How to Keep Down Flesh.
Plumpness is essential to perfect beauty.
| Fat is the opposite Of It. Science informs
us That to keep down flesh sassafras tea,
without milk, may be taken; likewise
cream Of tartar, making drink by pour
| Ing pint Of boiling water on q teaspoon
ful OF the tartar, letting it cool and
| havoring with lemon and little sugar.
| A draught Of this half an hour before
meals is a notable purifier of the blood,
| and an occasional dose Of epson salts,
| seltzer aperient or congress water may be
taken, but always with the advice of q
physician. One eminent physician recon-
mends the chewing Of a grain or two Of
roasted coffee to check abnormal craving
for food. Jellies of Iceland moss without

without making flesh; SO ere water crosses

Scrofulous and delicate girls should be
brought up on these simple but potent
relishes, together with carrots and pars-
nips, which last are tho best food for
quick and healthy plumpness. The rich
ness Of the milk Of Alderney cows is due
to long feeding on parsnips in the Chan
mel Island, and the finest and fairest chill
dren IN somc parts Of Scotland use it as o
daily food. Acarrot poultice is admira-
bic for softening the face, acting as a
purifier by absorption and mechanically
as . moist application. Thin, dyspeptic
girls, o. those With poor appetite, should
be given twelve drops Of acid phosphate

day, half an hour before meals, till they
feel hungry; then feed them on crusty
brown bread and mullins, with daily
change of tho sweet, succulent roots, be-
