of people who have had sad experience wdth powerful medicines ; but follow my directions faithfully, and the result will please you. Get the horse into a nice spot of soft turf or into a deeply bedded box stall, so that if he throws himself down violently he will not bruise his flesh, or rupture himself. Give as soon as possible a dose out of the No. i bottle, 30 drops (the syringe full), as far back on the tongue as possible. In ten min- utes give the same sized dose out of No. 2 bottle, and then continue giving these doses as above, first one and then the other, about ten minutes apart. If the horse is very sick, before you can obtain my Colic Cure, you may give two doses of each (60 drops) instead of one to start with, then proceed as above, or giving once in five to ten minutes apart. Usually four to eight doses will cure a bad case, and two to four a mild case. Keep everything as quiet as possible. If the horse finds any position in which he seems easier, let him keep it. If DR. A. C. DANIELS' WARRANTED convenient give him an injection of blood-v^rarm soapsuds, or intro- ducing the hand, well greased, into his rec'um and remove all excrement possible. Many times he will be found so constipated that the gas cannot work off naturally. Keep cool. Don't get nervous or give other medicines. This remedy will do the work, and never fails if given in any reasonable season. It has cured thousands of cases after they had been given up as lost by good veterinarians. " While there's life there's hope," even if the eyes are filmed, his upper lip turns up, his pulse cannot be felt, and you can prick him with a pin without his moving. Don't despair. He may recover even when as near dead as that. When the horse is cured of colic, give a few doses of my Fever Drops, two hours ap.irt, to guard against inflammation of the bowels which is almost sure to follow a long-continued case of colic. PARALYSIS OF HIND QUARTERS. This trouble has become very common among fine horses, and is greatly dreaded by horsemen. It usually attacks horses that are in fine condition, that have not had their customary amount of exercise for a few days. The horse comes from the stable in fine spirits, but in an hour or two grows stiff in one or both hind legs ; soon falls flat, and is unable to rise, or sits upon his haunches like a dog, and is perfectly helpless. The No. i Colic Cure has been used in many cases with good success ; and if you have no good veterinarian, proceed as follows : — TREATMENT. Give thirty drops No. i every fifteen minutes for two or three hours ; later once in thirty minutes. After he shows signs of improvement, gradually reduce the dose. Wring woollen blankets out of as hot water as c.n be borne, and folding them, cover the back and hips, changing them often. Cover with a rubber blanket to keep in the steam. Rub hind legs with strong mustard water. Sling him up if you can ; if not, keep deep, soft bedding under him, and turn him over and change his position twice in twenty-four hours anyhow ; four times is better. Feed warm bran mashes. Mix into it two of my Renovating Pow- ders each day. Avoid all noise. Keep him as easy and comfortable as you can in every way. If attended to in first stages, this treatment is generally successful. STOPPAGE OF WATER AND BLACK- WATER. Treat as for colic in first stages, also give a few doses of my Reno- vator. If these do not relieve in two hours, the water must be drawn with a catheter. VETERINARY MEDICINES. LOOSENESS OF BOWELS.-SCOURS. Give No. I Colic Cure once in thirty minutes. Usually two or three doses will check it. FOR FAMILY USE. FOR COLIC AND CRAMPS. My Colic Cure will work equally well on the human as on the equine race, and its general use by the medical fraternity in treating the above- mentioned troubles is only a question of a short time, thereby saving, not only an unlimited amount of pain and sickness, but thousands of human lives. TREATMENT. For full-grown persons five to ten drops is a dose, according to severity of the attack. It is quite bitter to the taste, and is best taken in sweetened water or with licorice. One dose is usually sufficient, but if not much better in fifteen minutes, take another dose. I have never known a case that required over three doses. Veterinary Clinical Thermometer. PRICE, $2.00. DIRECTIONS FOR USE. 1. Take the instrument firmly in the hand, and shake the mercury in the tube down to 98° or below. Handle with care, as the mercury is heavy, and the glass quite thin. Never tap the thermometer on anything solid, as it will break if you do. Always shake it down by swinging the hand sharply until the mercury is all together. 2. Raise the horse's tail, and carefully insert the bulb or heavy end of the thermometer about two thirds its length into the rectum. Let it remain four to five minutes. On removing it note the exact top of the column of mercury, which will show the temperature of the horse. 3. Put the instrument aside, as the mercury will remain at highest point until shaken down, and shows you, when ready to use again, just what the degree of fever was when used before. So you can, without making a memorandum, tell whether fever is rising or falling. 10 DR. A. C. DANIELS* WARRANTED DR. DANIELS' COUGH, COLD, AND FEVER DROPS. I offer this medicine as being far superior to anything heretofore known as a specific for COUGHS, COLDS, CHILLS, EPIZOOTIC, PINKEYE, ETC., IN HORSES. Is a positive cure for MILK FEVER IN COWS If taken in any reasonable time. Worth its weight in gold for Is in constant use by hundreds of most successful practitioners of two continents. Although introduced into the United States in 1877, it is fast superseding all other remedies, and is to-day used in more than 100,000 of the principal stables from Maine to California. Each bottle contains 100 doses. DISTEMPER, EPIZOOTIC, PINKEYE, Is caused by atmospheric changes, as it usually occurs in spring and fall, when animals are shedding their hair. It is doubtless many times brought on by ill-ventilated, and ill-smelling, and damp stables, or great anl sudden changes of the weather. It is more or less contagious, especially in stables mentioned above. The great epizootic or dis- temper of 1872 seemed to be in the air, breaking