A writer says: '' We are troubled
often with severe coughs, the result OF
colds Of standing, which may turn to
consumption or premature death. The
coughs cause sleepless nights by con
slant irritation in the throat and a
strong effort to throw off offensive mat
ter from the lungs. The remedy l pro-
pose has been tried by me, and recon-
mended by me with good result, which
is simply to take into the stomach, be-
fore retiring for the night, piece of
raw onion, after chewing. This escu-
lent in an uncooked state is very hea,-
ing, and collects the water from the
lungs and throat, causing immediate
relief to the patient"
