Problem:
How do I read Madame Ovaree's prescription?

written by Doc when  he was looking through a whiskey glass.  You'll need to do
the same to read it. Go to the saloon and get the Whiskey Glass from Doc. Click
it on the Prescription.  As you slide the glass around on  the paper, you'll be
able to read it.

Problem:
How do I prepare Madame Ovaree's prescription?

Hint:
Hope you realized  that the prescription the Doctor gave  you was incorrect for

as far as you  can. If you back her up far enough,  She'll lose her balance and
fall, dropping her Saber.


Problem:
Kenny the Kid showed up again to  cut my career as a gunfighter short. How
do I defeat him?

Hint:
Once Kenny the Kid enters, keep the  Saber on Penelope, and use Freddy's Silver
Ear  to kill  Kenny by  clicking it  on him.  Congratulations! You've  not only
finished the game, but you've saved all of Coarsegold! Good shootin' Tex!