out in all its violence over a large extent of country, in a single day, and attacking every grade and condition with equal severity, and fatality. I do not think we need to expect or provide against any similar epidemic among our stock, as it has only appeared six times in the past eight hundred years, but rather to turn our attention to our every-day troubles, which are perhaps in many cases similar, in some of the symptoms, but lacking in general severity and fatality, if attended to in first stages. SYMPTOMS. Usually a sudden shivering and cold legs and ears, with extreme roughness of coat ; poor appetite ; sore throat ; trouble in swallow- VETERINARY MEDICINES. U ing ; the eyes become dull, the lids swell and tears flow; the inside of nostrils is deep red and dry, but soon a thin watery discharge is no- ticed, followed in a few hours by a thick acrid matter. If the clinical thermometer is inserted into the rectum, the temperature will be at ioi° to 103°. If not well treated in about forty-eight to sixty hours, the thermometer will read 104° to 105° and a deep, heavy distressing cough sets in ; the horse steps around and is in great pain, while films are on his eyes, which are nearly closed. Many other symptoms will be noticed by the experienced veterinarian, and horse owner, but the above will suffice to determine the trouble and put the unprofessional on the right track. If any of the above symptoms are noticed, it is always advisable to watch for others, and at once be on your guard, as in this trouble surely a " stitch in time saves nine." TREATMENT. There are so many complications with this disease that it is impossi- ble to touch on the treatment to be followed in any but the more common. At the very outset let me impress upon your mind that good and careful nursing will be one great factor in the problem as to whether the horse lives or dies. Blanket him well. Give him pure air, without tiraft, cold water little and often. Feed him anything he will eat, as what little strength he has must be kept up. If he will eat, mix with his feed one of my Renovating Powders each night and morn- ing. If he will not eat, mix one of the powders with molasses enough to make it into a thick mass or ball, and spread it on his tongue at intervals, so he will use two powders each day. Give my Fever Drops in all stages. If not much sick at first, six to ten doses of thirty drops each, given thirty minutes to an hour apart, will break it up ; then give once in two hours, both night and day, as long as needed, probably two or three days. Later on about four or six doses each twenty-four hours, for a few days. If the horse at first shows great weakness and violent chills, give my Fever Drops once in ten to thirty minutes, according to severity, for two or three hours. Later on treat as for ordinary cases. After fever is reduced and the horse begins to eat, gradually leave off the Fever Drops, but continue giving or feeding the Renovator, and keep up careful nursing. Keep everything as quiet as possible at all times. Every man who owns a few horses should have a clinical thermometer, as by it he can infallibly determine how much fever the horse has, and whether the fever is rising or falling. In this way he always can know if he is giv- ing the right amount of Fever Drops ; as if he should see, after a few hours' treatment the fever was getting lower, he would feel assured of success ; but if, on the contrary, it was higher, he would give the doses oftener. 12 DR. A. C. DANIELS' WARRANTED The normal or natural temperature of a horse is within a fraction bf 98°. At 102° he is quite feverish; at 105° he is dangerously so. This thermometer will show many times whether your horse has colic, fever or inflammation of the bowels, and be of the greatest assistance in treating your stock. In case the throat is sore or swollen, always steam the head as di- rected for colds, if you can do so without frightening the animal. By using water that will throw off but little steam at first, y-ou can gradually use it hotter. A horse of fair intelligence will soon show that he likes this steaming ; seems to know that it does him good. LUNG FEVER -PNEUMONIA, Is inflammation of the lungs, which soon causes a flow of secretion, which fills up the air cells, so that the lungs cannot receive the air. Consequently he suffocates and dies, or else the lymph is absorbed into the system, and he recovers. The causes of this common and dangerous disease are many ; but the most common is the taking of a sudden cold, which, being neglected, rapidly becomes settled on the lungs. SYMPTOMS. As a first symptom we may note the pulse, which in health stands about 40°, now rises to 70° or 80° to the minute. Taking his tempera- ture with the thermometer, we find it over 100° ; probably 103° or a little more. He is weary, but will not lie down, and stands braced and rigid. These are all symptoms of Lung Fever, but they are also symptoms of other complications. The real test is the sound of the lungs themselves, by tapping on the side, when they sound dull', or by putting the ear to his side, and listening to the sound of the air passing through the lungs, and then sounding a well horse. TREATMENT. Similar to that advised for distemper. It is of the utmost importanc< to take it in first stages. If stable is close or smells of ammonia, rt move him at once, where he can have plenty of good, pure air (not cold) Cover every part of him with warm blankets and bandages. Rub mustard well into his sides and breast, but do not let it remain too long. Give all the cold water he will drink, litde and often. Let his food be bran mashes, cooked carrots, and clean, nice hay. Give my Fever Drops once in thirty minutes for two to four hours ; later on, once an hour. Give at least one dose of my Renovator each day, as his strength must be kept up at all hazards. When the pulse gets down near 45° or 50°, or the horse sweats profusely, leave off giving the Fever VETERINARY MEDICINES. 