keep them whole when they are tender
take them out, and to each pound of
ounce add pound of white sugar; let
them stand with the sugar on until the

REMEDY FOR FELON.-Take the root
of the plant known as dragon root, Jack
in-the-pulpit, or Indian turnip, either
green or dry; CRATE about one-half a tea
spoonful into four tablespoonful of
sweet milk; simmer gently a few MIN
utes, then thicken with bread crumbs,
and apply as hot as possible. This can
be heated again two or three times, add
ing a little milk each time. If the felon
is just starting this will drive it back;
tifsomewhat advanced, it will draw it out
quickly and gently. 1t is well to put a
little tallow on the poultice, especially
after opening, to prevent sticking. This
same poultice is good for a carbuncle or
any other rising. z@ o. S
