WHAT AN EGG WILL DO.

For burns and scalds nothing is
more soothing than the white of an
egg, which may be poured over the
wound. It is softer as y varnish for
burns than col!odion, and. being al
ways at hand, can be applied with
out delay. 1t is also more cooling
than sweet oil and cotton. which
were formerly supposed to be the
surest application to allay smarting
pain. It is the contact with the
air that gives the extreme discom-
fort experienced from the ordinary
accident OF this kind, and anything
that excludes tae air and prevents
Inflammation is the thing which
should be at once applied. The egg
is considered one of the best reme-
dies for dyseatery. Beaten up
slightly, with or without sugar. and
swallowed at a gulp, it tends, by its
emolient qualities, to lessen the In
Aammation of the stomach and in
testines. and by forming a transient
coating on these organs. to enable
nature to resume . healthful sway
over q diseased body. Two, or al
most three eggs per day, would b.
al that is required in ordinar!
cases; and since egg is not merel,