13 Drops so often, as after this stage is reached he will need good care and not much medicine. If the horse seems very weak, give a gill of whiskey four times a day ; if costive, give soapsuds injections occasionally. CHRONIC COUGH Is simply an old cough, or a cough that the horse has been troubled with for some time. It arises from so many different causes, and has so many variations, that no accurate definition of it is possible, and I don't think it is needed, as most horse owners know it without any intro- duction. While a large proportion of cases are incurable, many yield to treatment ; and if the horse is of any value, it usually is worth trying. Give the Fever Drops four to six times and the Renovator twice each day. Feel along his windpipe carefully for some enlargement or thickening. If anything of this nature is found, clip the hair over the spot, and apply my Blister, which will absorb and dissolve any thickening of the carti- lage. Repeat in two weeks if needed. Many times an attack of dis- temper will cause inflammation and swelling of the throat, which, not being properly treated, will gradually subside, leaving a lump, which obstructs the air passages. This trouble will cause a horse to cough and breathe hard after a long, hard pull or climbing a steep hill. COLD IN THE HEAD Is an inflammation of the lining of the nostrils and other parts of the head and throat. Sometimes the eyes are affected, and lids swell and tears flow ; the throat is sore and the horse coughs. TREATMENT. If taken at once, give three to five doses each day of Dr. Daniels' Fever Drops. Feed bran mashes. Give each day one or two doses of my Renovator. Keep the horse in a cool but well-ventilated stall with- out draught, and keep him well blanketed. Hang a blanket over his head, and put a pail of hot water underneath. Stir it gently, to cause steam to arise. Put in a piece of hot iron, or stone occasionally. Usually two or three days' treatment, with the Fever Drops, is sufficient, but feed the Renovator for a week or two after. MILK FEVER IN COWS. This dreaded disease has proved the bane of dairymen througnout the world, as it is very common, and generally attacks the best bred and greatest milkers in the herd, and with the best treatment, if any ways severe at first, has hitherto proved fatal. I now offer you a U DR. A. C. DANIELS' WARRANTED remedy which I do not claim will never fail under any conditions, but which will prove, upon trial, so superior to all medicines hitherto known as to astonish the long-experienced dairyman who has suffered the loss of hundreds and perhaps thousands of dollars from this fell destroyer of his most valuable cows. I can and will prove to you, by the undisput- able evidence of your own experience, on your own stock, that at last the long-looked-for medicine and treatment are at hand, and that with small expense in money or time you can bid defiance to this dread destroyer. MILK FEVER, PUERPERAL FEVER, OR INFLAMMATION OF THE WOMB, Is caused by injury to the womb in calving, exposure to colds and chills or retained after-birth. It is also attributed at times to conta- gion, as it is found more liable to occur in herds where one or more cows have had it. SYMPTOMS. Usually appear within three days from calving. The cow carries her head low, does not chew her cud, poor appetite, and steps from side to side with her hind feet, indicating pain in hind parts. Breath- ing is rapid, eyes bloodshot and staring, with a flow of tears. She soon grows weak, and falls or lies down ; seems to think she cannot rise, and appears to have a general collapse. Head and horns hot to the hand. In first stages the bowels are sometimes loose, but usually con- stipated, and the evacuations are darker than usual. The urine is light colored. TREATMENT. If the cow is down, get her body and head into the position in which cattle usually lie. Pack bedding around her, to hold her in easy posi- tion, with head well raised. Give her at once about a quart of raw linseed oil. Put a bag of broken ice on back of her head, and change it once in two or three hours. Feed carrots, bran mashes, or any easily digested food. Give injections into the rectum of blood-warm soapsuds every hour. Give in ordinary cases Dr. Daniels' Fever Drops in thirty- drop doses, well back on the tongue or gullet, once in half an hour, till a marked improvement is noticed. Later on pnce an hour. Usually two days will effect a cure. In severe cases, when the cow will make no effort to rise and the eyes look dead and glassy, administer the Fever Drops once in ten or fifteen minutes for two to four hours, or VETERINARY MEDICINES. 15 uiitil the cow appears quiet and as if pain was relieved. Then give once in half an hour, to an hour, till she eats and appears all right. This treatment will effect a cure in ninety-five cases in a hundred, and will never fail if the case is taken in time. It is always well to give the Fever Drops to every cow, five or six thirty-drop doses each day for three days after calving. Always give the cow a plenty of gentle exercise for a month before calving. These precautions will save millions of dollars to the dairymen of this country each year, FOR FAMILY USE. The Cough, Cold, and Fever Drops is, without any doubt, the best remedy on earth, for use in the family for coughs, colds, and fevers. It will break up a severe cold in one night, but it must be the first night after the exposure. For a cough it is incomparable ; has relieved and cured hundreds of old chronic coughs of months' and even years' standing. It works like a charm in bronchial affections, when there seems to be a tickling in the throat, which is caused by an inflammation, and irritation of the bronchical tubes or air passages. It cannot be expected, with reason, that a few doses will cure a cough of long standing ; it should be used at regular intervals, for a considerable time, in all such cases. COLDS OR NEW COUGHS. Put a teaspoonful of the drops in a medium-sized glass of water, and take a teaspoonful of that water every hour until feeling of tightness is relieved. After that, take the same dose once in two to four hours until well. In severe cases, it may be taken once in fifteen minutes, until patient perspires freely. OLD OR CHRONIC COUGH. Prepare the medicine as directed for colds, and take the same sized dose once in four hours, night and day. This must be followed for at least a week, and probably two weeks before any improvement will be noticed. If cough