Kendall’s Spavin Cure
Quack Remedies #1: Going for Kendall’s Spavin Cure. The most successful Remedy ever discovered aits is certain in its effects and does not blistre. Read Proof below.
St. Charles, Ark., August 23, 1883, B. J. Kendall & Co., –Gents: –I take pleasure in informing you that I used nearly all of the bottle of Kendall’s Spavin Cure that you sent me from St. Louis, according to directions, and to my satisfaction (and I must say to my surprise) in about two weeks my mare was entirely well of the lameness caused by a bog spavin of over one year’s standing and in three weeks time the swelling was all gone and the mare is now entirely well and can trot as glib as ever. I consider the bottle of Kendall’s Spavin Cure worth to me about $150.00, as the animal was worthless as she was on three legs and could scarcely get around on them and now she is the finest buggy animal in these parts and with the remnent of the bottle after curing the mare I have nearly cured a severe corn on the ball of my big toe that has given me great pain for two or three years. I have only applied Kendall’s Spavin Cure four times and the corn now is nearly out by the roots and without any pain. In short I think it is the best liniment that is in use. I have Kendall’s Treatise on the Horse and his Diseases and I would not take any money for it if I could not get another. Hoping you great success I remain Yours Respectfully, R. C. Martin
KENDALL’S SPAVIN CURE. From the “Spirit of the Times.” Dec. 22, ’83
It is admitted there is a great advance in veterinary science wit in the past decade, yet many will scarcely believe that a spavin cure is possible. Fortunate indeed, however, it is for the poor horse suffering from lameness of this kind that Kendall’s Spavin Cure has been discovered, as it is certain in its effects and has worked wonders in thousands of such cases. Send for illustrated catalogue, giving positive proof. Price of the Spavin Cure, $1. Address Dr. B. J. Kendall & Co., Proprietors, Enosburgh Falls, Va.

Snap-Traps for Disease Caused by Rats
While the concept of trapping mice dates back centuries, the first patented spring-loaded mouse trap was introduced to the market in 1894 by an American inventor named William C. Hooker. The classic bait used with this type of trap, even today, is cheese, but the best bait for mouse traps is actually bread, meat, or butter.
In 1897, British inventor James Henry Atkinson debuted a prototype mouse trap called the “Little Nipper.” This classic snapping mouse trap springs shut in only 0.0038 seconds! The design prevails today and is still manufactured by a company called Procter.
Hiram Stevens Maxim, an American-born inventor who lived in London, contributed a different type of mouse trap that automatically reset itself. Local mills used the traps to effectively get rid of pesky rodents. However, Maxim never applied for a patent on this particular gadget, as he had plenty of other inventions to occupy his time and effort.
