REMEDIES FOR HIcCoU0H.-Accord-
ing to the Lyon Medicale, DIR. Grellety
has observed that hiccough in children
was Immediately stopped by giving
them lump of sugar saturated with
table vinegar. The same remedy was
tried on adults with similar instantane-
Gus success. Another remedy, which
may be considered even more handy,
was mentioned by Russian priest to
lady, and has always proved very eff
cacious 1t consists in simply looking
fixedly, for about five minutes, at the
blade Of Al open penknife, without

A GooD CuRR FOR CATARRH. A
good cure for catarrh is crushed cubeb
berries smoked in pipe, emitting the
smoke through the nose. After few
trials this will be easy to do. II the
nose is stopped up 30 that it is almost
impossible to breathe, ono pipeful will
make the mead as clear az bell. For
sore throat, asthma au:l bronchitis,
swallowing the snoEe effects immedi-
ate, relief. It is the be-; =, nedy n the
world for offensive breath, and will
make the most foul breath pure and
sweet. Sufferers from that horrid dis
ease. liberated catarrh. will find this
remedy unequaled, and months use
will cure tho most obstinate case. Eat
ing the uncrushed berries is also good
FOR sore throat and bronchial com
plants. After smoking do not expose
yourself to cold air for at least fifteen
minutes, and let the pipe be common
clay one, new and clean.
LOOK AT Your TONGUE. A man can
never be happy if his stomach is out Of
order; and dyspepsia, lysteria, initiate
the symptoms of innumerable disor-
ders. But how, the reader may ask,
can / tell the illness from which think
| am suffering be real or imaginary?
At any rate, I should answer, look to
your stomach first, and, pray, just take
glance at your tongue. If ever was
50 far left to myself as to mediate some
rash act, should, before going into the
matter, have look at my tongue. II
it was not perfectly clear and moist,
should not consider myself perfectly
healthy, nor perfectly sane, and would
postpone my proceedings, in the hope
that my worldly prospects would get
brighter. What does physician dis
cover by looking at the tongue? Many
things. The tongue sympathizes with
every triding ailment Of body or mind,
and more especially with the state of
the stomach. That thin, whitish layer
all over the surface most likely indi-
Gates indigestion. A patchy tongue
shows that tho stomach is very much
ont of order indeed. A yellow tongue
points to bilionsness. A creamy, shiv-
ering, thick, indented tongue tells of
previous excesses; and l do not like my
friends to wear such tongues, for sim
cerely believe that real comfort cannot
be secured in this world by any one who
does not keep his feet warm, his head
Sool. and his tongue clean.