is very troublesome, it is advisable to take a smaller dose once in two hours. It is impossible to give directions for treat- ing all cases. Each can tell what amount is best suited for his case after a short trial. Enough should be taken to relieve and loosen the cough ; then continue about in the same way. 16 DR. A. C. DANIELS' WARRANTED DR. DANIELS' Horse Renovator. ESPECIALLY DESIGNED FOR FITTING HORSES FOR MARKET OR FINE PRIVATE USE. ALSO, FOR COUGHS, INDIGESTION, LOSS OF APPETITE, ETC. Believing that there was a demand among the better class of horse- men for Condition Powders that would really do what was claimed for them, with whom quality and not gtmntity would count, I have not spared pains or expense in manufacturing this medicine, and the enor- mous sales which it has attained are indeed flattering to my judgment. If given occasionally, it will ward off Fits, Colic, Fever, Indigestion, Heaves, Worms, Bots, Pinkeye, etc., and keep your horse looking and feeling as "fine as silk." If your horse coughs, does not shed his old cpat, is hide-bound or pinch bellied, scours, does not eat nor digest his food well, legs stocked, or he drives dull and logy, try this medicine. It will show its effects on the kidneys in one day, on his spirits in two days, greatly improve his general condition within two weeks, and many times add twenty-five or even fifty pounds to his weight. ALL ROOTS AND BARKS, When ground and exposed to the air, soon lose their strength and vir- tue. For this reason, and also that exactly the same dose may be given each time, to insure the best results, I have put each dose in a separate box, thus insuring the strength of this medicine, even if kept for years. I warrant it to cleanse the system of all impurities arising from bad blood, disordered stomach or kidneys. This wonderful remedy has put hundreds of thousands of worn-out, and run-down horses in fine condition. No matter who has been treating your horse without success, or how long continued has been his trouble, I ask you to try this medicine. If very badly out of order, two doses a day may be given. Bear in mind that it will take time to remedy a case of long standing ; but if you will try it thoroughly and your horse has not improved, you can get your money refunded from any one who sells you the medicine. What the electric is among lights, my Renovator is to other condition powders. Those who have not used it, cannot know, or understand, what its effect will be in restoring to health, and spirit, a run-down, or low-spirited horse. Words fail me in striving to convey to you any adequate idea of what a few doses of this remarkable preparation will do. VETERINARY MEDICINES. 17 MM HORSES THiLT ARE KEPT FOR PLEASURE DRIVING do not have exercise enough. Especially is this true during long-continued spells of bad weather. When the horse is taken out he seems to feel in the best of spirits. He starts off beautifully, but soon begins to sweat, becomes dull and logy. If touched with the whip, he soon falls back, and seems to feel weak and shiftless, which is his exact condition. To owners of nice driving horses, I say try a single package of my Renovator on such a horse, and note the wonderful change ; note his change of spirit, style, and endurance. All is changed. He pricks his ear at sound of following footsteps, is all life and energy, and ready to do his best at a moment's notice. Don't understand me to say that it will change a work-horse into a thoroughbred ; but that a few doses a week will put any horse, that has natural life and spirit, into the best of shape, and will maintain that high condition. The question is often asked. How long is it best to continue feeding this powder? In answer I will say, that usually one or two packages will put a horse into the best possible condition. After that point is reached, one or two doses a week, will keep his blood, stomach, and kidneys in a high state of health, and consequently his hair will look its best. No ARSENIC, ANTIMONY, OR ROSIN, or Other poisons are used in its composition. It is a powerful tonic blood purifier, diuretic and demulcent. I recommend it to be used, under all conditions, in connection with my Fever Drops. It carries off all acrid and poisonous secretions by way of the kidneys and sweat glands, and is of the greatest value in all inflammations of the membranes of the throat, stomach, and bowels. Nothing can equal its action in keeping up the strength during fevers and inflammations, building up the system, and throwing off all foul acrid and residual particles of disease afterwards. POULTICES. Poultices are of the greatest value in some cases, in fact, indispensable. A first-class poultice is made by pouring boiling water into bran. All the better if one fourth as much linseed meal has been put with the bran. Pour the water on slowly, stirring the bran, and let it stand and cook a few minutes, and put it on as hot as can be borne. Always make enough. Use for ordinary poultices six or eight quarts of bran and two quarts linseed. Get it just thick enough so it will spread around nicely without any lumps. If used before it is well cooked, it is liable to grow dry and be of no use. Boiled turnips can be substituted for linseed if more convenient. Always use a large quantity of the poultice, and have it soft and moist. DR. A. C. DANIELS' WARRANTED DR. DANIELS' Wonder Worker LINIMENT. The Most "Wonderful Healer ever Known for For all kinds of Sprains, Sores, or Wounds, either new or old, NATURE'S CURE For Burns, Scalds, Piles, Chafing, Ingrowing Nails, Salt Rheum, etc. Also for Harness Galls, Cuts, Sore Shoulders, Scratches, Thrush, and Lameness from any cause whatever. This wonderful medicine is a revolution in everything heretofore ap- pertaining to liniment; is a powerful astringeni — healing from the moment of its application. It contains no poisonous ingredients ; will never blister, even if covered with a bandage ; and while it will not remove spavins and ringbones, its continued use will remove any soreness of flesh, cords, or muscles. Cures harness galls and keep working the horse ; stops bleeding, and heals any ordinary wounds without soreness or festering. This medicine is rightly named, as it is the most