uA writer in the Baltimore Sun, who has
been afflicted severely in his family by that ap-
pallng disease, bronchitis, has found relief from
the following remedy: "Take honey in the
comb, squeeze it out, and dilute it with little
water, and wet the lips and mouth occasionally
with it." It has never been known to fail in
cases even where children had throats so swol-
len as to be unable to swallow. 1t is certainly
a simple remedy, and may be very efficious
one.
