Medical Properties Of Eggs.

The white of an egg has proved OF iate
the most eficacious remedy tor burns 5:
Seven or eight successful applications & OF
tbis substance soothes pain and efeetually
excludes the burned parts from the ar.
This simple remedy seems preferable to
co,lodion or even cotton. Extraordinary
stories are told of the healing properties OF
new oil which is easily made from the
volk of hens eggs. The eggs are hrst
boiled hard, and the yolks are then LenoS eu,
crushed, and placed over a fire, wheIe tney
are carefully stirred until the Whoie suo-
stance is just on the point Of catching nre;
when the oil separates and may be poured
off. One yolk will yield nearly TWO tea
spoonfuls of oil. 1t is in general use among
the colonists of South Russia as means OF
curing cuts, bruises, and scratches. -".