wonderful healer known to man. It is so mild and still so powerful to heal that its action creates the greatest surprise among people who have had the most extensive experience in treating sores and wounds of every kind. While so soothing as to be used as a gargle for sore throat or even on a chafing baby with no evil effects, it is still powerful enough to eat out proud flesh in a few hours, and heal sores of many years^ standing, that have resisted the most heroic treatment. It will act with the most surprising results on flesh wounds, stopping the flow of blood at once and cauterizing the flesh, forming a coating almost instantly, that pre- vents the air striking the lacerated and raw flesh. The alcohol used in its preparation will in some cases cause for a moment a smarting ; but this is soon over, and is succeeded by the most cooling sensation. This medicine is a great departure from all former application of which medicinal works give us any knowledge. VETERINARY MEDICINES. 19 It contains no poisonous ingredients whatever. Its ingredients are so common sense, so simple, as to commend itself at once to all who know its composition. I recommend it in every kind of soreness of flesh or muscles in man or beast that can be reached by an outward application. No medicine for soreness ever discovered, compares with it. Words fail in accurately describing its remarkable, and wondrous healing power. While competitors are sounding the praises of their " cure alls " on golden bugles and silver trumpets, we are reheving the distressed and healing those who are almost without hope, causing joy to succeed sorrow in thousands of hearts in every country in the civihzed world. I am daily in receipt of heartfelt and thankful letters of recommendation of this true Wonder Worker from the poor and illiterate as well as the most highly educated and wealthy, and in almost every language. I do not recommend it for deep-seated lameness of the muscles, or where a counter-irritant liniment is required, but for all sprains of the superficial muscles and every kind of soreness of the flesh, whether the skin is abraided or not, it will always do its wonderful work. Flesh Wounds. — Apply the Wonderworker freely, as quickly as possible. If the wound is deep, inject the liniment into its deepest part with a syringe. A sponge well saturated with it may be bound on the wound. Scratches. — Clean off all dirt, and wipe dry with a soft cloth ; then apply the Wonder Worker three times a day, and feed the Ren- ovator once or twice each day, to cleanse the blood, which in the larger proportion of cases is the primary seat of the disease. Never wash the sore and swollen ankles with water or suds, but keep them as dry as possible. Several of my patrons have used the Hoof Grower on scratches with great success. Bruised Knees or Ankles, caused by stumbling or interfering, are rapidly cooled down and healed by using the Wonder Worker if applied at once. After the knee has become much swollen, poultice it, reduce the swelling, and then apply the liniment, rubbing in well. Sprains, Strains, or any soreness of the flesh or muscles, are rapidly cured by applying the Wonder Worker three or more times daily, rubbing it in thoroughly with the hand. Bandage if needed. 20 t)R. A. C. IDANIELS' WARRANTED Saddle or Harness Galls and Chaps. — Apply the Wonder Worker with a small sponge several times a day, and if possible remove the saddle from the wound. This liniment will not smart or blister under any circumstances, but cools the fevered flesh, and forms a coating over the raw spot at once. I recommend saturating the hair and skin on breast or back of a green horse before working him, as it will toughen and harden the skin. Thrush or Foot Rot. — Clean out and cut away all dead or diseased hoof; then turning the foot up, pour in a little Wonder Worker to fill the cracks around the heel and frog. Hold the foot a few minutes, to let it strike in. Do this twice a day. Three days will usually effect a cure. Calked Hoof or Quarters.— Apply the Wonder Worker as soon as possible after the accident, wetting the part thoroughly. It will soon close the wound and prevent all soreness. Hundreds of trotters in races have grabbed their quarters badly, and been laid by for weeks, if not permanently injured. A timely use of my liniment will work like a charm, and the horse go on and finish his race, and never take ^ lame step from any ordinary cut. Nail in the Foot. — Draw out the nail, and with a sharp knife cut out around the hole in a tunnel shape, being very careful to get to the very bottom of the puncture. Then, holding up the foot, fill the hole with Wonder Worker, and let it soak in. Do this three times a day for two or three days. Sometimes it is well to fill a small sponge with it, and, pressing it into the wound, fasten it there by putting a piece of zinc or thin hoop iron over it and spring the ends under the shoe. You need not fear lockjaw if you follow above directions. CATTLE. Cows' Teats are often chapped and sore, but are quickly cured by applying the Wonder Worker night and morning. Next day apply Hoof Grower night and morning. Foot Rot or Thrush. — Working oxen are very liable to this trouble. The Wonder Worker will cure even after all other remedies have been tried and failed. Either pour on a little between the dew claws two or three times a day, or apply with a soft swab. It will soon eat out the proud flesh or core, after which apply the Hoof Grower a few times. Veterinary MEDicmEs. 