The Lemon.
Society Journal.

We have already given many uses OF
the lemon. Here are more: Lemonade
lis one of the best and safest drinks
for any person, whether in health or
not. It is suitable to all stomach dis
ease, is excellent in sickness-in cases
of iaundice, gravel, liver complaint, in
famation of the bowels and fever. 1t
is a specific against worms and skin
complaints. The pippins crushed may
also be used with water and sugar as a
drink. Lemon juice is the best ants
corbutic remedy known. 1t not only
cures the disease, but prevents it. Sail
ors make a daily use of it for this pur-
pose. A physician suggests rubbing the
gums daily with lemon juice to keep
them in health. The hands and nails
are also kept clean, white, soft and sup,
pie by the daily use of lemon instead oil
soap. 1t also prevents chilblains. Lem
on is also used in intermittent fevers
mixed with strong, hot black tea OF
coffee without sugar. Neuralgia may
be cured by rubbing the part affected
with a lemon. 1t is valuable also to
cure warts and to destroy dandrutf on
the head by rubbing the roots OF the
hair with it. In fact, its uses are man
fold. and the more we EN- ploy it exter,
nally, the better we shall find ourselves
