no better remedy than the above for

and II entirely safe. It may be used a.
often a. desired. and II . little Is swal-
lowed each time It will have bene-
fetal effect on the throat by cleansing
IL and allaying the irritation. In doses
Of one to four teaspoonsful, in half .
pint to q pint of tepid water It acts
promptly as an emetic, and, in cases Of
poisoning, Is always on hand. 1t is an
excellent remedy for bites and stings
Of insects. It Is a valuable astringent
In hemorrhages, particularly for bleed.
ing after the extraction Of teeth. It
has both cleansing and healing prop
critics, and 10 therefore most excellent
application for superficial alterations.
Mustard is another valuable remedy.
No family should be without 1t. Two
or three teaspoonfuls Of ground mustard
stirred into half pint Of water acts a.
an emetic very promptly. and is milder
and easier to take than salt and water.
Equal parts Of ground mustard and

treatment will relieve almost any case
of headache. A mustard plaster should
be moved about over the spot to be
acted apon. for il left in ono place it ID
liable to blister. A mustard plaster
acts as well when at considerable
distance from the affected part. An
excellent substitute for mustard plas-
ters is what is known as mustard
leaves" They come dozen in box,
and are about four by five inches. They
are perfectly dry. and will keep for a
long time. For use it is only necessary
to dip one in dish Of water for a

Common baking soda is the best Of
all remedies in cases of scalds and
burns. It may be used on the surface
of the burned place either dry or wet.
When applied promptly the sense Of
relief is magical. It seems to withdraw

healing process soon commencea It is
the best application for eruptions
caused by poisonous ivy and other poi

PREcocIous CHILDREN.
why Preooclty u . Thing to Ne Regrstts

why Precoclty u . Thing to 0o Regretted
Rather Than Encouragsd.
There are few parents who are not
pleased when their children show un-
usual brightness. Such children at
tract the notice and admiration Of
others, and minister to the vanity Of .
father or mother; but precocity in. .
child is q thing to be regretted rather
than encouraged. Few prscocious
children rise above the average in adult
life. Rather the tendency is to fall be-
low It During early childhood-say
the first seven years-the brain 10 Inn
perfect both in form and substance, and
any strain then put upon 1t IL at the
expense Of futore vigor.
One trouble ID that the brain Of such
. child tends Of itself to dangerous
activity; and another is that the fond
parent is almost sure, sometimes un.
consciously and sometimes purposely.
TO push It to the limit Of its power.
What the parent should do ID to hold
the child away from schools and
books and exhibitions. from talk
above its years. ana from admi1ng
friends, and to keep 1t down to childish
mates and sports, and simple, outdoor
activities. II 1t should not learn ito
letters until eight years Of age. 20 much
the better.