21 Sore Neck. — Apply the Wonder Worker three times a day. One day^s use will surprise one unacquainted with this medicine. Cattle that are b uised or gored should be treated at once with Wonder Worker. If wound is punctured, inject the liniment with a syringe. AS A FAMILY LINIMENT the Wonder Worker will be found indispensable. Its only objection is that it will stain white clothing. Burns and Scalds. — Undoubtedly many thousands of human lives might have been saved by a timely use of this wonderful healer, as, if applied at once, its action is marvellous. It will instantly form a coating over the flesh, keeping out the air, relieving all pain at once, and beginning to heal from the moment of its application. Ladies and children who are around the cook stove, very often get a small burn, which will cause great pain. A few drops of this liniment will save hours of pain and torture. Cuts. — Applied at once, the Wonder Worker will stop bleeding, and close the wound, and prevent all soreness and inflammation. I ncr rowing Nails. — Apply the Wonder Worker with soft sponge or cloth. Bind it on over night. Rheumatism. — In many cases of this painful disease, nothing has ever been discovered for an outward application to compare with the Wonder Worker. Rub it in gently with the hand, and then by any convenient means heat the afflicted part. This should be repeated every hour or two until relieved. Prepare my Cough, Cold, and Fever Drops as directed for coughs, and take the same dose, once in half an hour to an hour, until relieved. After feeling of soreness is removed, take the same sized dose, once in four hours, for a few days. People who are subject to rheumatism will do well to take a few doses at once, after any exposure to cold or dampness. Neuralgia. — This very King of Pain yields to a thorough treat- ment with the Wonder Worker and Fever Drops, as directed for rheu- matism. It has afforded relief to the tortured nerves in a few hours, and sometimes minutes, in cases that had baffled the ablest physicians, and defied all treatment for weeks, months, and sometimes years. Do not delay its use for a moment. On first symptoms of it, begin at once, and save yourself from the clutches of this indescribable devil of torture. Piies. — Many thousands of bottles of the Wonder Worker have been used for this disgusting, and distressing trouble, and I have never yet heard of a single instance where it did not afford immediate relief. 22 DR. A. C. DANIELS' WARRANTED and in a great majority of cases an ultimate cure. It has entirely, and permanently cured, many cases tliat were of many years' standing, on which in some instances hundreds of dollars had been thrown away in vainly searching for relief even. To any troubled to a greater or less degree with this annoying comj^laint, I say that one bottle of the Wonder Worker will relieve and probably permanently cure you. Try it, and tell your suffering friends the result. Obtain a small soft sponge, fill it with the liniment, and carefully touch the parts, say twice a day. Sometimes it is more convenient to tie the sponge to a small stick or pencil. If all parts cannot be reached in this way, use a small syringe, to inject a small quantity. DR. DANIELS' HOOF GROWER AND SORENER. No part of the Horse is less understood, or more neglected than the Foot. The Horse was created to run wild barefooted, his feet constantly WET. Man has changed his condition, keep- ing his feet almost constantly DRY, which causes at least ONE HALF OF ALL LAMENESS OF HORSES. This remedy is a positive cure for all ailments of horses' feet, caused by hard and constant driving on hard roads, or by standing in the sta- bles. It will prevent and remove all brittleness, cures and prevents shelliness, and quarter crack, by promoting the rapid growth of the hoof — will make the feet soft and tough. Corns are cured by the new growth of hoof being pared away. It is especially recommended for trotting, driving, or carriage horses, where shoeing is needed often, as it grows plenty of hoof to be cut away, toughens the whole foot so that ■the nails hold good, and greatly lessens the liability of tearing away a large piece of the hoof when a shoe is torn off. It makes soaking and packing entirely unnecessary, saving time and labor. In short, it makes the hooi groTU, softens and toughens it, and draws out the soreness, as no amount of soaking can possibly do, and will GROW A NEW HOOF IN FROM THREE TO FOUR MONTHS. To one unacquainted with the wonderful properties of this remedy, and who has noticed the slow growth of a hoof, it seems unreasonable to claim to grow an entirely new hoof in so short a time, and he de- cides that it can't be done. To all I say, try this remedy and follow the directions thoroughly ; and while it may not do all I claim in e7Jery VETERINARY MEDICINES. 23 case, if you are not satisfied with the results at the end of three or four months, and do not think your money and time well spent, go to the place you bought it, and get the money you paid for it. Can any- thing be fairer? Of the fifteen millions of horses in this country, cer- tainly half of them, at some time or other, have trouble with their feet, and a large proportion of them become dead lame and almost useless. Think of the loss to the owners, to say nothing of the pain and misery endured by the tortured animals. I do not claim that all can be aired, but all can be helped and relieved, at small expense in time and money. When you notice the beast flinching on the hard road or pave- ment, or going down hill, or your horse, when standing still, rests or puts out his forefoot, do not delay, but use this ointment at once. Don't let your animal get lame before you attend to him ; prevention is far better than cure. Any of the above signs are indications that his frog is hard and dry, the coronet non-elastic, or the foot becoming contracted. Examine his feet, and clean them, especially the cracks around the frog. If it smells foul, he has the thrush, in which case use the Wonder Worker as directed. Feel around the top of the hoof under the hair, press the upper edge with your nail. If found hard and unyielding, rub on the Hoof Grower, and work it in well. Many times the upper edge of the hoof, which should be quite soft, will grow hard and curl over like an ingrowing nail, and cause the most excruciating pain. The frog is the cushion provided by nature to prevent the effects of the concussion when the foot strikes hard substances. When the frog becomes hard and bone-like, it loses all its elasticity, and is useless for the purpose for which it was intended, and inflammation quickly results. You must pay close attention to the frog, and, when found growing hard, apply the Hoof Grower around it. In order to have it reach the very bottom of the deep cracks around the frog, it is best to melt the ointment when putting it in. Sometimes it may be more con- venient to put the ointment in with the finger, and then touch it