A BOIL REMEDY.

BOIL REMEDY.
The skin of boiled egg is the most
e&cacious remedy that can be applied
to boil. Peel it carefully, wet and ap-
ply to the part affected. twill draw off
the matter and relieve the soreness in a
few hours.
RHEUMATISM.
In regard to the use of salicylate of
soda in rheumatism, DR.. Boulomie COM
municates to the Paris Academy of Med
icine some of the results of his recent in
vestigations. His more important con-
illusions are that it is in the case of young
men-patients who have not before un-
dergone attacks of govt, or who do not
present any tendency to nervous depres-
sion-that the sail 9ylate may be used
without danger; second, that it acts
chiefly by deadening pain; third, that in
thus treating acute articular rheumatism
in children, the salicylate is perfectly
well borne by them, even in daily dose
of six grains.
RYGIENIC RULES.
Avoid stimulants, alcoholic and mar
cotlc drinks, tobacco, and all pungent
spices; be sparing in the use of animal
food, especially in summer time; in mid
summer eat fruit with every meal; let
unprepared food fresh milk, fruits, etc. J
form a part of your daily fare; of unpre-
pared ailments, as well as of all unspiced
viands, the most palatable are the
most wholesome; eat slowly and masti-
cate your food; never eat if you have no
appetite, and finish your last meal three
hours before bedtlme.-Popular Science

HOW TO MANAGE A COUGH,
DIR. Thompson, distinguished Eng
ish physician, in little work on colds
and coughs, says: If we would know
how to manage cough, we must learn
how not to cough. The inclination to
cough should at any rate be suppressed
until the secretion, the existence of
which sets up the cough, is within reach:
full inspiration should now be taken.
and the accumulated phlegm is then re-
moved at a single effort; thus the NIL
cous surfaces are not causelessly irritat-
ed, and severe bronchial attack passes
easily through it's stages; whereas if the
membrane is irritated by violent and USE
less fits of coughing, it gets sore and re-

ing an epecacuanha lozenge on first
awaking, the dried secretion may be
loosened or easily expelled, and the
usual painful fit Of morning cough pre-
vented"
Pimples are occasioned by the torpid
state of the skin, or, in other words, by
the inability of the skin to perform its
proper functions. The cause of these
pimples is, therefore, neither more nor
less than an obstruction of the pores of
the skin; the perspiration being allowed
to accumulate, the mouths of the pores
become clogged, irritation ensues and a
pimple arises. The only way to be rid
OF them is to allow the skin to do it's own
work by preserving it in healthy con-
dition and keeping the system in good
order. The following ointment is rec
commended: Take an ounce of barley
meal (the finer the better), one ounce Of
powdered bitter almonds and sufficient
quantity of honey to make them into q
smooth paste. If you are taking medi-
cine for the blood adopt our advice and
place yourself in the hands of a compe-
tent physician.

CATCHING CoLD-Colds are generally
considered to be the exciting cause of very
large proportion of the diseases to which the
race is prone, and therefore any light upon
the subject is well worth considering. | have
known whole fami y to have severe colds in
their heads the day after dining on roast
goose, dish of which they were especially
fond. Since then have studied the subject
largely from a dietetc point of view, and
with great advantage. I had always enjoyed
good health, except that symptoms of dyspep-
sia were increasing in number and severity |;
for being good feeder" like all the world
about me, I ate as much as wanted of all the
good things found on Thanksgiving, Christ
mas and other festive occasions, together
with daily fare quite up to the standard.
1 soon found myself entirely exempt from
"colds" so long as I practiced intelligent
moderation in my diet, and kept clear of
pastry and all indigestible substances but
so sure as "let myself out" for few days 80
sure was I of having some sort of cold. |
found, however, that by skipping a meal or
two the severe symptoms speedily abatea, and
then moderation would effect complete cure.
Whether these so.called colds are simply evi.
dence of clogged system from over.indul-
gence, or from eating indigestibe substances,
or whether unhygienic living is only a pre-
disposing cause, and damp feet, carelessness,
atmospheric changes, &C., are the exciting
causes, are debatable questions. o.

