COLDS IN. THE HEAD-The recent
change in the weather has produced
many " dab bad colds" ," in the head.
A celebrated physician of France has
discovered new method of curing
this prevailing malady. Here is the
prescription:
1t consists in inhaling, through the
nose, the emanations of ammonia,
contained in a smelling bottle. IF
the sense of smell is completely oblit-
Grated, the bottle should be kept un-
der the nose until the punGency of the
volatile alkali is felt. The bottle is
then removed, but only to be reap
applied after a minute; the second
application, however, should not be
long, that the patient may bear it.
This easy operation being repeated
seven or eight times in the course Of
FIVE minutes, but always very rapidly,
except the first time. The nostrils
become free, the sense of smell is re-
stored, and the secretion of the irri-
tating mucus is stopped. The RENE
dy is said to be peculiarly advanta-
geous to singers.