with a small iron rod heated a little by a lamp or stove. It is of no use to use this remedy a few times only, in relieving sore and contracted feet, as no permanent good will come of it, unless it is used for some length of time. In other places I have recommended this ointment being used in connection with the Wonder Worker for healing sore teats, scratches, etc. FOR FAMILY USE. My Hoof Grower will be found the most healing and valuable salve ever put on the market in every case for which a nice clean salve is needed in the family. Nothing nicer or cleaner was ever used. It stimulates, draws mildly, and heals at same time. You will have no use for high-priced salves after one trial of it. DR. A. C. DANIELS' WARRANTED DR. DANIELS' WORM KILLER. I am of the opinion that every horse, has at all times, more or less worms, but not in such abundance as to be a source of annoyance. While in some cases worms are the primary cause of sickness and alimentary disturbances, usually worms are a symptom or indication of a disordered stomach and indigestion. Understand me to say that when the condition of the horse is weakened or low, either from over- feed, overwork, neglect, irregular feeding, etc., then the conditions are favorable for the worms to increase and multiply, and not only irritate the horse to an alarming degree, but to eat up and destroy and rob him of the health and strength giving properties of his food, so that all his former bad condition is rapidly made worse, his spirit is gone, coat is rough and staring, appetite poor, food passes half digested, in many cases he scours, and his owner wonders why he does no better when he feeds him so well and works him so lightly. Over thirty distinct varieties of worms infest the horse, but two are most common. THE ROUND WORM, resembling the common earth worm in size and shape, sometimes reaching a foot or more in length, inhabits the small intestines and sometimes the stomach. Probably a few do little if any injury, but a large number impair digestion, the stomach is out of order, and the horse is soon out of condition, and runs down with no visible cause. I consider this worm the cause of many horses having fits, and consequently very dangerous. One or two packages of my Worm Killer will expel them, if the amount of hay and grain is cut down and the Killer fed in cooked bran mash. It is almost impossible to eradicate worms from a stomach and bowels that are crowded and stuffed with hay and rich grain. In treating for worms always cut down the feed. Give the Killer in a small warm bran mash, and don't feed anything more for six to ten hours. THE NEEDLE OR PIN WORM. — A small, white worm from one to two inches long; breeds in the colon and rectum, often appearing in tens of thousands. They are very irritating to the horse when in the rectum, causing great uneasiness and rubbing of the tail. It is hard to reach this fellow by way of the stomach, as all medicines have to pass through the glands and organs of digestion and assimila- tion, and nearly all its properties are supposed to be taken into the system before reaching the rectum, or large bowel. It is so much more convenient to give the Worm Killer in the feed, than by an injec- tion, that in general people prefer to try this method first, and usually with first-class results ; but in some cases it is necessary to give the Worm Killer in form of an injection. VETERINARY MEDICINES. 25 In this case it is best to proceed just after the horse has evacuated his rectum. Dissolving two doses of the Killer in two quarts of boiling water, after ten minutes add cold water enough to bring it to blood heat, and inject it into his rectum. Repeat this treatment in eight or ten days, to kill the brood that will hatch out in the meantime. The dose as put up is right amount for a full-grown horse. Colts should have one half a dose, more or less according to age and size. The Worm Killer can be fed to brood mares with perfect safety. Thousands, yes millions of horses that have no visible sign of worms, are literally alive with them ; and if these powders are fed according to directions, these worms will be thrown off, and the horse will improve at once. On the other hand, because you notice that your horse passes a worm occasionally, it is not a certain indication that he is "wormy" in the ordinary sense of the word, but it is always good judgment to treat for worms at least indication. The action of this medicine is most scientific, as while expelling the worms it tones up the stomach and alimentary canal, and improves the general con- dition of the horse. DR. DANIELS' ABSORBENT BLISTER. FOR CURBS, SPLINTS, ETC. Having so much demand for something that would remove enlarge- ments like curbs, splints, thickened ankles, enlarged knees, etc., I have decided to put this Blister in a convenient form, and place it within the reach of all. While no specific directions can be given for using it in all cases, a little practice will teach any one to handle it with good results. The object desired is to remove the swelling, or bunch, and not scar, or disfigure the animal. This remedy is designed to create, first, an irritation, and, secondly, to absorb the thickened cartilage. The severity of the blister is regulated by the quantity applied, and how thoroughly and long it is rubbed in. It is better, in beginning to use it, to go careful, and at first apply but little, and rub it in well, and watch results, as the treatment can be repeated any number of times until the desired result is obtained. Only one leg or spot should be treated at once ; and the hair should always be closely cut or shaved. Never blister when it is highly inflamed or shows signs of erysipelas. If the blister should cause the horse too much pain or irritability, or loss of appetite, wash the blistered part with warm soapsuds, and smear the sore with sweet, or any clean oil. Always.be careful to tie the DR. A. C. DANIELS' WARRANTED horse in such a way that he cannot bite the blistered place, which he will always try to do, and will get himself into the most curious posi- tions in order to do so. Many fine horses have disfigured themselves for life by biting and tearing at a small blister. It is many times desir- able