Lansing Journal : Postmaster Pugh this forenoon received a letter dated at Ann Arbor. It was written in a delicate, feminine hand, and a faint odor cf attar of roses clung to it, but the remarks of the fair writer were confined excludvely to omons. She had learned of the typhoid fever outbreak at Lansing, and although Postmaster Pugh was a total stranger she could not resist the temptation to conflde to hira that the best known remedy was to apply ehopped onions wrapped up in cloths to the patient's chest, bowels, feet and wrists, and when the onions changed color replace them with fresh ones. Mr. Pugh prefers typhoid to onions, but he desires to share his kaowledge of the remedy with the public.
