    Curing St. Vitus dance by having a poodle dog sleep with the patient has been announced by a Denver women as the most effective remedy she has found yet for her two daughters.
    The woman, Mrs. J. C. Morris of 2064 South Grant street, declared that for six years she has kept a French poodle dog that alternately sleeps with her young daughters, both of whom are afflicted with St. Vitus dance. One of the daughters, the elder one, now is virtually cured of the disease, according to Mrs. Morris, and the other is showing rapid improvement.
    “An old time physician told me about this remedy,” Mrs. Morris said., “and as an experiment I tried it and found it more soothing to the nerves of a St. Vitus dance patient than any medicine ever prescibed.” Louisville Courier-Journal.
