From an Indiana exchange we clip the following: A little boy in Kingston was bitten by a mad dog about two weeks ago, and a mad stone was applied to the wound, which was healed. The stone has been in the family fifty-two years. It looks very much like ordinary pumice stone, and would weigh about two or three ounces. It was brought from North Carolina, and is said to have been found in the stomach of an elephant.