SALT LAKE C1rY.-Salt Lake City, writes
correspondent, is, and is not, pretty city.
1t contains many fine buildings and beautiful
residences and grounds, but they are marred
by the proximity of tumble.down rookeries
and rickety shanties In passing along the
main street, the eye will be attracted by a
stately business block, standing isolated, but
for an old fashioned, whitewashed, one-story
adobe cuddled by its side. The adobe is q
relic of the old days. 1t does we'll enough as
reminiscence, but is unsightly, and detracts
from the appearance of its tall neighbor.
Pass along residence street, and you see a
gorgeous mansion, with beautifully laid out
grounds, with lawns and shrubbery, and Or
chards, all surrounded by handsome iron
fence of modern pattern, and in the grounds,
in full sight from the street, still stands the
old log cabin which was the home OF the
Mormon nabob who now occupies the mansion,
in the early days of the Territory, when he
followed the star Of fanaticism across the
plains in the wake of an OK team. All
through the city can be seen the landmarks
of those e; -ly days. In places, the remains
of the mud wall, thrown up as an entrench-
ment against the Indians; here log cabin,
green with moss and slime; there an adobe,
whose ancient origin the bright coat of white
wash intensi6es instead of conceals. The
streets of the city are broad, and in many of
them, instead of cutters next the sidewalk,
are bitches, through which runs stream of
pure, sparkling water. To this running wa
ter, passing continuously on each side of the
principal streets, is probably attributable the
excellent health of the city. | believe Brig
ham Young was the originator of these ditch
es, and that they were constructed under his
direction. Brig ham Young was sanitarian,
and spared no pains in securing health to his
people. He did not believe in DOCTORS but
had sanitary code of his own, which was
successful. Hard work and coarse food were
his laws of health, and more robust, hearty,
healthy set of people than the Mormon popu-
laton of Utah cannot be found.-Boston

THE HOMES OF AMERICA.

It is not a mere accident that the homes
Of America are the most comfortable and
comforting on earth. Nor are these home
comforts due simply to mechanical skill OF
economic judgment. A country which has
limited the powers Of its government stimu
lates society, and highly moral society pro
duces the most perfect homes which human
eyes or poetic visions can behold. No one
knows the American system we'll who does not
know the American home. Our political sys'
tenn is publicity itself; American society has
never been fully characterized; while the best
result of both, the perfect home, has been
praised in general terms, but not described
and explained in its true fullness. The novel
writers, from whom such descriptions might
be expected, have failed ignominouslyin their
attempts at showing the maturest results OF
our social system. Yet this system is unique,
and it is marked advance upon all Euro
pean models. The English home approaches
the American home, while the German home
approaches the English; but the ideal Ameri'
can home, not rarely realized, has comfort,
character and a dignity all its own. 1t
may seem to be wanting in the graces, tra-
ditions and responsibilities peculiar to the
best English homes; it surpasses them in
moral dignity it differs from all the others
in being the result of a highly refined civiliza-
ton it is the best and purest outcome of our
ethical system. There has been much pleas
ant banter about the greater American novel
that is to come Let it not dwell too much
on politics; British politics are larger than
ours. Let it not tell too much of busy peo.
pie; the French are as industrious and in
dustrial as we are. Let it not con6ne itself
to analysis of character or sentiment; other
nations have both in abundance Let it des
cribe the purest and sweetest of American
homes, and let it describe, not an ideal, but
that reality which distinguishes the American
home from all others, and shows it to be the
best outcome of our history, our political in
stitution and our social system.-Boston Ad
vertiser.

OUTSIDE TREEs.-Mr. Saunders, the hor-
ticulturist in charge of the public gardens
and grounds at Washington, who has observ-
ed that the outside rows Of trees in an orchard
always grow more thrifty than the interior
rows, is credited with making the following
suggestions That trees be set in two rows
twenty five to thirty feet apart, then space
of three hundred feet or more, and two more
rows of trees, and so on over the ground, the
intervening three hundred feet of ground to
be cultivated in such crops as may be desired,
and the space between the rows of trees to be
put in grass as soon as they begin to bear.
The cultivation of the ground would keep
the trees healthy, and conduce to their bear.
ing fruit The double rows of trees would
shelter the crops between and be beneficial
in that way.

The USE OF SUNFLowERs.-Many people
look upon the sunaower as simply worth.
less weed, and never dream Of the valua-
BILE qualities the seeds of this plant possess.
For several years they have been used by
breeders of fancy poultry as food for choice
birds. In small quantities, it is mixed With
the other food, and the peculiar properties Of
the seeds impart beautiful gloss which no
grain will give to the plumage of the adult
birds. For those who raise fancy fowls for
exhibition it is essential to perfect success
that the plumage should be in perfect con-
dtion, and to attain satisfactory results we
can recommend no more valuable aid than
judicious feeding of this seed. 1t has long
been known that oil extracted from sunAower
seed makes dressing for the hair which is
beneficial, imparting smoothness and vigor
highly appreciated by all who have tried it.
1t grows very readily, and the poultryman
should not forget this cheap, useful assistant
to his labors.-American Stockman.