to hitch their tails, to keep them from twisting around their hind quarters. Let the part get well and the scabs fall off themselves, before using the blister the second time. If the first blistering was satisfactory, do not use quite as much or rub it in as hard in using it the second time, as the skin will not yet be as tough as before. I have had many highly complimentary letters and recommendations for this preparation, and, I regret to say, some of a contrary nature, where people had not followed the plain directions as to clipping the hair ; had applied too much, or had used it when the parts were inflamed to begin with. In the hands of men who will use judgment and follow the directions, it will give first-class results and satisfaction. It is not de- signed for use in cases of deep-seated lameness or inflammation, but simply for removing bunches or enlargements. THE PULSE. It is frequently of great importance to note the pulsations of the heart in treating disease. When at rest the pulse beats at an average of about 40 per minute, but varies in different horses from 34 to 42. In colts and old horses it runs much higher, — sometimes to 60 and over, — and still the health be good. It will also be increased by hot stables, excitement, or pregnancy. The most convenient place to feel the horse"'s pulse is on the underside of the lower jaw. Press the fingers along the edge of the jaw, when a cord or ridge will be felt. Press on this with the fingers, when you will feel it throb. A very little prac- tice in "taking the pulse" will soon make it plain to you, and is liable to be of great service. Any great variation in the pulse is a sign of disease. If it is rapid and hard, it indicates high fever and inflammation ; if weak and rapid, there is low fever and general weakness, and lung trouble. Worcester, Mass., Nov. 23, 1888. Dr. Daniels : Please send one-half gross each of your Colic Cure and Fever Drops at once. I have just returned from vacation, and am fill- ing my barn with horses. I dare not commence the season without your remedies. T. S. Sloan. Mr. Sloan is the largest horse dealer, outside Boston, in New England. Has sold upwards of 25,000 horses in the past twenty years. Charles E. Moulton, Hack and Livery Stable, Amesbury, Mass., writes : "After using your Hoof Grower over two years, I gladly recom- mend it. No one can believe what it will do until they try it. It seems to draw out all soreness and tenderness from the feet, and make them grow very fast. Have never known it to fail to do exactly as vou claim." VETERINARY MEDICINES. LOCAL AGENTS WANTED. I want one or more good reliable agents in every town and village, whose word will be taken. I want a "white" man — -one in whom people place confidence, who, when he advises them to buy my medi- cine, and says that he will refund the purchase money if the medicine is not entirely satisfactory. Such are the men I want to represent my medicines. Although the profit to the retailer is not large, the sales will soon be large, and at the end of the year the deal will be satisfactory. Remit in any way you prefer. I will send you circulars with your business card on, also postal cards explaining the medicines, ready to mail to leading horsemen, telling them you have the goods for sale, and a fine line of advertising matter. I will also put in extra goods to pay express charges. Be careful and send full directions for shipping, and send business card if convenient. ORDERING BY MAIL. My medicines are now sold at retail, at over thirty thousand places in the United States alone. Ask your druggist or medicine dealer for them. If they do not have them, and will not get them for you, send your address, with plain directions for shipping, accompanied by postal note, money order, registered letter or check, and I will for- ward the goods by first express, and either pay the express charges myself, or put in extra medicines enough to more than pay it. If you are a dealer or in a way to sell the medicines, I will make you a dis- count and send you a fine line of advertising, and allow you to refund the money to any of your patrons who are in any way dissatisfied with the medicines. As to my responsibility, I refer to any bank or business man in Boston, or Bradstreet's Mercantile Agency. Albany, N. Y., July 8, 1889. Dr. Daniels: I had a horse that had contracted feet. Five different veterinarians pronounced him incurable and advised me to kill him. Your agent persuaded me to try your Hoof Grower. I did so, and in a short time put him to work. His feet are growing rapidly, and he will soon be as sound as ever. One of my friends had a horse that had distemper and left him with a cough. After six months he commenced using your Fever Drops and Renovator. The cough is left him and he is all right. No one can say enough for your wonderful medicines. Capt. H. W.

Respectfully yours, Scott Bros., Teamsters and General Contractors, 1 146 South St. From a Prince of the Blood Cleveland, Ohio, Jan. 12, 1892. Dr. A. C. Daniels, 55 Portland Street, Boston, Mass. Dear Sir : In reply to your note, asking if I have ever used your remedies, I will say that I keep them in my stable as regularly as I do my hay and oats. I think there are many things patented, advertised, and sold to the public as horse remedies, etc., that are nothing more or less than a fraud. My veterinary surgeon is a man of education and long practice. I do not use any medicine of any kind without his advice ; he recommended to me your prepared medicines, and I have used them with the best results. I very seldom lend my name to a recommendation of any kind. Witn one exception I have never recommended any medicines, or, in fact, very few tools of any description. I am going to, in this case, break my rule and allow you to use my name, should you see fit to do so, not so much for the pecuniary aid of profit it may bring you, as for the comfort and pleasure I think it will bring to God's noblest gift to man, a good horse. As I make my living out of horses, I have a double interest in their welfare, — dollars and cents and sentiment besides. I feel like thanking you for doing so much for the health and comfort of an animal that I think so much of. Yours truly, JOHN SPLAN.
